Fireworks

As its soon going to be the turning of 2010 to 2011 
and as everyone knows one of the most exciting parts about New Years Eve is 
!!!!!!!Fireworks!!!!!!!

I Love Katy Perry's New song Firework
"You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July"

Also another fan of Fireworks is Erdem, 
having their pre fall 2011 collection inspired by the 
sparks and magic of fireworks

Tim Walker is a magnificent and genius fashion photographer and here are some stunning photos incorporating the enchantment of Fireworks.

Hope everyone has a Happy New Year 
very much looking forward to 2011****  

Olivia Thirlby in The Wackness

As it's the holidays, TV is inundated with films to warch.
So the other day I watched The Wackness

a winner of the Audience Award for Dramatic film at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival


A cast including
Ben Kingsley >>> Dr. Jeffrey Squires
Josh Peck >>> Luke Shapiro
Olivia Thirlby >>> Stephanie Spuires
Mary-Kate Olsen>>> Union

                                                                          Josh Peck

                                                      Olivia Thirlby and Mary-Kate Olsen


Here are some images from the Film

 (Above images from Google Images)


But I'd like to concentrate on Olivia Thirlby because not 
only did she win our hearts playing Leah in the film Juno
She plays the role of this cool-laid-back teenage girl, which is just so annoying because she is just 
too cool for school (sorry for the cliche).
Here are some Editorial images from Elle, Vogue and some photos from the May 2009 edition of Nylon Magazine and I think we should watch out for Olivia Thirlby because i'm sure she'll be coming up soon in a new cool cult film and she is a person to watch.

 Here's my interpretation of the 1990's Wackness outfit 

Walking in a Winter Wonderland

All the news titles recently have been
"Heavy Snow Severe Weather Warning issued for London"
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-12026924

"Snow-topped capital from the air: Amazing aerial photos of frozen London"
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1340102/Frozen-time-Londons-covering-snow-captured-camera-air.html?ito=feeds-newsxml

 (Above images sourced from Daily Mail)
recommendation>>>>> is to look chic in the London snow why not wear expert Swedish Knitwear designer 
Sandra Backlund
Her aesthetic of thick knits and Architectural Shapes are a piece of Art,
But here is her current collection fall/winter 2010

The Black and creams are a simple yet extremely effective. The combination of the the sheer and heavy black is just effortlessly cool.


Here's my winter wonderland look.

Lady Gaga You're became my Hero at the O2

My love for Lady Gaga has just increased

Lady GaGa at the O2
