Sex is not a goddamn performance. Sex should feel as natural as drinking water. It should not require confidence.

Sex should happen, because the moment is ripe. Ripening lips, ripening labia, ripening cock, ripening pupils, ripening state of being. Ripe and augmented and brimming. Your energy goes to your pumping heart, then to every external nerve, then to theirs, on fire.

You bask, roll, play in it. You sigh, moan, laugh. It’s not about being “good in bed.” It’s about being happy.

One should never worry if they’re doing it “correctly.” Sex is not factual. I don’t want your cookie-cutter sex, I don’t want your meticulously crafted, calculated, fool-proof fuck. I don’t want a show. I want you. Let your instincts, urges and whims define that. It’s enough.

What do most girls like? Forget about it. Statistics are meaningless when there’s only one. Hello, here’s me. Here’s you. Don’t worry about taking it too slow. We got time. We got infinite rhythms, combinations, possibilities. Explore each fuck. Take our time. We can do a different one later.

Don’t worry about making me come. I’m here. Right where I want to be. I am overwhelmed by wanting; you don’t have to convince me. I want you because I like you. So don’t put on a front. Don’t taint this.

I’m frustrated—it’s just authenticity I want. It’s originality. It’s passion. It’s joy. Don’t say that something I like is ugly. Don’t compare yourself to the rest. You will live and die with and within your experiences like everyone else. If someone thinks you are amazing, they are not wrong. Their universe is as real as any other; it is forged through perception.

I don’t care if you accidentally slammed my head into the wall, if you slipped out, if my arm cracked, if the delightful pressure of your wet lips on my anything made a silly sound. There is no right way and no wrong way.

“Good in bed,” what. You’re good in my bed. I’m pleased you’re there. I feel it suits you. Shove your technique. Let your memory swallow it. Fuck me like you’d fuck me, fuck me like you feel. This isn’t a test.

The Swan as Inspiration

This birds are my favourite birds.
If I search 'swan' on wikipedia i will find out that the swans are:''Many of the cultural aspects refer to the Mute Swan of Europe. Perhaps the best known story about a swan is The Ugly Duckling fairytale. The story centres on a duckling that is mistreated until it becomes evident he is a swan and is accepted into the habitat. He was mistreated because real ducklings are, according to many, more attractive than a cygnet, yet cygnets become swans, which are very attractive creatures. Swans are often a symbol of love or fidelity because of their long-lasting, apparently monogamous relationships. See the famous swan-related operas Lohengrinand Parsifal."

I love the 'Ugly Duckling' fairytale,it's such a beautiful fairytale.It represents the concept of evolution and underlines how the kindness and good intentions bring nothing but a stable and beautiful state of mind.

This birds are a phenomenon. they are black and funny when they’re little and then they grow up being elegant white and gracefully beautiful  . AMAZING! the most beautiful creatures in this world.

Representing:attachment,sensuality,grace and elegance.They are so beautiful,even though they could be narcissitic and arrogant they are gentle and modest creatures.

The story tells of a homely little bird born in a barnyard who suffers abuse from his surroundings until, much to his delight (and to the surprise of others), he matures into a beautiful swan, the most beautiful bird of all. The story is beloved around the world as a tale about personal transformation for the better.

“No need to accomplish anything is expressed in “The Ugly Duckling”. Things are simply fated and unfold accordingly, whether or not the hero takes some action.” In conjunction with Bettelheim’s assessment, Maria Tatar notes in ’’The Annotated Hans Christian Andersen’’ that Andersen suggests the Ugly Duckling‘s superiority resides in the fact that he is of a breed different from the barnyard rabble, and that dignity and worth, moral and aesthetic superiority are determined by nature rather than accomplishment.

"One day he saw them flying overhead and he was fascinated.'how i would love to be one of them'.He tried to stretch his wings to follow them,but fell back into the water;and when he lifted his head back up again,the big white birds had already dissapeared......During the winter,he had grown a kit and,naturally,his wings had grown a lot as well.Then the ugly duckling stretched his neck and legs,tried stretching out the wings as well...and discovered that he could fly......And there he was  more than repaid for everything he had to put up with before then."

It's June 2012... next year by this time a chapter will be closed and another one will begin ...I will end it like I lived it, with a little bit of  futurist touch,i will flow through the event like I flew through everything.
It's time to start the project ballgown .Feminine but strong, glamorous yet classy.Romantic. Fairytale. Beauty. Enchanted. Inspiration. Whimsical. Delicate.  Vintage. Magical.It will be def. haute-couture , def . riccardo tisci& mcqueen insp, a little daphne here and there , a little my fair lady, a little margot fonteyn ,def . bird inspired , gracious , beautiful , long and eclectic,it will be a contrast, it will stimulate imaginations and confer the sensation that everything is possible. A fairy tale . It's time for me to build a story ...

It will be represent = superstrenght ,moving on ,growin up as a person . It will represent me in every sewing line possible,every part of fabric will be me.

"to be honest I have to tell you that I still read fairy tales . And I like them the best of all"- audrey hepburn

My mind makes up inexistent things and i transfer them into clothes.And it will scream, like donna karan said : ''Let me be the woman that I am, let me show the strenght and power I have as a woman . "

Perfect context for dreams of freedom and wishes of escapeing from the cotidian.I never tried to prove anything,I just wanted to design myself an own life.I mean i am in love with life, i just wanted to have it painted in my own way.You know? It's like when you get as a present a penthouse and you love the arhitecture and you love it because it's penthouse but you just want the walls to be blue or red . That 's for me life .My life is about fashion, this is where i belong to,my whole life, my whole soul,my whole spirit.I just want to show people that life is about fashion, the art of fashion ... What is sublimer than a fashion-show?

What collection has had an impression upon you the most?
Riccardo Tisci the 10 dresses that were never seen on a runway show . That was in 2011 the Haute-couture spring collection that I love the most .Because in my opinion  this haute couture collections of him are elaborate,with atitude and  that express  integrity ...such a beauty , 10 beautiful dresses  that have never been presented on a runway... that's integrity !

I will start by  describing every inspiration i mentioned  . Probably the first will be : " my fav fariy tale", " margot fonteyn","the romanticism"," my fair lady" and the next one maybe " daphne guiness"

"A fresh mode of Beauty is absolutely distasteful to [the public], and whenever it appears they get so angry and bewildered that they always use two stupid expressions—one is that the work of art is grossly unintelligible; the other, that the work of art is grossly immoral. What they mean by these words seems to me to be this. When they say a work is grossly unintelligible, they mean that the artist has said or made a beautiful thing that is new; when they describe a work as grossly immoral, they mean that the artist has said or made a beautiful thing that is true." - oscar wilde

Diamonds will be living forever in this wonderful world

There will come a day in my life when i will wear Erickson Beamon and that particular day I will listen 'what a wonderful world' and I will ask myself :Am I happy ? And if the answer will be no , I will smile,have a glass of pinot noir, return the Erickson Beamon piece and give the money to smbdy who doesn't know who Erickson Beamon is .And if it will be ... 'yes i am happy' I will give the doubled amount of money to smbdy who not even dares to dream about wearing Erickson Beamon . In both cases I will thank god every single moment for giving me two hands, one for helping me and the other one for helping others.And I would stare to everyone and everything around me and I will say to myself... what a wonderful world!
