UNIF

As you know I am a massive fan of all things UNIF. My spiked back, leopard print biker being at the top of that list! Check out their new Spring 12 Campaign, the lighting, outfits, models are just perfection.





I "need" all of the above.

The Runaways

A bit of Metal made me wish (once again) I was in an all girl Rock Band! Joan Jett and Cherie Curry blow the sh*t off this motha!!!
The Runaways movie staring Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stuart is one of my hands down faves. Why didn't I get the singing/musical gene Lu???

HELLS YEAH!!!

A Bit of Metal

So much for my full white outfit, last night I went to a proper metal gig and was fully decked out in black. I'm not a massive metal fan, so I needed some style inspiration...

I was going to post a outfit pic... but suddenly got all shy.

BTW -the concert was ACE... my ears are still bleeding.

Other Things That Move

Finding that Hedi Slimane film got me inspired. You know me, I adore a good fashion editorial but I'm loving that mini fashion films are on the increase. Here are two amazeballs ones by Steven Meisel. Is there anything image related he can't do???

Prada S/S2012

Lanvin S/S2012


AND if you keep an eye out, little videos pop up on the Vogue Italia's website every now and then to accompany the editorials he is shooting. This one is gold.

'The A Train' from Vogue Italia Nov 2011

 

I want to make one!

Slimane movement

D, loving all things photographic Hedi Slimane's website has been bookmarked in my favs for as long as I can remember. You are sooooo right, his images are just so beautifully dark, personal and broody - they usually say far more about a subject than any written interview ever could.

I came across this video he made for The Corner. I just love how his images translate into movement.


Can't wait to see what he does at Yves Saint Laurent.

Frances Bean Cobain for Hedi Slimane

So, to totally counteract your Whiteness.... check out this shoot by Hedi Slimane.
Firstly, when the hell did Frances Bean Cobain get so damn hot?? She is beautiful.
Secondly.... wow! The darkness of this shoot makes me happy....and really makes me want to get more tattoo's.







No words! It's BRILLIANT!

White Heat

If you have known me for any period of time (D, you can back me on this) you know I wear a LOT of black. Have done so for as long as I can remember. I can recall having arguments with mum back in primary school about wanting more black clothes... it was just something I was always attracted to and I have spent years wearing nothing else.

Ever since relocating to the London 6 years ago, I have become increasingly obsessed with colour. I just adore every single one and want to surround myself with them all. So much so that I will happily go out in neon brights without thinking twice but there is one still one thing I still have not done and that is... wear a full white outfit!

Eeeeeek, just the thought kinda scares me but this summer it will be my wardrobe challenge. The only trouble is how am I going to play it?

 Soft, flowing and girlie....

 Valentino, Chloe, Emilio Pucci, Stella McCartney, Chanel

Sporty, minimal and sharp...

I will have to give this some serious thought as this is the final frontier.

Chola Style'e

Here is a bit of Westside for ya - with the Cholas of East LA. The look originated in the LA gang culture and today the uniform is typically khakis and a white vest (hot.)... BUT... back in the day these ladies rocked a serious hair-do teased to the max (dubbed the 'Scare-do') dark lipstick and pencil thin eyebrows. This is a total 'don't mess with me' attitude... in true 80's LA fashion.
