Blazin Bell will make y’all figure


Children

Bell is inspired by her heart when it comes to the clothing she produces, that’s what makes them so special. She moves on the flow of whatever life brings her. All her work is done by hand, to keep the ‘love’ alive within the clothing. All her positive vibes and energy are put into it.

She customizes brand new clothes or she recycles old pieces into new ones from her own special point of view. The people for whom she makes the clothing give her inspiration to put something personal within every piece. Every piece of clothing is a custom made product with a twist of Blazinbell.

One of the biggest inspirations for Blazinbell is the way traditional clothing was made through the course of history all over the world. With this inspiration she creates her own personal production proces: the clothes are crafted using old techniques but at the same time futuristic and timeless.

BlazinBell designed the capes we use @ Tommy’z Toko

Vilena Style

Vilena Style

Vilena-style photo:
A new trend in Russia sees Russian women taking digital photos of themselves
lying stomachs down, butts up on their beds.
It all has started after the lady from the photo above has posted her photo on
Russian social network. She became popular very fast for this photo.
Some people say because of her enormous bottom compared to face,
some say just because of the look of her eyes, some are sure that just in overall this photo is cool. Now, hundreds of Russian ladies try to make a photo in such position, as you can see below. The call it “to make Vilena-style photo”

Vilena that’s the name of the first girl.
