Secret places...

Most of the times we are really busy. Busy with our work, busy with our problems, busy by taking ourselves too seriously... forgetting to stop our quick walking and take a big breath or take a look around us.
So one day I stopped, these are the things that i saw. Wired years and years passing by these streets and i never noticed the artistic beauty that a city can have

Our home, our life... at the end defines our style...

Before we enter the world of style and its meaning, is crucial for me to share some thoughts of mine with you. Sometimes, I let my imagination to travel over my homeplace, over my city, over my ordinary way of life and i think that style isn't only the clothes we wear but also style is in the way we live or in the way we choose to see things around us. I had a friend who used to live in a very small house and the view from her bedroom was not actually what we say "extraodinary". But she was always telling me that when she woke up, in the morning, se could talk to her neighbours, because all the balconys were very close to each other, and at nights when she opened her window she could "smell life", as se used to say. She could smell the handmade ice - cream of the woman on the 2nd floor who used to live with her three kids, she could listen a woman from India singing her traditional songs, she could also she a piece of sky full of stars... even that piece wasn't really big.. She was happy.
One day, I couldn't help it and i asked her if i could capture the view from her bedroom.... here it is. Really ordinary hah?
... But I am sure that you can imagine all the things i told you... as i do... every time i take a look at this picture.

Sometimes me and my friend used to sit on the terrace where she was putting her laundry under the sun... and i always used to wonder... if all those people that leave in those houses have dreams as i have, if they, sometimes, look at the sky trying to figure a sign of hope....
What do you see every morning you wake up? What do you dream of? What style do your dreams have?

New kid in the blogosphere...

... I see my blog as a little baby, so simple, so primitive, so minimal, with no specific style...yet, but at the same time so special and so magic... I am thinking right now that it is on my own hand to raise this blog, to make it good or bad, lovable or not, i am responsible for it, this blog is my inner sight!
... I had created this page one year ago maybe more... but i never had the courage to present myself. All this time i was reading other blogs.. fashion blogs, social blogs and i was trying to decide what i wanted to do... what i wanted to say, what i wanted to present to all those uknown, but so special people, who would probably chose to read my blog.
... I have decided that i will present you here, what brings me inspiration, everything that fullfils my eyes and soul...all the things that are beyond fashion... the most pure way of non- talk communication: Style!

Best regards...
