how very.

Dear Diary: Heather told me she teaches people "real life." She said, real life sucks losers dry. You want to fuck with the eagles, you have to learn to fly. I said, so, you teach people how to spread their wings and fly? She said, yes. I said, you're beautiful.


Started collecting screen shots and considering making another blog purely film based...anyway, just a few of many shots of one of my favourite films, Heathers.

gaga for vanity fair

After a day in Birmingham, I stopped at a magazine shop while I was waiting for the train back home where Vanity Fair's September issue caught my eye, so I had a quick gand and figured I'd cover it for my next blog.
Everyone has an opinion on Lady Gaga, good or bad, I myself find her intriguing, there isn't many people/artists out there who are as different as her or who states her purpose is to encourage others to be themselves no matter how strange/outrageous they want to be.
Anyways, this photo shoot is awesome, I absolutely love her hair colour and her body is killer no doubt, also a number of amazing custom made couture has been used to style the lady herself including a transparent plastic Armani Privé dress which actually smokes up...incredible...have a look at the video below to check out Nick Knight's fashion film which covered the shoot.

daisy lowe

Pictures put up in honor of Miss Daisy Lowe...






One of the most beautiful girls I've ever seen, with awesome style and a figure I want as my own. Living the life as a fashion model and socialite, sitting front row at shows or behind the scenes and on the catwalk. Previously modelled for Thomas Burberry, Marc Jacobs, Louis Vuitton and Vivienne Westwood, probably most known for her appearances on Dr. Martens' campaign ads and being a spokes model for Agent Provocateur. She has also modelled her mum's clothing line for Peacocks, not bad ey?

jean paul gaultier fall couture 2010

Another designer I always look forward to when a new season approaches...
The moment I set eyes on the collection I saw a classic 1940's vamp style coming through, I could imagine a modern day Joan Crawford wearing most of this.
Use of new patterns, cuts and leather have kept the collection present and contemporary not to mention the high styled hair and printed tights.
Also an appearance from Dita Von Teese can be seen modelling Gaultier's garments who I personally think is a perfect candidate for showing his work.




And of course I couldn't miss out these gorgeous shoes I spotted from the show...someone fancy giving me some sort of shoe allowance each month, please?

one person's opinion.

"Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn;t your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should just be friends' turns into a glass splinter working it's way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love."
- Neil Gaiman.

I feel being in this generation, the only feeling expressed being our age should be freedom, to do what we want and not give a shit. Change happens, but how can we expect to grow into the person we want to be if there is a person you have to consider before doing so?
No regrets. No need for these so-called "strings" that do not actually need to be attached. Too young to fall in love.

perfection.

Just need to get off my chest on how good a couple Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon Levitt would be, two of the few awesome actors of today.




campaign ads fall 2010

So I thought I'd post a blog on this seasons campaign ads that caught my eye, including PepeJeans as the wonderful Alexa Chung is their spokes model, it's Alexa...enough said.
Also Burberry who this season has become one of my favourites and of course Rosie Huntington-Whitely is a featured model and who is also going to be taking Megan Fox's place in the new Transformers movie, both gorgeous but honestly...Rosie > Megan...come on.
Yves Saint Laurent's creative director Stefano Pilati and his catholic and fabulously nun-(ified?) collection, Versace's fresh and edgy ads and Vivienne Westwood who can as usual be seen rocking her very own products...

Oh and I had to add in Viktor & Rolf's wedge shoe boots...love.
