Over the last few days we’ve been busy getting ready for the greatest pyjama party of all time. Naturally, the event was accompanied by all the ‘must-haves’: music, dancing, fun and laughter, colour, balloons, adventures and loads and loads of pyjamas.
We watched Madrid and Barcelona fill with outfits designed for dreaming in, featuring a wide range of prints and all the colours of the rainbow.

Change the world? Me? And why not?
At last the world is starting to realise that there’s an alternative form of consumerism.
It’s taken us all quite a while to grasp what sustainability really is, and whilst each of us has our vision, at least we all seem to share the same goal: a better world.
As fashion designer Vivienne Westwood said, “Conformity is one of the symptoms of a civilisation in decline! If we’re all thinking the same, then we’re not thinking”.
Life is all about starting over! Coming up with new ideas; changing little things that can make a big difference “redoing our way of doing things” as a famous brand of sportswear once urged us.
Lots of people are taking on board this new concept and reinventing their lifestyle.

On 30 June, the w’s store on Orense Street in Madrid became a temporary concert venue for an unplugged session by Russian Red, who played several of the tracks from her recently launched second album, Fuerteventura. It was a fun, unique and special evening and everyone had a great time. Since only a few fortunate fans were able to attend, we’d like to share it with you.
In the last few years, singer and composer Russian Red (Lourdes Hernández) has become one of the biggest names on the Spanish music scene. With just her guitar and inspired by a wide range of musical styles, she decided to upload her songs onto the Internet, just as a hobby. She never dreamed that it would give her the opportunity to make a career out of her love of composing. Her first album, “I Love Your Glasses”, was a real success and got her known. And in May this year she presented her second album, Fuerteventura, recorded in Gasglow with Toni Doogan (David Byrme or Mogwai executive productor) and along with some of the Belle &Sebastian music players, that will be launched in 18 countries around the word in 2011.
