Vivienne Westwood, is always great, mixing up patterns and crazy colours putting them together as a special character, the shoes are incredible, those loafers got me, also de look-a-like baggy trousers which have this volume in the top and then they're skinny at the end, rich colours and denim, very wearable, very chic and bohemian.

Jil Sander, another of my highlights for MFW, high waist shorts, shinny fabrics, very dark, clean look. Sophisticated takes me to the 90's in some parts of the show, with lovely shoes.

Prada, full of colour this season, I couldnt process the shoes at first sight but then I ended up loving then, fun prints and great bags/accesories.
Mcqueen, its bit differnt this seaons I felt it very chic but very casual at the same time, if we compare with previous collectios who are more detailed and impecccably executed.
Moschino, rockabilly by excellence, always love the looks, something I could wear everysingle day non stopping, great shoes, cardigans, colour palette, sporty jackets.

Burberry, colourfull, fun, I just love it

Damir Doma SS 2011

2011-05-23T14:22:00.005-06:00

Damir Doma is one of my favourite fashion designers, its very aesthetic @ my point of view.
From Croatia but based in Paris, as many of you might know already.

“A new control emerges in the reverent uniforms of the scorched earth. From a cloistered existence, a gentleman walks through mineral landscapes.” source

Today I saw the photos from his store at Paris and I found it very amazing, everything's very industrial and clean at the same time, very minimalistic and the colours create a great harmony on this enviroment...

2011-05-18T20:35:00.003-06:00

APHRODITE - Les Folies Tour 2011

2011-05-17T22:12:00.006-06:00

Finally May 14th came and it was all perfect, there is nothing else I can ask for at this moment, at this point of my life, it was so special, a dream come true.

I remember I like Kylie since I was 13yo and well, always hoping for her to come to Mexico, but it was never happening until now. For me its very special since her music was with me in very special moments on my life, when I fell in love for the first time and well... friends, parties, etc... lots of memories.

The concert was great couldnt stop singing, dancing, jumping, screaming, etc.... I was all crazy and excited. I was all by myself, since my friends had tickets at another area but I had a chance to be really close to the stage and well recorded some videos (very bad quality) and took photos aswell (not with my professional camera it was so sad, but I couldnt get to enter with it).
Still it was a great night, the background, the music, the sound, her, dancers, lovely time!!!

Definitely a show every single person MUST watch live!

KYLIE JE T'ADORE!
Thanks for coming to MX, hoping to see you back soon!

There's a video at the very end, I recorded like 20 more ha'' if you want to check them out visit my youtube channel

Le désert de mon coeur

2011-05-13T14:28:00.006-06:00

Back in winter I remember I found 2 blouses at my grandma's wardrobe, they were amazing, the fabric was very shinny, colourfull & light. There was a red one and a pink one, when I took 'em I thought that together they'll look great, shoot some photos and the result was great, then later my mom gave this pink cardigan to me which is very large and perfect for layering (yay).
So I took again the red shirt and this cardigan and thought it was lovely....
As you can see I dont use shorts that much but that day I was a bit inspired and there was kind of a hot weather....

What do you think about it?

all outfit is vintage except for the shorts got them at zara

Turn it into Love

2011-05-11T22:30:00.001-06:00

I had a chance to shot some photos today with some of my new stuff and other clothing I had for so long and never shot before.
Spring finally got to the city and well, not my favourite season but we have to deal with it.
I always wanted a jacket like that, military inspired with all of this buttons on the chest, then the tuxedo shirt which is vintage styled with a leopard print scarf.
The shoes are very special to me, a friend gave 'em to me recently on a trip I made to Guadalajara, MX. the colour is exquisite and all the little details make them unique!

Then on my trip I bought this black rounded earrings with this anchor on the center, thought they were lovely, they're 2 in case I lost 'em but only use 1 at a time.
Photos were shot by a friend of mine Angel Breaker.

ESPAÑOL
Tuve la oportunidad de tomarme algunas fotos con algunas de nuevas cosas que he adquirido y otras que ya tenía pero nunca habían salido por acá.
La primavera por fin llegó a la ciudad, que no es mi temporada favorita pero tenemos que lidiar con ella.
Siempre quize una chaqueta con inspiracion militar con botones en la pechera, luego tenemos esta camisa para tuxedo que es vintage estilizada con una mascada de leopardo.
Los zapatos son un regalo de mi mejor amigo en mi viaje a Guadalajara, MX. el color es exquisito y todos los detalles los hacen unicos!

También en el viaje compré estos aretes negros redondos con un ancla en el centro, me parecieron lindos, son dos en caso que llegue a perder uno de ellos, aunque solo uso uno a la vez.
Las fotos fueron tomadas por un amigo mío Angel Breaker

My Bday Party

2011-05-10T19:00:00.002-06:00

My Bday was officialy on May 3rd but since I was on a trip at Guadalajara, I had to wait until May 7th to party with my friends whenever I was back in town.
I had a great time with them, miss them so much, Im barely uploading this post and photos since I have a chance now and well, I wore a black see-through shirt with a turquoise sleeveless shirt.

ESPAÑOL
My cumpleaños fue oficialmente el 3 de Mayo pero como estaba de viaje en Guadalajara, tuve que esperar hasta llegar y celebrar con mis amigos el 7 de Mayo.
Me la pasé bien con ellos, los extrañaba, apenas tengo oportunidad de postearlo y subir algunas pocas fotos y bueno, usé una camisa negra transparente con una debajo color turquesa sin mangas.

I love you Guadalajara

Party & Gallery Time

2011-05-10T17:39:00.003-06:00

On my trip to Guadalajara, Jalisco, MX. I had a chance to get to party with one of my best friends Joseph, he used to live in the same city I live, but then he moved down there and took me to this party where there was lots of stylish people, art, and good music ON THE STREET, you could even see the cops passing by right your side and it was ok if you were drinkin there or having a good time.
The Artist featured on the photos (white tee and glasses) its Ivan Indalecio, who's creativity its amazing, very experimental work, lovely colours & pop art inspired, for my bad fortune all of his work was already sold out but Im hoping to get in contact with him soon so I can buy new paintings/illustrations

ESPAÑOL
En mi viaje a Guadalajara, Jalisco, MX. Tuve la oportunidad de irme de fiesta con uno de mis mejores amigos Joseph, que solía vivir en la misma ciudad que yo pero ahora se ha mudado ayá, me llevó a esta fiesta en una galería/café donde también la calle/exterior/acera era parte de la fiesta. Mucha gente bien vestida, arte, buena musica, podías estar tomando y diviertiendote sin que los policías que pasaban alrededor dijeran algo.
El artista en las fotos (remera blanca y lentes) es Ivan Indalecio, quien tiene una creatividad grandiosa, muy experimental su trabajo, colores divinos & con influencias pop art, para mi mala fortuna sus obras ya estaban vendidas, espero contactarlo en un futuro para comprar nuevas pinturas/ilustraciones que realice.

Chapala's Lake, Jalisco, MX
Such a wonderful experience, I've been away from the blog for so long, updating with some videos or simple stuff I like to share but I dont want it to let it die!!!
This was a very short vacation I had last week (around 8 days), went on a trip to visit some friends and to Gaga's concert on my bday May 3rd!!!
Prior of that,on Saturday, April 30th we escaped from the city and traveled all the way Chapala, a small town around 45 min from Guadalajara, Jalisco, MX.

Here are some photos I've taken and some of my friends made of me....
Hope you like 'em

Lago Chapala, Jalisco, MX
Una experiencia maravillosa, sé que he estado lejos del blog por un tiempo, he puesto algunos post con videos y algunas cosas sin sentido o que sólo quiero compartir pero no quiero dejarlo morir!!!
Estas fueron unas vacaciones cortas que tuve la semana pasada (alrededor de 8 días), fui a un viaje de visita a unos amigos y al concierto de Lady Gaga en mi cumpleaños Mayo 3!!!
Previamente, el sábado 30 de Abril nos escapamos de la ciudad y viajamos a Chapala, un pueblo cerca de Guadalajara a unos 45 min en coche.

Aquí unas fotos que tomé y otras que me hicieron mis amigos....
Espero les gusten

There's not much I would like to mention about this post, I posted few photos at my tumblr before and I actually was impressed by the use of colour and the feeling it gave me when I first saw this, my reaction was very positive and I felt instantly happy.
There was some legwear with very interesting prints on it, as always I love electric blue + gray, one of my fav combinations ever and the shapes are very clean and minimalistic, natural, simple and very rich.

As you might know the blog is mostly directed to mens wear / male style, but when it comes to a Fashion industry ICON, its crucial to make a post to talk about his work.
I remember myself getting close to fashion industry because of him, my favourite fashion designer, which created all of this stories and characters for his shows. It's such a wonderful work full of extreme volume, patterns and colours, also every piece is very dramatic, unique & full of details.

AMcQ is & will be always the top for me, I grew up inspired in him, in everything he has done, always innovating fashion industry putting on a different concept for the shows & for the entire world.

There's a tribute to his marvelous & iconic clothing exhibition which will start coming May 4th until July 31st 2011

I identifiedy myself in this collection, very edgy, minimalistic and dark, composed by gemoteric shapes & oversized coats, mix of patterns and für.

Such a wonderful work for the lookbook, the photography takes me to another level, I imagine myself exploring this enviroment created by the stylists+photographer+designer. What impressed me was looking at this faces all covered up by scarves w/ same print as the shirts on it, reminds me of a collection by Petar Petrov created couple of seasons back.

ESPAÑOL
Me identifico con esta colección, de vanguardia, minimalistay oscura, compuesta de formas geometricas y sacos de talla grande, combinación de patrones/estampados y pieles.
Un trabajo maravilloso para el lookbook, la fotografía me lleva a otro nivel, me imagino a mi mismo explorando este ambiente creado por los estilistas+fotógraf+diseñador. Lo que me impresionó mucho fue ver estas caras cubiertas de mascadas con el mismo estampado que las camisas, me recuerda a esta colección creada por Petar Petrov hace ya unas colecciones atrás.

Again here is another reflection of myself, except for colours which I dont use that much, I wish I could, but for some reason it's so hard for me to put them all together, will start working on it and looking for references, but whatever, what's important here is the collection which speaks for it self, black, white, touches of pink, yellow and blue (CMYK perhaps? ha''), the crazy geometrical patterns on the trousers and boots, are a must, I really like to play with them, very comfy clothes, all oversized and printed pieces. Very colourfull collection for a fall/winter season, that's what really captured my attention. Back in times I rememberd of myself dancing "nu rave" music with all of this colourfull clothing and quotes on my tees like the photo below...

ESPAÑOL
Una vez mas aquí otra reflecion de mi mísmo, excepto por los colores que no uso tanto, desearía pdoer hacerlo, pero por alguna razón me es dificil poner un outfit junto, empezaré a trabajar en ello y buscar por mas referencias, en fin, lo que es importante aquí es la colección que habla por si sola, negro, blanco, rosa, azul, amarillo (CMYK paleta de color quizá? ha''), las formas geométricas en sus estampados tanto como en botas como en pantalones, deben tenerlos o al menos usarlos, en verdad me gusta mucho jugar con estos elementos, muy cómoda se aprecia la colección, las piezas extra-grandes y estampadas. Muy colorida esta colección para la temporada otoño/invierno, que es lo que en verdad capturó mi atención. Hace años me recuerda a mi mísmo bailando en alguna dancefloor "nu rave" con toda esta ropa de color y frases impresas en mis remeras como en la foto de abajo....

Its been a lot since the last time it snow here at my city (Chihuahua, MX). I was very tired last night since I had to go
to school and work so I was hoping to skip school and sleep a little bit more.... Then lucky me it started snowing this morning and classes were suspendend! So happy... Woke up a late and then just went out with my sister to take some photos...

Whole outfit by zara, except for the boots which are vintahe (Mark & Co. does anyone know where is it from or anything?!) and then the hat made by my mom. Fur scarf is vintage and also the gray cardigan Im wearing...

ESPAÑOL
Ha pasado mucho tiempo desde la última vez que nevó aquí en la ciudad (Chihuahua, MX). Estaba muy cansado ayer en la noche porque tuve un día largo de escuela y trabajo y esperaba faltar a la escuela para dormir más…. Para mi sorpresa estaba nevando en la mañana así que básicamente suspendieron clases!! Muy feliz yo…. Desperté un poco tarde y ya salí a aprovechar el clima y tomar unas fotos con mi hermana…

Todo el outfit es de ZARA, menos las botas que son vintage (Mark & Co. ¿Alguien sabe de donde es o algo?). El gorro lo hizo mi mamá, la bufanda de pieles es vintage y también el cardigan gris que estoy usando en la capa de abajo.

Well, as I've mention on a post before I was involved on this project doing some styling & participating as a model, the requirements were just too have fun and show a party attitude, they wanted us to look fierce and at a times kind of agressive.
The location was at an old industry called AVENA #1 which is very cool, it has all of this european feeling.
Below you're able to see few photos I've taken with my camera, I remember I was very bussy running all morning trying for the make up and clothes to look great so I didnt had that much time to shot making of.

ESPAÑOL
Bueno, pues como había mencionado en un post anteriormente, estoy involucrado en este proyecto en lo que es styling y participando como modelo, los requerimientos fueron muy simples, divertirnos, mostrar una actitud fiesta, vernos seguros y agresivos en veces.
La locacion fue en una fábrica vieja localizada en la ciuda de Chihuahua, MX, llamada AVENA #1 esta super cool, tiene todo este aire europeo.
Abajo pueden ver algunas de las fotos que tome con mi camara, recuerdo que estaba super ocupado corriendo toda la mañana tratando que todo estuviera perfecto, así que no tuve mucho tiempo de poder tomar mas fotos del detrás de camaras.

Myself by Angel Breaker

I am currently working on this new series of photos which are inspired by arabian culture and a little bit of goth elements...
Recreation of melancholy, sadness, fear, mystery & delicate movements...
This is just a part of the styling I'll be using, let's say a TEASER, I'll be working during this semester on the photos and of course I have to decide more about the make up and some more locations...
Hope you like them, comments + feedback are welcome....

ESPAÑOL
Ahora mismo me encuentro trabajando en estas nuevas series de fotografías en las cuales se ve un poco de inspiración de la cultura árabe y un poco de elementos góticos para acentuar el estilismo...
Recreación de melancolía, tristeza, miedo, misterio y movimientos delicados...
Esta es solo una parte del estilismo que estare usando, digamos es una PROBADA, estaré trabajando todo este semestre en esas fotografías y por supuesto que tengo que decidir aun mas sobre el maquillaje y algunas otras locaciones...
Espero les agrade, comentarios y retroalimetnación son bienvenidas...

Milan Fashion Week F/W 2011-12 Part III

2011-01-20T14:11:00.008-07:00

VERSACE - Electric colours magenta+cian+gray such great combination, different geometic shapes, oh my it's really inspiring and also I was pretty amazed of the formal clothes such as suits or jackets pulled up with this leather belts and jackets/vests it's very sexy and gives a powerfull and dominant look.

ESPAÑOL
VERSACE - Colores eléctricos como el magenta+cian+gris que me parece una gran combinación, diferentes formas geométricas en la parte de arriba de los outfit, en verdad me parece inspirador y tambien me sorprendió que la ropa más formal como los trajes o chaquetas estuvieran adicionadas de estos cintos de piel y chaquetas/chalecos, es muy sexy y da una impresión de poder y de una persona dominante.

Z ZEGNA - What's glorious about this collection is the volume as you can clearly see, Im a big fan of oversized coats as you've read before and #omg this is so beautiful, every single shape is spectacular.
Not feeling much the colour palette but well wherever there's gray Ill be fine! I also found very special the jackets or coats with plaid print on it and this wide jacket lapels as you saw previously on AMcQ.

ESPAÑOL
Z ZEGNA - Lo que me parece glorioso en esta colección es el volumen creado como ustedes pueden ver claramente, soy un fan total de los abrigos grandes y esto me parece hermoso, cada forma es espectacular.
No me gusta mucho la paleta de color pero donde haya gris estare bien! Y también cabe mencionar los estampados a cuadros en chaquetas y estas solapas exageradas y abiertas como vimos anteriormente en AMcQ.

VIVIENNE WESTWOOD - I felt excited whenever I was taking a journey throught the collection, it has this rockabilly spirit, sometimes a bit sporty and classy, high waist pants and the belts are to die for, the shoes are not that good but are wearable, love the way it was styled with this red mouth which makes it more fun and chic I think...
Also I loved all the denim involved in some combos and also this geometric vest in white & blue...

ESPAÑOL
VIVIENNE WESTWOOD - Me sentí emocionado cuando estaba dando un paseo a lo largo de la colección, tiene este espíritu rockabilly alrededor, una atmosfera muy clásica creada y un poco deportiva, pantalones a la cintura y los cintos que están para morirte, los zapatos no me parecieron wow pero son usables, me encanto la boca roja en el estilismo de la pasada lo hace ver divertido y chic.
Amé la mezclilla involucrada en unos outfits y también el chaleco blanco y azul con formas geometricas...

PRADA - Always minimalist, great proportions and oversized tops, stockings all the way up to the knees & those trousers which look very comfy and soft IDK... It's beautiful this volume and the structure on the jackets/sweaters very rigid. I loved it from the beginning to the end.

ESPAÑOL
PRADA - Siempre minimalista, buenas proporciones y la parte superior siempre extragrande, las calcetas hasta arriba por la rodilla y esos pantalones que se ven super comodos y suaves, no sé.... Es hermoso el volumen y la estructura en las chaquetas/sweaters muy rígida. La amé de principio a fin.

JOHN VARVATOS - I will say only some adjectives so you can understand how much I loved this collection: wearable, classy, chic, sexy, british band, blue, gray, brown, boots,

ESPAÑOL
JOHN VARVATOS - Solo dire algunos adjetivos para q entiendan lo mucho que amé esta colección:
usable, clásica, chic, sexy, banda británica, azul, gris, café, botas, cómoda, relajada, desenfadada, el outfit de cada día. WOW

Milan Fashion Week F/W 2011-12 Part II

2011-01-20T10:52:00.008-07:00

TRUSSARDI 1911 - Lots of leather and great proportions in this figure, the boots and hightops are just amazing realli liked the colour and textures, and of course the leather pants, I've been looking for the perfect pair couple of months ago but still can't find something interesting...
The bags are not that cool as the ones from BURBERRY or GUCCI, but they're good enough.
Also the sun glasses are gorgeous to accomplish this sexy look for F/W 2011 season.

MISSONI - Very bohemian look, so full of textures and colourful but not as much as Burberry or D&G, great layering, the trousers look very comfy and the shoes #omg didn't liked them but ok.... is just my opinion.
Kind of a country side look but keeping it chic and sophisticated.

ESPAÑOL
MISSONI - Muy bohemio, lleno de texturas y colores, no como Burberry o D&G, me encanta el juego de capas, los pantalones se ven muy cómodos y los zapatios #diosss no me gustaron para nada parecen pantuflas pero bueno.... es solo mi opinión.
Un estilo parecido al campo pero manteniendolo chicy sofisticado.

D&G - I wont describe much what I liked on this one is just WOW, I mean risky colours, textures, fur, hightops, jeans, pop art, pop icons, fun, sexy, casual, can I say: the perfect guy for me? haha, this is another highlight for MFW 2011-12

ESPAÑOL
D&G - No describiré mucho lo que me gustó de esta colección solo es WOW, me refiero a los colores muy atrevidos, texturas, pieles, tenis de bota, jeans, pop art, iconos pop, diversión, sexy, casual, puedo mencioar: mi chico perfecto? haha, definitivamente otro de mis favoritos del MFW 2011-12

EMPORIO ARMANI - I liked the boots and coats to be honest, the gloves are so RICK OWENS last season inspired at my point of view...

ESPAÑOL
EMPORIO ARMANI - Me gustaron las botas y abrigos para ser honesto, los guantes son muy RICK OWENS temporada pasada inspirados a mi punto de vista....

GUCCI - Not impressed, it's very 60's-70's, glamour, full of fur or leather, always very sophisticated & classy, sometimes taking kind of a rock elements to pull out a great concept for Gucci collections.... I miss the old collections though... they were more interesting and rockish.

ESPAÑOL
GUCCI - No me impresiona, muy 60's-70's, glamour, lleno de pieles y cuero, siempre sofisticado y clásico, algunas veces tomando elementos rock para obtener estos looks que conciben las colecciones de Gucci.... Aun así extraño las viejas colecciones... eran mas aririesgadas y con un toque mas rockish.

Milan Fashion Week F/W 2011-12 Part I

2011-01-19T20:50:00.013-07:00

As many other bloggers do in this season, Im posting some of the looks for Milan Fashion Week.
I will not make a whole critic about what I liked or not... I dont tend to be a fashion critic but I'll try to give a quick opinion for what I think was HOT for me....
All of this looks are my favourites through all the collections, they're special and I think they have pretty much my essence...
This is just the first part im still working on the collages, photoshop can be very hard to deal with when you don't have a mouse with you and you're just working with the mouse on the laptop very difficult lol....

OK... so let's start with BURBERRY which I always love, I mean as you can see it's just a little bit that it changes between every season, the details and colours are just different in this one, very bright and cheerful, I dont know... I mean I dont use that much colour to be honest but I think sometimes it's great to have a special piece that will give a little extra touch on your outfit and well, more with this flourscent colours. The textures on the sweaters were very interesting & must say I was inspired and feeling a bit romantic and creative... Shoes uhmmm NO.... & the berets were very chic, I think its just beautiful the oversized coats and everything, it gives more volume of course and it let us appreciate the good work on every piece, Im a big fan of using oversized pieces in the top and skinny jeans...

ESPAÑOL
Como muchos otros bloggers hacen en esta temporada, estoy poniendo un post del Milan Fashion Week.
No haré una critica completa de cada colección ni de lo que esta bien o mal, no pretendo ser crítico de moda pero si me gustaría hacerles saber cuales fueron algunos de mis looks favoritos para esta temporada F/W 2011-12....
En verdad que los considero mis looks favoritos ya que como pueden ver a lo largo de cada uno de los post que hago tienen mucho de mi esencia personal y son especiales, me hacen viajar e inspirarme.
Esta es solo la primera parte de una serie de post, sigo trabajando en los collages, photoshop en verdad es dificil manipular desde el mouse del portátil ya que no cuento con uno externo mi papá siempre me lo roba!!!

OK... Entonces empecemos con BURBERRY que siempre me encanta (chicos británicos #meow), Como pueden ver para mi siempre cambia solo un poco entre cada temporada, los detalles y colores son decisivos en estas transiciones, muy coloridos y animados los atuendos que presentan, en verdad que los colores si son muy diferentes en esta colección en particular la cual trae algunos colores flourescentes. No sé, me refiero en verdad yo no uso colores muy brillantes o colores en sí pero pienso que siempre es bueno tener algo de color que haga o de un toque extra en nuestros outfits y mas si son de estos colores tan vivos., los zapatos uhmm no... PASO..... las boinas fueron buenas muy chic, y pues piendo que es muuuuuuuy lindo el utilizar la parte de arriba de nuestros conjuntos en tallas muy grandes o que creen volumen necesario para hacerlas mas interesantes y tener más impacto, al menos yo me considero fan y añadiendo unos skinny jeans...

ALEXANDER MCQUEEN! It's always one of my favs at MFW, this year there's no exception.
All of the volume created on this military inspired coats and capes are GORGEOUS, not to mention the shoes which are very cool I love that ziper in the very front of the boot.
The colour palette also is great, red, white & dark colours are always my choice. You can also see this lines juxtaposed on the vest in different colours play with the other colours on the coats and the result is just great as the layering.
The mix between fabrics & textures is also very important, Im into wide jacket lapels as you can see below on the photos such as the leather jackets and vests with the coats, another significant shape through the collection.

ESPAÑOL
ALEXANDER MCQUEEN! siempre me gusta en MFW y esta vez no es excepción.
Todo el volumen creado en estos abrigos inspirados en lo militar, las chaquetas y capas son MARAVILLOSOS, sin eolvidar lo cool que es el calzado con el ziper en la parte frontal de la bota.
La paleta de color es magnifica ya que son siempre los de mi elección, colores oscuros combinados con un poco de toques de rojo. También pueden apreciar como juegan líneas en diagonal en los chalecos haciendo una yuxtaposicion de color y que da mas interés al ser combinada con las capas de ropa.
La mezcla de telas y texturas es muy imprtante, me encanta también los cuellos anchos o solapas anchas en las chaquetas como podemos ver en las chaquetas de piel o de vestir y algunos abrigos, que hacen juego en capas de ropa con diferentes tipos de tela, estos cuellos anchos hacen un sello importante en la colección para esa temporada.

MOSCHINO! Another reference that F/W 2011 collections are very colourfull.
This is another of my favourite designers wich is always very fun and has this specific attitude, kind of rokish and classy, always love they have in mind a sexy young man ready to rock everywhere.
Strips all over shirts and pants, classy shoes and great boots!! stockings all the way up and all of this red & gray sporty inspired combos.

ESPAÑOL
MOSCHINO! Otra referencia de que las colecciones del F/W 2011 son muy coloridas.
Este es otro de mis diseñadores preferidos, siempre es muy divertido y tiene esta actitud en especifico, un tanto rockish y classy, siempre me encantan como tienen en mente este hombre sexy y jóven dispuesto a rockear donde sea o hacerse notar.
Todos los outfits con rayas en remeras o pants, zapatos de corte clásico y muy buenas botas! Las calcetas hasta arriba y todo este rojo y gris que esta alrededor de los outfits con inspiración un poco sport esta vez.

It came from a very special person, it's see-through, black, romantic.
It used to have sleeves on it, took them off and mend them sleeves around the neck to create more volume, too sad I will not be able to wear it like this until next summer, it's my new fav piece....

Hope you like it...

Just wanted to share random photographies I took today and some of what I wore....

What I captured behind Lanvin for H&M Film

2010-11-04T18:46:00.034-07:00

I saw this video for the first time at Style Scrapbook, my sister is such a big fan from AndyT so I've been checking on her lately.
Then I was ready to click on play, I knew Alber Elbaz was working for this collection for H&M and thought it was wonderful I was so excited to finally watch the promo.

The very first time I played it I was AMAZED.... it was kind of superficial, but funny, chic, the music was adrorable, the story was all entertaining and the clothes of course LOVED THEM...
Then I had to put it a couple of extra times... (it generated this kind of addicton by now) & I've found LOTS of different random things that might not be true or is just my mind that thinks like marketing, of course I was not able to see them at the first instance but wanted to share a bit with you so you can tell me if Im right or just crazy.

First of all, the characters & their enviroment:

1. I'd like to begin with the first scene on the video, Alber Elbaz lying on this desk dreaming about the collection and all of the situations & scenarios involved wich are about to be described in shortly...

2. Natasha Polly walking down the hall, wearing this white top with a crazy illustration, it works for me, very chic with this fur coat, sexy waist skirt and red heels of course, not to mention the funky hair & her desperate/lost attitude in front of the camera. This character seems to be very picky and she knows what she want she wants LANVIN for H&M, and not even interested in trying out other things, it shows us a very strong woman

3. The following characters are strange for me, they come from the back from this hall, some of them walking normal and the others are kind of robotic, playing with their bodies. You can even see this type of mannequin comming from there too. The dress is gorgeous but whenever is attached to this characters it gives me the feeling its playfull, fun, but chic.

4. They guy... which I dont consider the most handsome man in the world but well.... he comes dressed up with this small bowtie and kind-of-a-flower? non colourfull at all... He has all of this roses and the girl seems not interested at all, I would say his outfits describe a lot of the situation because in the next time he appears on the video he has a bigger bowtie, its shinny and red and he has this diamond necklace, hes confident and sure he will hit on her but she's keeping her picky attitude and does not give him a chance to continue seducing her. By the end he has this blue fancy bowtie and the Lanvin for H&M dress, she's pretty excited and tries it on, until he "gets the girl" for a moment at least, until she ran away.

5. Then we have this 2 girls, walking around the hotel halls, one of them is leaving the elevator and comes across this other blonde girl, they start saying OMG! which is a phrase normally "white girls or american girl" would say & also if you see their cellphones are particulary pink, they stare, turn around continue their ways, they're kind of getting in a bitchy fight but it does not happens.... They're using this big shades such as LA girls do, and short dresses such as they do also whenever they go clubbing (multiculture).

6. In the next part you can see this young ladies staring theirselves at the mirror with another old character in the back, the first one is not specially what you consider "a model", the second one looks a bit more young and is drawing this heart on the mirror's surface and just to finish the old lady sits and stare at herself, touching her face, you can see shes saying with her body language "I want to be young, pretty, I want to be as the H&M girls"....

7. The romantic lonely girl, dressed up in this red bohemian dress, with all of this frilly details. She comes home, but no ones there, she looks at herself for a while on the mirror, seems shes taking her clothes off, in her mind hes naked but she's still a Lanvin girl, even taking a shower she feels glamorous, sexy, romantic.

8. Then appears another character, she seems to be a little overweight and with 2 guys around her, they're exercising, for me it's saying it does not matter how you look outside, the attitude is what it keeps you feeling chic! the 2 guys represent for me this other subcultures we're surrounded and they're ok with this situation, no problems, just working out at the same time.

9. Then it appers this strange character which I dont explain myself yet what she's exactly doing, I guess she's just having fun enjoying herself in the mirror even on the TV, she's narcissistic. They want you to feel the same, strong and confident of who you are.

10. New scenario shows 4 models sitting waiting for this kind of "doctor"? I guess I interpret they're waiting to be healed of this bad habbit of shopping a lot or having too much self-esteem, they're wearing this colourfull dresses and for me its kind of saying "Im going crazy" with all of this crazy textures and prints on them. They look at each other as if they were ashamed.

11. Then you can see the old lady coming back, dancing with this other 2 girls, one of them is kind of a very femenine looking girl and the other looks more like shes got a punk attitude. What it comes to my mind visually it's the versatillity of the pieces to be worn in different times, styles or ages.

12. After that there comes another 2 girls, they're leaving the elevator, one of them has a stain on her dress and the other is dressed up very posh, they're worried a 3rd person was in the elevator and accidently dropped some ketchup on her dress. Then a charming prince comes all in white as the colour of peace and hope. He puts this necklace around her and she's all stunned but then a new character leaves the elevator and they're all staring at her, the girl forgives about the stain, the necklace, her friend and the charming prince, she's looking at this other girl wearing Lanvin H&M collection, she looks gorgeous and sexy, she wants to be like her....

13. The sexy zebra coat girl arrives to her hotel room, shes very confident in what shes wearing and feeling but OH SURPRISE! Her man is with another girl! and they're kissing and making out, she shows shes furious about it and takes her coat off, then the other girl comes to her and they stare at each other, they're the same wearing this black dress and one of them says I LOVE YOUR DRESS, and the other MERCI (again multicultural), this is another fav time on the story, superficial but very cool. It might be a generic dress but stills is Lanvin for H&M and its lovely....

14. Just for last, to complete the story there's this girl running on the halls of the hotel, which is very fancy and elegant, but at the end you can see there's a painting of the halls in this hotel. It also lets me understand no matter if it generic, its Lanvin for H&M and will fit you perfectly no matter who you are....

Also, I almost forget about the Hotel rooms, if you have a numerical thinking, go directly and check the apartament, numbers, it describes so much about the characters personallity and different connotations. This part of the analysys was made in collaboration with a friend of mine (VeronicaV).

Why Should I mind

2010-11-03T19:45:00.003-07:00

I feel so bad since I don't have time for the blog lately, I'm about to graduate and have to keep focus at school projects, I was thinking the other day bout closing it but NO! It will be too much for me and kind of rude for all of the people that come by once in a while and check what's posted here, I just can not do it.
Thank you once again for those who support the blog and visit me, for the comments, for your opinions and everything else.
I've been working on a new concept to bring to you and try to expand more this personal style page but haven't come up with a big idea yet, at the moment if you know someone might be interested in male style, fashion or just art, let them know bout my page, perhaps they will find something interesting and will come back later as many of you do!
Here's a look of what I wore today, it's been uploaded to lookbook and chictopia, which I have to keep updated aswell!!!

Once again THANK YOU!

"I'm almost back to school next August 23rd, I have lots of expectations from my last year at College I hope everything's good, Im a little bit scared and happy about it, Hope I can travel soon..."

I just wanted to share this post from the past photoshoot I made with one of my favourite scarves I have, it's like this Alexander Mcqueen Skull Scarf (the one MKO is always wearing). Got it at Mexico City @zara for a very cheap price, long time haven't wear it so I decided to bring it back and pull it up with this outfit for the past rainy days there were on July.

The whole outfit by zara, except bracelets made by me or are vintage & ray ban sun glasses
