I SO WANT TO GO

Since weekend is starting I have some interesting ideas to spend your Saturday and Sunday morning. As you might know I am a big fan of museums and art galleries and here are mi latest obsessions that I would love to visit, soon If I get lucky ^_^.

DRAWING FASHION
London


"Drawing Fashion celebrates a unique collection of some of the most remarkable fashion illustrations from the twentieth and twenty first centuries. These original works define the fine art of illustrating fashion, from the collections of Chanel, Dior, Comme des Garçons and Poiret as well as Viktor & Rolf, Lacroix and McQueen..."

Who wouldn't love to see some illustrations of one of the 21 century fashion geniuses as Alexander McQueen and also get to see the art of the iconic fashion houses such as Chanel and Dior held at the Design Museum which I think is one of the best of London at least on matter of Modern Art.

I'm so in



MARILYN MONROE: LIFE AS A LEGEND
Pittsburgh

Marilyn Monroe: Life as a legend, The Andy Wharhol Museum 
  
"This exhibition captures the spark, sex appeal and sensation that was Marilyn Monroe through the art of Andy Warhol, Allen Jones, Peter Blake, Richard Avedon, Bert Stern, Henri Cartier-Bresson and many others. Documenting the iconic life of America’s favorite sex symbol in styles ranging from fashion photography to Pop Art"
 
I am a big fan of Warhol's Pop Art, back when I was in high school I used to take art class so as far as I remember he was my main inspiration, and the whole art movement made me decide to become a Publicist so for me is a big part of my daily life. 
 
So If you love Marilyn, Andy Warhol's work or both and you live near don't hesitate on visit. 
 
 
MODO MUSEUM 
Mexico City

As a fan of packaging design as I am I wanted to go to the MODO Museum since I first heard about it like a month ago, It is the newest design and communication themed museum on Mexico City inaugurated last month. It's packaging, advertising material and graphic arts collection holds more than 30000 objects dated from 1810 until now. So I guess it would be very interesting to see soda bottles from all over the world who are no longer made, 1920's make up powder kits, vintage parfumes bottles, I am already excited, hope they have some vintage pieces on their shop

Hope you enjoy your visit.  Anyone invites me?


PS. If you do step by please let me know what you loved and how was your weekend, have fun and see you on my next post ^_^*

I really am speechless about this gowns, those are the best of 2010’s Elie Saab  Haute Couture Collection, they are timeless and edgy, the gold and aquamarine are my new it colors for this winter, and who doesn't want to be married on that ashy sparkling grey and feel like a fairy princess, I know I do.

Now the year is almost done this is a must have inspirations for Christmas and New Years Eve's parties maybe you wouldn’t use something that elaborated but you should definitely go for the Golden and Aquamarine incorporate this to your outfit and own the night.

Thanks for reading XOXO ^_^* 

P.S. 

Dear Santa 

       As you should know I've been a very nice girl, a really good daughter, friend and coworker, I always pay my debs, help others everytime I can and try to give a smile at everyone so this world is full with happiness, you know that not often I ask for much but maybe this is the exception so could you please please hold the Elie Saab bridal gown for me to whenever i get married?  It would be the best present ever and I would faint ^_^* 

Thank you very much
Love KC
Give me leg warmers and a black skirt and I'll conquer this season

Inspirational feeling

Today I felt the adrenaline that only music and jumping off an airplane has made me feel, I love how music makes my heart beat and gives meaning to living, love how it can separate you from the world and just makes you feel, it is inspiring, it makes you believe in a different world just believe that everything is possible if you only let go and do what you do best (whatever it might be) so for me is like a drug in a good way it makes me happy and free, it is like pure freedom, no strings, no limits, no matter what kind of music you love… 

I guess as always I make no sense, but for me is one of my biggest and deepest passions when I’m feeling down, melancholic, happy, with lack of inspiration, or maybe when I feel like missing something or something is not right it is always there to make the moments of my life better or deeper. 

The cherry of my day was going to the movie theater and watched “Seguir siendo Café Tacvba” (Keep Being Café Tacvba) and I cried, laugh sing and almost danced in the middle of it, lucky me we had the cinema for just the two of us so I did not wanted to end, It is amazing how music can break barriers of time, language and culture, and it also makes me proud of the Mexican talent in every way so if you are into music and you have no clue of who Café Tacvba is you should watch its documentary about its 20 years being one of the best bands ever. Here is the trailer (I'm sorry I did not find the english subtitled version)




I’m one of the unconditional believers of living life passionate, digging the deepest and flying the highest I guess this is why we are here so I feel the need to embrace every moment with a playlist or a song and only sometimes with silence, so I leave you with one of my favorites songs of all times

The art of fashion


Almost 3 weeks ago I visited Madrid and while I was there I spend most of my time on museums, galleries and shows which I totally love, so I went to the Mario Testino's "Todo o nada" latest exhibition held at the temporary gallery of the Thyssen Bornemisza Museum (which is a must see if you ever visit Madrid or even if you live there). 

Anyway let me tell you it was just amazing to admire not only because I love fashion but because he reflects the true beauty of his muses and it takes you to this journey into femininity and nudity without even noticing.

So totally recommended not only if you are interested on photography, art, fashion or you are just curious, but because it tops any expectations you might have.

So if you have the chance don’t miss it
See you next post ^_^*

Having fun with H&M STUDIO

Fall is here so you should choose the right accesories and play

Red heels,what more can I say


Mixing styles, love this polka dot skirt
I love rocker look for guys



Today I spent my day on styling for a friend and while doing it found this nice application on H&M website which I think is so cool, so if you like them go buy them ^_^* and no I am not getting any profits on doing this, but I thought it was nice to share what you can do with their website in case you hasn't already used it and I guess they need to update so we can play with the new LANVIN collection. By the way I added the link, so have fun.

Until my next post ^_^*

Personal style

All this pictures were not taken by me
I happen to love street style and how people put together their outfits, I would describe my style as Minimalistic with a touch of edgy city rock, love how a bit of color can make a look outstanding and for me it works perfectly. 

I guess the point of fashion is make you feel beautiful, comfy and to let people know you are making your own statement "Look at me, what you see is what you get, and I love to play with it" everyone has its own definition but you should know that with clothes comes an attitude and a mood, it doesn't matter if you wear the sexiest dress ever, the it bag or the latest trend, if you don't feel like what you are wearing then try to look good on what express who you are. I guess what I am trying to say is that it all comes down to personality, for me fashion is all about expression and interpretation, not everyone else’s but your own, then you can start playing with different trends and styles. I personally admire people who can make different styles their own and rock it. So try different outfits and styles, color and textures until you find the one that shows the world who you are and then when you find it star all over again, that’s the fun of it  

Thanks for reading and don´t forget to comment ^_^*



6:AM



My name is Karla and I'm a Mexican Publicist, PR and freelance stylist who happens to love fashion, music, arts and design, so this little mix is what makes me feel alive every day this is what makes me breath, love finding new ideas, people, shapes, shades and feelings.

I am a small town girl with big dreams so I did this blog because I felt the need to put together all the things I love in one place and why not? I've been following bloggers around the world and I just wasn't feeling ready to do my own until now, the reason is I am not consider as a talkative person and I am not so good with words, maybe because I have so much to say that I mess it up by trying to make sense of it, and to tell the truth a little late night confession I am a bit scared about exposure, but I rather do it than keep dreaming on doing it so welcome to my hectic, crazy, clueless and colorful world, hope you enjoy it.

See you on my next post ^_^*
