I got into this song little by little. I started to listen to it here and there while driving, or in some café in the evening. I like the multiplicity of voices that speak from the lyrics: we all felt like both ways at least once in our lives. The video, using the complicated pattern of triangles reflects as well the complications, angles and cuts that always end up coming out during relationships, despite the purposes we started with. Gotye defines himself as “not a club guy” that would not know how to consciously create a big pop hit, but He also says to put most of his effort writing the lyrics, and so he’s finding himself glad because of the huge success of the song. I think I like this tune: one of those that pop up on the radio while you’re driving around, that sounds like Sting in the Police Era.

Mi sono appassionata a questo pezzo poco alla volta. Ho iniziato ad ascoltarlo per caso mentre guidavo la macchina, o in qualche caffe’ la sera. Mi piace la molteplicita’ delle voci presenti nel testo: tutti ci siamo trovati in entrambi i punti di vista della canzone almeno una volta nella vita. Anche il video con il pattern di triangoli che ingloba le persone rimanda alla complessita’, ai tagli e agli spigoli che vengono sempre a crearsi nelle relazioni, a dispetto dei nostri propositi di partenza. Gotye si definisce “uno non da club”, che non saprebbe come comporre consciamente una grossa hit pop, ma dice anche di mettere molta energia nella scrittura dei testi, e quindi e’ molto felice che una canzone che non era stata concepita per un grande pubblico abbia raggiunto una tale popolarita’. A me sembra un bel pezzo: di quelli che ascolti in macchina alla radio, molto Sting ai tempi dei Police.

Inez and Vinoodh shot the model Daria Strokous for this short film “Secret Garden – Versailles” wearing Dior Fall 2012 ready-to-wear in some cult spots of the chateau, from the Hall of Mirrors to the manicured gardens. Also, the video features an excellent soundtrack: Enjoy the Silence by Depeche Mode. This awesome song, united with the melancholic looks and moves of the model and the unique location, give the video a very suggestive Marie Antoinette feel.

Il video “Secret Garden – Versailles” e’ stato girato da Inez and Vinoodh, che hanno ripreso la modella Daria Strokous con indosso alcuni pezzi di Dior pret-a-porter dell’Inverno 2012 in alcuni luoghi simbolo del castello, dalla sala degli specchi ai giardini. Inoltre il video ha una colonna sonora d’eccellenza: Enjoy the Silence dei Depeche Mode. La canzone mito, unita con gli sguardi e le movenze melancoliche della modella e alla location unica, danno al video un’anima alla Maria Antoinette molto suggestiva.

..Especially from Brooklyn. They have rough sounds, their voices are natural and raw, their atmospheres recalls you of when you were a teen in a personality/mixed with euphoria crisis and the world had no codes of conduct. You could eat a whole cake, brush your teeth or either your hair along with other 60 people in the same bathroom.

This is Writer with Family Dinner, the new video directed by Erika Ochoa.

..Specialmente quelle di Brooklyn. Hanno suoni ruvidi, le loro voci suonano naturali e e vere, le atmosfere ti ricordano di quando eri un teenager in crisi di personalita’ misto a euforia e il mondo non aveva codici di condotta. Potevi mangiarti una torta intera, o lavarti i denti o spazzolarti i capelli insieme ad altre 60 persone nello stesso bagno.

Questi sono i Writer con Family Dinner, nuovo video diretto da Erika Ochoa.

Usually I’m pretty skeptic about this kind of hair accessories, but this looks really cute and easy to wear. They are available in two sizes, a small and a bigger one (and as you can guess I’ll probably go for the big one, not afraid of the fact that huge bow will tower over my ridiculous height..), in six different shades: from shocking pink and blue to blonde and brown.

The celebrity-fan that wore it better is Lady Gaga that chose the maxi version, of course.

Di solito sono scettica riguardo questo tipo di accessori per capelli, ma questo e’ davvero grazioso e facile da mettere (e tenere addosso senza disastrosi effetti-parrucca). Sono disponibili in due misure, una piccola e una piu’ grande (e come potrete immaginare io andro’ per la piu’ grande, noncurante di come quel mega fiocco torreggiera’ dalla mia umile altezza..), e in sei colori: dal rosa shocking e azzurro ai biondi e castani.

La celebrity-fan piu’ bella, e’ ovviamente Lady Gaga, che ha scelto la versione maxi, ovviamente.

Both the large and small bows by Hershesons are available online at Asos.

Potete trovare sia la versione mini che quella maxi di Hershesons su Asos.

Trailers – Shame by Steve McQueen

I wanted to show you, in case you still haven’t watched it, this beautiful “New York New York” trailer version of Shame, the movie (now in theatres) by Steve McQueen (check his work if you don’t know him yet, He’s a very good artist) with Michael Fassbender and Carey Mulligan. I am just amazed how this young actress is becoming more and more enchanting day by day, film after film. I think this clip really conveys perfectly the feelings of being lost and out of control of his life that haunt the main character, played (amazingly) by Michael Fassbender.

Volevo farvi vedere nel caso non l’aveste ancora notata, questa bellissima versione “New York New York” del trailer di Shame, film in uscita diretto da Steve McQueen (grande artista, date un occhio ai suoi lavori se ancora non lo conoscete) e con Michael Fassbender e Carey Mulligan, la quale sta raggiungendo a mio parere livelli di incantevolezza incredibili giorno dopo giorno, film dopo film. Penso che questa clip renda completamente la sensazione di perdita del controllo della propria vita che anima il personaggio principale, interpretato (in modo straordinario) da Michael Fassbender.
