Grey Flannel

Geoffrey Beene´s classic cologne is my favourite smell in the whole wide world. I love it so much, that not only I will wear it, but I will make my boyfriend wear it as well. Simple packaging and everlasting jade green glass bottle are the ingredients to an accelerating experience that pushes you to a sensatorial climax. Whoever wants to thrill me in more than one way, grab a bottle and soak it on. Downside of this whole perfume extravaganza, is that is a tough cookie to find, only available at perfume market in New York´s Union Square or at http://www.perfume.com/.

Fantastic Mr. Fox


Wes Anderson take on the classic children´s book written by Roald Dahl, is a feist of stunning aesthetics and whimsical storytelling. Wes managed to surprise us with a contemporary take on robery and the morality behind it with a sixties wardrobe and delicate and well thought out editing. Entirely filmed with miniature scale characters and sets, is more than a children´s movie, in fact, is an adult and naïve take on self exposure and a judgemental society with purgatory standards.
Wes, you did it Again!

Terry Richardson

This cheeky New Yorker, who by the way was my neighbour while leaving in New York, is a sweet and shy man with white trailer trash looks that might put you off at first glanze. Unlike his narcissistic portraits and work, where he feels the need to appear in almost any sanpshot he takes, in real life is a cool  and laid back dude with a great sense of humour and great manners, but that is only after you break the shell and force yourself to bring up some conversation more than once! On my last visit to New York I met him chilling on the street with the cool Nolita kids, and he has not change a bit. A fan of his controversial work and of the man himself, if you wish to see more of Terry´s unusual world check out http://www.terrysdiary.com/
Oh Terry you are so fine, you are so fine...You blow my mind! Hey Terry!
