I JOINED THE GLITTER COMMUNITY AND NOT IN THE GLAM WAY


hi whats up am sitting in a cafe in berlin after a coorperate turned messy weekend

this is my first post since my vivienne and demna gvsalia rant and this post features interesting new facts about the balenciaga teddy bear children saga...

i have been wearing some interesting things lately. lots of lingerie. but also random items randomly ending up on my face or body. the best fashion is always gifted or lying in the streets. from rasta beanies to facial glitter. 

my friend who just left the café asked me why the fuck i was full of glitter on my neck....: well.

THE GLITTER IN BERGHAIN KANTINE

so what happened was i came to berlin with work stuff and somewhere between a talk and a meeting i lost my new phone+credit cards. stolen probably cus i am such a dumb bitch. i had just had an interesting and surprising conversation with this old(er) man. due to night life obligations from my previous life as a club politician/bouncer I went with the cultural mayor and other interests to talk club culture with the club commision of berlin. in the city of cph we have no club culture cus people hate noise and love alcohol. the club culture in cph is not found in the city but in the outskirts of the city. anyways one the ppl from the trip who really hates noise turned out to be a fashion photographer in the late 80's and told me stories about documenting vivienne westwood and kathrine hamnett, galliano and early mcqueen namedropping models like naomi and kate. he is like 100 years old and i am going to see his photo archive back in cph... when our lunch convo was interrupted, i just left my phone+cards there on the table and had to go and see Tresor and Ohm in daylight so the cultural mayor and noise haters could learn more about berlin club culture. went back to the hotel phoneless and from there the weekend took some interesting twists. 

ended up in Nan Goldin's appartment for some reason that night and then to ficken3000. was sitting with my friend who was wearing the hunter rubber boots and i was on my yeezy shit wearing rubber boots too and the balenciaga gap hoodie and my homemade trousers that say TRY ME on the ass. then a french guy chatted me up in the dark room and lets just say he TRIED. using so much sarcasm and irony that i thought it was year 2010. the indie sleaze is really taking on now. his opening line was i am french and i hate bad sarcasm. we talked for some time and he was being sarcastic the whole convo. he also kept talking about his gayness until he said how he liked teenage girls. i realised his sarcasm was his pathetic way off flirting. happens a lot here in berlin that cunty boys come up to me and i am cunty back and then they stop being gay and then they are like straight and i am like wtf

the french guy kept saying he was rich (sarcastically but also he was rich so again wtf). he bought me some drinks and on the way home i told my friends about his teenage girl comment and one told me he was the image director of the balenciaga teddy bear campaign lol.... everything is starting to make sense now. u can excuse everything u do or say by calling it sarcasm right after - instead of standing up for urself and embrace the cringyness of being sincere. whether ur a french gay or balenciaga? i dont care what u do as long as u mean it. 

went to a (very aquarius) bday at berghain kantine the next day. crowd was a good mix of the regular non binaries, rich artists, a pregnant woman who was beautiful and who probably had a career in fashion and the club and then this particular style icon wearing face glitter, a desigual looking ensemble and two fanny packs one in leather and one in faux fur giraffe print. she stopped me on the dancefloor and asked me if i wanted glitter in my face. usually i would have said no for aesthetic reasons, when i go to the club i wear what i want but i dont wear black and i say no to glitter ppl lol. but when ur phone and cards are stolen u dont really give a fuck so all of a sudden she was pulling out the vaseline and the 50 shades of different glitters from her giraffe fur bag and i then was in berghain with face and neck full of glitter. i got to experience the PLUR from the inside. peace, love, unity, respect! joining the glitter community is a big eye opener and all of a sudden ur a part of this tribe of ppl in ponchos, eyes rolling, mouth going. it's all PLUR. you go home and google stuff like desigual and wall rugs. and glitter doesnt really come off so now i am stuck with it. je suis glitter community. 

i have to go to the airport now and navigate going home without money and phone. fashion week has begun in cph and i am walking and dj'ing its giving pre financial crisis decadence for me but it pays way less LOL 

ciao for now 

xoxo bella
