need-more-MONEY...



i had to leave a couple of things behind yesterday, much to my heartache. i didn't think both these books were released til later in june, so you could imagine my disappointment to see them out already and not be able to take them home in my hot little hands...

road-trip...

i spent a very lovely sunday, leisurely motoring about town, cruising chapel street and the fashion capital, chad-what-for-it-stone... whilst on my ventures, i was able to pick up the latest issue of vman, featuring 'true bloods' alexander skarsgard on it's cover...
...as well as the new issue of '10' and much to my luck, the gods must have been smiling upon me, i was able to get tom ford's cover... super excited

...my luck also continued when i saw the fresh issue of 'i-d' on the stands at borders, i was able to get miranda's cover, she looks amazing...


+ i got my 501's



how excitment...

again...



@ the london premiere of satc2, sjp *shut it down, wearing a ^vintage alexander mcqueen gown and an amazing philip tracey hat... in loving memory of lee, sjp wore a black band around her forearm. a fantastic homage to a fashion visionary...

*sorry rachel zoe, but your catch-phrase isn't trademarked...
^by vintage, i mean from mcqueens spring 2008 collection, which is 6 seasons old now...

interesting + exciting...

sjp, break my heart...

if you have been following my blog, you may remember @ the end of couture week, i put out a plee for someone to where this valentino gown to the oscars, no-one did... fast-forward to last night @ the new york premiere of 'satc2' and much to my excitment sjp opted to wear it. i think she looks amazing, the neon yellow against her tan and newly lightened hair looks brilliant... shame about the shoes though, too heavy

sigh...

i know, i'm hopeless... but when this givenchy necklace is dropped, i kind of feel the need to purchase it, it's kind of amazing, but i imagine it will be quite pricey, and probably only made in a limited number, so it might not even make it here... wishin' and a hopin'

*sorry lanvin, i'm already planning your replacement, well not replacement, let's call it you 'little brother'

bang indeed marc...

a buff and tanned marc jacobs has chosen to be the face of his first mens fragrance in 10 years, 'bang.' surely destined to become an iconic image...

kylie, fashion de force...

new album, same sexy, fashion-forward kylie, first seen in jean-paul gaultier on the cover of her new album 'aphrodite,' then in preen for the cover of soon-to-be-released single 'all my lovers' and now in yet another tantilizing promo image, wearing givenchy...

can-cannes

this look makes my heart sing... dree hemingway in valentino spring 2010 couture. this collection came under much criticism as many argued that it didn't represent what is known as the 'valentino' look, that it veered too young and didn't cater to the typical valentino customer. this criticism, to me, is a shame, even though we weren't shown all of the houses dna in the clothes, we were shown thoroughly modern, beautifully hand-crafted clothes... and seeing dree on the 'red' carpet looking as amazing as she does, should make some of the negative press regarding this collection, fade away

liya is hands-down, stunning, in balenciaga fall 2009, goes to show that keeping things simple, doesn't mean being a wall-flower...

...these are a few of my favourite things





glee's matthew morrison aka mr.schu + raquel zimmermann + vogue = very happy chris...

the uber-attractive duo have teamed up for a steamy editorial for an up-coming issue of american vogue... can't wait to get the issue in my hot little hands.

*2 consecutive posts referencing 'glee,' this may become a mini-trend here, expect a post when the stars of glee cover lady gaga's 'bad romance' in a up-coming episode, going to be MAJOR!

HOT!

woopee!!


today, after a 2 week hiatus, i went to melbourne, to pick-up my lanvin necklace, isn't she lovely. the blue perspex is much more vivid in person, these pictures, unfortunately, don't do it justice. i can't wait to put it to work... marais has just recieved a new shipment of spring 2010 stock, from givenchy, balenciaga, viktor & rolf, lanvin, so many amazing things and just not enough dough in the bank...
i also picked-up my pre-ordered copy of 'facehunter' from the ngv. where, much to my delight, william was working, so i spent a leisurely half-an-hour catching up on some goss, sipping delicious hot-chocolate and breaking the spine of my new read...


over the coming weeks, i have a lot of reading material to sponge... i bought the latest issues of women's wear daily, l'officiel hommes + arena homme +... a great day for fashion and me...

it's amazing how quickly campaign season seems to come around. today 'style.com/' previewed givenchy's fall 2010 ad campaign, with both the womens and mens collections being so strong this season, it was going to interesting to see the clothes in print. and in typical givenchy style, the campaign is amazing, the clothes, the styling, the cast simply brilliant. the campaign features, much to my excitment, aussie girl catherine mcneil, after a select but stellar return to the catwalks this season, it is great to see her back in print. looking forward to seeing more


l-r/ simon nessman, willy cartier, jonathan marquez, *lea t + paolo roldan

the campaign also features transgender model *lea t, who used to be givenchy's male fit model.
