Comme des Garcons & Speedo

Well, this is a strange combination (as far as I'm concerned). I never expected it, but after seeing the results, I must wave the thumbs up and say: Great Job! The collection (or we should say collaboration) resulted in two types of designs:
Logo Script, which sees a Speedo twist to a CdG classic handprint - the iconic Speedo graphic in repetition, forming a distinctive pattern. Available in black & white and red & white.

Tie Dye, an on-trend effect yet rarely seen in swimwear, executed to dramatic effect. Available in two colours, the first print mixes a palate of radiant yellows, cotton candy and sushi red on a red base to create a vibrant glow; whilst the second is a fusion of smoky black and cinnamon, with streaks of electric blue on a black base.From: Speedo

In Their Secret Life

Us (everyday, normal, boring humans) have always been interested in the secret life of super-heroes. Who are they, after all the ladies had been saved and after the world survives to live another day?Well, we all think it's all glamor. But what if THEY are just like us? Dulce Pinzón shows us just how this normal life of super heroes would look like!From: Dulce Pinzón

Why You Should Keep Buying Souvenirs:

This is the work of photographer Michael Hughes. The idea behind this project is very simple, but the effect and the execution is fantastic.
Plus, it's fun to see those useless souvenirs put to a use! I just love this photo collection! If you want to see them all, visit the photographer's Flickr album!From: WebUrbanist

He's OK!

Well, most of you (those whom are not from Romania) might not understand what I'll be talking about. But please bear with me!

I've just found out that Cristi Minculescu (lead singer in the rock band Iris) survived a very difficult liver surgery. I won't get into more details, because it doesn't matter any more. He's fine!

Why is he so important to me? Because I've grown up with he's band music. I grow up with Iris. And even though I'm no longer such a big fan, they still have an important place in my heart.

But enough with the soapy staff. I wish him all the best and to get well soon! So, this being a fashion blog, here are a few old photos of Cristi and Iris. ohhh...to be young and restless....
