breaking in

via COS

Flatforms are just a fancier name for creepers and I do appreciate what they do to a girl's silhouette or to an ordinary shoe for that matter. Also they should be comfortable enough for walking around the city all day and, why not, all night long. LP shoes. Finally I gave in and bought this COS version, now I have to make them butter-soft before going to London fashion week as I'm planning to wear them with everything, basically. But don't tell that to my double blister.

Moj čevljar je znova globoko zavzdihnil, ko jih je zagledal, baje je vse narobe z njimi; narejene so bile na kopitu za škornje (zato so se mi ves čas sezuvale), poleg tega pa so preveč ravne in zato z njimi hodim kot v pancerjih, kar moti bolj njega kot mene, I like that robot walk. Za pomlad-poletje si že ogledujem tole Carven espadrilasto različico, ki bo zagotovo prijaznejša do mojih nožic, čeprav bi Mr. Vodeb najbrž spet kaj pripomnil. Nihče ni popoln, kaj šele par čevljev.

me, again

photos by Maja Slavec

Last week I had an interview for a magazine and these are the photos that give my hair and power coat all the glitz they deserve (and I look super tall).

O tem, s čim si plačujem račune, s kom sem strašno kul in zakaj ne pogrešam Televizije. V novi številki Obrazov.

comfort zone

I can't figure out what is it with me and glasses. They are a beautiful vintage Giorgio Armani pair and yet when wearing them I don't feel like myself. It is similar to the Borsalino hats in the Max & Co. shop. I adore them in theory and I would love to be the woman with the hat. Just imagine somebody describing you as "oh, that woman with a hat", but I just don't have what it takes. On the other hand, I can wear the scuba top by COS all the time, without special preparations.

Čez mesec dni bom po sezoni ali dveh abstinence spet tekala po tednu mode. Tokrat londonskem. Obešalniki se že tresejo, saj vedo, da jih bom dajala v nič in da bodo nekaj dni pred odhodom iz mojih ust slišali marsikaj. V vsej svoji modni lenobi špricam tudi razprodaje, ker, hej, saj grem vendar v London, kjer bo mrgolelo pižamastih in pastelnih SS pregreh. A o tem kasneje, zdaj moram piar hišam razposlati prošnje za vabila.

first edition

–... and besides, there are no men without tragedies, there is only what you believe. Everything is costume. Everything seems the way you see it on the street, unconcerned, ambling along the pedestrian crossing of appearance. Everything smells of rules, and keeps its secret. (Henri Matisse)

With Chanel it is like a groundhog Christmas, maybe because of all the pearls, I really can't say, but in my head it is always snowing in the chanelland. The book was a gift I hunted down on eBay after seeing the crazy prices they were asking for it at Netaporter. I love it that it was a Christmas gift to someone's mama in 1975.

Šele dobro sem oslinila prste pa že vidim, da Karl in Gabrielle še naprej na debelo lažeta o svojem poreklu, torej je to très Chanel, vsaj toliko kot vražja tvidasta jakna ali preštepana usnjača.

definitely maybe

Next time I threaten my hair with cutting it, I just have to take a look at this photo. This was definitely a good hair day, probably one of the best since turning orange. Maybe I will buy my hair a christmas gift, a fancy brush.

Nekoč sem že napisala, da nekaj na laseh moške spravlja v blaženo stanje. Zibajoči konjski rep je zanje kot par najstniških prsi, ki skačejo pod majico. Ko lase spustimo iz gumice in se nam razlijejo po ramenih, pa kot da bi si odpele modrček. Čista predigra. Dolgi lasje so zame po drugi strani čiste počitnice od same sebe, od kratkolaske, od temnolaske, od brivske mašince. Kljub temu jim grozim, da si bom poleti omislila tisti paž nerodne dolžine, ki obvisi tam nekje pri ključnici in ga čez dober teden nemogočega krotenja skrajšaš do brade.

the office

scanned by DCMU

A few madmen-esque photos from an old Stol Kamnik catalogue, a company specialised in chairs and the art of sitting long hours. Why did offices look so good back in the days and so plastic today? Probably because of all the wood and leather. It makes me wanna put on my kitten heels and start typing away. 

Tako bi lahko bil videti tudi retro Net-a-Porter pred, hm, internetom. Verjetno bi naročale po telefonu, še bolje, telegramu, iz debelih glossy katalogov (podobnih tistim, ki jih Net-a-Porter pošilja pressu na začetku sezone). Fikus v kotu, zvok drsečih koleščkov in četa oblek za hrbtom.

nowhere shoes

You know when you really like the shoes but can't bring yourself to wear them outside the house? Cause they are of such delicate colour, so buttersoft and suede, need I say more? But I will wear them in the spring, promise, with the jacket and shorts from the Cos collection. Margiela and Cos go well together.

Čevlji na špic, ha? Velika vrnitev, tako velika celo, da so se manolke znova znašle na wishlistah. In Carrie s prijateljicami se obrača v grobu na videokasetah. Moji prsti se kremžijo, a Margiela dela udobne špičke, brez učinka sardel v konzervi. Pojma nimam, kaj je mišljeno s tem, da je navdušenje, ko pride naokrog sezona, ki si jo že enkrat dal skozi, manjše. Šele sedaj sem dovolj zrela za reprizo devetdesetih. Hit me, baby, one more time.
