Dark Room: Melancholy

I don't know, I guess you just have to feel that way from time to time.

Melancholy is maybe good.

Wallpaper: Vacation In Paradise

There's too much photos in this post, but this hotel is too pretty. I can't stop staring at them. It's a boutique hotel located in Marrakech named 'El Fenn'. My perfect hotel.
 
(Please click to enlarge)
This hotel is a perfect mix of modern and traditional. A traditional palace is turned into this dreamy accommodation.
 
 
Lots of greenery, small pools, view over the city. It looks so warm and welcome.
 
 
There are 20 rooms decorated with just right amount of details and beautiful furniture, including a king size bed.
 
 
Most of all I love the colours. Vivid but not kitschy.
 
 
Each room has access to the inner courtyard, which is a dreamy relaxation zone.
 
 
Now all I have to do is find a rich boyfriend ;-)

Gallery: I Need More Neon In My Life

Remember my obsession with neon? I introduce you Olivia Steele, a conceptual artist who uses neon light for her instalations.
 
(Click to enlarge)

 
"The juxtaposition of the neon statement and the environment is placed in challenging conventional semiotics and evokes a wide range of interpretations. In dialogue with media such as facades, rivers, photographs and found objects, she tells short stories that evoke thought while enlightening the scenery with elaborate handwritings in neon glass. (...) The nature of her content is both provocative and reflective as her work asks the viewer to consider the hidden emotions and unforeseen forces in a moment of reflection." (circleculture-gallery.com)
 



Isn't it great how she uses images and sites to complete the statements?
Find her beautiful work here: oliviasteele.com
and on her Facebook: Olivia-Steele

Runway: Beach

Spending your summer beside the sea? Then you need the perfect beach outfit. I recommend something vintage-inspired. Comfy & sporty but at the same time pretty & stylish.

It also looks good while enjoying cocktails and ice-cream at the seaside.
 
 
And, do you know what's my favourite? It's pin-up. Always pin-up.
 
 
Here's my pin-up inspired Polyvore set:
 
 
Heading to the beach?

This time I used photoshop. I photographed parts of a broken laptop.
 



 
All photos by me.

Rec: Chain Reaction

Hey everybody, remember Domino Day?



(Source: Google)
As a fan of cool chain reactions, I'm so sad there are no more Domino Days. The last was in 2009. 4 491 863 dominos. I want it back!
Also, some good ideas in 'Home Alone' movies. You must remember that...
 
Here's the video for 'This Too Shall Pass' by OK Go. It's so brilliant. So chained.
 
 
 
Oh and remember that TV series (I think) with a crazy guy who wakes up at the intro and there's this chain reaction that bakes him a toast and dresses him and catapults him... Please help me find out what that was!
