Inspiration time

I’d like to share with you a small moment filled with inspiration that is part of my favorite self tradition - to take some me time and get recharged and inspired. And what inspires me? Art, always. It could be a drawing, movie, song, photograph, also a magazine page with some kind of innovative graphic design composition or a great piece of writing. It could even be a nice fragrance or a great fashion item especially when I’m watching a runway show because so much design work and ideas and creativity is put in literally any product or project - it’s astonishing. Basically art inspires me to make more art. And it’s a vicious circle of art that I adore.

I usually use my days off work to enjoy and explore quality art and also create some pieces of my own. Last week was no exception and I made my best to devote time to my favorite things. And here are some photos I’d like to share with you.

I have been in love with Vogue magazine since forever. I remember when I was very little and couldn’t read the articles but I loved flipping through my mom’s magazines and getting lost in the beauty of the photographs.

Chanel is a brand I truly love. It’s minimalistic classy concept, the strong women image they represent and empower, Coco’s eternal style, Karl’s new wave of trends - just everything! Whenever I am looking for some fashion inspiration, I know I can trust Chanel in everything. Just look at their couture collections and ads, pure perfection.

David Bowie is one of my favorite artists ever and the reason I say artist is because this man is literally a complete Universe of his own - form his music to his style choices and concept album work and stories, definitely a remarkable individual.

And the best way for me to arrange the inspo space was to add a bit of a mood board feeling with the photos. If you’ve been following me and my blog for some time, you already know that I am a big fan of mood boards. Well that’s because having a visual atmosphere builder that sets the mood is always welcomed and in this case the retro vibe sure is strong.

This actually resulted in me writing two rather jazzy songs which are not my usual style and made me feel that I am broadening my songwriting choices which I find amazing. Hopefully some songs are going to be ready for you soon because I already cannot wait to share them. 🖤

How about you? What inspires you? Do you enjoy creating art and of yes, what type of art?

Колекция HM TV Moschino <3

Най-накрая тук и е още по-стахотна отколкото очаквахме! <3 Новата колекция на HM, разработена в колаборация с Moschino, е цветна, дръзка, щура, секси, рок (да, аз винаги намирам рок влиянието и асоциациите :D).

Колекцията беше официално обявена на популярния музикален фестивал Coachella, така че още от пролетта всички веднага луднахме, чакайки да я видим с нетърпение - е поне аз със сигурност. :D След прекрасните аутфити от подобния проект на HM с Balmain, сега бях много любопитна и не знаех какво да очаквам, защото знам, че HM винаги искат да надскочат себе си и да бъдат още по-оригинални.

Самото представяне на колекцията се проведе с бляскаво модно ревю в Ню Йорк и всички модели са в продажба от 8-ми ноември, можете да ги разгледате на официалния сайт на HM България :) Моделите представят микс от екстравагантна градска мода, еклектични смели бляскави материи, много кожа и трендове от 90-те. А това са общо взето моите любими неща <3

Честно казано, HM TV Moschino абсолютно успя да оправдае високите ми очаквания! Не само, че повечето артикули се разпродадоха още в първите часове – и онлайн, и офлайн, а и аз като по чудо толкова много да харесам почти всичко от една колекция, което не ми се случва често и бях супер впечатлена (последно ми се случи с колекцията на Dolce&Gabana от 2017 между другото)!

Наснимах някои интересни модели в магазина, но съвсем не успях хвана всичко, просто няма как, а и доста от нещата явно са се раззели направо като топъл хляб, а аз отидох в магазина привечер след работа. Но да, бях следила онлайн ъпдейтите цял ден хаха :D ;)

Надявам се статията да ви е харесала и нямам търпение да чуя и вашето мнение за новата колекция в коментарите! :)

Brand new HM x TV Moschino collection 2019

It’s finally here and it's better than we expected it to be! <3 The new HM collection, created in collaboration Moschino is colorful, bold, wild, sexy, rocknroll  (yes :D I know I always the one finding rocknroll inspo & aesthetics in everything :D).

The new collection was announced as a project this spring during the Coachella music festival and we've been waiting for it impatiently ever since - well at least I surely have been :D After having seen the amazing Hm and Balmain collab I was very curious and didn't really know what to expect since HM are always trying to be better and more original and to surprise their customers even more with each new project.

We finally show the collection in a special runway show taking place in New York on 8th of November and all the items became available for online and offlin epurchase the same day - you can check out the official HM Bulgarian website :) All the clothes are a mixture of urban extravaganza vibe, eclectic and bold sequines and  textures, lots of faux learher and 90s trends. Well basically almost all I love is here <3

To be honest, the HM TV Moschino did more than fulfill my expectations! Not only did almost everything sell out in the forst few hours - both online and offline in stores - but I personally happened to like very much almost all the items which rarely happens and makes me feel really impressed (last time this happened was when I fell in love with the 2017 Dolce and Gabanna collection btw)!

I took some photos in store but there was no chance I manage to show you every piece because things were selling out like crazy and I visited the store after work. But I had beeen following all the online updates and was pretty wrll informed I shall say. :D

I hope you enjoyed this blog post and I can't wait to hear your opinion about the HM TV Moschino vollection in the comments below! :)
