Thunder only happens when it's raining..

♪♫ It's only me who wants to wrap around your dreams and
have you any dreams you'd like to sell.
Dreams of loneliness like a heartbeat, drives you mad
in the stillness of remembering
what you had, and what you lost ♫♪

♪♫ Dreams - Fleetwood Mac ♫♪

Last Tuesday the weather wasn't incredibly hot, it was 'just hot', so I took my son to his music classes, when we got out we took some photos.
I don't really find the right moment to dress up in this weather, I just stay at home in my pyjamas with the electric fan on so I don't die.

Shorts: OshKosh B'gosh.
Camisole: Cómo Quieres que te Quiera.
Bag: Angelic Pretty.
Boots: DreamV.
Accesories: Chocomint.

I don't know much about gyaru, but now that I look the photo this is a very gyaru inspired outfit, isn't it?

And some photos with my boy, too!

Inspiration: KERA streetsnaps (June 2011)

Yesterday I brought you some of my favourite Zipper coordinates, now I bring you my favourite KERA streetsnaps for June, although these photos were taken way before June and probably don't represent the street in Japan at the moment since some of them have too much clothes on!!

I used to love this magazine a lot, but it became boring long time ago because the coordinate are always the same, but the snaps tens to be great, and that's what I'm bringing you!

My favourite ones are the last two (especially RinRin, whose hair I covet; maybe I can do something like that considering the facts.. xDD), and the couple, they are always on the snaps and they are always so cute together!!

Inspiration: Zipper Coordinates (June 2011)

Some coordinates from the June number of Zipper magazine, I really like this magazine because of the mix of styles, nothing is too edgy or definite, every coordinate has their own style.
These are my favourites, but I'm in love with the sailor themed ones and the preppy one!!

It feels like Summer..

Summer it's here, and even if I hate the season itself, the clothes and the general concept inspires me a lot.
So inspired by all the images on the blog Girls are Made of Sugar, I bring you my vision of summer; vintage bathing suits, trailers, road trips, ferris-wheels and of course; the beach!

Brand: syrup for Disney

The brand syrup has made a collaboration with Disney before, featuring Bambi, which I loved; and this time for summer they bring us a collaboration featuring Dumbo!!

I love elephants, and I love Dumbo, this collection is super cute in every way!

My favourite pieces are the white dress, the socks, the scarf, the hoodie, the blue striped cutsew and the green skirt

Movies I want to live in # 2: Picnic at Hanging Rock

On Saturday 14th February 1900 a party of schoolgirls from Appleyard College picknicked at Hanging Rock near Mt. Macedon in the state of Victoria.
During the afternoon several members of the party dissapeared without trace...

Picnic at Hanging Rock is an Australian mistery movie directed by Peter Weir, adapted from the novel of the same name written by Joan Lindsay published on 1967.
The movie is about a group of students, that dissapear after being attracted to a rock, in Australia in the year 1900.

The pace of the movie is marked by the recurrent feeling of anxiety created by the constant images of the rock itself and the Australian vegetation.
To increase this whimsical feeling there are, the sometimes, disjointed but intriguing dialogues.

One of the things I liked the most about this movie is the way is told, even if it looks it's based on real story, it's not, it's just an adaptation of the novel.
The OST (which I'd love to get), is very mystical, full of bagpipes and sounds that give you goose bumps and help create an environment full of mystery.
The relationship between the students, how they live St.Valentine's Day; the first scene; everything is so romantic, so sweet and dream-like.

"What we see and what we seem are but a dream, a dream within a dream."
