Summer Girl

Whenever I open my closet, the idea I have in my mind (that never comes true) is Serena Van der Woodsen, at least most of the times. But, of course, my hair doesn't behave and my clothes aren't Chanel, however, I'm usually satisfied with the result.
Summer is different... it's the season in which my beach and surfer side blossoms, it's the time to change the perfect wavy haired blonde girl from GG for the blonde girl with the hair full of salt from 90210.
La mayoría de las veces, el ideal que tengo en la cabeza cuando abro el armario (que nunca se cumple, claro) es Serena Van der Woodsen. Ni el pelo se amolda, ni la ropa es de Chanel, pero suelo salir satisfecha de casa.

Pero el verano es distinto... es la estación que saca mi lado más playero, surfero... podría decirse. Es el momento de cambiar en mi cabeza a la rubia de ondas perfectas de GG por la rubia de pelo ensalitrado de 9021.

She is my Summer 2011 inspiration :) Ella es mi inspiración veraniega de 2011 :)

She's got a special taste for vintage stores, for hats, waves and Jeeps... She also has one of my favourite tumblrs, because of its pictures and music (classics and the best indie)
Tiene un gusto especial por las tiendas vintage, por los sombreros, por las olas y por su Jeep... Además de uno de mis tumblrs preferidos, por sus fotos y la música, clásicos y de lo mejor del indie.:



The hat alternative we could see in Spring/Summer 2011 runways:

If you're anything like me, you'll taste the candy after smelling it, so here's a video that explains you how to make your own turban: All you need is a handkerchief! (I found it in Because I'm Addicted.)
Y, como no voy a pasar el caramelo por la boca para luego guardarlo, aquí les dejo un video explicativo encontrado en Because I'm Addicted. Sólo hace falta un pañuelo :)

This is one of the garments she wore in 90210, as Ivy, I fell in love with: (The proof that demonstrates you can look amazing wearing H&M)

Taste is not something you appreciate only in the way you dress yourself up; style isn't only in the clothes you wear, that is why I think showing some small places of her home is needed. I wouldn't mind this girl decorating my appartment...

El gusto no es algo que sólo se respire en la manera de vestir; el estilo no se aprecia solamente en la ropa, por eso me parece imprescindible mostrar algunos rincones de su casa, fotografiados por Elle (the Coverteur). No me importaría que esta chica decorase mi piso ...

As tears go by












Love this picture with Jagger :) / Me encanta esta foto con Jagger :)






Lucas?

All I hear is the sound
of rain falling on the ground
I sit and watch
as tears go by

Christmas time at home is over. It's all so beautiful and sad, that I can't help but crying a bit. / Las Navidades en casa se terminan. Es todo tan bonito y triste, que no puedo evitar llorar un poco.

Peace and Love,

"An artist is somebody who produces things that people don't need to have"


"In the future, everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes."

"I'm afraid that if you look at a thing long enough, it loses all of its meaning."


"It would be very glamorous to be reincarnated as a great big ring on Liz Taylor's finger."

Edward Smith: Would you like to see your pictures on as many walls as possible, then?
Andy Warhol: Uh, no, I like them in closets.

"I love Los Angeles. I love Hollywood. They're beautiful. Everybody's plastic, but I love plastic. I want to be plastic."

"They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself. "

"Don't pay any attention to what they write about you. Just measure it in inches".

"My idea of a good picture is one that's in focus and of a famous person."

"Fantasy love is much better than reality love. Never doing it is very exciting. The most exciting attractions are between two opposites that never meet. "
"During the 1960s, I think, people forgot what emotions were supposed to be. And I don't think they've ever remembered. "

Andy Warhol: I think everybody should like everybody.
Gene Swenson: Is that what Pop Art is all about?
Andy Warhol: Yes, it's liking things.

"I never understood why when you died, you didn't just vanish, everything could just keep going on the way it was only you just wouldn't be there."

"The most beautiful thing in Tokyo is McDonald's. The most beautiful thing in Stockholm is McDonald's. The most beautiful thing in Florence is McDonald's. Peking and Moscow don't have anything beautiful yet. "

"I suppose I have a really loose interpretation of "work" because I think that just being alive is so much work at something you don't always want to do. Being born is like being kidnapped. And then sold into slavery. People are working every minute. The machinery is always going. Even when you sleep."

"I never think that people die. They just go to department stores. "

"I used to think that everything was just being funny but now I don't know. I mean, how can you tell? "

"One lady friend asked the right question, 'Well, what do you love most?' That's how I started painting money. "

"In the future, everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes."... I'm bored with that line. I never use it anymore. My new line is "In 15 minutes everybody will be famous."

"I have Social Disease. I have to go out every night. If I stay home one night I start spreading rumors to my dogs. "

"Isn't life a series of images that change as they repeat themselves? "

"It's the movies that have really been running things in America ever since they were invented. They show you what to do, how to do it, when to do it, how to feel about it, and how to look how you feel about it. "

"I think having land and not ruining it is the most beautiful art that anybody could ever want to own. "

Quotes by Andy Warhol



I reccommend this beautiful film, "Factory girl", for those who don't know who she was. Guy Pearce and Sienna Miller are great on it, and, of course, I love every outfit she wears! Here's the trailer:



Recomiendo "Factory girl", una linda película para aquellos que no sepan quién fue ella. Guy Pearce y Sienna Miller están muy bien y, claramente, adoro cada uno de sus conjuntos!
