"flying houses" by Laurent Chéhère

2013-07-02T17:05:00.001+02:00

Today inspired me the amazing artwork from Laurent Chéhère....so I wanted to share with you some of his stunning pictures! This series is called "flying houses".

Inspired by the forgotten neighbourhoods in Paris, Chéhère brilliantly highlights the unsung beauty and details of the architecture! via laurentchehere

Elegance is refusal

2013-01-29T18:29:00.002+01:00

I'm in love with the new Balmain Pre-Fall 2013 Collection!

There were minidresses pieced together from mosaics of brown leather lacquered to look like the Oriental screens in Vreeland's office; double-breasted blazers worn without pants that were cut from multicolor, metallic-shot jacquards; chiffon halter dresses in a burnished bamboo print; and more velvet, suede, and lamé than the editrix could wear in a year.

Rousteing made it all look modern with Balmain's trademark, sky-high hemlines and the boxy, masculine cut of his jackets. This time around the tailoring had a distinct Japanese look with obi belts, wrap closures, and sculptural, rounded sleeves. Pants could be second-skin tight, or loose and flowing in a directional sarouel style, which felt more Arabic. "I love to mix cultures—that's my thing," Oliver Rousteing said.

Good job...

SPIKE LEOPARD DIY

2012-05-05T12:03:00.001+02:00

I just finished a new DIY!

Spiked my leo slippers;-) It was so easy and a lot of fun. Now I need a gun license to wear them!

What do you think?

You maybe realised that my face looks massive;-)....I had an allergic reaction and had to go to the doctor cause it was swollen so badly....but now it is getting better.

Hope I'll have my old face back in a few days.

You need:

-Spikes...bought mine on ebay

-leo slippers, these are from Deichmann

-sharp scissors or any sharp and thin tool

now just search for the right position, use the scissor and push a hole into the slipper, after that push the bolt right threw and screw the cone on top...

ready:-)

DIY waxed Denim

2012-04-14T13:11:00.000+02:00

waxed Denim looks so great, you can wear it with nearly every style and it gives your outfit an extra wow effect and it is so easy to do it by yourself...

How to: DIY Waxed Denim

You will need:

-Heavy Duty Fabric Wax - otherwise known as Otter Wax ($10 bucks!)
-Hair dryer
-Jeans

1. Lay your denim on a flat work surface. Starting from the bottom of your jeans, rub the wax in even strokes covering the entire surface.
2. Use your hairdryer to soften wax and smooth out with your fingers to create an even surface and create a waterproofing seal.
3. Hang your jeans in a cool-dry place for 24 hours to let the wax set.

Done!
