MET Gala 2018: Best dressed

Imagen
Yesterday, it was the first Monday of May. And that can only mean one thing...the MET Gala. It was also a Bank Holiday here but it's not as important, for whatever reason. And I thought I could tell you about my favourite outfits for the night, and while I was looking at the looks, I thought I would do a little countdown.  Ayer fue el primer lunes de Mayor, y eso solo puede significar una cosa...la gala del MET. También era festivo aquí, pero no es algo tan importante. Y pensé que os podía decir cuales fueron mis outfits favoritos de la noche, pero en una cuenta atrás.   -Madonna, Jean Paul Gaultier: It says a lot about the rests of the guests, and not in a good way, that Madonna was the only one wearing JPG. Because, you know, he only has hundreds of designs that fit the theme. It's no surprise that Madonna did well yesterday, because this is her look. She's done it a hundred times, and it looks natural on her. Dice mucho del resto de i...

Elsa Hosk for Bikbok

Imagen
Busy times!! I wish I could just sit and write all the posts that I have in my mind, but it's just impossible. But I wanted to add something this week, after missing wednesday's post. And...I have a really cool lookbook and collection to show you!! ¡¡Qué ocupada ando!! Me encantaría poder sentarme a escribir todas las entradas que tengo en mente, pero me resulta imposible. Igualmente quería escribir algo esta semana, para compensar el haberme saltado el miércoles. Y...tengo un lookbook de una colección genial para enseñaros.

Dewey's 24 Hour Readathon April 2018: Wrap up!

Imagen
The readathon is over! And it honestly was a lot of fun. I hadn't been reading too much lately, and it was great to be able to dedicate one day to just that.  Now let me tell you about the 546 pages I read. El maratón de lectura ha terminado. Y la verdad que lo disfruté mucho. Últimamente no había tenido tiempo para leer, y me encantó poder dedicar un día a hacer solo eso. Ahora dejadme que os cuente que me parecen las 546 páginas que leí.   -"We should all be feminists" & "Dear Ijeawele, A feminist manifesto in fifteen suggestions", by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. I gave 5 stars to both of these books. It was the first two I read, and I completely loved them.  I liked "We should all be feminists" a bit less, since it was more of general message. It made me think a lot, but I find "Dear Ijeawele..." to be more of my kind of message. As a feminist, I enjoyed both, but I found one more complete than the other. Highly rec...

Blanca Padilla for US Elle May 2018

Imagen
When you follow a model for years, many things happen. One of them is the fact that she's likely to improve as a model, so your favourite picture of her may change often.  I honestly don't know whether I have a favourite picture of Blanca or not, but I probably do. Well, now I definetely do, but it's a new one. On this editorial for the American edition of Elle, Blanca has created what I call an almost perfect picture. Blanca and the entire team, of course. From the hair, to the make-up, to the styling, to the photography, ...everything works.  Hans has a very recognizable style, and it is one that I love. Her picture wearing the yellow Marc Jacobs jumper is so iconic. Just look at every detail and try to find a flaw...I dare you! The rest of the editorial is good as well, but that picture...that picture is my new favourite picture of her. And I doubt it'll be overtaken by another one anytime soon. "High Tide" Ph: Hans Feuer ...

Romee Strijd for Exit Magazine SS 18

Imagen
I believe we have had this conversation before, but I love Romee's high fashion work. And that kind of makes it sound like I don't like her more commercial work, but that isn't what I mean. When I first fell in love with her, I saw her walking for Prada or Louis Vuitton, and it was her special beauty that I loved. I could already tell she was going to be versatile, but because of how special her beauty is, I want her to do things that showcase that beauty.  Long story short, this editorial for Exit Magazine made me very happy. Ph: Alexander Saladrigas Creo que ya hemos tenido esta conversación, pero me encanta que Romee haga cosas más high fashion. Y eso hace que suene a que no aprecio su trabajo más comercial, lo cual no es cierto. Cuando me enamoré por completo de ella, la veía desfilando para Prada o Louis Vuitton, y fue su belleza especial la que enamoró. Ya veía que podía ser muy versátil, pero debido a que su bellez...

Arizona Muse for Mango's "Committed Collection"

Imagen
Sustainable fashion is the new kind of fashion. Hopefully, we'll be able to see it grow and become the norm. Many highstreet brands have collections dedicated to this sort of fashion, and Mango's is called the "Committed Collection". I wanted to show them to you not only because of the cause, but also because the lookbook pictures are really beautiful. Arizona's beauty and her poses compliment the clothes really well. Ph: Alexandra Nataf La moda sostenible es el nuevo tipo de moda. Con suerte veremos que crece y que se convierta en la norma. Muchas marcas de bajo coste tienen colecciones dedicadas a este tipo de moda, y la de Mango se llama la colección "Committed". Quería enseñárosla no solo por la causa que apoya, sino también porque las fotos del lookbook son preciosas. La belleza de Arizona y sus poses son perfectas para estas piezas.
