These Shoes In My Size Please


There are 3 things that make these Alexander McQueen pumps obscenely fabulous:

1. The heart shaped peep toe (SO so sweet)
2. The dusting of multi coloured Swarovski crystals (Love me the sparkle)
3. Their name, 'Disco Heart Pump' 

These shoes, my feet and a lit up dance floor. Disco Heaven.

How Did I Miss These...

Wow, wow, wow. I'm not sure how I missed these two photos from Cannes but they are a standout. Ms Cotillard, welcome back. It is so nice to see you looking lovely. And Helen, well what can one say.  Amazing.

OK Edie, You've Got Me On This One...




...So Edie mentioned today that Carine Roitfeld, editor of French Vogue, is her new style fascination. At first I couldn't understand this at all, and I sadly admit to teasing her just a little about this startling claim. Well after reading this fabulous article in The Telegraph, I claim defeat and give Edie a heartfelt apology. I get it now.  I think I'm beginning to see the amazingness that is Carine Roitfeld.

There is something so alluring and attractive about someone who is sure of themselves.
This is a picture of a woman who radiates beauty from the inside out.

I Have Been Pondering....

(Mixed media artwork by Lacey Terrell via Here Comes The Sun)

... a lot about life plans this week after a much needed chat with a friend. Do you really need a plan? Can you just float through life without a clear direction? And anyway how big do these plans have to be?
I'n not sure where these thoughts are going to take me but I do hope it's somewhere exciting.

This is Why City Weddings Rock...

...what's not to love about getting married on a city roof top? I love the contrast between the prettiness and beauty of the bride and party guests and the harsh and grey of the urban background.

This Bag, My Closet

Every now and then I stumble across a bag that makes me pine for a different life. One in which I can afford every thing my heart desires. A life full of beautiful things. Sometimes I love something so much, that for just a few seconds I think it might even make me genuinely happy.

This sequinned Miu Miu bag is one of them.

Pure Fabulousness...

AC, This One's For You...

Picture Perfect Young Lady

These photos of Taylor Swift are absolutely divine. A more mature and grown up look from the usual bright and sunny Teen Vogue type of photo, I can't help but admire what a wholesome, classy young lady she is.

In a world full of pole dancing Miley's and morally bankrupt Lindsey's, it's so refreshing to see a 20 year old girl worthy of the role model status bestowed upon her.

A Matter Of Opinion

(Image via Zimbio)

Leigh Lezark: a strikingly beautiful New York model and DJ. Adored by the likes of Karl Lagerfeld and considered to be one of Chanel's 'It Girls'. With her long, sleek black bob and green eyes she has an edgy style all her own. 

Me: LOVES her. 
Lucia: Not so much
Me: Astounded that someone doesn't find her as stunning as I do. 
Lucia: Amused that I just can't seem to understand why.

This difference in opinion has me baffled....in a good way.

Lucia, you told me to build a bridge - I'm done now.

I Admit I Am A Little Taken By....



....Diane Kruger. She exsudes such a quiet confidence and charm that is totally mesmerishing.  Then to top it all off I read that she is her own stylist, makeup artist, and hair-stylist. Wow. Impressive stuff.

Sketch Me A Fashion Fairytale

Georgio Armani - Lady Gaga, American Idol 2010

There's something about a designers illustrations, that always makes the clothes look so amazing....to me, they have all the makings of a fashion fairytale  of the most glamorous kind.
In my imagination, I have framed illustrations from Galliano, Lagerfeld, Armani, Gaultier, Valentino and de la Renta decorating my house, walk in robe and dressing room. 
That to me, is art.
