Put on a Chic face

I was looking through my bookmarks to see which ones I could get rid off when I saw the one for this editorial. I saved it months ago to feature it on the blog. Needless to say I forgot about it. Mathilde is stronger on print that she is on the runway (measurement issues), and this ed is one of my favourites from her portofolio. Carte blanche Estaba mirando todo lo que tenía guardado en marcadores para poder borrar lo que no necesitaba cuando vi este editorial. Lo guardé hace meses para compartirlo en el blog, y sobra decir que luego me olvidé de el. Mathilde brilla más en fotografía de lo que brilla en pasarela (cosas de medidas), y este edito es uno de mis favoritos de todos los que ha hecho.

I'm a curious person, in general. And when it comes to fashion, I'm super curious all the time. Ever since I started to follow this world (almost 10 years ago), I craved knowing more about it. Everytime I saw something or someone that was new to me, I had to do some research to get more information. However, it's been different lately. My lack of time to do this kind of thing for fun has made me lazy. Or what I understand for lazy, which is probably different for you. "I had a super lazy day today. I only worked for 4 hours, studied for 2 hours and spent the rest of the day reading", that's a real quote. So, when I started to see this "Chaos" brand being featured everywhere, I thought that it was just another one of those new brands. Then I was reading one of those supplements that come with the newspaper and I saw there was an article about it, and that's when my curiosity came back. I read the article and found out Charlotte Stockdale (a...

Sanne Vloet Third and final post about who will walk the show. You may notice someone is missing in this list, but I'm not going to be including any models whose agency haven't confirmed nor denied her presence. If you follow the show, you'll know who I mean ;) Excited to see Kate, Kendall and Sanne back. I'm also looking forward to seeing Luma on the runway. Tercera y última entrada sobre quien desfilará este año. Puede que notéis que falta alguien, pero no voy a incluir a ninguna modelo cuya agencia no haya confirmado o denegado su presencia. Si seguís el tema de cerca, sabréis a quien me refiero ;) Me alegra ver a Kate, Kendall y Sanne otra vez. Y me apetece ver como desfila Luma. Kate Grigorieva (Russia, The Lions) Keke Lindgard (Hawaii, Women) Kelly Gale (Sweden, The Society) Kendall Jenner (USA, The Society) Lais Oliveira (Brazil, Next) Lameka Fox (USA, IMG) Leomi Anderson (UK, Fusion Models) ...

Bella's instagram Bodyshaming is something that has always been a part of my life. Ever since I was a little girl, I've been judged because of how skinny I am. It still happens but, I couldn't care less now. It still hurts to talk about it, though. However, we have to talk about it to show how not ok it is to do that. Whether it is mocking someone who's overweight or someone who's underweight, it is not ok. When it was announced that Bella was Nike's new spokesmodel, a lot of people went crazy. They thought she couldn't be the face of this brand because she doesn't look athletic. Fair enough, I may agree with them on that one but I don't look athletic either and I buy Nike stuff, so...she kind of represents me, right? The other complaint was that she's too skinny. Because, you know, skinny women (and men) don't buy stuff from Nike and/or practise any kind of sport (and/or are real). Back to bodyshaming. We want all sizes an...

In order to succeed in the fashion industry, you need a few things. And one of those is support. When it is Anna Wintour/US Vogue supporting you, things are way easier. And Maria Grazia has a crazy amount of support, that she deserves because of her talent. This editorial is another bit of support that she's getting directly from Wintour, but it is also a great editorial, so I had to show it to you. The photo with Grace and Taylor is one of my favourites ever. "Not your mother's Dior" Ph : Patrick Demarchelier Models : Grace Hartzel, Grace Elizabeth, Imaan Hammam, Taylor Hill, Fernanda Ly & Lineisy Montero Para triunfar en el mundo de la moda, se necesitan un par de cosas. Y una de ellas es apoyo. Cuando es Anna Wintour/US Vogue quien te apoya, todo es más fácil. Y Maria Grazia ha recibido una cantidad increíble de apoyo, que se merece por su talento. Este editorial es otra manera de apoyarla, y viene directamente de Wintour. P...

As you may have noticed, I don't really talk about Vogue covers anymore. And that is because I feel like they aren't as exciting as they used to be, and I feel like I just repeat myself. But I do see covers that deserve to be mentioned. When I saw this image, I felt that way. I had to share it with you, since you were likely to miss it. I mean, not many people check Vogue Korea's cover every month, right? Even I don't. I believe this is Jean's first Vogue cover, though I could be wrong. I quite like her, but at the same time I can't see myself becoming a fan. It's a funny feeling. Do you like the cover as well? Puede que hayáis notado que ya no hablo de las portadas de Vogue. Y eso es porque siento que ya no son especialmente interesantes, y que me repito una y otra vez. Pero si que veo portadas que merecen ser mencionadas. Cuando vi esta imagen, tuve esa sensación. La tenía que compartir ya que muchos no la ibais a ver. Seamos sinceros, no hay m...

Grace Elizabeth I've divided the rest of the models who will walk for the VSFS in two. Here's part 1! I'm really excited to see Grace on the show, she's gorgeous. Camille and Irina are quite unexpected choices, but I'm curious to see them on the runway. They may be "too" sexy for it, but it'll be interesting to see them there. Izabel should bring her boyfriend to the show, so she doesn't feel alone. Really, google Kevin Trapp and you'll know what I mean. You're welcome, by the way. I'll link you to a video I uploaded yesterday with my thoughts about the whole casting =) He dividido al resto de modelos que desfilarán para VS en dos. ¡Aquí está la parte 1! Tengo muchas ganas de ver a Grace en el desfile, es preciosa. Incluir a Camille e Irina ha sido inesperado, pero tengo curiosidad de verlas en la pasarela. Puede que sean "demasiado" sexies para ello, pero será interesante. Izabel tiene que llevar a su novi...
