do-it-yourself #3

Hello everybody, 

during a beautiful holiday -and work of course-, and after so so many ice in my drinks I caught cold. So over the past few days in my boredom I inaugurated two virgin canvas that I bought on discounted price in a drugstore. I had varied feelings for the holiday and the cold, so two different style were born on my collages. 

One picture is clear-out, and reflects harmony with the white lace, dried flower and pastel colours. 

On the other you can feel the impact of the holiday, the places where I was. This picture was painted with a sponge, after that I printed on it some rose samples. My printer was a half potato - with a sharp knife I cut the rose sample in it and dipped it in the paint. The girl with flowers is a picture from the Internet, sticked it with napkin technique whereas I painted it. And of course there is my handmade textile- flower too. So, hope you like it :)

do-it-yourself #2

As I promised at my previous Entry, I have prepared a necklace like the Mignonne one. Some remaining denim fabric was the reason for this happening. I made three rose shape in various sizes then I preened on them some beads and slitched them togehter, finally affixed on a lace.The whole is sewn,so it was not difficult to do ;) Hope you like it!

I picked together a lovely apparel for it:

Top: ordered from a magazine; reticule: from a Canadian aunt; leggings: Zara.

And the necklace looks in this way on your neck:

retrospection: SuperStereo on Campus

New video! Now you can see, what a big bang was the SuperStereo dj set on the Campus, on that memorable Friday :) The video has made under Kokas Produktions name - it is our idea of a corporation common with Viktor. Music by Viktor, shots and cuts by me.

today's inspiration: the 60's

Our mother's girlhood, the time of the dance festivals was very sassy and graceful, chaste and skittish. I love this period in terms of fashion and music too. I collected the most fashionable hungarian divas of the 60's, from left to right: Zalatnay Sarolta, Kovács Kati, Toldy Mária, Harangozó Teréz, Koncz Zsuzsa, Fenyvesi Gabi and Mary Zsuzsi. They were our mother's exemplar and their songs with the orchestras are evergreen hits also nowadays!

Enjoy one of my favourite song of these:

today's inspiration: summertime

A graceful summer garment.
Blouse: Bershka; skirt: Zara; belt: from my mother's wardrobe.
Take an ice cream in it :)

today's plant-inspired motif

Here is the talented graphic designer, Sándor Szalay. This is from his portfolio on Behance Network: a packaging for the Hungarian Schiszler Pálinka. Love his organic Art Nouveau style, beautiful on the bottle and box too!

today's inspiration: Mignonne

You can wear these beauties in your hair, on your jacket or as a necklace. The creator was the Mignonne Handmade, it says: 'Each flower is handmade by yours truly, hand cut, pressed with a vintage milliners iron and hand sewn together (...) they are not "perfect" factory made looking pieces, they are all individual and have their own character and quirks.' Yes! Each piece is so fascinating, I would like to fabricate a necklace like this one. I will tell you if it succeeeded ;)

SuperStereo on Campus

And now here is a video made by my boyfriend Viktor -he is the protagonist- and me. He is a dj, plays electro balkan music. This is a promo vid for the Campus Fesztivál in Debrecen, Hungary, where he is going to play on Friday night.

We made this vid in 24 hours with a borrowed camera. We put out his music stuff in the window at home and did a half-our filming: he was playing music while the passers were going along the street. I recorded Viktor's buffoonery, when he informed the people about his party, and that how he pranced and knocked them. We catched a lot of funny faces and tried to piece together these moments in a funny and impressive way. I think it succeeded, thanks in large part for the music. Viktor made this latter and cut the video together. Waiting for Friday :)
