Candy

"In a fantastic riposte to the dwindling state of print media; Luis Venegas, the young visionary magazine publisher and editor of cult magazines Fanzine 137 and Electric Youth! has launched his bravest, most exciting concept yet; a magazine that celebrates the world of transgenderism – Candy. Like his other publications which have featured exclusive portfolios from the likes of Alasdair McLellan and Steven Klein, Candy boasts an impressive roster of contributors from Bruce Weber, Terry Richardson, to Dazed’s menswear editor, Robbie Spencer and Karim Sadli’s breathtaking depictions of Callum Wilson in couture Christian Lacroix and David Armstrong’s fragile depictions of beautiful boys in the broken-down knits of Rodarte. A moving interview with the writers of seminal and inspirational trans-tome Casa Susanna is accompanied by an epic shoot that’s lovingly inspired by it; featuring the likes of Luke Worrall and Cole Mohr in full drag. Interspersed are tributes to some of the most iconic figures in trans-history from Lypsinka, to Joey Arias and of course, the original Candy Darling. While wildly different from his previous ventures, Candy shares in common Venegas’ deeply personal approach to magazine publishing and desire to break down barriers."- www.dazeddigital.com

Bauhaus, a very artistic granny

The MoMa in New York has arranged an exhibition, commemorating the 90th anniversary of the foundation of the Bauhaus, the most influential and ground-breaking school of art and design of the 20th century.

Oskar Schlemmer, Bauhaus Stairway, 1932. One of the most popular paintings of the school.

Under the title of "Bauhaus 1919-1933: Workshops for Modernity",the exhibition is composed of 80 works from the MoMa collection, as well as some pieces of artwork belonging to the three German institutions which look after the Bauhaus legacy: the Bauhaus archive in Berlin, the Bauhaus Foundation in Dessau, and the Weimar Classics Foundation.

Through more than 400 objects, we are encouraged to look at the impact which the Bauhaus had in art, since its foundation in 1919 until its exile in 1933, forced by the Nazis.

Not only paintings, but also furniture, photographs, drawings, dresses and design objects are exhibited, aiming to recreate the commitment and passion in the School.

chanel nº5, haircut, sobranies and other stories.

The first week of the year is gone and it's been pretty intense, something has been happening every day. The start of the year couldnt have been better and our outfits which emulated sienna and keira in the edge of love were lovely.
Books and chanel is what i got for Christmas (6th of jan, presents day down here) which I believe represents me quite faithfully, culture and stories wearing red lipstick and smelling of number five. Such a young woman, I love it. I don't know what it is with that Chanel red lipstick but it just makes you feel like a goddess everytime you wear it.

Also, I FINALLY dared to chop off about 8 or 9 inches of hair and I now have a blondey bob, which is funny because it reminds me SO much of when I was five. I've been told I look French, Anglo saxon(ha) and I don't know, it seems to be liked, so I am quite happy, cause trust me, for a girl, it really is a tough decision. Mais c'est tres chic, très bon, I like.

On my wishlist are some LOAFERS, flat or heeled, I don't mind, but they're just gorgeous and so so classy. These are from Bimba & Lola, and they're amazing.



voilà me!
