the Entitled Bully - the story

Here they are, the photos and the story:

Act 1.
The world was mine.
Everything I ever wanted was there for me. I was daddies little girl, the Sweetheart, the best friend, the loved one. Nothing could ever stop me, because life was a dream!

Act 2.
Things started to change.
Responsibilities were piling up, friends became enemies, hearts started to brake. In all that mess, I began to fall deeper and deeper, without seeing a way out. The world was turning against me.

Act 3.
I didn’t break.
Even if the fall was deep and hard, somehow I managed to pull myself back and started to recover. I surrounded myself with everything important for the soul and started on the long way of rediscovering myself.

Act 4.
I am the result of my life experiences.
In the end, it’s good. It’s not fantastic, it’s not super. It’s good. I am surrounded by positive and negative things all the time and I accept that. Because that’s just the way life is. And after all I’ve been through, on any giving occasion I will fight back. Now, I am the ‘Entitled Bully’

the Entitled Bully - lookbook

We are the story of our own adventures.
Life is crazy with its ups and downs, and all we can do is sit tight, enjoy and sometimes, fight back.

We start believing in innocence, in the fact that the world is ours and we can basically do whatever we want.
Then life catches up with us and reality hits. It’s brutal. It’s hurtful.
We gather ourselves and our broken heart and we start the heeling process. It will take time, it will take friends, books, teas, wine…but in the end, we will come out as conquerors.
And maybe, because we have survived with dignity and pride, some will try to pull as back. That’s the moment when we’ll become entitled bullies!

(more on the story soon…)

the Marimekko World of Colors

Nothing makes me happier then a good splash of color!

It's just like a drug for me and sincerely now...I take overdoses almost everyday! And there's nothing wrong with that + the Marimekko brand would more then agree on that statement!

On this occasion (me admitting my addictions) meet: Marimekko!!!
Ta-da-daaa-dam!
Their world is simply amazing! I want to move there and have a family, own 2 flamingos and ride bicycles on a velvet sky! The thing that I love the most is the incredible equilibrium the have with colors. And that's a very hard thing to do when you're playing with more the 3 colors (for some, even 2 is too much). Think about it. They have strong colors, all put together and on top of that, they mix different prints.
Marimekko team, I take my hat off to you. You are great, your work is fantastic and I absolutely love the world you created!

In 1962 Armi Ratia, the founder of Marimekko, defined Marimekko as "a cultural phenomenon guiding the quality of living". She built a utopia called Marikylä ("Marimekko Village"), whose aim was no less than to house the staffs and to function as a laboratory for product design and to develop new ways of life. This year Marimekko will bring to life the Marimekko Village of today.

To find out more about this Finnish brand, go to the Marimekko site. There, you'll see the team and their work + get to know more about them.

Below, you can see images from the ss//2013//lookbook.
Enjoy!

Read Between the Lines

As it is in life...

Not all is black or white.
Not everything is made from perfect lines.

There is perfection in intended imperfections. And to see this beauty, one must learn to read between the lines, to see things beyond the simple shapes, to learn that there's more then what the eye can gather!

Absolutely Fabulous - X-mas Edition

Yes, the weekend that just went by, was an Absolutely Fabulous one! I told you all about it on facebook but didn't had the time to chat about it here.
But most of you came to see me and I was sooo happy with your surprise! :***

Sadly I don't have many images (yes yes, I'm getting old and lazy) so I'm using the ones that Fabian Tatomirescu took. Also, the few ones I took, here! I promise next time to put more effort into all this. ;))

Well, beside the fact that I was crazy tired and cold, it was great! I got to meet a few new and talented designers, I chatted with the older ones that I get to see so rarely and (my favorite part) I got to meet with my clients! Oh, love them all so so much because they are (BELIEVE ME) adorable!

Home, it snowed a lot. So, winter is here, Christmas is almost here and the deadline to all those holiday dresses is getting closer! So, back to work! :***And an image with the two of us, tired and hungry:
