Templo de Debod, Madrid, Spain. November, 2015.
"Keep the pictures, they never change-only the people in them"
Dear fiends,
hope you had a nice weekend and thanks for all the visits I received in these days, I'm really glad!
Here in Madrid is a sunny day but cold has just arrived so it's time to throw the coat out of the closet.
Considering is fall, therefore the season with the best colors, I chose as location the gardens around
the "Debod temple", an Egyptian temple from the second century B.C. that consists of a gift from
Egypt to Spain as a reward for the aid in war.
Today I'll introduce you a new post in vintage style, with a modern touch. As you can see I mixed
modern clothes with vintage accessories, especially the hat that recalls the 20's. In fact fashion
industry is constantly looking for innovation, revolution and transgression, but always looks at the
past, taking the cue from it. Vintage fashion is like a cult for a lot of fashion lovers: is not just to
have old clothes or accessories, but it's about an added value that comes from a time before where
every single piece of fabric was unique.
Also make-up is really interesting: cat's eyes, red lips and porcelain skin.....light makeup
but taken care in details: black eye-liner and red lipstick will be essentials!!!!
As I anticipated in previous posts here in Madrid there's a new big Primark store, in the "Granvia"
avenue: I really suggest to enter and enjoy of this huge store. Seems to be in a shopping center
and there you could find for small prices pieces fashionable and trendy, along with everyday things
(tights, underwear, trinkets, cosmetics.....).it's an obligatory stop for fashion lovers!!!!
Hope you like this post, realized with the great photographer Jesùs Ruiz, which two years ago took
me a very glam photoshoot on a red Vespa, recalling the italian style "La dolce vita" (it's the first
post on my blog, titled "Around the city by Vespa").
Have a nice day and see you soon!
Sophia
