naramo bags

I went to the market this saturday.

It was one of those perfect spring sunny days-and the wind blew.

Oooh it blew like there's no tomorrow!

My heart sang, and my bangs flew and I was so happy.

Also I wore my new navy blue wool dress, which I bought in Trieste in a great shop called George Hogg

AND a bag form my dear friend Gojka Rak.

She designs quality bags mostly leather, some of them are made of felt, all of them made with love.

You can check the goods (hand bags, computer bags, wallets, iPad sleeves)

on www.naramo.eu

Go ahead, check them, you won't be sorry :)

Right now she's having a 30% sale of current and old models, but I know for a fact

that she's designing some new models as we speak!

And she may or may not have things-other-than-bags in store for us.

Oh, goody!

post december

It's the same every year. December is my favorite part of the year, but around new years I get fed up with it.

And I can't wait to start doing something other than just bake, eat, decorate and have fun. I feel like I miss january. Like it's been too long since I last had it. And then it comes, and it's so much less than I'd expected it to be.

A smack in the face it's what it is! Instead of boiling over with new work force, I find myself quite low spirited.

Of course, by february everything is back to normal. And the work force comes, or it doesn't :)

So to be in tune with my mood, here's a video with a beautiful soundtrack.

It's a Kate Moss video for F/W 2010/2011 Balmain campaign. Inez and Vinoodh were the photographers in charge and they thought of a great way to do the photoshoot. They placed several hidden cameras on the set and just filmed Kate as she naturally moved and/or wiggled in the couch. The short film is called Everglade and it features Jo Ratcliffe's illustrations in collaboration with Bouwine Pool. And the soundtreck is Antony and the Johnsons'.

The video I like very much, and I wouldn't want to jump to any conclusions, but Kate is dressed exactly as if this was shot last year or even 2 years prior. Pleas Balmain, don't do it again! If you make yet another almost-identical-only-slightly-different collection I'll be so sad and disappointed. I'm actually at a point where, if they had done something new and creative, I'd die of shock :)

However I still kind of love Balmain.

Good night!

new suede shoes

“”

Shoe The Bear is launching a new range of shoes created in collaboration with the renowned Copenhagen based designer Bibi GHOST. A full collection of shoes and sneakers inspired partly by the French Bistro culture. Cosy atmosphere, loud and jolly people with a touch of finesse, class and unpretentiousness.

It's collection with a wide variety offeminine silhouettes and masculine materials all topped with massive amounts visual expression.

And I liked the editorial too.

I'd wear ....

this light, fluttering Giambatistta Valli's dress with...

these heavy Rodarte boots. Aren't they dope? And the green is sooo nice.

Contemporary armor

(Gemma Slack A/W 09)

I always had a thing for rugby gear. Shoulder pads, helmets, body armors

-whatever this things are called. And these pieces on Gemma Slack are insanely cool. I don't much care for the foam-like vests, and that thing over the head is just wack, however I really like the shoulder sculptures and the back thing.I'd have them and wear them in a second.

I'm just not that sure I could pull it off .

Treat me like your mother!

This video is great, and it's funny.

Check the girl, Alison Mosshart. I'm taken by her. She's this rock chick, and she's so feminine.
