March 27th, 2019 / by Alina Aliman / in: Dazzling stories / No responses

She says that Corina the designer is more fun than the Corina the scenographer. But I think that Corina Boboc is awesome in both situations and her designs look cool no matter if they are on actresses on the red carpet, (on me) for a morning walk in the city or completing the plot in a classical ...

Winter is for knitting. As well as for having fun and spend your day with your friends and family. And when the clothes have bright colours and cool cuts, the name of the brand is worth keeping in mind. Fullwati. Or, as in Hindi, “the girl wearing a flower”. Fullwati pieces are available on ...

It will be hard to choose my favourites this year from all the talented designers at MATERIA 2018 fair. And now, more than ever, it will be very hard for me to decide if I will take home a bag, a pair of beautiful shoes, a necklace made out of leather, earrings or some multi-functional ...

“I sometimes think that my brain works in repeat. I love the order and regiment of repetition, and how anything and everything can be patterned in this way, as if you are looking at the world through a prism or kaleidoscope”, said Orla Kiely. A magic kind of kaleidoscope, if we look at the ...
