吳季剛/ Jason Wu

吳季剛, better known as Jason Wu, is a Taiwanese American fashion designer. He's only 27 but he has already achieved many accomplishments. His collections always remind the time when womens were polished an styled to perfection. I really like the lace's details and the delicacy of the shapes of his new a/w 2011-12 collection.

Black velvet and red dragon

Ralph Lauren, for his 2011-2012 A/W Collection took inspiration from the Chinese world: silk and dragon embroideries match perfectly velvet and jade accessories. With simple suits and old style Qipaos he recalls the allure of an ancient China.

Why I miss 上海!!!

It's been almost 2 weeks and I still cannot stop thinking about Shanghai... 
So what I've decided is to list some of the things that I miss the most... Starting backward, (from the last to the first thing that I miss more) this list made me realize that paradoxically even the worst thing makes me feel nostalgic and desirous of going back!!!

10. Clearly I' m going to say:  People who spits when you are walking
09. I've never understood the purpose of the many car horns... 
08. The Smog that hides the beautiful view
07. Traffic jam between 16:30-19:30 (especially in Panyu road)
06. Smell of smoke everywhere after a saturday night
05. What I miss: travelling facilities
04. Chinese food 
03. Cheap nice Sushi
02. Fake eyelashes
01. 3 euro for an amazing Manicure

Ai wei wei's work

Happy Rabbit new year!!! 兔子新年快乐

According to the Chinese lunar calendar today is new year's eve... I am going to eat a traditional Chinese barbecue with italian dumplings!
Tomorrow it will start the year of the rabbit...
  
The Chinese Rabbit is one of the most stylish creatures of the Chinese Animal Signs and finds interest in different cultures. He is classy and sophisticated, and can be found adorning one of the latest fashion magazine cover looks. Rabbits also like artistic ventures, such as painting and music and are generally quite present in these worlds. They love top express themselves, which is evident when joining them at home for a function or a cup of coffee.
