New portfolio, band video, Phd,Düsseldorf and Mr. White

First of all, and thanks to the universe, I'm very active as person and professional. And it's not connected to the feeling of never being satisfied, is more connected to the feeling "I can do and i feel good doing it!" I can't see myself living in a world that I can't have fun with all the projects I'm involved. I'm very glad for everything I'm involved and working on. I'm a little bit unstoppable and I'm very glad to find people around me that it's the same. We're always having tons of ideas.
So, since there will be new and good news coming soon concerning my fashion knitwear label, I updated and created a new portfolio where you can glance some stuff I've been doing in the last years: mariecastroknitwear.tumblr.com

That's Isa (she was my fashion pupil some years ago, and also, very pretty!) modeling with the turbant.

As I was talking about the projects, there's also the band. We recorded some live sessions in the HoBo Studios (For those who does not know, Rabbit owns a studio now with another producer and works in several projects of music production). And also we have a new song that it's finished and we will release soon. To explain a little bit how the band works (because I got a call from a knitter asking if I will stop my designer carrier forever and so on --- I WON'T!!! hahaha), here we go... But first, let's watch our video:

The band is a project we do for fun, and pleasure to play music. As Rabbit said in the Radio Fritz's interview, this project is based in doing music with our fists and hearts --- and not putting too much thinking behind it(or judgments). It's a band where we have fun playing our indie-crazy-rock-funny music...Playing honest music that we would like to hear. Everything is done with love and we are very glad that this is touching all the people that believe in our music. It makes us very happy that we get more 10 000 plays in our single "Home", and this invitation we got to play in a live session in the radio, and etc-etc-etc, but we are not working 100% of our time in the band, we LOVE playing together but we also have our other projects concerning design, business and music. So we won't stop anything we do, we are just doing now everything at the same time and having our fun with that. The band got a very big and importance significance in our lives and we take time to that. If you like it, share with your friends and everyone you know (we are personally very glad with people that are supporting us and also if you guys are doing some artistic project please let me know and I can help to promote it on my twitter).  If you don't like it (and plus don't like indie music, thinking we should sing like Whitney Houston or something.. hahaha), simply don't listen to our music and try to find something that you enjoy. It's simple like that. And we all can have fun :)

My brother just concluded his Phd in São Paulo. I was not able to be there to support him, but I'm always sending my energies, does not matter where I am. For those who does not know, I have a very applied older brother. He works as lawyer and loves academic life, I'm very proud of him. We both share some passions for music, language and traveling (he traveled even more than me)... Well, as I said, I'm very glad that in my life I'm always around very interesting people with interesting lives.

Well-well, I just came back from Düsseldorf, and it's unbelievable the quantity of fashion high end shops there.I surely want to start to sell my new collections there.  The whole trip was actually a matter of family matters, I trained a little bit of german, we ate awesome japanese food and warm weather really got us.

How are you people surviving in this new Breaking Bad's season? I don't want to throw some spoilers for those who are not watching now, but Breaking Bad is basically my religion and I'm totally tense to see how it is gonna end. Mr. White is getting creepy and Jesse is awesome as always.

YEAH BITCH, MAGNETS!

That's all for now, I need to prepare dinner for tonight and relax a little bit... It's sunday!
I'm happy I'm managing to come here more often. I hope you are enjoying it :)

Kisses,
Marie
