Model

Daniela Braga

Brazilian born Daniela Braga is currently blowing my mind. Catching a glimpse of her at Bluemarine SS12, I was on board. Her face confuses me... she looks like such a brilliant mix of nationalities ( I don't know if she is, but I've decided that she is far too hot not to be).

All Those Lines - Pedro Lourenco

While madly searching for more images of tiger headed people drinking Martinis (see post below,) I stumble come across another Perdro Lourenco.... fashion designer!!!

Where to start.There is just something about the geometric cut outs, lines, shapes and colours that just reminds me of a traffic sign. Ha, I guess being a traffics sign may not be considered hot, it's just all very constructivist and I likey very very muchy.

Here is a quick collection grab of the last few years.

Needless to say, I pretty much adore all that alludes to anything remotely graphic... mix that with a bit of girlie cool and BOOM, you have a killer outfit!

Illustrated Mush Ups - Pedro Lourenco

I just love the web. It's funny how one thing can bring you to another and before you know it, you have discovered something new that you just love.  All will be revealed shortly...

In my post work, chill out Google time I came across Portugal base illustrator, Pedro Lourenco.
These low-fi images make me smile. I love the surreal, dark humour in them.

I just adore how these illustrations have an old school tattoo quality to them. I want them on a t-shirt or printed on something I can wear. Check out his blog http://www.ink-and-paper.blogspot.co.uk/

Seriously, what's not to like about someone with a tiger head doing a bit of Jane Fonda???

Window Shopping

Ahhhhhhh, Italy in the summer of 2006 was the BEST. We just spent weeks and weeks lazing in the sun, eating gelato and having regular window shopping adventures. Florence is really jammed packed full of the most amazing shops. My personal fav was wandering to the Cavalli store. Just walking past those windows made me happy AND that time we walked in with flip flops and swimming pool hair, still makes me laugh.

Good old Roberto NEVER lets me down.... have you checked out the Just Cavalli Pre Spring 2013 collection?

OH, and don't get me stated on Luisa Via Roma or the Miu Miu shop.... I die whenever I go to either!

Firenze.......

Firenze is such a second home to the both of us, that your post below makes my heart so full and happy!

Memories.....

I have never been to one but this current sunshine is worth the hunt.
