LIFE IN MADRID

For a few years now I've been dreaming about a life in Barcelona, and I hope that one day this will happen' but until then I will be happy about daydreaming about this amazing apartment in Madrid. A lot of light, beautiful bright colors and a weather that will let you keep your windows opened all day long.

MY INTERVIEW - D.MAE CLOTHING

The interview of this month is dedicated to a young designer from a small town near Philadelphia … and her name is Naimah. She is a really funny girl and I hope you will enjoy our talk. 

Drastic Plastic: Hello Naimah and welcome to Drastic Plastic. What’s up? 

Naimah: Hey Tereza, thanks for having me. I'm working on a few sketches for upcoming designs.

DP: D.Mae, the name of your company, I know where it comes from, but please, can you share it with my readers?

N: I named my company after my biggest cheerleader my MomMom Dora Mae Holmes.

DP: You design tees, what was the first design you ever did? And why tees and not tote bags?

N: The first design was in pencil, a cap-sleeved tee, I drew a collage onto ,and wore to a Dashboard Confessional show. I do actually have a few totes listed in the store now. Tees just seemed at first the easier way to go and gives me a greater space to work with. Although I am loving working in canvas, the texture can be a challenge.

DP: Day jobs, we all have one, unfortunately, what’s yours? 

N: I work in medical transportaion during the day, I also write for High Voltage Magazine an online, and sesonal print music magazine that covers live shows, reviews, and concert photography.

DP: Places and people inspired us, tell me about some of yours. 

N: The combination of the two is important to me, I get inspired being around my creative friends no matter where we are. They all have there fingers in something creative: art, ceramics, writing, photography, music, we're a lively bunch. They inspire me to keep doing what I love. I really. Adore the work of Alexander McQueen, Christian Siriano, Betsey Johnson, and Marc Jacobs in terms of design.

DP: I know you have some free time, I know you do, what do you do then? 

N: There's been alot of time spent listening to various Pandora stations ( Steel Train, William Fitsimmons, Robyn, Glee, Ryan Adams, The Fray, Snow Patrol, and The Script) reading Deepak Chopra, and being with family. 

DP: It was so much fun having you here Naimah, thank you so much.

N: Thank you too Tereza. 

For more info and ideas please visit Naimah’s blog and her shop, she is worth it.

RED LIPS

♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Grems - HUMMER ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪

Today, two things made me happy, red lips and snow! Red lips, next to red nail polish, in my opinion are the perfect accessory. That is why I wanted to have some fun in the snow and sun like a kid. The weather changed a lot in the last weeks, and at last winter is here and I love the way that I look in winter clothes. This is me being happy in the snow :). Have a sweet weekend lovelies!

PRE MOSCHINO

I am not a ballerina or a princess, but thanks to the dresses and the skirts from the pre spring//summer collection Moschino any of us can feel like that. Tutu skirts, big dresses, beautiful colors all over the place. What I'm not sure about is the sandals, sorry but so not my style.

JACO HAASBROEK

I love illustrations so much and the ones created by Jaco Haasbroek are the cutest ones I've seen in a long time. And, as long as the illustrator has an amazing sense of humor, it's even better. I though we should start February with a smile on our faces, we deserve this. Happy February!
