Around my Queendom...

Since I moved two floors up in my building last Spring, so many amazing things have already happened here at home. These walls already keep some dope stories and have seen a lot of beautiful moments I guard in my heart. When I moved here, the thing that fascinated me the most was probably the light that comes into my bedroom by two big windows. I love light. I love to open my windows in the morning and feel the breeze. Even at night, I usually fall asleep looking at the skyline. It definitely fascinates me. I also love to have a bathroom where I can get ready every morning and that also provide enough space to have everything stored and organized. I know where all my beauty items are. I feel complete here. A thing that I love about when it's cold is to go to bed and enjoy a warm lemon/peach/passion fruit before falling asleep, while watching TV or surfing on Tumblr. And I also love to have friends over and talk for long hours. There are still things that have to be done here but, since I'm moving to Switzerland, I'd rather don't spend money on that and save it. Today I bring you some of my favorite parts in my bedroom (and bathroom). I have a big passion for Andy Warhol so I have two of his most famous statements that I also keep as life rules. I also own a big sneaker collection from when I was a teenager that I now use to go to the gym. You can see my bedroom tea corner and two of my bathroom shelves where I keep my beauty products that I use on a daily basis. In the first picture you can see my bed with the blanket that my best friend gave me last Christmas and, on the second one, you can see the painting that scored my the highest grade on Arts back in high school. I hope you enjoy and you get to know me a bit more. I also leave you with my video for Bloggers In The Morning project by Jessica Silva that I like to remember every once in a while. And today seemed like the perfect occasion.

Back in February. Can't believe this year is coming to an end.

Justin, thank Wu

Justin Wu, you crazy genious, thank you so much for putting Olivia Palermo next to River Viiperi and Francisco Lachowski. Spring 2013's top models know how to rock.

The Military Style

I have been a big fan of the military look for two, three years now. It combines some of my favorite colors: red, blue and black. I remember I got my first big blue military jacket at ZARA and I just loved how powerful and comfortable I felt in it. Last year I bought a black one and I'm sure I'm going to use it a lot this Winter. I believe that military style pieces are timeless, they can last on your wardrobe for years. They just make you feel warm and cosy but fashionable at the same time. Today I bring a couple of suggestions to get the perfect military look for the cold months. Its crisp tailoring, brass buttons, well combined with navy and red, will make heads turn everywhere you go. You don't have to spend a lot of money to achieve a perfect look and, if you buy something a bit more expensive, I'm sure you will use it for years. And, one day that it's considered vintage, people will still use it for sure. Try to complete your look with gold details, such as buttons or earrings. And boots are essential, at least for me. As a bottom, I would choose a pair of black leggings, and then pair them with a big black jacket. There are so many combinations you can do.

Street Style

Wherever there are fashion shows, there are fashionable people around for sure. And I have to confess that, apart from checking the latest creations from my favorite designers during Fashion Weeks around the globe, another thing that I absolutely love is to see who attended the shows and what they were wearing. I love to see how avant-garde those people are, how they think outside the box and how some outfits are just totally extravagant but work out on the person wearing it. Some pieces weren't just made for each other but they end up completing the best outfit ever. And I have no words for how fabulous Miroslava Duma and Anna Dello Russo are. Love them.
