An early morning wake-up with Rachel Zoe

Wow.. this I think has never happened to me in my whole lifetime.

Okay, yesterday I was quite worried about waking up on time on my first day back and guess what went wrong this morning? I knew it couldn't go that easily! I didn't change the time on my phone. I was all dressed up and ready to go out and when I checked the clock for the last time I couldn't belive my eyes. First I thought I was late and I'd messed it up again with something, but then I checked other clocks and it was really 6.10. I was an hour ahead or behind don't ask me. Incredible. This has never happened before, I have never been earlier than I should have, always on the other way around.

So I thought I should use my time wisely and I was dieing already yesterday to post the pictures of stylist Rachel Zoe's house. Here is only a peek, but as soon as I'll return from school I'll post the rest of the pictures, they're really many!

Have a nice day;)

UPDATE:
Here are all the pictures!
I find it especially interesting to see different people houses when I'm familiar also with their personality and work. An artist's, a designer's, a musician's or a writer's home is like a little sanctuary where their whole world is carefully organized and intimately protected. Said that I obviously leave aside the immensious celebrity villas with 340 bedrooms and 162 bathrooms where the so-said owner lives less then 30 days in a year.
First looking at Rachel Zoe's villa I kinda did have that feeling a little bit. Don't get me wrong, I obviously could see it wasn't one of those Beverly Hills style empty mansions, but it just didn't give me the having-my-cup-of-cappucciono-every-morning-on-my-cozy-sofa sensation, if you get what I mean? And then.. somehow I changed my idea. One thing that mostly convinced me was the house from the outside and the yard. It's really nice and I can prefectly imagine the pool&barbeque parties being throwed or just a romantic night swim in the delightful star and moon light.

What do you think of her house?
Has it enough personality to belong to a famous celebrity fashion stylist?

Back in business!

Hey guys! I'm back ! Finally! Ohhh my trip was so great and it gave me such good energy, I can't even belive it. The wheather was great since the first day I got there, for the first two weeks it didn't stop snowing and when it wasn't it was sunny all day long. I managed to see all my relatives (I have so many of them) and spent some really great time with my closest friends. We hanged out at different events and parties, we even went officially clubbing (since it's strictly forbidden in Estonia to enter the club if you're underaged and this was my first time in Tallinn as a "grown-up"). This time it was all about relaxing too (usually I stress myself to do everyhting to be everywhere to see everyone), my mornings were really lazy and my days weren't planned at all, it was all about going with tha flow... Since it got really crazy in Rome before going there, it was exactly what I needed.. :) I took so many pictures, mainly of the nature, so be patient cause I promise you some really great shoots. I just need to sort them out (out of 2000).

In the meanwhile I thought my first post back in Rome should involve this nice house in Brazil as this year I'm trying to concentrate more and more on architecture, design and interior design. When I first saw this villa I remembered right away about my uncle who's visiting his friends in Brazil... he's probably sitting at the Ipanema beach right now and enjoying the nice view on the ocean (oh yes, and the girls).. What lucky guy. Strange thing, lately I've been quite a lot on the brazil-wave, from the food to the music (even live! on my trip I managed to go on a great jazz concert where they played mixed bossanova rythms, I'll tell you about in my next posts) and I really can't wait to go there on my own one fine day. Has anyone been there? If you care leave a comment about it:)

So before enjoying the pictures of this villa, push play on this lovely song by Astrud Gilberto, one of my faves!

PS! Don't you just looooveeee the stairs? Without them the house loses half of the magic, don't you think so? :)

Groovy New!

Ciao Everyone! I've been absent for a while now and I thought I should do a quick post before you guys forget about me... I've been spending some wonderful time here in Tallinn and seeing all my friends and my whole family.. I haven't even been able to take some serious pictures I promised you before I came here but I'll definitely try to take them on these up coming days. (I'm stayin here until the 15th of January so I guess I'll have the time). The wheather here is perfect: it's sunny almost everyday and it's snowing almost every night. Somethimes while going around in the city I get a feeling as if everything is just covered with whipped cream! I think this is the best Christmas and New Year's gift I could get this year. In the meanwhile I won't promise big posts coming up but I found this wonderful consept store I wanted to share with you guys - Octium Jewelry . The shop opened its doors in October 2009, and is located in 360º mall in Kuwait. The interiors are by spanish designer Jaime Hayon. First when I saw it I couldn't figure out did I or did I not like the interiors.. but the more I checked it the more I started loving it. I like the colours, I like the materials, I like the shapes and the volumes.. maybe only thing I could argue about is the central lilac jewelry table or how should I call it and the lights above them. Maybe it's because of the shapes which do not convince me much.. but I'll close my eyes on it. I guess the reason why I like the most this store's design is because of the retro style reinvented in a totally modern way... and it sort of has a touch of that something special and classy of old 007 movies.. don't you think so?

PS! I almost forgot- GROOVY NEW TO YOU ALL!:)
