LIPSTICK JUNGLE

            For a time I was really excited about Fox TV Series, I think it was because I didn't have Cable  TV for a long time and Open TV was boring. I liked series of FOX and Universal above all because of the graphics, the fashion, the cameras, the characters with supernatural powers and great things that made me wish I had a life like the screen. Then I realized that was not my life and I stopped watching them.

          It was then when I came across Lipstick Jungle. It was a short series about three normal friends in the big city (well, they were not so normal, they were almost the richest and most powerful three women in New York). All the aesthetics absorbed me, New York City, Fashion, Money, yellow taxis and love, all from the perspective of women. But the greatest thing, and the difference with other series was the camera movements; just because the subject that involves this three women was Fashion Industry, they had to film shoes. And of course I love shoes.

To give you an idea of the series, it is the screen version for a novel by Candance Bushnell, the writer of Sex and the City. And I just read that!

           My favorite character was Victoria Ford, a fashion designer that tries to make her own brand, and suddenly she had no new ideas. I liked her because she was the most romantic.

           I didn't really see all the series, I always had difficulty seeing series because I couldn't never remember the time and day. So, I can't say how developed the story, but the first chapters were great. Also I have always been interested in fashion, but never use it, so, I think it's a strange subjects to me.
