♥ Sunday Best ♥ #12

This cover proves that Debbie Harry will be forever cool.

LOVE this photo! Ellen Von Unwerth captured these ladies in a way I could describe as "black widows go gangster squad".

This is a cute print!

I can't imagine my kitchen without them.

Brazilian artist Odires Mlászho has created these book sculptures, using massive volumes of Encyclopedia Britannica.


One of my favorite runway shows: Alexander McQueen Spring/Summer 2005. Checkmate!

Anatoly Rakhimbaev took this shocking photo: father and son addicted to heroin. Degrading.

What I love about this outfit is that looks so simple yet so cool.



Wishlist: Welcome Summer!

Girls on Film


Girls on Film



I've done this photoshoot quite a while ago but only now I am blogging it. I tried to capture the female essence at its rawest, in the beach and in the woods. Instead of using a proper photographic filter, I covered the camera lense with my sunglasses for a warmer tone and I really liked how these pictures came out. I know the title is as cliché as it gets but you know, gotta love Duran Duran!

Esta sessão fotográfica não é assim tão recente mas só agora a partilho no blog. Eu tentei captar a essência feminina revestida a cru, na praia e em zonas arborizadas. Em vez de utilizar um filtro fotográfico profissional e adequado, muni-me  dos meus óculos de sol, conferindo um tom mais quente (diria morno, vá) às imagens, e gostei bastante do resultado final. Bem sei que o título é cliché até dizer chega mas, quem é que não gosta de Duran Duran?
