BEST OF: AA de Amaya Arzuaga

Cibeles Madrid Fashion Week ended yesterday after six crowded days. I haven't had the pleasure of being a guest of the event, however I was able to see the catwalk pics by Internet. So I won't complain of my situation, and also of many others fashion amateurs.

These next days, I'll be showing you: the best ideas from some of the creative participants, of course from my point of view I'm already just a student.

Here today, I'm going to analize the collection from AA de Amaya Arzuaga (prêt à porter, s/s 2011).

     

The variety of colors this designer from Burgos uses are from

khaki to red, besides black, navy blue, grey, pastel pink, and 

a pinch of white. Asymmetric details are often in the group.

 

 

Lots of bodysuits, shorts and dresses in order to show our legs.

 As you can see, most of the garments are thight at the waist.

I love the left outfit: a draped short with a denim pleated-from-waist blouse.

The red dress represents the vertical short layered technique she utilizes.

 

 Draped clothes again with no pattern. Playsuits are a 

must-have according to AA. For the make-up, it's only been 

used a bright orange shadow either lipstick nor gloss.

Another characteristic is the bones that are used as an ornament 

on the garments. But it's also the main feature to stand out in the 

collection giving a funny 3D vision of those garments. I like the heels 

join to legwarmers too. In short, a young amusing silhouette and 

at the the same time elegant.

KNITTING! Keep me warm! (men fashion)

Winter is coming, and with it the cold. 

But are our wardrobes ready for it? Not yet, at least mine. 

So here I am in order to give some tips.

Well, I'll write just one tip by now.

I bet knitting sweaters for you guys.

Besides, in all his versions.

Turtleneck, hooded, crossed, V neck, 

round neck, snowy patterns, etc.

Draw conclusions by yourself, 

taking a look at the images.

Oh! Before going! 

I'll delight you with another tip.

Mix the kitting with colored skinny jeans or baggy jeans! 

And for your feet: these pairs of hairy boots!

I'd love to have one, don't you?

DESPLÚMATE

 Hecho de menos: escribir en español. Nunca me había pasado... Siempre me ha gustado hablar lo máximo posible en inglés ya que me encantaría ser inglesa, pero mi lengua innata quiere salir durante un rato y dejar así descansar a la otra parte del cerebro. 
Bueno pues ya explicada mi situación y el porqué de escribir en castellano, pasemos al asunto en cuestión. Hoy os hablaré de las plumas (feathers), tendencia que celebrará su aniversario en breve. Estos días, buscando nuevas ideas para el blog, han destacado las plumas. Por ejemplo paseando por las tiendas como Sfera con la falda rosa palo (2ª foto), de Zara o la pasarela de José Castro 2010 (3ª foto) que presentó en Cibeles Madrid y también en la pasarela South de Cádiz. Después de todo, 2010 ha sido un año cargado de plumas, con la puesta en la pasarela 2010 de Marchesa (1ª foto) y Giambattista Valli (4ª foto) entre otras.
Por último y no por ello menos relevante, la pasarela de Custo Barcelona s/s 2011 (5ª foto) este mes en Nueva York. Esta última fuente con coloridos y juveniles estampados, tejidos con efecto brillo gasas, vestidos asimétricos, flecos, todavía alguna lentejuela para la noche, una preciosa capa de flecos, escote triangular y transparencias para los hombres, y por supuesto plumas.

DEEP IN THE MEDINA OF FEZ

This photo, I took during my trip to Morocco, is my favorite among the ones I shoot at the Medina of Fez. I would like to take this opportunity to tell you what I saw in there.
First we started walking through the last built neighborhoods, 16th century. It was like going for a stroll in the past because the buildings are exactly as they were in their beginnings. Meanwhile we were going deep the maze, we found out awesome secrets: aged colors, spices smell all around, wires, fruits in every place mostly melons and prickly pears, children and teenagers selling souvenirs to the tourists, etc. Cartloads and donkeys were going crossed the way every other minute although it was funny. Once, a donkey slobbered in my arm, yuck! Haha C: Moreover, we learnt the leather making process. It smells strong that's why the guide gave us a sprig of mint. In the middle of the medine, 9th century, we saw the most crowded place on it. There were lots of people whether buying food for evening party (it wasa last week of Ramadan) or talking or praying in the mosque (we didn't get in, we just took a look from outside) or working on their sjops. By the way we saw man sewing djellaba by hand or the machine.

In conclusion, it was a wonderful experience in order to all the senses.

TEMPERLEY LONDON: a discovery

 

 I don't know whether I'm proving a lack of fashion culture with this post. 

Despite that, I'm going to present you a new brand that I've found out for the very first time. It's TEMPERLEY LONDON. This collection is from Spring/Summer 2010, besides it was presented at the New York Fashion Week. You're able to see the whole collection in Vogue's web. 
However I haven't said yet what I like from these pretty rags. The classic combination of black and white always goes nice. I love the print of the last photo, it seems a monochrome kaleidoscope. The collection is also full of studs and rough stones. There are lots of playsuits and thick threads making like spiderwebs. Although they use more colors apart from black and white, they are coral red and light blue. The gauze is common in the group of outfits. Moreover heads are usually covered with crowns and elegant turbans.

Firstly, Iman means magnet in Spanish.
