The secret jungle

It has been a long time and I still waiting for my camera little problem to be fixed. Thanks God I have a secret & very efficient photographer with me all day long (Lola, thank you very much)Which means high quality pictures are here to stay...
So having a camera all that was missing was walking around and, of course,one of the stops had to be (pause for suspense)  a vintage store!
 " A small theater in which each piece arises to tell a story of its past hoping to know the present."
 -Ás de Espadas is a relatively new vintage store at Bairro Alto.. Is right after Feira da Ladra on the list of my favorite places to buy vintage earring and is the ONLY store that convinced me to buy creepers (the ones on the last post). Also has a cabaret-ish decór, exquisite musics that make me shake my hips even though I've never heard them and boots that also make me shake my hips but in a different way. What else is there to say?

After that we (me and the secret photographer also know by the name of Lola) went to The secret jungle





A secret jungle that doesn't really look like one but which decór do bring you to your" shun n,n,n,n,n knees"
The first time I saw this place trough the window didn't know exactly what it was but decided to ring and congratulate the owner for its disconnected and still beautiful decoration when ta-da...it can be an hotel or just a place to spend your winter-ish afternoons either drinking a coup of tea or a glace of wine.
This is where us -the animals- get together and where we swore with our paws holding high to never-ever show it anyone. I'm already breaking the rules by even talking about it but what can I do? I'm a butter heart... Can't give the exact location, otherwise wolfs will come after me.
Of course sooner or later, like every wild life secret, it will end up being discovered by mankind.
Well, welcome to the secret jungle ...





A jungle wouldn't be a jungle without a rhino... 

...and the right pries.

We left the jungle...

... to hit the streets

Salute & white socks(I admit it) 

OMG, just noticed this mean-spirited grafitty behind me 

Star wars


- Well, this is my way home    
- And this is mine...         
- So see you tomorrow at school?

- Ok, bye-bye                


 P.s- I just turned 19, how old...

It wasn't a pajama party!

Well we sure had the wine, the fun and each other companion.. but it wasn't a pajama party. Ricardo came to sleep over my house two days in a raw and it was very fun to have one of my best friends here...
We drank wine, we heard vinyls, we made fun of people on Facebook (sorry) and Ricardo watched Gossip Girl ( ...f***ing addicted) and then we fell asleep.
We woke up and overdressed to go grocery shopping, like punks on a jewelry store everybody looking at us- me with leopard shoes and Ricardo with a bad-ass 80's jacket that costed 2 bucks in New York. We cooked ,watched what I believe to be the worst horror movie in the history of  cinema and fell asleep again...found out  Ricardo is the greediest human being when it comes to blankets.
As a reality show voice would say: Who will sleep over next week - Tiago,Lola, Mary... Phantom Lady? Stay tuned to the sleep overs marathon.
It's intriguing just how easily we can be moved by flowers or by Sex shops...
( As my camera broke - situation wich my imminent birthday shall fix- the following pictures were take by an Ipod)


That's how we woke up:

Perfect stranger - Reminded me today is Halloween 

Have fun in this Halloween and wear whatever is the creepiest thing you have. This is the time  reveal your darkest and kinkiest side. Let you inner psycho breathe a little bit, nobody will think it's true even if it is indeed - after all it's Halloween... Me? Well, I will just spend my night  at  home drawing wedding dresses and tripping with Jane Birkin *
