Excessive? I think not.

Okay, maybe I get why people would think buying eight of the same magazine just with different covers is slightly over the top, but hey I work hard to earn my money so I should be able to decide on what to buy with it rigghhtt? and trust me it is so worth it!


Amber Valletta 


Daria Werbowy


Kristen McMenamy


Kate Moss

Natalia Vidianova

I love LOVE as most of you already know, it is a very new magazine but totally amazing. 
This issue primarily is talking about body image, and the idea of the perfect body and those who are considered to have the 'perfect' body - models - about what they think of their own bodies. I know this topic is probably a bit tired, but somehow Love have managed to make it new; they have given a new look into it, actually talking to the models asking them what they think about there own bodies, which for someone who is constantly photogrpahed would be difficult to answer, they chose eight seriously successful models, who all have very different bodies but still considered equaly beautiful. I thought also what was great was the photogrpahy, they really took pictures at awkward angles and maybe not the most flattering, but it really worked to highlight the idea of body image, and even those who are meant to be 'perfect' in their own minds may not be.

No women no kids, that's the rule.


This is such an amazing film it was mindblowingly beautiful and tragic and gritty and heartrenching. Such talent went into this film, it is almost impossible to think that Natalie Portman was just 13 when she took on this role, she was flawless, it would be such a tough role to play for an adult and yet she grasped totally what the role demanded of her. I ALSO WOULD LIKE HER WARDROBE PLEASE!!!!!
It was set in NY and some of the camera shots they gave you brought me to tears literally.
Honeslty I havn't really been able to put across how much I loved it, you just have to watch it to get what I mean, but it has really affected me in a way only a number of films do. 
After watching the film again another three times, I think one of the things that really makes this film wonderful is the total lack of emotion both chracters have until they find eachother and then the slightly perverse relationship they form with one another as the film goes on, the whole film was styled beautifully and it really flowed it progressed at such a perfect pace that it almost felt real but because of the 'shocking' story line the whole experience was sereal all of it really clicked together and I was shocked when I found out the uncut version was only released years after the 'original' came out. It just shows how people have become a lot more open minded and prepared ot sit and listen before making complete judgments.   











And stop saying "okay" all the time. Okay? 
Okay. 
 Good.

I'm so original and cool because I like Japanese street style and like yeaahhh


Black - I am so over obsessive with black, there were about double this amount but I had to cut it down. 




Orange - You all know my love of Orange



Green - Peices remind me of Proenza Schouler 2010 and Balenciaga 2006



Blue - And no comments needed I KNOW the blue one is pretty pathetic. But I couldn't leave them out, okay I just couldn't!!!!


So I thought to I would make colour coded, snowflakestarry kind of things, to make it more original. 

Looking at streetstyle - Not just Japanese - you really get how a whole collection can come from spending a day on the street and really people watching. Taking in all the colours, textures everything, it just shows there is a world of insparation out there. 

Now I must go and read my brand new issue 3 of LOVE thanks to Kara Micheal Brown, whom I love very much <3

Lina Scheynius for Numero Korea




















To be honest these pictures speak for themselves, the Photogropher is Lina Scheynius, styled my Felipe Mendes with Hanne Gaby. I am completely wonder struck. They are amazing in every way, wherever they were taken the place is mesmarising, the styling is perfect, it is almost as if Hanne has been styled to get lost within the house and all it's nicks and nacks. I love it. I have also been a fan Lina Scheynius for a while now, and her work just gets better and better, I love her stuff she does for fashion magazines but I also love her more personal stuff, her diarys. They are so simple but so beautiful.
