Jeepers Creepers!

Imagine how your life would be in London during the 50's...

 Teddy boys and girls photographed by Ken Russell.

Now imagine you are back in June 2007 and 

you see this editorial from Vogue Nippon.

Any similarities??

I can't stop thinking about that movement called the Teddy boys

and all its influence on future cultural movements, such as the mods, rockers...

During the 1970's, rockabilly music gained a lot of popularity 

and showed a great interest in the Teddy Boy style. 

The look was taken up by Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm McLaren

 through their shop 'Let it Rock' on London's Kings Road. 

And now thanks to brands like Dolce&Gabbana, 

Prada, Sonia Rykiel, Comme des Garcons...

the revival of that age is possible, 

and the return of the creepers is now a reality.

We've been seing them a lot during this summer in blogs, magazines...

but the thing is they were always here, they never disappear...

And these are my favourite creepers.

What do you think? Do you like them?

Would you wear them?

Flaming 80's Flea Market & Friends

Photographs by Andrea

Photographs by me

Last Saturday Rosana celebrated her birthday 

and a Flaming, 80's inspired, Flea Market.

A perfect afternoon full of friends, vintage, sweets and a chocolate cake.

It's not the first time she organises a flea market in her place,

I think it was the fourth time!!

Rosana is the owner of Demode Vintage, a vintage online store.

Don't miss it!!

El sábado pasado Rosana celebró su cuarto

 y ya famoso Flaming 80's Flea Market & Friends.

Esta vez era diferente ya que también celebrábamos su cumpleaños.

Fue una tarde genial llena de amigos, vintage, comida rica y tarta de chocolate.

Si no conocéis a Rosana, ya podéis echar un vistazo a su web,

y empezar a comprar porque tiene cosas increíbles.

New Red Hair in Town

Quick update to show you my new hair colour!!

I've always had brown hair, and I liked it, 

but last Halloween as part of my costume (remember???),

I decided to get my hair dark, soooooo dark.

I was really tired of black at the end, so my mum helped me lighten it.

After having some colour-hair problems, everything turns up really cool.

What do you think? Yay or nay?

Post rapidito para enseñaros mi nuevo color de pelo!!

Siempre he sido castaña, pero el pasado Halloween 

decidí teñirlo suuuuper oscuro como parte del disfraz.

Al final me cansé y hace unos días mi madre me ayudó a aclararlo un pelín,

 después de varios tintes y colores diferentes, éste es el resultado final.

Creo que no ha quedado tan mal no?

Qué os parece?

Sometimes pictures are worth a thousand words.

La Croisette, Teresa Helbig s/s 2012

All pictures taken by me.

La Croisette, famoso paseo de Cannes, es el escenario de esta colección. Prendas con aires sesenteros y con ese acento francés tan propio de los veranos en la Costa Azul. Como bien dice la diseñadora, los tonos son los de siempre, blancos y beiges, pero por primera vez arriesga incluyendo morados, amarillos y verdes esmeralda. Los vestidos largos, vaporosos y ultra femeninos vuelven otra vez y tan bonitos como los del año pasado, ¿os acordáis?. Mis preferidos los verdes, tanto el que llevó Marina Pérez como el de Carmen Kaas, que además me recuerdan al de Keira Knightley en Expiación. 

Como siempre una de mis colecciones preferidas, y es que Teresa Helbig nunca defrauda.

La Croisette, the famous boulevard in Cannes, is the scenery of this collection. Clothes with that retro feeling and that French accent typical of the Blue Coast summers. The color palette varies from white and beige to purple, yellow, pink and emerald green. Long, light and feminine dresses appear again, like last year's collection, do you remember it? My favourite are the wonderful green dresses Carmen Kaas and Marina Perez wore in the show, they remind me to much of the green one Keira Knightley wore in Atonement. 

As always, this has been one of my favourite collections, Teresa Helbig never disappoints you.

Mañana sigo con las fotos de cibeles, tengo muchísimas y voy con retraso!

I've got tons of pictures from Cibeles Madrid Fashion Week and I'm running a bit late, so I'll post them asap!!
