Day off 261111

After two crazy university weeks, me and my friends decided to spend the whole Saturday shopping, eating and relaxing. When you live in London, you should know that nothing is relaxed here! At least the shopping and eating part worked out. I met a girl with some great "Chanel" vintage shoes, unfortunately she didn´t want to sell them to me ;)

We were trying so bad to take some pictures, but the wind was too strong. Look at the delicious dessert that we had!

Just continue to be my sunshine

Let´s go back to the late 90´s and try to remember one of his biggest songs. I´m still obsessed with the beat and the lyrics. He is definitely one of my favorite rappers alive! Even 14 years later! I was nine years old when the song came out, but still remember it like it was yesterday!

>If I needed would you, give me your kidneys?
(Uha fo' sho')
>Catch a case you catch it with me?
(Mmm, fo' sho')
>Pawn your jewlery to come get me?
(You better know)
>Catch me with a chick, forgive me?
(Uhh, now that, I don't know!)

...Any idea who it could be? Let´s see Mr. Hova himself rock it in 1997 with Foxy Brown...

Winter Wonderland 271111

OHHH, we had such an amazing day at the Winter Wonderland in London. I was running around like a little child, looking for my favorite food and sweets. After eating so much we decided to drive some of these funny rides which you can see below. Not the perfect timing to drive these crazy rides when your stomach is full but it was great and I know, we look hilarious. It´s definitely worth it to visit the Wonderland!

Study Time

Oh my, I had to force myself to go to the library today. Till friday I have to finish a report for university and I can tell you guys that this is the last thing I want to do right now. Of course I had to make a fun of it before entering the big quiet house as you can see on the pictures below. You might now think "wow, Gentiana spent 5 hours at the library, she must have done a lot of work!"...you wanna know the answer? The last picture will tell you ;)

nothing better than a houseparty

Friday night I was invited to a houseparty in London and was really happy about the fact to go to a privat party. It almost seemed to be a party sponsored bei "MCM" because everyone was running around with the bags. Proud to see a German brand being so popular in the UK.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend folks.

V & A Museum - POSTMODERNISM 1970-1990

Today I spent time at the Victoria & Albert Museum, the world´s greatest museum of art and design. I´ve visited the POSTMODERNISM - Style and Subversion 1970-1990 Exhebition. I have to say that I was really impressed by the different art and designs that the V&A has to offer. Unfortunately I wasn´t allowed to take any pictures and my battery was empty. Anyhow, I could catch some pieces for you. Three pictures below were taken with my phone, sorry for the quality.

Postmodernism = It emphasises the role of language, power relations, and motivations in the formation of ideas and beliefs. In particular it attacks the use of sharp classifications such as male versus female, straight versus gay, white versus black, and imperial versus colonial; it holds realities to be plural and relative, and to be dependent on whom the interested parties are and of what their interests consist. It supports the belief that there is no absolute truth and that the way in which different people perceive the world is subjective. Postmodernism has influenced many cultural fields, including religion, literary criticism, sociology, linguistics, architecture, history, anthropology, visual arts, and music.

V&A







No matter what you say, but the left shoe above was designed and invented for me! Absolutely my colors.

left shoe: 'E-Shoe' (A high-heeled shoe guitar)
The strappy high-heels were fabricated by couture shoe designer "Max Kibardin" for
stage perfomances.

right shoe: 'Armadillo shoes' as seen on Lady Gaga
Alexander McQueen had the ability to colloborate with huge range of skilled makers.
His line of Armadillo shoes ultimately involved contributions from 100 people. The
form was inspired by a shape of a ballet dancer.





Grace Jones
This picture is one of three images of Grace Jones, that shows the artificial transformation of her into a synthetic creation. They were fabricated by her partner and stylist 'Jean-Paul Goude', out of many private photographic fragments.



Here you can see a picture of Amber Rose inspired by Grace Jones.
