I Wear My Heart on the Outside

He said: She builds walls not to keep you out, but to see if you love her enough to climb over, instead of walking away.
She didn't say anything and things went silent!
One year later, she stopped building walls, she started talking.
Now...I Wear My Heart on the Outside! I love you!

This is part of a larger project I'm doing now, called Feelings. And (no big surprise) the first one was about love...
Also, this photoshoot was made especially for Kinema Ikon.

Now, we did the shooting right next to the Absolutely Fabulous Fashion&Vintage fair, last weekend. The model was Ana-Maria Morodan (High Street Cardigans) and she just rocked the coat!

About the coat. Well, more on the site soon! Until then. Just start wearing your heart on the outside!Images: ArinaVarga

A Girls Weekend

Well, this weekend I was in Bucharest, at the Absolutely Fabulous Fashion&Vintage fair. Loads of fun with the girls, loads of stuff happened, met loads of new people. But, since I don't have any photos (yes...soon maybe) I won't say more for now. Just that it was FABULOUS!

Until then, please enjoy this very soft photo-shoot, by David Francisco.From: TrendHunter

About the LOVE

Those who know me personally, know I have a saying:
It's all about the LOVE!

No matter if there are problems or happy times, the reason (as far as I go) is LOVE. For me, it was all good, then all bad and then...pufff. Let's just say confusing and leave it like that! Now, I found my inspiration in it. So, made it into reality, had a little photoshoot with Ana-Maria Morodan and soon (this week) I will show you the result. Keep in mind, it's a soul-project!

Round, and Round, and Round it Goes

...when it will stop, nobody knows!
The photos are part of a shooting for Diva Magazine, by photographer Susanne Stemmer. Magical, playful and at the same time...in the dark! (love it when contrasts connect perfectly like this)

As far as the Marry-go-Round...what can I say? Life is just like that! Especially for the ones that work for/in the fashion industry. It's all picture-perfect, but sometimes too perfect to be real. It's all just an image, just stressed people... even so. The world of fashion keeps going round, and round, and...From: TrendHunter

Hair it BIG!

It's been a while since the afro was popular, but starting with spring-summer 2011 it will be a must! Again, the phrase the bigger the better is going to work and I couldn't be happier! I just love this look and I'm sure it will go fantastic with my red hair!As shocking as it may sound, I'm sure this trend will catch with most long-haired fashionistas! The overall image being just too cool to resist!

Gabriela Mot Illustations

I'm always happy to write about people I know, because they are fantastic! Today, I bring you Gabriela Mot! Actually, you've met her before, but as a fashion designer-> here!

Now, you might remember she was in my fashion-design class at University, in Timisoara. So I know her well enough to tell you that her illustrations are amazing! Just look at the lines, the position of the model...all is perfect! I really can't wait to see more of her work! Surely, this young lady is going to go places! From: Gabriela Mot

Optimum Optimus Prime Ring

BLING BLING YOU DECEPTICON-FASHIONISTAS!!!

Pencil vs. Camera

For a while now we didn't have a "Meet..." post. So it was high-time to do one. And no better occasion (or character) then Ben Heine!!! So, fashion lovers and art passionate, meet Ben Heine!

I guess he knows himself better then anybody else , so here is what he had to say:

I'm a Belgian painter, illustrator, portraitist, caricaturist and photographer. I was born in Abidjan, Ivory Coast and currently live and work in Brussels. I studied graphic arts and sculpture and I also have a degree in journalism. I have 8 years of professional experience as a graphic creator.

Not too much information, but his works speak by themselves! His art is a mix of classic photography, with the classic technique of drawing, that results in a fun and playful work! If the real world isn't the way we want to, why not just take a pencil and change it?! :))

Can I Get a Spock Hand?

Now, how cool is this zipped-up hoodie from threadless? :))) Just the perrrfect thing for that geek craving I seem to be suffering of lately.
So, you can keep it cool and straight with strangers and wide and opened with your friends (the true ones, that agree with your Star Trek philosophy)!From: threadless

Tagging Walls of Paper

Here comes from Quirk Books, author Sherwood Forlee, a notebook like no other! The Walls Notebook! It's made out of 160 pages of blank, clean walls (back from the 80s, so you'll get a true graffiti feeling), just waiting for you!

After the Fashionary, this is the notebook that really made we twitch! Fun, but not really for me :)) Even so, I think it would be great to own one! Plus, for a street artist, it should be fantastic!From Urban Outfitters, the.

Hobbies

We all like to do different thing to relax. But these days it's getting harder and harder to find stuff that really can make you disconnect, or to find the time to do so.

I like to do needlework! Ok ok...now please do stop laughing! It took a lot of guts for me to come clean here! Yes...me, theFword have the hobby of a grandmother! ;))) The point is, it's something that makes me forget about everything!

Now, what do you do to relax? What dirty little secret are you hiding! Pls share!!! ;)))
The image above, is my work -> special oder and gift for a person very dear to me, that I love a lot! See? I share!
