Fashion = Shallow




Hello my cupcakes!!! :)


So this week I came across with people observing me weirdly, not that I care or whatever, but I was just thinking - Does it really mean if you wear heels or I do not know maybe looking more fashionable then most of people that you are really shallow and that the only thing you care about is your appearance!?!? 
OK, I am not mad at people that think this way, but it is just a question why do they care so much what you wear, how do you look like etc. Yes I live in a really small small town where people ''know'' everything - if you know what I mean, but I am really NOT interested in them as long they act like that and pretend to be your friend! :) 
Well and let me tell you - I hope you do NOT get the wrong message about me, but it is just a random question and this question is popping in my head like almost every day, especially when I see people observing me in a strange way! :) 
So I would definitely like to hear your opinion on this and I hope this is not just my ''problem''!

And the other thing is that most of people think we - fashionistas - are really shallow! I don't get it!? Why? Sure we love shopping, but come on, I also care about science, social problems etc... I don't know if  it's only me that comes across with this kind of people or what, but it is not nice if you ask me what is my passion and I say fashion and then you say start acting weird... :)

Yes I will stop complaining! :) It is like I said - two questions on my mind on a daily basis! :)

Lovely readers have a wonderful weekend, enjoy it to the fullest and don't let it be like mine (studying and stuff)!!! :)

Hugs and kisses!
S.


PS: Love this Louis Vuitton pic! :) Although Miss Lopez looks, hmmm let's just say not like herself! :P

John Galliano - My Number 1

Lately I've been thinking a lot about my favourite designers and let me tell you, the first name that pops into my head is 
J O H N  G A L L I A N O, I have no idea why exactly, 
but I know that I feel so much respect for his work, for his outrageous fashion, amazing and spectacular fashion shows...
Interesting, historical, brave and inspiring - that what he is to me!!!


He has been quoted as identifying his love of theatre and femininity as central to his creations, he has also said '' MY ROLE IS TO SEDUCE'' and let me tell you he is good at seducing me, I believe, for sure, that I am NOT the only one!!! 


I will just post a paragraph that I've read somewhere and is exactly what I think about JG:

** This is not surprising because John Galliano is fashion’s great romantic. From his fantastical clothes, to his colourful background, Galliano’s charmed rise to fame reads not unlike a fairy tale. His genius is his ability to communicate this through his clothes. He also has immense ambition. Behind his gentle aesthetic, John Galliano is a powerhouse, a man whose ambition to go down in history as one of fashion’s great is awesome, even intimidating. His long-time creative collaborator Amanda Harlech once described disagreeing with him thus: "I did only once and I can only compare it to being hit by a massive surfing wave. His indifference was absolute." **

!!! LOVE IT !!! 
He pictures everything that I love and adore! 
And I thank him for that!

Ok that is what I wanted to tell you about my favourite designer, it's pointless that I write a long essay about him (though, he would completely deserve one!!!), because I'm sure that there's a lot of you, who know him very good!

Soooo... 
It's picture time! :D
Woooohooo!!!

Among this pictures you will find some pictures of his boutique which I took when I was in Paris...



 




Aaaaah... Shoeholic I say!!! :D



Glorious!!!



A little bit of eye-candy does not hurt! :P


And voila GJ's boutique in Paris:




Enjoy it my cupcakes!

Peace, love, kisses!

Shoeholic

Hello my name is S. and I'm a SHOEHOLIC! Like serious one!!!

Since I was a little girl I was always secretly trying my mothers shoes and I bet I'm not the only girl that was doing this, as we already know girls are obsessed with shoes, well at least a little bit, so this is definitely something you should not be ashamed!!!

Due to my ''problem'' my friends are always making fun of my shoeholism. For instance when I go shopping, they always say: So S. how many shoes did you bought today!? Will you need them? Don't you have kind of the same pair already!? And I'm like c'mooooon people you can never have enough of black or whatever - color shoes!!! Shoes make the outfit shine and sometimes shoes say a lot about you, how you feel at the moment and how self-conscious you are!!! But hey thats only my opinion, it's allowed to have a different one! 

Here you can see some of my favourite shoes, so you can have some clue what I like at the moment! Later I will post also my favourite shoes I bought couple of months ago in Nice, France and let me tell you I love them so much that I'm scared to wear them!!! Ha! How stupid is that!? No comment here, it's just the way I am! :P

My goddesses enjoy the weekend!

XOXO

The beginning

So let me get started... Firstly I promise I will try to make this blog interesting, certainly not boring, so I will appreciate all of your comments, positive or negative, as I'm here for you as well! Ok, I won't talk about nonsense, so I will just start and write about what i'm really interested in and as I mentioned in About me section it will be mainly fashion, with maybe some art, literature and history facts... Also facts about some other fields are possible! :D Yeah I'm pretty curious person, with big hunger for more and more knowledge!

Ok, after some serious The Tudors - watching - experience (Jonathan Ryhs Meyers - simply meoooow, also other grrrr men - something for my eyes! Hehehe...) accompanied with some serious Historical - novels - reading - experience I rediscovered my passion for Middle age, Early modern and Modern historical periods. I don't know what exactly about those periods attracts me so much, but I love everything about it... Maybe because deep inside I'm a very, very romantic person, just maybe! :D I love the idea of living in a castle, epic love stories, amazing fashion (refering to men and women fashion), amazing history, a lot of influental people (Elizabeth I., Shakespear... - you know what I mean?), art, literature... Everything! Food for my soul I say!!! :D Good sometimes I wish I could return to that period, be a princess or something like that... Yeah I know dreaming! :D But hey, who thinks dreams are stupid, well let me tell you, you are wrong!!! It's allowed to dream!!!





So I went a little off topic, like usually, but don't worry I will get to my point! As I  mentioned before I really love, love, love the dresses ladies wore in those periods. The dresses are so glamorous, fashionable, sophisticated, gorgeous... With a statement for sure!!! Oooow how I wish I would live in those periods! :D I'm not complaining, this period fashion is amazing as well, but I guess medieval, renaissance etc. gowns just have some secret that attracts me in the way it does! Just look at this fabulousity! :D












My ladies and gentlemen (if there are some I'm deligthed :P) that would be my post for today, I hope you liked it and that I made a good first impression! 
Enjoy the rest of the day and get crazy, it's friday!

XOXO
S.
