Muse

It has been a long while... I loved the pictures from the Nov edition of the ASOS magazine, Isabel Lucas has the most amazing eyebrows! And I might add well chosen to reflect the laid back hippie vibe of this Autumn

Another Late Night

London

It has been far too long since I blogged or picked up a pencil. Writing my first book has been more than a distraction, but finally it is in the hands of friends and proof readers. Time to rediscover my old loves ....

The Face that Fits

Models

Stunning in a way I've been waiting for: a beautiful ad with a beautiful girl. It's hard not to love a face like this; Ming is without question a face to watch; Givenchy, a label back on form?

Brave New Hippie

New York

June 9th and Nicolas Ghesquiere showed his 2011 Resort collection in New York. Taking his incomparable take on graphic print and infusing it into the 70's stable, the maxi and then with an equally innovative hand, casting a new light on that most iconic of image, that of the Pan Am girl. This collection was anything but dull, safe... or any number of words I could use to disparage many Resort collections this season. Love it...

I'm a huge fan of Erin Fetherston and her pretty pretty dresses. This season she showed a 'Nico' inspired collection with pants and play suits, however it was the re-working of the blazer of (which I've now way too many) that really caught my attention.

Grey?

London

Grey, really? I keep hearing that it's the thing to do, let it all grow out. But really it's going to make you look old isn't it. I know that the hyper blond trend was all over the S/S shows and I love a blond myself but grey, I'm passing. This shoot for Dazed was super gorgeous, 1940's stockings, now that's something i'll consider.
