Barcelona (day 1)

Todo empezó el sábado en Barajas cuando nos dijeron que gracias a ''nuestros queridos amigos'' los controladores aéreos, todos los vuelos estaban cancelados.
Entonces no nos lo pensamos y decidimos cambiar la rapidez del avión por las 8 horas del autobús.
Este es el principio de un viaje inolvidable, conocido ya como ''una serie de catastróficas desdichas''. 
De momento os enseño las primeras fotos que tomamos en alguna parte de nuestro amplio recorrido de 8 horas entre Madrid y Barcelona.


* Everything started last Saturday at the airport when we were informed that thanks to our 'dear' air traffic controllers all flights in Spain were cancelled.
So, we decided to change the comfort and speed of a plane for an 8-hours bus.
This is the beginning of an unforgettable trip, which is now known as 'a series of unfortunate events' (...another story for another post....), but for now, I'm going to show you the very first pictures we took in the middle of somewhere between Madrid and Barcelona, where the bus stopped for 15 minutes. 

...this place could be Poland.....don't you think?

To be continued...

Visit Clara and Laura for more!!!!

And stay tuned for the next!!!!!!

Once again, Thanks for your comments.

Gothicism

Well, when I saw the new theme Hypeed proposed a week ago, called Gothic chic, inspired by Givenchy SS2011, I had the need to document myself a little bit about it.
So, I watched the last show, read some interesting information about Riccardo Tisci, creative director of the Haute Couture, ready-to-wear and accessories lines for Givenchy and watched some interviews and videos. 
And, This is why I love Givenchy SS 2011.

 black, sheer maxi skirts and dresses, zips...

 gothic and religious touch

 black + leopard print

black + white

And then, yesterday, Clara and I took some photographs about this Gothic theme at her place. 

Dress - H&M

Sheer Skirt - Adolfo Domínguez

Shoes - H&M

I really love this pic I took of GorgeousClara.

* And now my question,

  What do you think about Givenchy SS2011?

  Love or hate?

Hope all of you had a great weekend!!

Once again, thanks for stopping by!!

Flaming Flea Market & Friends

Hace dos semanas mi querida Rosana celebró un mercadillo vintage en su casita. 
Fue una tarde perfecta: ropa vintage, buena música, muchos dulces, pujas... pero sobretodo buenísima compañía.


** Two weeks ago my dear Rosana celebrated a flea market in her place. 
It was the perfect afternoon: vintage clothes, good music, lots of sweets, biddings.... but the best was the people I met there. 

momento disfraz....

GRACIAS ROSANA!!!!

By the way, If you don't know her, don't think it twice and visit her online store and blog!!

Beba's Closet

...todo comenzó allá por septiembre de 2010,

eran las 12.30 de la mañana de un nublado viernes...

Beba’s Closet fue mi primer desfile y todos sabemos que el primero es algo mágico y especial.

El jueves pasado Clara y yo pudimos conocer el  atelier de Belén Barbero, 

el alma de Beba’s Closet.

Allí estaban Belén y Carolina, majísimas y con las que descubrimos este pequeño rinconcito del centro de Madrid llamado Beba’s Closet.

Fue increible poder redescubrir de la mano de Belén todos esos detalles que no pudimos apreciar bien durante el desfile.

Linos, rafias, botones artesanales de madera y laca, cinturones de cuerda de cáñamo, volantes…

‘'La colección Primavera Verano 2011 de Beba’s Closet es el resultado inevitable de esas colecciones de fotos familiares, de esas montañas de recuerods que provocan los veranos de la infancia y de la fuerte influencia de una mujer que consiguió transmitirle a Beba esa passion por los detalles más delicados, por la pureza de los veranos de antes, sencillos y auténticos, los buenos veranos…’’

Desde quiero dar las gracias a Belén por abrir las puertas de su maravilloso taller y a Carolina por acordarse de nosotras.

All pictures taken by me.

...This is Halloween....

Las únicas fotos decentes que tuvimos de Halloween fueron en mi casa. Y es que al final no aguantamos mucho por ahí, el cansancio y la cantidad de gente que había en el Inde pudieron con nosotros.
Ya no somos como antes... Nos hacemos mayores.


The only decent Halloween pics were taken at home. We don't have any party pics because we were really tired and there was a lot of people at Independance so we decided not to get inside.
So, some of us went home and rest....
...We are not kids anymore...

...Beetlejuice...

...That's me as Lydia Deetz... 

...Clara as the Purple Lady (long and scary story)

...Clara R. as The Clockwork Orange...

Dress - Found at Coco vintage

Rings - H&M and Primark

Hope all of you had a great Halloween night.
