Desigual and Hookerfeathers

These pictures were taken a few weeks back, which is why they don't show my rainbow hair quite yet! I will post about it! I just want to get some good pictures of it first. =)


I actually got this skirt in Rome, when I was there training for my previous job (yeah, the international training was pretty sweet). That is where I discovered Desigual - awesome brand that unfortunately is not available in my area. I randomly come across it occasionally at little boutiques when I travel.




I wish the images captured the skirt's design a bit better. Desigual clothing (at least the ones I have seen and am drawn to) are all about prints in various inks (including metallic), embroidered designs, patches with intentionally visible stitching, and overall randomness. And yet it manages to look cool, not chaotic. I personally love it.


I also love my gorgeous Hookerfeathers necklace by Natalia Fabia. And yeah, that really is the name of her jewelry store! Heh. Natalia is an amazing artist.

Oh, and last time I visited the Desigual website (a while ago), it was not set up for direct online purchases. Looks like now it is. This means trouble for my bank account!

P.S. In anticipation of a busy week, I scheduled this post ahead of time. You will definitely hear more about yesterday's photo shoot soon!

    I had noticed their very colorful splashy with the distinctive mirror image "S" advertising on the side of a building near Macy's Herald Square NYC! So when you come visit...

  7. Desigual in Madrid was a true pleasure to visit. Since it was across the street from the hotel I stayed in, I must have visited it at least 4 times in the week I was there!!! Love their colors.

  8. I first saw Desigual in Las Vegas and felt in love with the originality and the playful bold colors. Then I saw a four story Desigual store in Madrid, right across the street from the hotel I stayed in! Needless to say, I visited the complex almost every day....while I was in Madrid.

    1. Desigual has locations all over the world... but the most dangerous for me is their online shop!
