Linda Evangelista for Prada 08

Okay guys, you all know I have e weak spot for the previous generation of supermodels and one of my favourite models are as you probably know from reading my earlier posts the fabulous Linda Evangelista. She is doing the campaign for Prada this fall and I thought I'll share these pics with you guys. What do you guys think? I think she looks stunning but the pictures are a little bit to stiff for my taste though, since I love moment, I need to feel something when I see a campaign....I love her look but I think the photos could have been better.

I thought I share one of my favorite handbags which are simple and classic and that you can wear this next season without getting the cold shoulder or stuck up comments from "little cunt's," with daddy's black card and way to much time on their hands! (Pardon my french).


Braided hair is in as you know by now, what I like with this style is that it is easy to do yourself and it's cute. So go home and try it out!

The makeup for this fall is exiting and it's bloody hard to experiment when most girls I know anyway and boys by the way loves to stick to the same old safe cards.
But do try it's fun and what do you have to loose, if you end up looking like you belong at Mardi Grass so be it. At least you got noticed and had fun!

Smokey eyes can look great if you know what the hell you are doing but it can also make you look like a two dollar hooker if you are not care full, so go crazy but make sure the foundation looks good with your skin tone and don't wear to much. Most boys don't like to wake up next to girl wearing a war mask...so not hot!


Okay I love big shades, the main reason is that I've got a big face and small shades does not do it for me. I am more of an aviator model girl but I love these shades unfortunately they don't go with my huge ass face. But maybe someone other then me out there would look awesome in these shades from Chanel and Prada. The round ones are gorgeous.

Now to my favorite perfume, people always ask me what I'm wearing. Well you see I am obsessed with scents, I even created my own perfumes when I was a little girl. I love to wear something that is distinctive but feminine but not to sweet. I have to admit I wear men's cologne sometimes, I love it so strong and refreshing....I'm a perv I know, anyway "Rose essential" is my perfume , my boyfriend loves it and you can tell I've been in a room cause my scent follows me where ever I go, but not in a disgusting "I-sprayed-my-self-silly-way", no subtle feminine way.

It's like a trace of me...

Rose essential by Bulgari who have an amazing range of scents and hotels and jewelry are one of my favorite brands. This scent was created in 2005 by Beatrice Piquet of IFF and is gorgeous. I love the bottle I love the colour and I love the scent, so when you think of this think of me...Lol ;-)

Forget about it!


The real "Donnie Brasco" - Joseph Pistone, the guy in the left

Joseph Pistone from his real life undercover


IS IT WORTH IT?

The Mafia also known as the Cosa Nostra is as many of you know a Sicilian secret society and is the fancy name for organized crime in general. As I was snuggling up next to my boyfriend munching away on chocolate and candy bars preparing for a night of action I starting thinking of movies as Scarface,The Godfather trilogy, Goodfellas, Carlitos way and so on. I love Al Pacino and Johnny Depp and they made a movie, Donnie Brasco which is one of the best mafia movies ever made in my opinion, not only because they are such great actors, but because the movie is based on true events which makes it so much more fascinating.

I think it is absolutely fucked up, and I must say, you gotta have some balls to be an undercover FBI agent to infiltrate one of the largest mafia families  and stay under cover for six years in order to bring down about 200 people of the most dangerous families in New York.

This happened in the late seventy's so it's a long time ago, but these things shook up the Big Apple and keep happening all over the world at this moment.

To go undercover to become the opposite of what you know and was trained for must be one of the hardest things a human being can go through. To live under pressure and constant death treat and not knowing if you are going home alive or in a body bag and constantly being surrounded by the enemy like that,well lady's and gentlemen it takes big "cojones" that's all I got to say about that.

The real Donnie Brasco is named Joseph Pistone, and is a real hero, the "acting" he did for six years undercover is the kind of acting that never gives you an Oscar but saves lives.
Donnie Brasco is just one of these movies you never forget when you see them.
The most popular line has to be "Forget about it" but it's pronounced with a heavy Vice guy New York accent. And they probably say that line like a hundred times in the movie and it is hilarious every  time they do so. They are the anti heroes the vice guys as appalling  and fascinating, they are the true anarchist of our time, they don't have the rules that we obey, they make up there own rules. They have their own pride and moral and everything you do is for the family and if you don't obey, well we all know what will happen to those who don't....cement shoes in the Hudson river anyone!?

From the far east you got the Yakoza and they are one of the largest organized crime organisations in the world to the Triads in China to the Cosa Nostra, they are considered small compared to these two crime organisations. They all have one thing in common, they will do anything for power and money no matter what the price might be.
Soldiers of the dark side of or modern civilisation but you can't help as a by stander to become intrigued by all these violent actions and by the fact that people are willing to go to these extents to feel apart of something no matter if it's good or bad.

The organized crime syndicates are like multimillion dollar companies except their activity include lovely things like, drug trafficking, contract murders, money laundering, prostitution, gambling and other forms of racketeering. Another major income source these days are counterfeiting of clothing, computer and software etc. So next time you buy a fake bag you might reconsider, it might be a cheap price for you but it cost more money then you think.
Does child labour ring a bell? Well all I can say guys is that unfortunately real life and movies don't always go well together, real people get hurt and real people dies and this is something we all should try to change if we can and think twice before you by things that are fakes and copy's and ask yourself, is it worth it?

One more thing I just love this conversation in the movie:

FBI tecnichian (Nelson) - What's "forget about it?"
Donnie Brasco - "Forget about it" it's like if you agree with someone, you know like "Raquel Welsh is one great piece of ass" forget about it." But then if like you disagree like, " A Lincoln is better then a Cadilac, "forget about it!" you know? But then, it's also like if something the greatest ting in the world like Mingrios pepper's "forget about it."
But it's also like saying like "go to hell! too. Like, you know, like " Hey Paulie you got a one inch pecker?, and Paulie says forget about it. Sometimes it just means forget about it.

Keep informed and stay on the tracks.

Remember knowledge is power and it's what you choose to do with that information that makes a difference.

Why soo serious?!


Inner peace

Touched by God

Nirvana, it does exist

The devil, very much alive

Life is like a game of poker, sometimes you have a great hand and sometimes you just try to make the best out of it, hoping nobody is going to figure out that you got the worst cards ever.
Life has it ups and it's downs and I guess we need to go trough the tough parts to be able to appreciate the sweeter things in life, but it still sucks when it happens though...
I have done both good things and bad things in my life, but I do like to think that I have done more good. Every day is a struggle trying to make the right decision, trying to be less selfish and making the right decision both morally and righteous but it's darn hard...

Well it's just interesting how much crap you have to put up with in life and I am amazed when I think about my journey trough out life. Friends are a rare commodity and so is true love.
I have realized that nothing is free in life, you have to struggle and fight for everything from love to friendship, family, career and happiness.

But it's the struggle itself that makes it worth it, my life would be very boring and meaningless without it, though I have to admit that sometimes I wish," just like you reading this" it would be nice if it would be a little bit easier...if you catch my drift.

So what doesn't brake you, makes you, if you can still stand up and fight for what ever you be live in then that makes you a winner in every way.

I like to take walks it helps me clear my head and when I am pissed of about something or someone I go for a run, every step I take, well somehow it just makes me feel better.
It's like therapy and exercise combined in one...I probably sound nuts for saying this!?

Even at the darkest moments of my life what makes me pull my shit together are two things, I remind myself that it's not over until the fat lady sings and I take strength in God.
I believe there is a reason for everything even when bad things happen.

I am not a bad person I am just a good person that do bad things sometimes and so are we all.

I believe in good and bad as much as I believe in life and death. and it is sad to see people spending so much time being jealous and hateful towards other people, the biggest looser in such a scenario is the person spending their precious moments on negative things that will only end up hurting themselves in the long run.

Karma is interesting  I believe that what you do as an individual, that the good and the bad that comes from ones actions  will have a huge effect on your life, God knows that I have been exposed to both. I felt compelled to write what I feel right now and I feel calm though I am standing in the eye of the storm, I believe in good and I believe in myself and I believe in the people I love and cherish most. 

I may be on the pursuit of happiness and when I say that, I don't mean that I'm not happy, just that I want to be able to feel happiness more often even when darkness surrounds me.
And I believe I'm on the right track to achieve that, it might take longer then I expected but it will happen.

I have always been my own toughest critic, never pleased with what I achieve and being a compulsive over achiever I realize that the only one I hurt is myself, I have to start loving myself and that is the hardest task I have ever been given. Will I succeed I hope so.
I use to be angry at the world, all this injustice and evil, sometimes I still am but I see things more positive then before and I try to take that anger and turn it to something positive this probably sounds like a cliche but I don't care, it's the truth.

Humor helps me through life, I laugh even when it's bad and then I cry. With out being able to see the funny sides of life I would have probably given up along time ago.

Life is not suppose to be easy it's like test from the All mighty and if you try your hardest and make the best out of it and learn from your mistakes then I am pretty sure you will succeed.
It is not religion that is bad it is the people that uses religion as a tool to receive power over others that are bad.

That's enough from the "Love Guru" Olinda today...

Peace out

Stay strong and laugh your ass of it helps!!
