What is not to love about such gorgeously decadent editorial?! The late 70's/early 80's revival, paired with the New Romantic glamour, took my breath away. Add an androgynous quirk to the wacky outfits and you'll have one of the coolest fashion editions of the year.

Apaixonei-me por este editorial, que tão bem equilibra glamour com decadência. O revivalismo dos finais dos anos 70 e começo da década de 80, combinado com o carisma New Romantic, deixou-me em brasa. A extravagância andrógina das indumentárias acrescenta um toque especial à que eu considero uma das melhores edições do ano.

Baby, it's hot outside.

Salty sweat sticks to skin, while sun burns with its neverending light rays... How can anyone love Summer?! The season I hate the most, as heat, sunlight and tan are not welcome, and so aren't the colossal cockroaches that come up from the gutter at night, due to the nocturnal temperature. Besides, Summer does not mean holidays... at least, not for me.

O pegajoso suor salgado agarra-se à pele, enquanto o sol queima na sua infinitude de raios de luz... Como é que se pode gostar do Verão!? A estação que mais detesto, tendo em conta que o calor, a luz solar e o bronzeado não são bem-vindos, isto para não falar das grotescas baratas que patrulham a rede de esgotos e que resolvem de lá sair na calada da noite, devido à temperatura convidativa. Ainda para mais, Verão não é sinónimo de férias... pelo menos no meu caso.

This is what happens when you put a highlighter in the microwave in case you were wondering. 

Did you know there is a giant inflatable Mr.Darcy floating in Hyde Park? Oh, Lord!

I loved Tilda Swinton's attitude towards Russia’s new anti-gay propaganda bill.

Jennifer Jason Leigh was beyond brilliant as the awesomely witty and alcohol-fueled Dorothy Parker in Mrs. Parker and The Vicious Circle. An unforgettable role in one of the greatest biopics ever seen.

These are what I call soulmates.

Here's a lovely DIY idea for brogue lovers.

Cars And Films by Jesús Prudencio. A series of movie posters about iconic cars and films.

I'm awestruck at The Underwater Project by Mark Tipple.
