Stay tanned 365 days


Marina Pérez


I hate winter. Reasons:
  1. The days are shorter and everything is dark at 18:00 PM
  2. The weather is bad.
  3. I can't go to the beach or the swimming pool.
  4. My skin looks pale

I wish I looked tanned everyday. I look much better when my skin is darker. Even though it is not very healthy to sunbath a lot, sometimes it is good to get a little tan, using UV protection, of course.

So when I saw the make-up for the TCN show (I saw it backstage at Cibeles Madrid Fashion Week) I found the answer. Don't they look like they just spent a whole week sunbathing? It looks way better than the self-tanning creams. I might try it.

Michael Jackson - Stylish forever



I watched "This is it" last week and it is amazing... Michael was amazing. It is incredible how much effort he was putting into the concerts and how talented he was. He seemed to be a very kind person, he was always thanking everyone. I don't have words.

I recently found this great great great blog: Michael Jackson Style, with posts about almost every outfit Michael has worn. An endless source of inspiration. Check it, I'm sure you won't regret it.






I need a jacket like that one right now.

New style icon: Cassie (Hannah Murray) from "Skins"

skins, hannah murray, cassie

Everybody kept telling me that I had to watch Skins. And finally, I've succumbed to it. It is such an original tv series, and the characters are so unique and extravagant, with their exaggerated personalities. My favourite is Cassie, played by the cute Hannah Murray. Cassie is a girl with anorexia issues who is in love with Sid, who is in love with Michelle.

Cassie's style is brilliant. Extravagant and maybe a little cheesy, but brilliant. It is a version of Blair without the sobriety, but better. White tights with drawings, layers and layers of clothes, embroideries, clothes decorated with diamonds, child-like drawings for prints, golden shoes...

Después de que todo el mundo me insistiera en que viera Skins, por fin me he enganchado. Es una serie súper original y los personajes son todos muy peculiares, cada uno con su personalidad extraña y exagerada. Mi favorita es Cassie (Hannah Murray), una chica muy tímida con problemas de anorexia que está enamorada de Sid, que a su vez está enamorado de Michelle.

El estilo de Cassie es genial. Muy extravagante y un poco cursi, pero genial. Es una versión de Blair quitando la sobriedad, y mejor. Medias blancas con dibujitos, capas y capas de ropa, bordados, incrustaciones de piedrecitas y brillantes, estampados de dibujos infantiles, zapatos dorados...

here she is with Nicholas Hoult, who plays Tony in the series. He's the boy from "About a boy". It is amazing how much he's changed in seven years.
