Have a nice Day, Claudine Esteban Cortázar (May 17, 1984) is a noted fashion designer. He was born in Bogotá, Colombia and grew up in Miami, Florida. Cortázar is the youngest designer to have shown at Miami International Fashion Week, where he decided for a talent show to host a fashion show. The child of jazz singer Dominique Vaughan and artist Valentino Cortázar, Esteban got his start in the fashion industry at 13 years of age when he showed sketches to Todd Oldham, a mentor he found under his apartment at Miami's News Café. While in New York for an Oldham show, Cortázar introduced himself to Bloomingdale's Director of Fashion Kal Ruttenstein, and soon afterward gave Ruttenstein a private showing. Cortázar studied fashion design at Design & Architecture Senior High in Miami's Design District, graduating in 2004.
In December 2007, Cortázar was appointed Head Designer at Emanuel Ungaro where he worked until he was fired in 2009, after refusing to work with Lindsay Lohan. Lohan was appointed Artistic Director, and Cortázar was replaced by Estrella Archs, who left Ungaro after one year due to irreconcilable differences related to the creative direction of the brand.

And, trust me ... this subject was really hot just at this moment on set! We talked about expensive tickets (because invitee gets just one ticket! So, no tickets for my photographer:-(), about plane tickets, hotels, NYC, about our friends in NY (who has a free room for us??:-)) and, and, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnd, up and down and uuuup and doooown again and again!:-) And the result? So, I was decided this time, that I'll not go:-( Yes, and I'm so sorry. I adore Lucky Magazine, I adore Conde Nast and I adore NYC! But I think I'm not ready yet. But, you know guys .... I'll be ready soon ... maybe next time :-) Many thanks to Lucky Magazine for this invite, it will be such a great conference, I know, all these bloggers from the whole world, but at this moment here and now, I realy can't go.

Well ... what can I say today to You, my dears? .. Sometimes life is very hard to you, relentless, unfair and cruel. You're trying to be good in all areas, but don't get anywhere. Why??? People who have them trusted, let you down. People, who ask them something nice and they know that you're good, let you down. People from whom you expect love, protection and understanding, they hit You in the back. Why??? I ask W.H.Y.??? Because, this is just me going. It would be better to be with others rude, short, selfish and close. But I didn't like that! My experience is, that the good people are always misfortune and the bad, cruel and cold have luck constantly! Why??? I don't know when life was up to me to last well, but all I know is - that today I wear the blue glasses - which I see blue, I see the Blue and watch blue. Blue is a noble - but ... not as rosy, isn't? Cheers! Have a nice day and be good to each other!

... bisous, bisous ... see yaa soon... Claudine Videos by Hedi Slimane/ Saint Laurent Hedi Slimane (french fashion designer and also ex artistic director of men collecton at YSL in 1996) portrayed personalities of the underground world of California or London and photographed for magazines, such as the Russian nd French edition of VOGUE. Now the designer has come back behind the camera for the first time and has directed for Saint Laurent. To celebrate the launch of the new "Saint Laurent Classic" Ballerina, Slimane has produced two videos that interpret the theme of dance and ballet in their own way and thus once again give the house Saint Laurent energy. In the first part of "Dance", the model Gracie van Gastel moves to the song "Trick or Treat Dancefloor" of Cherry Glazerr, while in the second part of "Dance" Lida Fox dance to the music of the singer. The presented ballerina Saint Laurent is part of the permanent collection and will be available in six colors for € 295 from November 2013. Text: source Vogue.de Have a nice Day,

Hi guys! How are you today? Fine? Yaa? What can I say to this post? Nothing else like, I just need some Transvision Vamp in this moment :-), You know: " I don't want your money honey, I want Your... LOVE ... I want your looooovee, I want Your L.O.V.E......" and again and again in chorus ... So really an awesome song from an awesome brit band from the past!:-D I loved this song and also "The Bad Valentine" and "I don't care" ..::-)) So have to say, was really a fan like a teenie!:-) But these songs are not for my kid! He likes Rock and Rap...You know, Metallica, Pink Floyd, Macklemore ...:-) I like all, but Transvison Vamp was in my time (as a teenie) real so decadent punky and I just adored the lead singer Wendy James and her attitude, she was sooo cool and stylish ... oh, it's so long ago...:-) Talk too much again, right?:-)... Well, my dears, this is The End of my triology:-) Are you enjoyed? Which part liked you the most? Okay, Anja Rubik is not included!:-) So, tell me .. let's comment. I promise the next post will be full of colours again and really effortless! Have a nice day, be punky and enjoy this September! Cheers! :-)

How are you today? I'm pretty good. Basketball Championship - EURO BASKET 2013 in Slovenia and in my hometown Celje is right now full in swing. Just in my area where I live, is a hall, where are games (watch tv:-)). So fingers crossed for our teams!:-) Ok. Today's post I dedicate to a little black dress or LBD in short (yes, I had also this LBD Gurlain pefume, it smells wonderful, but sorry, not wearing today - an another story :-)). This Zara LBD is basically an old, but currently totally topical! Just this A/W season are 60-ies so hot: mini skirts, A-line skirts, coats and jackets; B&W, lace, deep red, pink, leopard... so really bit retro, have to say. But I just adore this!!! You know, like in the old Hitchcock movies or in old french movies from Claude Chabrol, François Truffaut, Jean-Luc Godard - the french "New wave" or "La nouvelle vague". I really loved these movies like a little girl and adore a great style of Catherine Deneuve, Stéphane Audran, Ingrid Bergman, Grace Kelly, Tippi Hedren, Mia Farrow, Brigitte Bardot, Ava Gardner, Romy Schneider, Claudia Cardinale ... So, this season has also Valentino a wonderful collection of lacy black dresses with white crochet collars, what mean a strong touch and an influence of 60-ies and ... of Coco! Such a beautiful, classic and eternal. And so it is my old collection on this date:-) Old and ever new! Jewelry and bag (vintage) I have already presented in July. But anyway, that will be seeing in many of my future posts (like also this ZARA LBD!). I can't get enough of it because it's so simple, practical and timeless as just Coco and her big and great influence on the contemporary fashion - on the fashion today! And of course her perfume No. 5 (wearing today:-)). You remember my first August post? Right: I'm the Nr. 5, because of my birthday on 2.12.:-)! What else :-) In my next post I will show you the LBD, part II. I will say nothing at this moment. But I will present one another very hot style this season, with the same dress. I promise, it will be not boring, but it will be (I promised this, remember?!) in B&W optic!!:-) And now one more question for You, my dears. You're still here??:-) Earrings: Which you prefer in this post: black small or big Creoles? Oh, the collar! This is my artwork. One day, I hope that I will have soon my own online store just for you. I have some plans. Well I have only one thing in common with Coco:-) Hope you like it. Well, I'm going now. I talked toooo much this time and also sorry for my english!:-) Gosh, thank you for reading anyway... ... have a wonderful, wonderful day.... ... au revoir, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye, arrivederci...
... bisous, baci, kisses ... CCCCCCCClaudine :-) Pictures by Giuseppe Zanotti MODEL: ANJA RUBIK, POLAND Anja was born in Rzeszów, Poland on June 12, 1985.

Rubik can be seen in numerous editorials for Vogue, Numero, Harper's Bazaar, etc. More information and photographs of Anja can be found on her website: AnjaRubik.com. Anja is also Editor in Chief of 25 Magazine. BRAND: GIUSEPPE ZANOTTI, ITALY Zanotti was born in San Mauro Pascoli, a village close to Rimini, Italy. In the 1980s, he worked as a DJ before becoming the renowned shoemaker he is today. He started his fashion career in the 1980s. In the beginning, he started working locally with small craftsmen and then as a free-lance designer working with fashion maisons like Valentino, Thierry Mugler, Missoni, Dior, Roberto Cavalli and Ferré. In 1994, Zanotti took over a small shoemaking company, the Vicini shoe factory, and devoted his time to designing and manufacturing his own shoes. With a small workshop employing 15 people, including a jeweler, a heel and tree expert and an embroiderer, he started work on his first collection.

Read more about Giuseppe Zanotti on his official Website, HERE. Source: Wiki Hey guys! This season are black and white campaigns totally popular. Not only Giuseppe Zanotti campaign is B&W ... Including Burberry, YSL, Givenchy, Balenciaga ... and I like this soooo much! So I decided this time that this style and B&W optic will publish also in my following three posts! Every post will be marked with a black and white technique (predominantly) and with a little black dress in the main role!:-) You will see how the LBD, using fashion accessories, changes into a three hottest style of the season: - 60-ies retro; prunge (mix of punk&grunge) and punk. Let's see ... ... to be continued tomorrow, stay in touch :-) ...
