Lucian Freud

"Sometimes he was very chatty, sometimes he was very quiet – I always thought he should have been on the telly. He'd say terrible things about people, but he never saw that he was really rude. I was always a bit jealous: he did exactly as he pleased. He was funny, miserable, horrible, kind, mean, generous, every character trait mixed up in one person."

Ola!!! Get some Espadrille!!!

The term espadrille is French and derives from the Catalan name for the shoes, espardenya, which derives from espart, the Catalan name for esparto, a tough, wiry Mediterranean grass used in making rope. Espadrilles have been made in Catalonia since the 14th century at least, and there are Catalan shops still in existence that have been making espadrilles for over a century. Traditional espadrilles have a canvas upper with the toe and vamp cut in one piece, and seamed to the rope sole at the sides. Often they would have laces at the throat that would be wrapped around the ankle to hold the shoes securely in place. Traditional espadrilles are worn by both men and women.
A stylish "must-have" this summer! Go and get some!!!

When we think about cropped shirts we often have 90s rave and buffalo plateaus in mind. But these shirts have a big revival this summer and yes, they can look quite good if you know how to combine them (no buffallos please!). And it´ s very easy, you only have one rule to follow: So don´t show your navel and wear highwaisted short, skirts, pants...whatever you like, as long it covers your belly.

You can buy them in almost every shop at the moment or you can start a new do-it-yourself project and just crop an old  t-shirt (the more sloppy, the better!).

"Since the fashion industry first began asking “Who’s the blonde girl?” at the Paris men’s shows in June (2010), 19-year- old Serbian Australian model Andrej Pejic has emerged as a poster boy for fashion androgyny. His long, platinum blonde hair and feminine features caught the attention of, among others, Steven Meisel and Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott. Jean Paul Gaultier not only booked Pejic for his spring 2011 men’s show, he also cast him in his spring ad campaign alongside Czech supermodel Karolina Kurkova. Now it looks like Marc Jacobs may also be going the guess-the-gender route for his Marc by Marc Jacobs spring campaign. Pejic recently returned from shooting the ads in Marrakech with Juergen Teller alongside look-alike Latvian (female) model Ginta Lapina. Born in Tuzla, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Pejic and his family fled the war-torn region in the Nineties before settling as refugees in Melbourne, Australia."

This spring, you won´t be able to ignore skirts and dresses with a midi or maxi length. And whats better than the feeling of a soft fabric flapping slightly around your legs!

Open your eyes and there was someone else

Your brown eyes are my blue skies.
They light up the rivers that the birds fly over.
Better not to quench your thirst.
Better not to be the first one diving in,
though you caught me and you know why
you breathe in the deepest part of the water.
