Hey all. I have posted this pic above on my Instagram before, but I only managed to write a review now. It's so impressive that this German brand I Like Paper is making so many things out of paper - Kindle cases, smartphone cases, wallets and even watches. They don't really feel like paper because they have some rubber/plastic touch, but especially the watch you can notice it's paper for real for the thickness of the bracelet. I really liked it, but I thought that the prints were too colorful. They actually have many artists featured there, so you can pick any of their artworks to be the print on your items. I picked all the same, this Butterfly Effect print that looks like a tradicional illustration made with pencil.
What a week!! :) Most of the times when I stay in São Paulo during the weekends I like to do a lot of things and enjoy all the events the city offers for you. Too bad the subway tickets are a bit expensive if you want to make a little tour around the city, but well... It was my birthday this week, on Wednesday, but I got cold and spent most of the day doing bureaucratic stuff for my enrollment to the PhD. Yes, it's definitely happening now! :) Afterwards I visited my relatives and went back to my mother's house to see my cat and recover my energies. Lucky enough I recovered until yesterday, when I joined a conference about virtual reality, in which I lectured about how science fiction can be inspiring (and has already inspired, in fact) scientific innovations. It was amazing!
Hey! I'm not going to write much today, but I wanted to show you this gorgeous shirt I received from Light in the Box. I always saw this model either in outfit posts from other bloggers or maybe the reference from Saint Laurent, so then I wanted to have my own bow shirt. I remember when I was 15 and I did a cosplay of Ryutaro Arimura of Plastic Tree, back in the time when he used to wear a more child-like/androgynous style, and I even got my hair cut like his and such. I didn't have so many resources for buying different clothes in 2005 and I didn't know any seamstress that could do a good job and that I could afford, so I remember that I got a random piece of black fabric and ripped everything to make the bow hahaha... good times, except not.
Hey all. New outfit here. I received this cute chain necklace from Lightinthebox a couple of weeks ago and last week I had the chance to take some new pics for the blog. I was always curious about this style of necklace, since I loved to add it in my collages for outfits, but never had the chance to wear one of these myself. Most of the times I relate this style to hip hop rather than something grunge or even punk, though they used to wear necklaces like that, including a lock too. Classic punk accessory, in fact. But I decided to put it in a grunge/streetstyle here, in combination with a round skater dress from Forever 21.
Funny story: after I posted the first 4 brands from Instagram last week, there was a wave of brands following me there lol... so I guess it should be interesting to keep sharing and spreading the news? Today I'll be focusing on four Portuguese-speaking brands, that is, 3 from Brazil and 1 from Portugal.
Engraçado, depois que postei a primeira lista de 4 marcas no Instagram na semana passada, teve uma leva de perfis de marcas me seguindo no Instagram hahaha... Então imagino que seja interessante continuar compartilhando por aqui? Hoje o foco está em quatro marcas que falam português, isto é, três do Brasil e uma de Portugal.
Well, you know. When you are a fashion blogger and you are on Instagram, you're basically a landing page for brands. They follow you and then you may follow them back, buy from them or spread the word about their work. I decided to post a list of the most interesting ones I have been following, so you could know about them too. Today I'm going to feature 4 examples, both Brazilian and American, from jewelry to apparel and decor.
