@Ibiza, where Black is Heaven…
Dear readers,
after the mystical path of Santiago, made of dark and sudden sun, I couldn’t blog that much as I got kidnapped in a tex mex villa in Ibiza listening at dark electronic 80′s music and drinking Cider almost all the day with an east-german (I underline east, because he is very proud of that) old friend of mine…Still with a path of dark and sun we are dealing with, but this time the sun was ways hotter… and the dark fading to grey…
The Tower and the swimming pool of the Villa..
Jan Eugene and his very 80′s toughts…
The style
The Mirror and I
The main theme of my vacation in the”Island of the Pirates” was orchestrated from a very dark Anne Clark’s 80′s song : “Heaven” which I suggest you to listen here . Interesting how I feel sometimes closer to the 80′s kind of sad dark dramatic electronic themes more than many modern ones.. It may be my mental complexity or simply because I like to hear what I think about myself and the view I have on life. Clearly very black, yet very bright.
"Every day is heaven Moves further and further away Familiar blue eyes I once knew turn a colder shade of prey Every day is heaven Moves further and further away Familiar words we used to share Seem so difficult to say And I am alone In a world of cold flesh, cold steel, cold stone I close up like a clam And shut the world out with the slam of a door To shut out all the fighting, all the hatred, all the war You just cannot stay calm When your soul screams less But someone always wants move What for ? Every day as heaven Moves further and further away Familiar blue eyes I once knew turn a colder shade of prey Every day Heaven moves further and further away"
Follow the white tiger…
The lady and the beast, how I like to say. Today not only black, but a nice black and white animalier bikini to reveal and enhance the “bright side of the moon”: the lady’s wildest uncivilized half inner nature…
If you are seeking for a land end point, where everything stops existing, to desappear into the extreme wildness of the nature, like in a Herzog’s documentary… then…follow the white tiger…
Big credits again to Pati for the amazing photos…
Featuring a black and white Bikini from Yamamai.
You can see it as a “zebra” animalier pattern or as a “white tiger one”.. I prefer the second view on myself:)
Wearing my own necklace chain leash choker with the bikini… How to say… leash the beast if you are capable of…
The white tiger resting a bit on a old archeological stone….
The location is an amazing wood with a very cold mountain stream in the middle in Sarria…
A white tiger or maybe a Venus refreshing herself…
Where will she bring you next time… you will discover it very soon….
@Santiago: where have you been my dear Snow White….
Dear friends and fans, let’s go black and innocent for today..
As you have always seen bad young ladies posing as guest models or main models (first of all me), a young good girl is at the corner, for you.. and dressing all black…
Where have you been my dear Snow White?
Today I am introducing you to a new friend: Paula, a spanish girl, friend from Pati.
Paula is wearing one of my Denny Rose favourite black short dresses so, for today we have two new things:
A) a nice looking “good and innocent” girl dressing black (is she really that innocent as she seems? I guess, this you will have to discover by yourself…)
B) A Spanish girl dressing Denny Rose which is mostly an italian brand not very diffuse eleswhere….
A black frontal big ribbon and a very short dress… a special flair, a mix between extreme innocence and provocation. I was described as well, as more innocent than usual, wearing that dress.
Innocent as Snow White under a pale sun of late afternoon….
Playing with the tree.. be careful Snowhite not to be tempted to eat a golden apple…
The beauty and the tree….
Getting more impositive…
And provocative… as every bad lady does…
….maybe tempted from the lady in black wearing her same innocent dress and hiding behind innocent pourposes?
Dark Lady grinning a bit..while she plans how to deceive Snow White….OH look…the dress is the same.. so the innocent ribbon…
Big credits to Pati, again, for the photos…
@ Santiago, The Ocean and Me
Back to Milan, for now but still I have to show you a lot about my vacation in Santiago De Compostela…..
Pati and her friends were amazing and we really had a good time together.
Today I show you a new black look…the weather was not the best but we decided anyway to go to the beach….directly on the Atlantic Ocean…
Here I am wearing Blanco black fringed dress, (We already spoke about Blanco in one of my previous posts here….) a nice gift from Pati and Louise for my birthday and Luxurissime eco -leather Jacket. I fell in love with this jacket as soon as I have seen it the first time, it has a casual yet elegant cut and the fabric is really soft. A perfect sportswear chic for every kind of matching. Luxurissime is a store I have seen just in Santiago…. you can find there very nice leather bags, jackets, skirts and original clothing… worth to take a look forsure:)
Contemplating the Ocean?
I also did a fast swim directly into the ocean that day(see here), the main issue was not the cold water which I can easily stand and I find restorative, but the cold wind outside and the lack of sun….
At the end it all comes to the Ocean. End land point…
@ Sarria: A dark Lady in a cloister…
Yesterday…a two hours trip by car from Santiago to Sarria, to visit Pati’s aunt who lives there….I had the opportunity to see a bit more of the region of Galicia and not just the nature… Many groups of pilgrims on their ways by feet walking the main street trough the woods a to get to Santiago…( we will talk better about the pilgrims in another post)…
Sarria is a municipality in the province of Lugo, northwestern Spain, in the autonomous community of Galicia. It is head of the region and a popular starting point to begin the Camino de Santiago; many pilgrims (the lazy ones) choose Sarria because the distance from this point to Santiago allows them to cover the necessary kilometers to get the Compostela: 110 km.
Even if not formally invited (for now) I self-invited myself in to take a look at the good job of the monks and their nice relaxing cloister with a central rose garden. A well dressed and slightly chained lady in black is always welcome… don’t you think so?
The Lady in the cloister…
wearing “All the Forbidden Things” chain leash choker, my own creation, Blanco black three gold buttons skirt, Top Intimissimi…
Sarria (Lugo) Cloister of the “Convento de La Merced”
Sarria, Cloister of the “Convento de La Merced”, VITA AETERNA door (no clue what is hidden behind that door, I could just hear the sound of a neverending walk, forward and backward on a wood floor…maybe a father meditating?)
From the darkness to the light… trough the door of eternal life…
In the garden of the cloister…
The roses of the fathers….
I have to say I was expecting a little bit more of cure for the garden, the flowers were not at their bests…
The monastry from the outside…
@ Santiago Eventually at the Beach…
Still in Santiago…
The light finally came out (and as we well know light can come out from different sources.. : the light of Jesus is Lady, my own light out of my dark toughts and moods and the light of the Sun). As Jesus and my own moods are not going to be that indulgent with me, at least, today the SUN partly was….
And here, as promised, a fresh jump into the cold ocean under a bright light..from the sea to the corn to show up one of my latest purchases: a black bikini with black gems from Calzedonia…
Big Credits again to Pati for the photography skills and passion doing that.
The bikini Top is embellished with three layers of black gems, very shiny under the sun…This gems give a stylish rich touch to the very simple and comfortable design of the bra. Perfect for any dark lady at the beach or to lay down in the proximityof a prestigious swimming pool (as main guest of course)…
Regarding black gems on this style, I have seen in the Calzedonia store another kind of top: black triangle bra all covered with black gems…
Praia da Tesla (Noia)
The bikini bottom I chose has a very simple brasilian design with a little square of black pearls on the back part. It’s available, in the stores, a second option of bikini bottom, more classical and covered with a layer of black pearls on the front side… Your choice what matches better your taste and body…
What makes me really happy is that in the last few years many brands, Calzedonia included, decided to give the costumer the opportunity to mix and match the bikinis and to choose different sizes for bra and bottoms. I had many issues in the past as my breast size is bigger than my bottom part and couldn’ t buy many of the bikinis I liked for such a reason.
From the water to the corn…..
For the rest.. waiting to ge more tanned…
kisses,
Alexeia
@ Santiago, Jesus IS Lady…
The Old Town of Santiago De Compostela… seems really to be a mystic place, as said. A path of light and shadows, history, churchs and visions….
The Way of St. James or St. James’ Way ( El Camino de Santiago), is the pilgrimage route to the Cathedral of Santiago De Compostela in Galicia, where tradition has it that the remains of the apostel Saint James are buried.
Legend holds that St James’s remains were carried by boat from Jerusalem to northern Spain where he was buried on the site of what is now the city of Santiago. A large number of believers, since the Middleage, embark on a pilgrimage to this spiritual end land point…
In my own way maybe I am a pilgrim as well… heading to the final answer at all my questions and doubts. The only thing I have always been sure in all my life is this: Jesus IS Lady, and now I got a confirmation of my thesis….
Pati as well seemed to be so convinced that she couldn’t restrain herself to do photos all the day, like under a strange spiritual spell…
Compliments to her for the amazing shots:)
Madonna in Black…
The Way of Light and Sorrow….
Das Ánimas Church (Igrexia das Ánimas) : The black dressed Santa Rita…
The entrance of Igrexa das Ánimas
Inside Igrexa das Ánimas…
A black dressed choir during a rearshal… Notice the violent Christ’s crucifixion painting at the walls behind the choir…
I was amazed to notice that everyone, pati and me (of course) were wearing black, including Santa Rita…
Jesus IS LADY. Illuminated and Illuminating on the way of Heaven and Sorrow.
The Cathedral and the Lady…
Wearing a fresh new black jumpsuit with chained neck from Blanco, (Blanco is a spanish brand of affordable clothing characterized by a good fabrics quality and great designs) while trapped behind the door bars of the Cathedral…. the jumpsuit is very stylish and comfortable, as you can see…
Fuente de Plaza de Platerías
Hostal de los Reyes Católicos in The Labyrinth… of the Lady
I am light. I am darkness. I am Chaos. I am perfection. I am contradiction.
Net ankle boots from Solo Soprani and Calzedonia net socks…
Cardigan and Jumpsuit from Blanco
Jet jewels with religious and pagan simbols (the pagan ones are because of Galicia’s celtic roots) at a boutique in the proximity of the Cathedral… Still looking for a pair of Jet cross earrings…
As it begins it ends, but we can all try to gain our way to immortality…
