Viva la vida!

PRESS PLAY Viva la Vida - Coldplay

Last Sunday I went to the Coldplay concert in Rio. Absolutely fantastic! Amazing art direction, and a very vibrant concert. I really didn't expect that much, since most of the songs are kind of depressing, but it was a good surprise. At some point giant confetti bombs with millions of butterflies turned the night into a fluorescent fairy tale.

Although it rained a lot until minutes before the show, it didn't ruin the night. t hasn't been cold in Rio for months, I think they just brought the British chill! The Bat for Lashes opening concert was also really good, with a astonishing scenario. Lovely night! Too bad my boyfriend is in NY working :(

Multishow Music Awards

PRESS PLAY All my loving - Rita Lee

Carol showed up last Tuesday with 2 last minute invitations for this music awards party. Nice! I saw some people I haven't spoken with in ages, from different times of my life. We danced so much Carol's skirt didn't resist. Great surprise for random week night :)

I chose this song for the post for 2 reasons; the singer, Rita Lee, received a very much deserved homage that night and the lyrics are for my dear boyfriend who couldn't come along.

my sister's birthday party (or with a little help from our friends!)

PRESS PLAY Billie Jean - Michael Jackson

Last Friday I had a blast at my sister's birthday party with music from the 80's/90's . I even did some moonwalking! All of her old friends danced like they were still in their 20's and didn't have kids, some extra pounds and some missing hair... I was nobody the day after, and I'm only 32! I'm not sure how they have survived...

My special thanks to Junior and Roberto who very nicely and bravely let us have this party there and to Ricardinho for making us travel on time playing all we loved to hear. Friends are the family we choose :) Thank you friends!

Dancing with the stars

I made my boyfriend buy a Converse and took him out to dance!

PRESS PLAY Living la Vida Loca - Rick Martin

Carol, Felipe, Jonata and I went to Club 69 for a fun pop music dance night. Now I LOVE Converse even more cuz I just found out how comfortable it is to dance with it! Oh, and the hand is not mine, it's Carol's.

I keep dancing (rock 'n roll)

boyfriend's graduation

PRESS PLAY You Only Live Once - The Strokes

I LOVE Melissa

I LOVE Havaianas

I love high heels, I feel powerfull and classy and all that stuff... but no, I'm not so evolved to the point where I can dance all night with them... eventually when the wine kicks in and I'm singing along with the DJ I will surrender to Havainas. That is a fact. I always have a little bag with a pair. My friend Carol, in the other hand, always with her gourgeous Melissas, is there holding on... you go girl!

Better be safe than sorry... :)

happy drunk dancing on my friend's brother wedding...

...after giving up on heels and surrendering to my feet's best friend, Havaianas :))
