Breaking Bad

At first sight, I had in my mind that Breaking Bad wouldn't be the kind of Tv series I'd feel attach to.  For real, my ex-boyfriend told me "there's one series everyone is talking about and I think you'll like it" and I was like "nyaaaa no way", so I watched the first 2 or 3 episodes and I got addicted. It was some years ago, and for now, I feel obligated to write about it in this blog. THE SERIES IS FUCKING AWESOME.

 The plot sounds pretty simple and weird at same time: A chemistry teacher called Walter White just discovers he has cancer and that his life is not going through a good direction, so, he teams up with a local stoned kiddo called Jesse Pinkman and together they start their business of cooking meth. But obviously, the  series is not just about that, and that's why it is so brilliant. It goes deep to all moral, society,  right/wrong aspects involving the human existence plus they have a perfect team of actors, directors, soundtracks.. Everything is just so perfect that you can't avoid it: it's a piece of art. If you never watched it and have some free time (or you can watch it while knitting/crocheting) .. WATCH IT. And tell me your impressions later.

last days

Hi everyone!
Well, last days were not that easy.
I'm rushing my japanese orders, and also preparing and fixing some small details of my japanese summer. It's a long, hard and tiring process ~ all to make you look stylish and pretty within my clothing line. :)
Actually , in my point of view, there always a lot of sacrifices behind a pretty garment --- or face. People usually forget that, and that's why pretty things are so valuable (real beauty, to me).
I mean, we are kinda living a world, nowadays, of easy stuff. Easy-going smiles, easy friendship, easy beauty, easy words.. everything too easy, too flat. I heard a song these days called "Warm smiles doesn't make you welcome here" and my mind just connected it with this subject I'm talking about  even though it may sound a little bit senseless in this whole conversation :)
I don't like easy things. They are mostly flat and go away very quickly. Always doubt of people being too easy over you. Probably it is fake.

I often write about wishes. "I wish that something was blablaba" and so on. I'm trying to force myself to this kind of thought. Otherwise we will just loose a good amount of time wishing stuff and not really doing something to make it true. Even all that horoscope thing says people from my star sign are kinda subjective, I find myself very objective in everything else, but love. Maybe is my moon, I don't know. I highly believe in those things. Maybe it is just one of that things that shows how everything is so connected in this world. Nature, people, stars.. All in the same vibration. In this world it's all about the right tuning.

Well, today I already worked in my label stuff, so I'll save some hours now to relax, and I'm using it to write here, but doesn't matter, for me writing is very relaxing. I feel often relaxed when I express myself, and very tense if for some reason I'm not able to express it. I'm just releasing I was not writing too much in the last years because I was always afraid about some reaction I would generate on people while exposing my thoughts. NO FEAR, NO FEAR, NO FEAR. That's the motto now :) Being in a band is helping me a lot on that. It's amazing, actually, how people are exposing themselves while doing music even though they think they are protected in some comfortable zone or something like that. I'll get out of mine in some hours, it's a recording day, again.

Actually, there's no comfort zone. When you think you are in one, that's the moment the world says: "Hey, I'll throw this brick over your sand castle and let's see if you ruin it completely or if you re-build it". Life makes it everyday, but sometimes we don't notice that. But it's always there.
We've been too distracted.

yarnbombing project?

Life is always connected with work.
At least in my life.. it is like this.
But anyways, I'm thinking about starting a new yarnbombing project.
Agata Olek is here in Brazil, since the beginning of this week. I've met her (and actually now collaborating with her yarnbombing project in SP) and it was really something cool to do: it motivated me in another level. I mean, I just finished to show my second japanese collection, and everything went fine :) We will be in Japan again. But it was a hard process, and still, there are a lot of adjustments to do. But, there was a strange voice inside of me saying "relax, take your time in this week". And that's what I did. I did not stop working, since Olek is here and I'm crocheting, but also I was able to re-think about a lot of things going through my mind these days. I even had time to do my band's logo in crochet:


Well, so since I'm gonna travel to Europe in some months, I thought maybe I could do some nice yarnbombing project there. I mean, it's a good opportunity to take advantage of the nice cities I'll able to see.. and do art with that.
Yeah.
Art.
I question myself , actually, everyday, about what I'm doing.
I don't think it is fashion at all. I mean, I run a fashion label, but it is not just that, and I'm not putting all my forces into the 'fashion thing'. I mean, I'm trying to develop, in my own style, my vision of the world. And  it is not just about clothing, but anything else. It's a long way to go, but I'll follow my heart and see what happens.

changes

It's completely mad and difficult to measure all the projects I've been through last month. Professionally, emotionally.. It was just the beginning of a new era of experimentation.  And now I just realized how dumb is to have a blog and not writing on it. Actually, it's kinda painful to me, since I love to find some minutes to write down something that's my mind.  So I took the decision of opening my mind and thoughts just a little bit more. So it is not going to be, anymore, a blog just about my label and my fashion works. I'll try to catch up with this thing and write down a little bit more about the other stuff I'm involved and excited about, tips of restaurants, movies, music... whatever. I don't know yet, but I wanna write more.  :)
