Amongst The Bohemians

Another Vanessa Bell inspiration. Harper Baazar's photoshoot in Charleston.

When I first saw the front page I wished it was a book about fashion and life in Bloomsbury, but... well. That's good enough :)

THAT BAG...

Welcome to Charleston

Reading Susan Seller's Vanessa&Virginia, made me think of interior design. Lots of detailed descriptions of Vanessa's decor. I want to see it. I'm in love.

Desert Rose

From her voice to her name, from her words to her hair...

Sometimes I just wish I could look and sing like this. Seem to be so independent and spiritful.

Crystal Castles

i'm the crystal

i'm the light

inextinguishable and bright

i put my heart forth

on the pavement of life

the ground of commons

the soil of source

i charge through darkness

for wherever i go

i recalibrate the field

transmuting absence into presence

divine fireworks on earth

my body my crystal my faith my guidance

a universe of color in an opal's prime

my life's my joy

my art my service my peace my love

unfolding

now

Novemberly Rimelry

Art of Rimel Neffati.

Her works have something really november-ish.

I got lost in that photo. It's not so easy for me to find a spirit in old photos. With all the imagination, it's rarely a success to "feel" those people from their portraits. But not this time. Lady Eisenhower is so real for me.

Back to bag

Long time no fashion, so it's a moment for it!

As I mentioned some time ago, being 22 and changing rapidly is making a woman out of me. Which means a gradual STOP for any fashion and beauty choices that do not really fit me. For example, today, I said goodbye to all the nail laquers in shades that totally stands out from my beauty type (yeah, mamma was telling me that for ages... but you have to experience everything by yourself, right?). So bye bye to a strange pinky-orange and aggressive green...
Making my own money and suffering from lack of it too quickly each month, made me think also about spending funds wisely, on things that are good quality and fits me perfectly. I tended to buy lots of cheap stuff, which I was throwing out after one use or one wear. No more of that.

Today I ran into and old issue of Frankie Magazine and found a lovely item that perfectly answers my need to buy good and beautiful things. Unfortunately, the brand is closed by now, but I think I will post about it anyway, with hope that they will soon make something creative again.
