Personal Shopping




Já existe no Brasil serviços de personal stylist porem o que grandes marcas europeias tem feito é oferecer esse serviço em suas lojas por preços convicentes. Espaços dedicados, confortaveis, discretos e com conceito.


Tb em grandes marcas ja existem áreas dedicadas as baixinhas e as altinhas..... Até que enfim :)

KIDS or ADULTS ?



Most of the big retails shop in Europe have designed for child with ( in my opinion) no creativity at all. Doesn´t look garments for child at all. Where are the colors, the happiness? It´s seems like we want are kids to grow up fast and became adults...
I really dont want that to happen with my son. Do you?
For the ones that never heard about Custo Barcelona below you will find there website and some info, but what I really wanted to show is how fashion brands have been adding in other field customizing brands, in this case Perrier. Custo was invited to customize some bottles. I found it fantastic !!!

-----
The Brand Custo is Spanish and was created in the early ´80´s by Dalmau brothers. Custo and David after a around world trip discovered not only new landscapes but also the most diverse manifestations of art, culture and philosophy. The most surprising things they encountered was the Cafifornia lifestyle and the colorful and innovative fashion they found there and particulary a style of t-shirt that did not exist is Spain at that time. They use techniques of screen printing and special attention to the graphic design with color combinations and printed patters, innovation, boldness and sophistication
Custo Barcelona exists as a style in itself - http://www.custo-barcelona.com/

Ontem dia 8 estive no Imperial War Museum. Para minha surpresa o museu for completamente diferente do que eu esperava, Focava muito mais nas consequencias sociais que as guerras provacaram nas pessoas. Tive tb uma exposicao excelente sobre cartazes e comunicaçao no periodo das guerras mundiais.
Para quem estuda Moda é um must go aqui em Londres!!!

Oxford Circus - London






I´m still not sure if i should write in portugues or english since msot of my students are from Brasil but.... i would really like to pratice my english spelling and also give oportunity to people from other places to read what i write so....... here it goes...


Last tuesday I had a great day. I spend almost 5 hours walking in Oxford Circus road in London town. For the onew that don´t know is a street where you can find all fashion brands. Was a nice experience and I went in almost all main store to see architecture, designs, styles and prices and as always we see nice things and "shit" things. Most of the popular stores ( H&M, Zara, Mango) you can see the same kind of garments and acessories prices are connected with there costumers and really really beautiful windows. It´s amazing how brands are investing in windows. Of course this investment in windows is and will arrive in Brazil soon.
Another nice observation is that here in London I could see some store specilized in men´s beauty. I´ts what they call body maintanence for men ( see pic in attach)
take care
