#vintage hair & Make-up

Web, 28

“I’m wearing a skirt from my most recent collection made from upcycled denim jeans, top by Women’s History Museum, hair piece by Katie Lee Jones, vintage 80s belt & bra, and Vivienne Westwood bag. I am inspired by spiders, forever creating & repairing, imbuing their webs with divine femme magic grandmother energy, the same energy I channel with my art & everything I do.”

Creo que con todas las crisis posibles que nos inventamos las personas a lo largo de nuestra vida, dentro del paquete de “La crisis de los 30” que me descargué a mi disco duro el año pasado venía incluida una extensión relacionada con cómo me visto. Me cuesta hablar de mí, me cuesta comenzar frases con “Yo soy…”, me cuesta definirme, pero poco a poco voy conociéndome y aceptándome (todavía más importante). La ropa puede parecer un tema banal, no voy a citar a Miranda Priestly para desacreditar esta afirmación, aunque podría (if you know, you know). Aunque si estás leyendo esto es probable que eres de las mías, sabes que la ropa es mucho más que pedazos de tela que te cubre el cuerpo. Todo esto para decir que estoy revolucionando mi armario para redefinir qué se queda, qué se va y qué entra. Siento que me he alargado más en la introducción que en el quid de la cuestión, pero hasta aquí por hoy. Me encanta este look con un traje de mi madre, polo y boina de segunda mano, bolso y pendientes de Júlia, zapas regalo de Aitor y el anillo más grande que tengo hecho por mí, con mis manitas. ¿Este es mi nuevo avatar? ¿El avatar de una nueva era? Puede.

I think that with all the possible crises that we people invent throughout our lives, the “Midlife Crisis” package that I downloaded to my hard drive last year included an extension related to how I dress. It's hard for me to talk about myself, it's hard for me to start sentences with “I am…”, it's hard for me to define myself, but little by little I'm getting to know myself and accepting myself (that’s even more important). Clothing may seem like a banal topic, I'm not going to quote Miranda Priestly to debunk this statement, although I could (if you know, you know). Although if you are reading this you are probably one of me, you know that clothes are much more than pieces of fabric that cover your body. All this to say that I'm revolutionizing my closet to redefine what stays, what goes, and what goes in. I feel like I've gone longer on the introduction than on the crux of the matter, but that's it for today. I love this look with a suit from my mother, a second-hand polo and beret, a bag and earrings from Júlia, sneakers as a gift from Aitor and the biggest ring I have made by myself, with my little hands. Is this my new avatar? The avatar of a new era? It might be.

Vintage total look with Adidas sneakers and Zara bag & earrings.

can someone give me ideas for renaming kyouka? i dont think that name fits the most and also i chose it maaany years ago now i think it could be cultural appropriation (i tried to compare it with someone naming their oc like Carlinhos and uh... yea feels a lil disrespectful if they dont know much about the name of the culture surrounding it yknow) and i think i can come up with something more meaningful than that. Something relating to the fact she chose her name in a book, and maybe also referencing her whole jester thing going on

the issue with dating people YOU thought were really interesting is you forget that YOU YOURSELF have some absolute lore too

Really feel like the toilet paper in the bg steals the show

Sometimes sewing is swearing at the machine every 10 seconds while stabbing yourself in the thumb with a safety pin and finding yourself making a bag instead of originally making a hair ribbon…

with all this catalyst I hope I become the prettiest version of myself

A veces se me hace raro escribir textos aquí porque me pregunto quién los lee verdaderamente. Pero si detrás de la pantalla ahora mismo hay alguien que nos sigue desde hace tiempo o nos conoce, por poco que sea, sabrá que las dos valoramos mucho la ropa de segunda mano y dar tantas oportunidades a las prendas como sea posible. Pues bien, este vestido es una joya que Júlia encontró en una tienda de segunda mano y que escondió en una burra para que a mí me diera tiempo a llegar para probármelo y, finalmente, comprármelo. Desde aquí quiero dar las gracias a las personas que no tiran la ropa, a las personas que cada día hacen pequeños actos a favor de un consumo de moda más sostenible y, sobre todo sobre todo, quiero dar las gracias a las buenísimas amigas, como Júlia.

Sometimes it feels strange to write texts here because I wonder who really reads them. But if behind the screen right now there is someone who has been following us for a long time or knows us, even if it is just a little, they will know that we both value second-hand clothes and giving as many opportunities to garments as possible. Well, this dress is a jewel that Júlia found in a second-hand store and hid so I would have time to come to try it on and, finally, buy it. From here I want to thank the people who do not throw away clothes, the people who every day do small acts in favor of a more sustainable fashion consumption and, above all, I want to thank the very good friends, like Júlia.
