Lula's questionnaire

Ho trovato questo questionario nell'ultimo numero di Lula. Inutile, forse, ma molto divertente. Quindi ho deciso di "rubarlo" e di riproporlo ai miei lettori (ovunque e chiunque voi siate) per presentarmi. Anzi per presentarci, perchè sì, cari lettori non sono più da sola in questo mondo delle meraviglie e appena si saranno ambientate si presenteranno anche loro.
Il questionario è stato ideato da Kate Mulleavy (di Rodarte) che mi auguro non se la prenderà se lo condivido con voi.

I've found this questionnaire in the last issue of Lula. Maybe useless but very fun. So I decide to "steal" it and to write it again for my readers (whoever and wherever you are) to present myself. Or, better, to present "us", because, my dear readers, I am not alone anymore in this Wonderland and as soon as they will be comfortable I'm sure they will be glad to present themselves.
The questionnaire is a Kate Mulleavy's idea (from Rodarte) who, I hope, won't care if I share it with you.

Spirit by Visionaire

Conoscete Visionaire? Io sinceramente fino ad oggi no, perchè è un prodotto editoriale tanto di élite che una come me sull'ultimo gradino della scala alimentare non ne viene assolutamente sfiorata. Santa sia Nunzia Garoffolo (di Fashion Beyond Fashion) che stamattina in una riunione per un progetto (di cui vi parlerò più in là) me l'ha nominato.
Insomma Visionaire è una rivista quadrimestrale di moda e arte che in ogni numero sviluppa un tema (adoro, adoro, adoro). La creatrice è Cecilia Dean, qui ritratta nel blog The Selby (che adoro). Bellissime le scarpe. Louboutin?








Visionaire non è un magazine e nemmeno la possiamo definire una rivista per addetti ai lavori, ma è un prodotto di lusso, un volume da collezione in edizione limitata (tipo 1500 copie) che costa davvero un'esagerazione, tipo 295$. Sì, se li avessi sono soldi che spenderei. Ora non li ho ma li spenderei lo stesso per l'ultimo numero: Spirit. Dedicato alle memoria di Alexander McQueen. Hanno collaborato a questo numero personcine come Nick Knight, Lady Gaga, Mario Testino, Steven Klein....
Uffa lo voglio!
