Paper Plane

Inspired by M.I.A.'s Song (M.I.A.- Paper Planes) I bought a nice little necklace at ebay. It's a silver coloured necklace with a paper-plane-pendant (PPP), also silver coloured. Paper Planes is a great song, which is also the Soundtrack-song from Slumdog Millionaire which I have seen last week.

I will always love Percy

Since the day I get to know him, I have been totally in love with the designs Percy Irausquin made. When I heard he died, I was totally in shock. I think I even cried for a moment: he should have designed my wedding dress!

Long story, short version: Irausquin was a dutch designer, born in Aruba (Oranjestad, June 26, 1969). He graduaded from the Gerrit Rietveld Academy (Amsterdam) -my younger sister actually studies at GRA at this moment-. After he graduaded, he went to Paris to work for Christian Lacroix. He also worked for Givenchy and Dior. He died in his bathroom August 14, 2008 because he had a stroke. Really to young to die..

I always will have a thing for Percy.. I don't know what it is. I have seen a lot of pictures where he was wearing a necklace with a scissor pendant, which was a symbol for his work as a fashion designer. I really loved this kind of sign and I have been searching for a necklace like that for a long time. I actually bought one myself about 10 days ago at ebay. This love will never end.
