Marc Jacobs: Fall 2009 Make up


Browsing through the Marc Jacobs Fall 2009 collection i was really taken with the striking make up, and bold use of colour to complement the designs

All Saints: Playsuit

Most of the winter sales have dried up now, which marks the start of 'mid season sale' no doubt, but allsaints are still dragging out theirs, anything in limted sizes have been reduced massively so if you have strange feet i recomend looking at the shoes.
Having quite normal feet i browsed the underwear, where i found this play suit which i quite like and would wear out with some heels and a belt or messy hair and dirty old cons.



very tempted. . . maybe wait till pay day, if they have any left.

Marc Jacobs is hot. (the one in the middle not the douche bag in leather)
Here he is at 1909 Victorinox menswear collection.

Monday Pick Me Up

I've been dying to get my hands on a pair of these for ages, before Christmas in fact,
but couldn't justify the £80 so I was very chuffed when I popped into my local Topshop,
Hmm I could get away with calling topshop my local as I visit it more frequently than I do the pub, I digress! and found them marked down to £45

New shoes!
Very easy to walk in because of the huge platform.
Set to be come my new favorites, esp considering my current favorite ankle boots need re-heeling and I'm a bit lazy when it comes to all of that.

Flawless!


I was considering getting some white patent dm's for the summer but now I've seen these, available at Oki ni, just not in my size :(

Nike Dunk Premium


They remind me of lego for your feet

Well I'm gutted the shoes I posted yesterday have now sold out on TS online.
But they have added new stuff, nothing great shoe wise.

This jacket, which reminds me of the belted blazer with dynasty shoulder pads one Gaga wears in the just dance video....





..... and these extreme hareem pants, the name just made me smile, though I am tempted.
I think they would look better in a silk but if I wanted that I would be better off going to a sari shop and buying a suit, esp at £50.

New TS Shoes

Just checking Topshop's new stock and instantly regretting it.

They have some beautiful new shoes in which i guarantee will sell out over the next week *sigh*
Feast your eyes on these beauties.

The powder purple of the court reminds me of sweets and dolly mix

The ankle boots are awesome. The lick of gold under the point of the toe reminds me of the McQueen boots I would die for and I'm torn between the black or the blue.
The black being boring, in comparison to the blue, but wearable with everything in my wardrobe, and the blue being eye catching, bowie ziggy stardust esq and perfect for the summer I long for with acid wash jeans and a baggy t shirt . . . .

The zip detail sandal? As if you didn't know, Emma cook for Topshop, and yes already sold out.

I love gossip girl, absolutely LOVE it, esp Ed Westwick's character Chuck Bass.
The arrogance in his voice, stance, clothing everything!
So I'm feeding my little green eyed monster when looking at this photo shoot from Harper's Bazaar, featuring him, stunner Helena Christensen and some gorgeous clothing.

Lady Gaga



I've just read on catwalkqueen that Lady Gaga wants to launch a range of clothing. Whilst most *celeb* collaborations would bore me, Lily Allen for New Look anyone? Yawn. If this does happen I'll be excited to see what she comes up with, most of her clothing is custom made for her by a team of designers, and her style causes a stir because it's different, interesting to look at, memorable and more importantly fun!

Miss Lowe for DKNY

I’m a big fan of Scott Schuman, The Sartorialist is one of my everyday clicks.
His pictures are always beautiful and inspiring, especially the men’s street style.

Photobucket


He has shot the spring summer DKNY Jeans campaign
which features a number of well known faces, including Daisy Lowe.
Being a fan of both Lowe and Schuman I thought I would love this image more,
but for some reason I find it a little dissapointing.
Maybe it’s the styling, the DKNY fuzzy frame, or something about Lowe’s stance which isn’t quite right,
I just can’t put my finger on it.

Style Icon: Audrey Hepburn

After mentioning Audrey Hepburn in my previous post I thought it only fitting to have a picture post.

Scarlett Jo does Marilyn Monroe



I’m not the biggest Monroe fan (more of a Hepburn fan), but I do love the inspiration for D&Gs make up line adverts.
Yes it has been churned out a lot but what better way to promote make up, based upon such an iconic look which oozes femininity and sex appeal



New Topshop Unique In

The cardi is probably my favorite piece
