breakfast

 Have you ever notice that the breakfast has a strange fascination on bloggers and became a theme to write about and to take pics of  very often? The question is "Why and how a mug and a cookie look so special?"  Mmmmm, maybe because some of that  are original and cute...

A surrealistic-Dada-Post about style icons.

Joyce Polance. Spill, 2010.

Sometimes i think about the concept of style icon. Blogs, mags and zines, people in general, use to choose this actress or that fashion editor as THE QUEEN (sometimes THE KING) of style. A person with a lot of influence in daily routine of million girls all over the world. “It girls”, wear  “it bags”, wearing THE shoes and so on. And OMG and LOL. 
And yes, sometimes this pop flu's flow, drawing a giant “?” over my head. (But actually, not very often).  -stop making sense-
Anyway, there's a post to end. I'd like to write something clever about the trend to spend period of time choosing the right color for the socks, and the right cryptic/broken smile for the instagram shot...And OMG and LOL are not enough anymore. 
These Icons seem to give anyone the felling of being part of a cool gang without even knowing each other. A void tribe where anyone, thanks to a bag or a pair of shoes, can be beautiful and then accepted and then, at least, beloved. You already know this? Well, I'm glad about it.
This is not a new concept, but is still true. Tryin' to figure out with my thoughts, I'm loosing myself between the possibility to choose righter icons than other (I mean, Patty Smith rather then lindsay lohan, or kim Gordon instead of The last blonde-blogger-with -Birkin and stilettos...)and the belief that there are no right ones 'cause young girls could find their style in their selves looking for their inner unicity. Meanwhile I feel myself politically correct...and I hate being that way... And in some way I love fashion too.....

"After centuries of conditioning of the female into the condition of perpetual girlishness called femininity, we cannot remember what femaleness is. Though feminists have been arguing for years that there is a self-defining female energy, and a female libido that is not expressed merely in response to demands by the male, and a female way of being and of experiencing the world, we are still not close to understanding what it might be. Yet every mother who has held a girl child in her arms has known that she was different from a boy child and that she would approach the reality around her in a different way. She is a female and she will die female, and though many centuries should pass, archaeologists would identify her skeleton as the remains of a female creature."

...Words that invite us to ponder. And ponder, and ponder....

All men have secrets and here is mine. So let it be known
 For we have been through hell and high tide
I think I can rely on you ... And yet you start to recoil 
Heavy words are so lightly thrown

But still I'd leap in front of a flying bullet for you

So, what difference does it make ? It makes none But now you have gone
And you must be looking very old tonight

The devil will find work for idle hands to do
I stole and I lied, and why ? Because you asked me to !
But now you make me feel so ashamed Because I've only got two hands

 Well, I'm still fond of you...

So, what difference does it make ?

Oh, what difference does it make ? Oh, it makes none But now you have gone

And your prejudice won't keep you warm tonight

Oh, the devil will find work for idle hands to do
I stole, and then I lied Just because you asked me to
But now you know the truth about me You won't see me anymore
Well, I'm still fond of you.

But no more apologies
No more, no more apologies
Oh, I'm too tired
I'm so sick and tired
And I'm feeling very sick and ill today
But I'm still fond of you....

I Can't sleep.
Just roaming around the house and around the web. Watching my eyes turning into panda's style.
I feel lonely like an endangered species.

Even Cowgirls get the blues

Have you see the Wildfox s/s campaign yet? I'm sure you did. Nice. Cute. Pink. And 90's.

(Everything is so 90's by now, and 90's was so “70's wannabe”... I'll speak about this in a dedicated post)

Less “indie” than other, it reminds us to the clouds and dust of Van Sant's movie, but cuter, and pinker . The models look more like hot chicks than Tuff Cowgirls.

Have you see the movie? I don't think it's the Van Sant's weakest film as claimed, but the novel witch is based on is actually on another level.

Sissy and Bonanza Jellybean
aka
Uma Thurman and River Phoenix

So...Most Important: Have you read the book?

Tom Robbins's feminist anarchic manifesto “even cowgirls get blues”, 1973

If you don't, I envy you the opportunity of read it for the very first time, 'cause you still have all the roads to cross in Sissy Hankshaw's eyes and all psychedelic adventures to live through Tom Robbins' pen.

American counterculture and early '70s values come flooding back like a peyote-induced dream in his words

- Chink: "Good! You seem much more in balance!"
Sissy: "But one (thumb - again, read the book) is huge and the other is little!"

Chink: "You're making a common mistake. You're confusing symmetry with balance." -

Early dawning Monday morning

monday morning / Praise the dawning. 

It's just a restless feeling by my side

Watch out the world's behind you, there's always someone around you who will call.

 It's nothing at all.

Tales from the Underground

Have you ever dreamt about shoes?

Of course you did! But that's my blog, so let's talk about me mE ME...

Last night I dreamt of -San Pedro It all seems like yesterday, not far away (chorus twice) La la la la la la la-  this Iconic piece of history. Ladies and Gentlemen,

...TADAAA! Underground shoes. 

"Underground is an authentic British Rock n Roll Brand that kicked into life in the 1980’s with a collection of a punk inspired footwear and continuing to the present day in a strong music inspired vein.(...)"

As you can see (and admire) I prefer creepers, but there are other cool models - here is their site. They have a good blog too. And, at last but not least, a shop on line...-

I'm not sure about the colour. I love this double sole

 mmm...mumble...mumble...Maybe I prefer this one 

...Or this one...

I hope to show you soon how gorgeous they are on my feet ! ( Before of becoming of a real pathologic obsession...eh eh eh)
