We're all mad here!

On Halloween's eve I always enjoy craving my pumpkin in different forms especially the faces of my favorite movie characters. I have started to do this since I was very little from the classical scary pumpkin king to Jack Skellington face last year. This year I chose another character from Tim Burton movies (of course...) and that is the Cashire Cat from the Lewis Carroll well known novel "Alice in Wonderland". This character has changed many times but my favorite design was from the movie so I did the best I could to reach that spooky look.

My morning delirium

Soft rays of sun hit my eyelids as a calling to wake up. Oh, that awakening...that hard and tiring awakening. It's a little bit cold and I can't even stand the deafening tweets of the birds outside my window calling me too. What is wrong with you guys? I am the queen of my own world, I am the owner of my own bed, I am the keeper of my own mind. So, today I choose to close my gates, my doors and my eyes to set myself free. Goodbye morning time! 

It's exactly then when all the stories in your head start coming and going very fast like they are in a race for something. That's the moment when you try to realize what really happened that long night before...Your head feels so huge and your memory looks like a grandmother who falls asleep when trying to tell a bed time story. You are weak and the blue light of that morning is all you have. Is this a dream or am I making up stories with you and me, my sweetest friend? What if I open my eyes...will you still be there...with me? 

Stained Dress

It was Tirana's time to be part of the project "City Dress me Up!" by Danica Karaicic.

Out and about

Summer is finally over and we need to get back to the cold rainy days of Autumn. Guess you know my special needs about the season coming. I hate the heat and sometimes I can't wait to get into long sleeves and jackets. There were some days in Italy when the weather was just perfect. I found myself wearing leather vests and leggings like summer was already gone. So, here are some pictures of my outfit I took in a very calm and dark park that afternoon. I know some of the clothes are just being repetitive but hey, I was still a tourist...you know.
Back to Italy, back to brown hair. 

Unleash the red

After visiting Florence, the Vinci town and hanging around the wonderful landscape of Tuscany, there was one other surprise waiting for me in the city of Empoli. My relatives who live there gave me the chance to meet the best hairdresser in Tuscany for they knew my wishes of becoming a redhead. You have no idea how exciting it was! I stayed there for about 3 hours, feeling like a model, talking and laughing italian. The result was equal to what I have always wanted. What do you think? 

Tourist in Florence

As an Art and Design student, it was very important for me to visit Florence for the main reason that is the birthplace of Renaissance, known differently as the "Athens of Middle Ages" . Some of the world's greatest art masterpieces are located in Florence. Talking about masterpieces of the middle ages there are many names to mention such as : Michelangelo Buonarotti, Sandro Botticeli, Donatello, Filippo Bruneleschi, Masaco and of course, Leonardo Da Vinci etc. So, let's say that this city has the greatest concetration of art in the world. I guess that since now, you already have that imagine in the head of my tears - of - joy - face. 

My sweet pandemonium

I'm still enjoying the best days of my summer here in Milan. Every day I go to visit different places, take pictures, trying delicious food and go shopping. "Shopping is cheaper than psychotrist" they say and this stands the most when we talk about Milan. I finally have found myself in many grunge magazines that do not even exist in Albania. What can I say...I'm spoiling myself a lot. I don't even want to leave this place. Wish I could stay here forever!
