Happy Birthday, Karl! (Karl Who?)

Hmm. You may be wondering who Karl is. Well, I'll give some clues: fashion icon, fingerless gloves, black sunglasses and the famous white ponytail.

Ok. I understand that not many people from Nobody's Land (aka Slatina) have heard of him, so I'm going to give the whole name. Karl Lagerfeld. The fashion genius, King of style and extravagance and last, but not least, the head designer at Chanel.

But although style is timeless, people behind it are not. And no matter how unique he is, our beloved Karl makes no exception to the rule. It is rumored that today is his 76th anniversary, but only the man himself knows if that's really true.

Anyway, I just wanted to wish him a very 'Happy birthday!'. Or should I say 'Bon anniversaire!'? 'Alles Gute zum Geburtstag!'?

Guns N' Roses or Leather N' Jeans? (Use your illusion)

So, today i woke up in a very Guns N' Roses mood. Don't know what hit me, but Slash's image came into my mind and i have to say: Have you seen this guy's hair?! Magnificent! I wonder how can he still maintain it like this.

I know that when many people say 'Guns N' Roses', they think about Axl Rose, but what i think about is biiiig hair, great music, tight leather pants, amazing tees and gorgeous jeans jackets! (Slash's jackets, of course.)

But, talking about their music, if you don't know any song of theirs, you should start listening from now on! I'll recommend you my favorite, 'Don't Cry (Original)', but you can always go with the famous ones, like 'Sweet Child O'Mine' or 'Welcome to the Jungle'.

I really don't know whether this article is about GN'R, fashion or simply Slash. I'll let you choose it. In the mean, here are some pics with the crazy haired guys.




By the way, have you noticed that Slash's checked shirt from the last pic is the same one he wore in MJ's video, 'Give In To Me'? (Which is my second favorite song from MJ - Wonder why?)

Anna Sui for Target

Although Anna Sui announced a long time ago that she'll be creating a Gossip Girl inspired line, I thought it's better to announce you a few days before it comes out.

So, the line will be released in Target stores and online on the 13th of September and it will have 19 looks, all inspired by the 4 female characters from the TV show Gossip Girl. I have to say that this is a big chance for us, girls to get such nice clothes at prices under 150$.

Beneath, you can see the pictures with the looks sorted by character. So enjoy them and let me know what you think. Would you buy this?

RIP, Michael Jackson.


This is one sad entry.

The King of Pop, Michael Jackson just left us. HE was a great man & musician, an inspiration for most of us.

In the next days there will be said many things about him. Some people will say good words, some won't. I say we should keep the impression we had about him and not let the grumblers spoil Michael's memory.

My condoleances to the Jackson Family.

Read. Contradict. Confute. Believe. Take for granted. Weigh and Consider!


'Why should we read?' That's what most people are asking themselves. I think we all should read so that we pass through life with a bit of knowledge.
But what do we read? Books, magazines, newspapers. Comic books and reviews. Fairytales, if you want. The important thing is that we need to stop throwing books away and shut down the computer.
Reading is what we all need to form our own culture, to have a decent conversation and to understand things.
Someone once said it all begins with a word. A word can mean more than a thousand actions; we say 'Mom' when we are babies, we say 'Yes' when we marry and 'Goodbye' when we die. It all begins and ends with a word.
Let's not waste the magic of all those works that stay in the library and wait for us. Let's not wait for the teacher to force us read! All we have to do is to find something we like: romance, drama, horror - it doesn't matter what our tastes are.
And, in the end, you will see how it all works. You are going to feel better after reading something instead of staying several hours playing on the computer.
