Monday find
Love this new, David Lynch-inspired boutique with a focus on hip, Argentinian designers: UNMO, Passion Fruit, Carolina Aubele, Sibilia, Think Pink, Neon, Costansoup, Papas y Ruido, Lovely Louisa, Sr. Icecram, Juli Santini, Guadalupe Martirena, EUPHORIA, among others.
The small boutique has high energy. The mix of cool materials such as metal (used in the rocket-like dressing rooms) and wood, make it's interior design as interesting and fun as the objects and clothes found inside.
I loved these lamps (first photograph) made to honor Minoru Yamasaki, an architect best known for his design of the twin towers of the World Trade Center. There's only 100 of these lamps.
Check it out! you'll like it.
Where? Arce 941, Las Cañitas
Thanks to Bruno the person in charge of the boutique for his kindness!

Happy New Year!!
I'm sorry that I haven't been posting so often, but I'm taking a little (much needed) break in Uruguay.
Although I usually stay in José Ignacio, this time I'm staying at "la brava" which is super beautiful also and I'm loving every second. The weather has been glorious!! luckily.
I'll be posting more often soon, but I wanted to wish you a happy New Year!! hope 2011 was amazing and that 2012 brings lots of love, joy, magic and success into your lives!

that little dress

Starting today, you can go see "Denominador Común" a photography exhibition curated by Eva Grinstein, which has María Lizaso's designs as a common denominator.
María is a Buenos Aires based architect turned fashion designer with a passion for art and photography.
Inspired by Marías work, fifteen photographers got together to present their particular views on her designs through an image.
The highlight, I think, is one of María's dresses hanging on a wooden structure in a separate space from the main exhibit room.
Where? Braga Menéndez Arte Contemporáneo
Humboldt 1475, Palermo.
Dress by María Lizaso.

Ale Bascuas, William Kano, Sol Abadi, Nora Lezano, Gisela Filc, Juan Vaz, Basilio Silva, Tom & Cherry, Rodolfo Schmidt + Jazmín Calcarami, Edgardo Delfino, Pablo Franco, Natasha Ygel y Gustavo Di Mario.

Three cool looks by Benito Fernandez.
Inspiration: La Habana, Cuba, setting he chose for the W2011 campaign.
(by the way, isn't it great that soon Cubans will get to travel?)
See more of this collection here.

Cause beauty is a state of mind
The other day I was watching someone interview a famous make-up artist here in Buenos Aires. She provided some really great advice regarding all the new trends in make-up and skin care. I was very interested in listening to everything she had to say, as I'm pretty bad with make-up. In fact, I hardly ever wear anything except lip gloss and sometimes, eyeliner. Ok, maybe some concealer too.
But what I really liked is that when she was asked about the best tips she could provide in a few words for great looking make-up, Regina K. said something like "no matter how much make-up we put on, or how well the colors we use match our skin, the only way to look truly beautiful is to feel good!" pretty obvious, don't you think? to be well with ourselves, happy, healthy. She said: "no make-up can cover-up your state of mind". I loved this! cause I often think about those ladies that look like a cake with so much stuff on their faces, or women who go out and get Botox like there's no tomorrow!! studies have found that it can become an addiction. Same with operations. And, you know what? some of them look great, but not the ones that do it as a remedy for sadness, emptiness, or lack of affection, whatever. The ones that look fabulous, I think, are women who feel great!! women who eat well, do sports, drink water, have good skin care habits, it reflects like crazy, it's a special light one has, that makes us look beautiful.
To feel good is to look good! So maybe next time we plaster make-up on our faces, or think about getting yet another shot of Botox (something I still haven't done) notice how I said still!!? maybe think about it... do I really need this?
No one said that getting Botox and operations is a bad thing, on the contrary, thanks scientists and surgeons for helping us look gorgeous!! as long as we don't forget that true beauty comes from within.
