The slogan of the Bacelona-based Desigual is La Vida es Chula (Life is Cool)!

“This is the brand’s battle cry, an enthusiastic, stimulating, positive, optimistic slogan and a true declaration of intent,” Desigual says. “The slogan reflects Desigual’s way of thinking that is inevitably influenced by the Mediterranean, the sun, light, passion and a lust for life. A philosophy of life that reflects a way of dressing: fun, fresh, original and always instilled with a happy, playful and creative attitude. Be confident, don’t be afraid to be yourself.”

Today’s music video is by one of the world’s best jazz-funk alto sax players, Candy Dulfer, who lives in Amsterdam. She’s playing live here at the Schiphol airport:The first song, Lily Was Here, was written by Dave Stewart, formerly of the Eurythmics. He and Candy recorded the instrumental for the soundtrack of the Dutch film De Kassière. She used to play with Prince, who once said: “”When I want good sax, I call Candy.”
