Because we girls are all in a panic attack, right?
Watch more cool animation and creative cartoons at Aniboom
This all about how hard is to experiment been a girl and our hard and freak journey to the success in a contemporary time...we all know...let's not panic! hehehe
For those days that we want to get away of the electronic parties...
The Brassroots’ show last Thursday at the Rich Mix bar showed that the live music and the venue goes very well together and can be a option for the east end people when they want to get away a bit of the electronic nights.
I have to say that i also like some instrumental music a part of our good techno/ electro of every day..lol. The band formed in 2008, among the streets of East London, showed us a impressive groove and energy on stage.
The group of musicians made from a variety different countries and backgrounds including England, Israel, France, Greece and America, brought an unbelievable real live instrumental performance to the venue.
They presented some of the well known pop music in a unique and challenging format and style such as some classics of Radiohead and some others in a bag of goodies.
A part of the music i could check it out some people that has been there at the London east end cinema and they prove to have a bit of style ...some more than the others...of course...hahaha
Check it out this couple that i found seating in the corner. I loved their rock and unique style and i am sure that it should be a kind of normal basic outfit for them! Hahaha a simple look to walk around till the east London cinema. They reminded me a bit of Lennon and Yoko Ono ( if she would have a blondie European style). The amazing is how they didn't get embarrassed with the picture...they may be use to it! kk
I like the pink boots...well i like pink anyway as you can see it. But i never wear pink in my outfits as my good Swedish friend Tove ( i miss her) used to. I personal rather the red if i want to look feminine, it is a bit fatale....ulala.. Normally i like to see the pink in the decoration, in the walls or things ( ah.. and in the lipstick! Makes a doll look! So adorable! i have my days of the mood for sure too) People can notice my fascination with the coulor when they come to visit me in my lovely flat at Shoreditch. For some reason that makes me happy and relief from the dark and cruel world outside...hehehe
Well getting back to the people at that day...
Doesn’t matter the age people can still dance with the groove ...and have the style! And sometimes even more like this lady! I like that attitude and i absolutely loved the print in her shirt combined with the jeans! Very colorful and funky! Vintage from the late 60’s and beginning of 70’s.
Those two appeared to be having a great fun...
The girl on the left catched my attention with the doll look made from the white lace dress, the pink make up on the cheeks giving a light outfit but the bleached hair can also add a aggressive tone to the look... which i like it! light and aggressive at the same time... sexy! I am kind of finding girls sexy at the moment...lol
We Londoners love glasses,glasses and glasses ...any type! It because we all want to look more intelligent and smart than we actually and we try to prove the world with a pair of frames. Is a good way to showed yourself a bit cult or intellectual even if when you are not at all. The trick works! Especially to come to a cinema and an alternative live band show or culture centre...oh..yeah...let's talk about films while we get pissed. 'I got my glasses so i am able for that now'...hehe
Also the jean shirt and the leather jacket is a simple and classic combination which works at any time! Trust me! Was a good look but sometimes girls around Shoreditch should be more original i think!
I got a bit impressed by the type of instruments...looked amazing...bye!

Who said that sex cannot be connected to love?
Hey all! walking on some of the streets in east London...if i am not wrong close to Columbia road me and Mauricio Stein, one of my friends, found this great drawing another day which shows that actually a good dick can be also a sort of love for many of the east end people... or maybe a reason of..hahaha..bye!

How to keep your one night stands in any age!
Hey guys! Just a quick one... everything was fine when yesterday my friend told me that she saw an article at the newspaper which confirmed that finding a love in London is more rare than find some Aliens around!
She was really worried about it! I don't know why??
They may be joking! That's not truth at all! This all about pessimist people...
After seeing the Diesel campaign i felt more ok about being a single girl in London...unless if i don't have a cool jeans! kk i don't even know why i am saying that i personal don't wear jeans that much...only tights and dresses..hehe but anyway....i admit that it has its credits...
According to the campaign, with a good pair of jeans you can still rock it around the bars for a long time!! It is all about the approach and the style! And you may find a truth love at least for one night! And that night can become a long term one! Let's keep it up, right? hahahahaha
Also there is no age for a "cool and rock in roll" lol girl to take out the initiative!!!! Blah!!

Getting Noughtie at the Rich Mix
The exhibition Noughtie Nighlife had its launch last Thursday, 9th September , at Rich Mix cinema, Shoreditch, London. With the intention to show the fashion, faces and attitudes of cult London club nights, Noughtie Nightlife celebrates the first decade of the new century through the images that tell the story of the clubbing nights in a shocking, stylist and irreverent way.
The cinema was for sure the clubber’s spot during the fashionist evening.
The pictures show legendary nights such as Kash Point, Nag Nag Nag, Trash, Anti-Social, All You Can Eat, Durrr, Smash & Grab, Boombox, Circus, secretsundaze and Caligula reporting a generation of clubbers ( called the cool kids) who embraced the rapidly expanding world of digital technology and social networking and emerged as a hybrid mix ‘n’ match style tribe, both in terms of music, fashion and cultural beliefs.
The rule is to express yourself with colors, make-ups, heels, outfits and amazing jackets and accessories.
Antony Price, curator of the London College of Fashion and one of the events’ organizer and supporters says the pictures encapsulates the feelings and creativity that the London scene fostered through images taken by the fashion photographers, also clubbers and trend setters.
According to him the images is a document of the vivid, bold, daring and flamboyant characters that made the scene so unique and turned London into the world’s premier example of cutting-edge fashion, music and street-style crossover.
The Launch had a public mixed of fashion students, photographers, djs, party animals and the Shoreditch crew which normally goes to places. Many of people could see themselves or some friends at the pictures, being able to remember some of the great nights that doesn’t happen any longer. The funky , cool and sexy images represented the approach of the art to the music and fashion a part of a mix of some androgynous, vintage, geek, punk, grunge and clubbers styles which you can see on the east London’s streets and party scene.
The exhibition in its own is a picture of a generation of people molded by the strong music and fashion culture of London and its clubs. Also reflects all the freedom’s aspiration in a sexual, physiologic and sociological way experimented by the cool kids along the past 10 years of clubbing nights in a nearly obscene context.
The boldness of the images, the make-up and color remind a bit of the 90's of the film "Party Monster" once that scene portrayed at the movie still exists at the present moment of the new century at the London's clubs. But the scene now a part of the same obsession for the fashion got the digital technology on the top making the movement even faster in spreading your tendencies around the world.
Was a great opportunity to meet some of the work of the fashion photographers such as Billa Baldwin, Ellis Scott, Matthew Brindle/Thom Will (MEGAMEGAMEGA.com), Christopher James (weknowwhatyoudidlastnight.com), Rory DCS, James Unsworth, Alex Warren, Rai Royal, Wade Fletcher and Mr Hartnett/Suzy Del Campo/David Swindells (PYMCA).
After the gallery session and the drinks reception for a selection of people invited, the public could enjoy a bit of the Warboy’s set, one of the producer of the Caligula night, which happens every Fridays at the Bassing house club at Shoreditch.
On the right side the dj and producer of the Caligula night, Jimmy Warboy.
For those who couldn’t make it for the Launch the photos will be exposed at the mezzanine of the Cinema till 2nd October having a symposium afternoon on the 22th September with Ted Polhemus, David Swindells.

As i was working organizing the event i could take pictures of some of the people that have been there!
Check it out some faces and styles!
The dark hair, red lipstick together with the jeans and leather is always a key for the rock'n roll style.
The piercings and tattoos is always present in the shoreditch's boys look.
The Mickey Mouse's print jumper brought something fun and irreverent to the outfit together with the colored shorts. Purple and blue goes very well.
The white t-shirt with jeans is always great.
The vintage style is still a very strong tendency with the stripe shirt and the geek frame glasses.
Some people took the idea of dressing up a little bit more serious and i loved it!
A Clean and minimalist look can be elegant too.
The punk is another style found on the streets of Shoreditch. The caps, hoods, piercings, dark colors and the black eye liner remind a bit of the Sex Pistols' time.
The casual is cool too. On the right one of the photographers, Ellis Scott.
The 3 sexy ones.
the super short dress is a sexy option for the clubbing nights and with the leather belt gets a bit more style. The long hair in this case make the look even sexier.
Colors, different prints, colors and colors again. The superimposition of prints is super in.
The freak outfit brought a bit of the Tokyo clubbing kids' style to the London's gallery.
So the art is cool and the cool is art too! I guess...

Some of the looks at the Off set Festival London
The Offset festival in Hainault Forest, east London, last weekend wasn't all about music and also a lot about outfits as normal. As a kind of summer's farewell festival of this year, what we could most see it around were for sure the shorts and t-shirts making a very relax atmosphere. The jeans and jumpers were also there welcoming the Autumn/Winter.
The open air event brought up the flowers prints, lights fabrics and sexy styles mixing up with the accessorizes such as sun glasses, backpacks, necklaces and begs. But as a good London's festival the leather and tights were still there as always in the londoner style.
I wasn't even planning to go there ( i swear! lol) but a friend of mine called me to try to jump into it. We got there and managed to find some tickets on the floor (as we always do) and then we were in. I am not going to say about the part that i broke my heel ( that's the worse thing that can happen to a girl...its like loosing one of your weapons! hahahaha no i am not exaggerating!) and...well i just broke the other one and then i could be in flats shoes...even better for the festival!
I got a bit surprised with the mix of the line up which was a sort of eletro, indie, clash, art rock, post punk, noise, Lo-Fi and even hard core which was the most crowed tend ( i particularly don't like it, just feel myself smashing my head against the wall, but i understand that can be a sort of therapy for some people..lol). But i must admit that some of the rock bands at the main stage i kind of liked and i found really cool the way that they mixed the rock with a bit of electronic. Some i found a bit similar to prodigy. But let's not talk about that because i must admit that i don't feel confident enough to opine about them and for that reason we stayed most of the time of course at the Trailer Trash tend with the good eletro-tecno/house/disco because that is what we like it most.
And in there i could find those people which they looked to me to be having a dam fun a part of having o good taste for clothes. In the summer time there is always that question: What is the best look for a festival? Some real people answered to us with their styles...check it out. Because i don't talk here about chessy celebrities and stuff i like to talk about real trendy people's style on the streets, at the clubbing and their lifestyle.
ps: i just need to learn how to delete this stupid date from my camera...lol i forgot to check it...but it is still valid..
That was a sexy and casual look with the states flag shorts ( i don't know why but the flags prints are back. I have seem a lot. I don't particularly like it, find a bit cheesy, but this look was good with the black cardigan and her summer tan.)
A bit more well behaved in a school girl look with the high socks, the jean jacket and the pastel bag that is a perfect comfortable,cool casual outfit for a festival.
Again the shorts in a black denin and the leper blouse with the black tights reminding a bit of a night look.
Again and again the jeans shorts with the flowered print t-shirt and also the guy's jumper was great.
That was a simple outfit but with the charming of the 60's polka dots print jumper and the jean backpack which is a trendy option if you want to carry all of your very important stuff with you! lol
That was sexy! Congrats to my new friend Ellen Grace Jones which was wonderful in her shorts with the black leather shirt and the golden necklace. The red vintage style bag made the dark outfit a bit more lively and even sexier going well with the lip stick. Attention to the sun glasses too! She rocked!
My friend Rafa! He is always great in his irreverent vintage look. With his green forest high west shorts and flowered t-shirt with the black jumper and glasses making a geek look. I love the geeks like one my favorites bands from Sao paulo CSS.
The designer Richard was great with his black and withe t-shirt with a print of interesting mix of formats giving something a bit futuristic for the look but at the same time a bit minimalist per the combination of the dark and lights. That's a classic which always goes right!
Julius as a lot of people know looked very cute in his chess shirt with the jean (again) waistcoat, the black skinny jeans and the brow boots which is perfect for a day time outfit and very comfortable for festivals also a bit vintage. He looked like a good London boy! lol
well the rest i can't show you more like pictures of the bands and stuff ( anyway this official contents you can check it at the off set festival http://offsetfestival.co.uk/) because you know from there i start getting really into the festival...if you know what i mean! Thau!

My boyfriend's shoes is better on me
Yeah unfortunately summer seems to be finishing and for the winter let's get in their wardrobe and steel their shoes!!
They can give a lot more of style in many of the looks in leather, varnished, with details or in plain colours. Classic, vintage, rustic or trendy, you can choose. A part of super comfortable they still can make up the outfit sophisticated for the girls even if without the heels.
I absolutely love them!! check it out some good ones!!
They can go very well in this outfit with the high wast trousers, the skinny belt, the waistcoat, the jean shirt and the coat over sized which is going to be very in this winter. That's for sure a clean, cool sophisticated and casual look at the same time!
With the simple and good black coat with stripes details.
That would be an amazing feminine option!!
With a bit of lively colors...there's no way to not look at this shoes!
For those who like something a bit more different.
The classic black and white is always a right combination.
They can be flat unisex or with heels for the short girls to be used with dresses.
Who said you need to be on heels to be feminine?? The mannish and blokey shoes goes even with the flowers dresses building up a casual girly look and now for the winter with the pastel and dark colours back they can embrace the androgyny with cropped, ankle-baring cigarette pants in a sexy boyish outfit saying that there is no things that just boys can do like the old fashion rules used to say!!
It's a must in a londoner girl's wardrobe bringing up to the streets all of the indie, vintage, rockabilly thing..also a very clean look too.
