XXX PHOTOGRAPHY CRUSH XXX

Self Portrait

My new photography crush is Manoela Chiabai. The Brazilian 24 year old living in Madrid. 

I asked her some questions recently and here are her answers:

If you could wake up anywhere tomorrow where would it be?

I don't know, cause every morning I'm a different person. But one place I could always wake up is at home.

What's your biggest childhood memory?

The day my father gave me my first camera: a Polaroid.

What can you learn from men?

How to be a real Woman

What is the secret to happiness?

Doing what you love, what you want, following your dreams.

If you could wear any shoes what would they be?

Shoes that would take me far away.

If you could fill any shoes, who's would they be?

Diane Arbus

XXX MIDNIGHT IN PARIS XXX

Marion Cotillard is soo inspiring dressed by costume designer Sonia Grande in Woody Allen's, Midnight in Paris. There is such a faux innocence in these lose 1920's dresses.

XXX MY TINY MOOD BOARD XXX

XXX JESSIE WESTERN XXX

There is a tiny shop at the top of Portobello Road called Jessie Western. I don't think a shop could be more filled to the brink with all sorts of magical Native American Arts and Crafts. All bought by two sisters directly from the Native American India Reservations where they spent a great deal of their youth and have created many friendships with these artists. If you get a chance please drop by, It really is special.

This is my medicine card reading that I was given at the shop...
