Our little FC Barcelona did it, beating Manchester United in the Champions League finals in Rome this past week. Check out the celebrations below. Makes us want to book our ticket a bit earlier and head off n.o.w.

Fans coming out all over Barcelona to celebrate

The team, famously referred to as “More than a Club”, heads straight to their fans upon arriving at the airport.

Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, aka Lady Gaga, is currently the media’s little darling. And how could you not want to photograph the flash, glamour and glitz LG brings to the room? Love it, hate it, or even if you don’t get it – she’s comfortable in her skin and brings on the style like no other at the moment. Rolling Stone features her on the cover donned in full disco crimped hair, candy pink accents wearing simply a clear plastic corset with strategically placed bubbles.

 ”When I’m writing music, I’m thinking about the clothes I want to wear on stage. It’s all about everything altogether—performance art, pop performance art, fashion. For me, it’s everything coming together and being a real story that will bring back the super-fan. I want to bring that back. I want the imagery to be so strong that fans will want to eat and taste and lick every part of us.”

A smart performer who knows how to grab the public’s attention, Lady Gaga truly knows her own style which we commend and fully encourage.

As we take a break from fashion and shift our focus on Rome today, as our lovely Barcelona take on Manchester United in the Champions League final match, we pass on some links that are certain to be of invaluable interest to you. Okay, they’re sufficient to pass the time.
