G-Star Women's Night

Last Wednesday I went to the G-Star Women's Night in their shop in Madrid.

I have to admit it's one of these shops I rarely visit,

 in fact it was my first time, 

but I had the opportunity to see the collection,

and there were some pieces that caught my eye.

Among those pieces were the boots, jackets, parkas and knit cardigans.

It was a night full of clothes, music, sushi (delicious!!) and the best company.

El miércoles pasado fui a la G-Star Women's Night 

en su tienda de la calle Mayor en Madrid.

Tengo que admitir que es de esas tiendas a las que rara vez voy,

 de hecho fue mi primera vez.

Una vez allí tuve la oportunidad de ver la colección

 y algunas cosas me llamaron especialmente la atención.

Lo mejor las botas, cazadoras, parkas y chaquetas de punto.

Como siempre una noche genial llena de ropa, música, sushi y la mejor compañía.

These are the gifts they gave to us: October issue of Harper's Bazaar, a cd, an agenda, a necklace and a little lookbook. 

THANKS!!

Boy like

Kind of reinterpretation of a Teddy boy.

I found this pair of pseudo-mary jane-creepers last week

lost in my garage,

they were one of my favourite shoes as a teenager.

Encontré el otro día esta especie de creepers en mi garaje,

me las solía poner un montón hace años.

A raíz del último post decidí hacer mi propia versión 

de un Teddy boy y me vinieron que ni pintado!

Hope you like it!

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.

Creepers above from Underground via Asos, Topshop and Romwe.

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.
