Aesthetics of Triumph, Morodanesque

What Tops an Haute Couture Dress?

By

And when I think about the fact, that, not so long ago, I was dreaming of purses, shoes, jewelry (well…I’m still dreaming about lots of diamonds), hats, scarves, dresses and…more dresses.

Well, burnout or not, my supreme desirables today are all about silence, serenity, nature, a relaxing massage, tea, walks in the forest as many times as I can, a good night’s sleep or just a few moments of rest in a rather dark room with thick, velvet curtains, on a comfortable bed. And as time goes by and as I discover more and more things about myself and what real happiness means to me, I understand the undoubted importance of certain objects. Which who knew? Are not clothes. *

Prima dată când am auzit de SomProduct, a fost când Emil mi-a spus că a cumpărat o saltea nouă și că tehnologia acesteia este absolut remarcabilă. Câteva luni mai târziu, am primit un email de la Dora, care ne spunea că fetele din biroul SomProduct sunt înebunite după Ana Morodan și ar fi încântate să începem o colaborare pe unul dintre produsele lor de top, salteaua Pocket Memory Chocolate. Toate detaliile tehnice le găsiți la ei pe site, însă ceea ce ne-a înnebunit încă de la început, este mirosul ciocolatei. Like whatttt? Nu am mai auzit de ceva asemănător până acum. Ever.  inima-albastru

 

After reading everything about it, about the Memory foam, about how it protects the spine, about how its technology (yes, Costrut, you were right) keeps the blood circulation in a normal state because of its lack of pressure points, and, and, and.

I made up my mind, I was going to test it and write about the whole experience. It’s the correspondent of a haute couture dress #haha. So, we took the Pocket Memory Chocolate mattress to the most relaxing and serene spot I know in Romania. At Valea Verde Retreat there’s a small hill, if you take a walk to the top… all you can hear are the sounds of the village far away in the background, the silence, the mild wind…If I were to describe in words the feeling I experienced while being in the middle of the nature, on a couch (def tops a blanket on the ground, sorry nature huggers fans), with a beautiful setting, enjoying a few moments of solitude, will just make the magic disappear.

This experience shall fuel me with energy for a long time. And without any pr, I’m buying a memory mattress. After all, it tops an haute couture dress. 6b

 

* Still acknowledging their empowering role. Still love them. Just not the most. 5b

 

Oh, before I go, here’s Costrut, carrying the mattress up the hill. Poetic.
