E entao a vida muda...

Até onde podemos ir?

Até o limite do suportável.

Um belo dia, depois de inúmeras repetições do mesmo erro, a gente desiste.



Com tristeza pela perda, mas com alegria pela descoberta, diz pra si mesmo: cheguei até aqui.

E, então, a vida muda....









This is summer in the south of Brazil

and tomorrow Carnival holidays kick off...and I'm here, in the cold London (not so cold anymore...stop complaining Larissa!!!)

Forget the images, just close your eyes and turn up the volume.

I want it that way...

So cute...

20 again...

How to celebrate 20's? Maybe with a capsule collection, nice ha?

Christian Louboutin did just that- a capsule collection with 20 shoes, one celebrating each year.
I don't necessarily " fell in love" with all of them, but still worth having a look...
Undeniable...there is art in them. And from someone that works with design, it's worth saying: most of them are iconic.

The woman dress

I find it so cool how Miu Miu launches its accessories. The short movies are usually very intriguing and catchy...
I know some of you won't like it, or find it odd, but there is something about it that I quite enjoy, and that's not only the sunglasses...

Stealing...



You might really be
The very best woman to ever suit me
But I can't expect you to see how I see
'Cause sometimes I don't see a thing

But personal pressure is making me guess
My time's running out as we're both getting dressed
I don't know who's body I'd rather feel pressed
But I cannot arrest on my thoughts

(Chorus)
'Cause we had a good time
Then it was sorrow
I call it stealing
You call it borrow

So I want my heart back
If you're not gonna keep it
If you've got no uses
Then I'm gonna need it
And someone else
Is gonna need it too

While some of it's here
I'm wondering where did the rest disappear
The parts that I thought were the best are unclear
Or hiding there under your doubt
So maybe we'll call this a hard lesson leanred
But you're holding something that I'll need returned
If you need some time
I've got some to burn
But burning is just running thin

(Chorus)
'Cause we had a good time
Then it was sorrow
I call it stealing
You call it borrow

So I want my heart back
If you're not gonna keep it
If you've got no uses
Then I'm gonna need it
And someone else
Is gonna need it too

What would the point be
If we let this thing drag out
Failing to accept
These impressions passed around
Oh, you and I
It's been a wild ride
And I wouldn't change at all
But I'm gonna let you know

(Chorus)
We had a good time
Then it was sorrow
I call it stealing
You call it borrow

So I want my heart back
If you're not gonna keep it
If you've got no uses
Then I'm gonna need it
And someone else
Is gonna need it too


And again...she that is now taking a 5 years break...

Not many things get better than this...a snowy Saturday night!

So, tonight is the last saturday before my lovely friend Marcela leaves back to Brazil.
She and my brother decided to go downstairs and play in the snow while I was getting ready for our special night out.
My brother rang asking me to run and have a look outside the window. I got a bit annoyed because I thought "wth, I can not even take my time to get ready..." And then, he called again, again...I was about to stop answering the phone but then just decided to keep it simple and actually do what they were asking for...
And look at one of the most amazing and special gifts I have ever received...this is love...and love is priceless!!!
Thanks my beloved Memi and Marcela for making this snowy saturday very special! You 2 rock!






As a result, no cabs available, I was scared of driving and so we decided to stay in and cook!



It's so easy to make someone happy!
Thanks Ma and Memi!
LOL
