REPOST: FASHIONSPAM RECOMMENDS ¬ OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES

I just remembered that I had this post few months ago..I have no idea why I posted in on 6th of January, because it's definitely a 'summer post'..Anyway, it took me 15 minutes to find it, I added 3 more videos (seems like I love cliff jumping. who doesn't anyway?!) so you better take at least 10 minutes to briefly watch some of the videos! 

'outdoor activities ¬ good for the heart!
this is what we call fun!'

THEY SAY AN END CAN BE A START!

STOLEN BY MATERIAL DESIRES!

'Those whose intelligence has been stolen by material desires surrender unto demigods and follow the particular rules and regulations of worship according to their own natures.' (Bhagavad-gita As It Is Chapter 7 Verse 20)

Oh, I plead guilty!


Sometimes material desires have a spiritual aspect!

For example:  'The Cry' by Russell Young  is not just the perfect accessory for my living room! It represents the materialization of my my spiritual desire and passion for Marilyn Monroe, ever since I first saw her! Tadaaam!

I could have made up a story for each picture that follows, unfortunately I just got a call and I really have to go! Maybe I will re-edit the post when I return! Meanwhile, have some nice hours, have some lattes, espressos, macchiatos or whatever you enjoy the most! love

LOUIS VUITTON PRE-FALL 2012!

We have this say in Romanian: 'The thrifty man builds his cart in winter, and his sledge in summer.'
Or something like that..Maybe it exists in other languages too, but I doubt so. People nowadays buy stuff!
So, combining the two theories, I came to the following LV conclusion: before the harsh winter arrives 
(hopefully it will find me in Rio, and the entire equation changes) anyway, 'back to our sheep' 
(another funny Ro say) my point was: this summer I need to buy my sledge, I mean coat, sheepskin LV coat 
(What a weird post, wtf! Sorry, must be the several iced coffees I drink daily + the 500 different Olympic 
games I watch everyday) Tadaaam! Enjoy this summerish Louis Vuitton Pre-Fall 2012 Collection!

OLYMPICS INSANITY 2012!

Dear followers, 


As you do (not) know, these days are just about the Olympic Games for us! So for the next 16 days or so, less fashion(spam), art, music and more spooorts! As follows, we support: Romania, Spain & the rest of 10 countries (or more)  + the 3 or 4 independent participants that we have never ever heard about! (If you think you're smarter, tell us what you know about Djibouti, Eritrea, Guam, Kiribati, Lesotho and so on..yeap, these are participant countries!)


Anyhow, between Rowing, Judo & Gymnastics, we will keep you updated not with the results, but with the latest cool stuff in fashion(spam)!


Have a nice Olympics Day 1 & good luck to your countries & favourites!

Appreciate textiles!

MORNING MUSIC, SUCH A MYSTERY!

This song..definitely not something I would listen on a Saturday/Sunday afternoon after a busy week,
or any other afternoon/evening at all. I have no idea who they are*, what they say* or mean to say*..
But feels so good on a Thursday morning, while enjoying my new passion (frappuccinos)! Enjoy!


*I saw this few minutes after I clicked 'publish'. Apparently "Popcaan's "The System" is an epic, conscious song over Dre Skull's 
"Loudspeaker Riddim" that sees the young deejay describing the trials and struggles of ghetto youth in the face of the system." 
And if you like it thaaat much, you can also buy it on itunes!

ART & FEMINITY: AZZEDINE ALAÏA & ELIE SAAB!

Glamour, Sensuality, Style, Cut, Self-Confidence and the list can go on forever.
Few of the words I would use to describe my two favourite couturiers Azzedine Alaïa and Elie Saab..
They still draw their own patterns with chalk, show their collections when, how and where they feel like, 
and most important, managed to survive the corporatist fashion world.

I won't 'spam' you with pictures or youtube shows, you can find those with a simple google search. 
I just wanted to remind/let you know that few real couturiers still 'exist' and they do amazing jobs..

 Alaïa, monograph by François Boudot (New York: Assouline, 2007), showing Alaïa
and opera singer Jessye Norman in the costume he designed for her for the Bicentennial of the French Revolution
Elie Saab - PFW - Ready To Wear - Fall/Winter 2011 - Show
The article may seem a bit too 'long' for those who follow my regular 'street style' posts, 
but way too short for those who appreciate the art of fashion and the last real designers!

MOMENT OF 'FASHION WISDOM'!


 There is this thing about fashion..you can look at it as expensive pieces of cloths and 'arrogant' people
 who pay ridiculous amounts of money to buy them or..you can try to understand how and why someone created 
those pieces, what is the meaning behind every chosen print, colour, shape , why do they cost so much, 
and why do some people pay that money to buy them..it's up to you..you can continue being an ignorant prick, 
or you can start appreciating and enjoying fashion more, as an art!

It's long list, but we will post just a couple of them, enough to keep your dancing shoes on this week!

SAY 'NO WAY' TO SEXISM!

"I dress for the image. Not for myself, not for the public, not for fashion, not for men."
probably the only answer & the right answer!

So, as we received 'many, many' complains about our 'sexist' posts lately, today everything is about you, pretty ladies! 
Stay tuned, more street style coming, good music & a special post about our two favourite couturiers (surprise, surprise)!
