or in english something like “girls like you and me”! yes, today this is the name of our feature, but our feature today is not about one project, one business, one handmade thing, but about one person, the one behind this name. today has been quite a busy day and i’m writing this post a little bit later than the usual! mr kobe is dying to go outside, but i really could not go until i wrote this. today is about someone i admire very very much! as i told you previously this feature would not include an interview all the time, because sometimes i just feel like talking about someone, letting you know that this amazing person is out there and without reaching that person, it also serves as a tribute to that person’s work and effort in standing for what that person stands for. usually something really cool and nice! today is about a girl that is exactly like you and me, her name is silvia silva… now who is this girl?

so, silvia has a blog (the one called “raparigas como nós”), a shop about hats and things to wear on your head (gorgeous i must add!) with the most fabulous name “choose your own head”, she is a contributor on trendalert and recently launched with two other friends, a blog dedicated to bloggers (the concept works for me!). as you can see, busy girl here! actually i look at her and i think we have something in common, ass we both strive to be on our own and to make our projects and ideas grow, and if they don’t live forever, that’s ok, because they have lived long enough and the time just needed. and think not that she’s doing this alone. no, she has two daughters to help her through the day, and all of you moms know that this might either be true and very ironic, because working from home and having kids is sometimes one of the hardest jobs on earth, or the let’s go for the plain “the hardest job on earth!”, like she says staying at home for work has so much attached, because home is also the source of endless work.
