La moda no es solo eso que pasa sobre las pasarelas, es también lo que pasa fuera de ellas y no hay mejor manera de saber que es lo que realmente se esta usando que pispeando looks ajenos. Desde celebridades del mundo de la moda a gente común, cientos de fotógrafos alrededor del mundo se pasean por las calles de las capitales de la moda poniendo su ojo sobre peatones y asistentes a eventos y desfiles para mostrarle al mundo como adaptar las tendencias a las calles y todos esos pequeños detalles de la imagen de una persona que valen la pena ser observados.

Debo admitir que mis primeros pasos en la Blogósfera fueron recorriendo blogs babeando por la manera tan sencilla que muchos tenían de pasear la alta costura por las calles de Nueva York, por lo que en estos pocos meses he armado mi colección de blogs favoritos y hoy les traigo un top 10 de los que yo considero como mejores blogs de moda callejera (o Street Style), de acuerdo a sus contenidos asi como también al diseño de la página y su navegación.

Fashion is not just what happens on the runways, it is also about what happens outside and there's no better way to know what is currently in than checking out what other people wear. From fashion celebrities to regular people, hundreds of photographers around the globe walk the streets of the fashion capitals head for pedestrians and atendees to the big events and fashion shows to show the world how to adapt trends into street style and noticing all those little details in someone's look that are worthy of being noted.

I must admit that my first steps in the Blogosphere were surfing around blog drolling for the simple way that many had of showing haute couture in such a simple way down the streets of New York, so in this few last months I've put together a list of mi favorite blogs and today I bring you a top ten of those that I consider the best street style blogs, according to the content as well as web layout and navigation.

BILDER MIC ECHECHIQUÍA

Acá esta, el video oficial de la hermosa jornada de la que les conté en un post anterior. Decidí ponerme una pollera corta negra, camisa blanca y un blazer largo azul eléctrico con los zapatos que usé para mostrar como estirar zapatos apretados, más un clutch blanco vintage. Fue un día tan lindo!

 Hoy es el primer día de desfiles y todavía no sé que me voy a poner. Los mantengo informados de como fue todo en los próximos días. Deseenme suerte!

Here it is, the official video from the great evening that I told you about in a previous post. I decided to wear a black skirt, white shirt and electric blue long blazer with the same leopard print shoes that I showed you in the how to stretch tight shoes post, plus a white vintage clutch. It was so much fun!

Tonight is the first day of the fashion shows and I still don't know what I'm gonna wear! I'll tell you about in the next few days. Wish me luck!

PS: Sorry, everything's in spanish!

Este no sería un blog de moda si no hubiese un post sobre la maravillosa y creativa Anna Dello Russo. He desarrollado una sana obsesión con ella y la manera en la que se divierte con la moda y todo lo relacionado con ella. Es super inspiradora y siempre muestra un perfil diferente de su único y alucinante estilo.

Pero, ¿quién es Anna Dello Russo?

Dello Russo nació en 1962 en Bari, una ciudad al sur de Italia. Obtuvo un diploma en Literatura Italiana e Historia del Arte en la Universidad de Bari y asistió a la Academia Domus en Milán. Antes de asumir su actual puesto de Editora Senior en Vogue Japón, Anna pasó 18 años en Condé Nast Italia, como editoria de Vogue Italia y editoria de L'Uomo Vogue desde 2000 hasta 2006.

Excéntrica, segura y única en su estilo, ¿qué mas se puede pedir?

This wouldn't be a fashion blog if there wasn't a post about the marvelous and creative Anna Dello Russo. I've developed an healthy obsession with her and the way she has fun with fashion and what not. She's super inspiring and always showing a different side of her amazing and unique taste.

But who is Anna Dello Russo?

Dello Russo was born in 1962 in Bari, a city in the south of Italy. She has an M.A. degree in Italian Literature and Art History taken at the University of Bari and attended the Domus Academy in Milan. Before assuming her current position of Fashion Director and Editor-at-large at Vogue Japan, Dello Russo spent 18 years at Condé Nast Italia, as fashion editor at Vogue Italia and as editor of L'Uomo Vogue from 2000-2006.

Excentric, confident and one of a kind, what more can you ask for?

La semana pasada, el shopping Alto Rosario (de la cadena de Alto Palermo y compañía) lanzó un concurso denominado 'Alto Rosario Fashion Blogger'. La consigna era escribir un ensayo de hasta 3000 caracteres sobre la moda urbana de la mujer que visita Alto Rosario, acompañado de una fotografía pertinente, y yo decidí subir mi creación inspirada en el estereotipo de una típica fashionista, adaptandola a la vida dentro del shopping.

De entre bastantes concursantes, resulté ser una de las 5 finalistas y el día de hoy se realizó una jornada en la que nos filmaron y fotografiaron y los jueces nos conocieron personalmente y charlaron con cada una de nosotras durante un rato. Lamentablemente, no gané pero me llevé unos lindos regalitos de Melocotón y Ricky Sarkany junto a flores, y la genial experiencia del día. Seguramente pronto les comparta el video resultante del día de hoy.

El premio del concurso era pase a Backstage y cobertura de Estilo Rosario (el BAF local), una órden de compra y traslado, estadía y pase completo al BAF Otoño/Invierno '13, mas una serie de entrevistas gráficas y radiales. Digamos que perder no es lo mas lindo, pero fue un día tan lindo y toda la gente del shopping nos trató tan bien, mimandonos con Starbucks y regalitos, asi que realmente valió la pena.

Un aplauso para Celina, la ganadora, y saludos a las demás finalistas: Mariana, Bianca y Carmen.

Last week, Alto Rosario (a local shopping mall located all over the country) launched a contest named 'Alto Rosario Fashion Blogger', looking for someone to become their own blogger and social media expert. All you had to do to participate is to write an essay about the urban fashion and trends of the women who buy in their stores, and upload a photo that illustrated what you wrote, so I decided to upload something and test my luck, inspired in the stereotype of a fashionista, adapting it to the experiencie that the hole mall provides.

I turned up to be one of the five finalist out of around a hundred applications and today we spent the morning shooting a video and some photos for the video that will be played in next week's events. We got to meet the judges personally and talk to them for a while and later the winner was announced. I saldy didn't win but I came home with an invitation to next week's fashion shows, flowers and some presents from two stores you can fin at the mall. I'm sure in a few days, they'll release the official video and I'll show how it was.

The prices were a backstage and VIP pass to Estilo Rosario (The closest to a local Fashion week that we have), a gift card to use at the mall and an all inclusive experience for Buenos Aires Fashion Week in March, 2013. Let's say that loosing is not the best but we had a great time and everybody spoilt us with Starbucks and presents, so it was totally worth it.

My congratulations for Celina, the winner, and greetings for my fellow finalists: Mariana, Bianca y Carmen.

La vida es una búsqueda constante. Mirar, escuchar, tocar, hablar, llorar, reír, sonreír, descubrir... Todo forma parte de la esencia exploradora del hombre (y hablo del hombre en su modo genérico a pesar de que me resulta injusta el uso de esa palabra), parte de su instinto evolutivo que siempre esta en búsqueda de crecer, madurar e incorporar cosas nuevas a su existencia. 

La vida es una búsqueda constante... De la perfección. No se enloquezcan, este post no se trata de ningún tipo de trastorno ni obsesión, me voy a explicar mejor para que se comprenda el porqué. 

Life is a constant search. Looking, listening, touching, talking, mourning, laughing, smiling, discovering... All is part of the exploratory nature of man (and I speak of man in his general way even though I find it unfair to use that word), part of his evolutionary instinct that is always looking to grow, mature and incorporate new things to its existence.

Life is a constant search ... Of perfection. Don't go crazy, this post is not about any kind of disorder or obsession, I'll explain more in order to understand why.
