Forever 21 bags. Funny and cheap!

I love Forever 21 bags, they are beautiful and very cheap, thought and designed for young girls or women who are fashionistas and are looking for a modern and a pretty bag. They have a great portfolio of bags, where you can find the best seller white Printed Bags, other more colorful, clutches, pouches, backpacks...

As I said they are very affordable because the prices of the bags I've chosen below go from 1.80$ to 32.80$. One good thing about this cheap prices is that they allow you to buy multiple models and combine them according to your day outfit. 

With Forever 21 you'll have a funny and beautiful bag for every ocasion. Check the models I've selected!

Carine Roitfeld fashion film for Mercedes Benz

I can't explain how I feel when I see a fashion film. 

Maybe this is normal when mixing two beautiful arts like the cinema and fashion. A lot of images in movement combined with a stylish good taste, fleeting beauty. 

This time Mercedes Benz has ordered their new advertising video to Carine Roitfeld, THE EDITOR, but model, stylist, writer, and muse too.

She was the editor-in-chief of Vogue Paris during more than ten years, from 2001 to 2011, when she was succeed by Emmanuelle Alt.

The protagonist of the film is the chinese top Sui He, with her symmetric and asiatic beauty easily adorable. 

This fashion film also enjoys the help of Stephen Gan, the philippine creative director, editor and founder of Visionaire - V Magazine.

The video was called "SS14 Vision in motion":

Here you have the two Interviews where Carine and Stephen talk about this project and how this collaboration with Mercedes-Benz came about. Nothing better than their own experience to know how was it done:

You might also like the Making Of with inedit images and moments from the shoot. On it, the both creative directors also talk about their feelings about the project and the top Sui He explains how it happened.

After watching the campaign I just can agree with Stephen Gan: "Fashion and beauty are just my world"

I hope you enjoy the video as I did. We got to say thanks to fascinating collaborations like this one.

Walking the streets of Nancy

I adore to visit France. All the men and women look so elegant and stylish. They know exactly how to mix every piece.

The last week I spent a few days in Nancy, an old city (included in the UNESCO world heritage list) placed in the North of France where the buildings have a lot of history and the flowers almost talk.

Nancy is really beautiful, specially in the summer. Luckily I've found a video that shows it.

These are some pics of my trip, the city and my chosen outfits:

Song of the day: Francoise Hardy – Le temps de l'amour (Remastered) 

The outfit of the day was: "Fashion Maniac" T-shirt by Mango, neon sky blue skirt by Zara Woman, black leather sandals by Fosco, black rock purse with golden string by Zara. Vintage sunglasses from the market Vintage-Me shop Barcelona.

The enchanted Garden

This outfit was composed by: Magenta shirt by Zara Woman, printed black and white pencil skirt by Bershka, nude sandals by Fosco, black rock purse with golden string by Zara, my silver bracelet and ring.

And God created the woman

Yes, we are Women. And we love to be.

Who said this is a man's world? The liberation of women is surely the best event of the XXI century, and nowadays is a "must" for all of us . We've leraned that sexy has a lot in common with intelligence, and putting them together is the best choice you can do. No doubt.

Madonna sang it in The Girl Gone Wild, and maybe she's my first inspiration when we talk about the modern, powerful and independent women. She is HER. Dancing on the floor and kissing models on a video is not a problem for her when she's 54. 

She feels young and strong. So do you?

The woman's been created to shine  and no matter about edges or races. Yes the make up is essential, and the clothes also are, but a strong attitude makes the difference.

Today I've been inspired by one of the sexiest Victoria's Secret in the world. Maybe you'll know who I'm talikng about just by saying this. The sexiest bombshell.

She is the supermodel Candice Swanepoel. This is a shooting fot the MUSE Magazine #30 photographed by Collier Schorr in the Summer 2012 edition.

Listening today: Madonna – Give Me All Your Luvin'

Summer, Pose, Action!

The summer has come and with it the sun, the bikinis, the tan skin... and mainly what? THE FREEDOM.

Maybe because of this wild feeling we are more inspired. Inspired in doing poses. Summer poses which transmit happiness together with movement. Yes. It's time to move the body and jump into the sea of summer.

Welcome to the summer, the liberty, and the only time of the year when we are more relaxed and our skin shines.

Let's do a pose to celebrate it.
