Interpol’s third album”Our Love To Admire” is a tough one to break, it took a good 10 listens to start humming along, but now, now that I’m on the 30th or 40th listen… song 4, “The Heinrich Maneuver”, with the lyrics “Today My Heart Swings” is an ABSOLUTE gem!

Did I mention the quality dress sense?

I love Eduardo Lucero

I simply love this man’s work. LOOK AT THAT BELT!

He’s one of the few designers who I WANT to work with for trade so I can have his clothes…..but of course he’s one of the few designers who’ll actually pay with money. oh well.. c’est la vie!

keep your eyes on this man.

… it would take an individual with some guts to present himself dressed as follows.

Thom Browne, very brave…

But, I would respect the decision, greatly.

I want to treat myself to a new bag for my birthday…one for everyday wear.  I’ve narrowed my selection down to three, which would you choose?

Lanvinlanvin.jpgI like the simple design on this one — business appropriate yet noticeable.

Fendifendi.jpgPretty, slightly pimpish but oh so pretty.

Ferragamo ferragamo.jpgA little bulky, but it’s appeal is no one can get in your way when your wielding this big boy.

But they felt they had to drop Gemma Ward into the middle of it… perhaps to give it a Western feel… bizarre…

I come from a small town in an Eastern country, far, far away however never in my life had I had any problems with buying Vichy products over there. It’s only when I came to London (and mind you it’s not London in Canada) that I spent long hours wandering around in search for a bloody face cream. Tired, cold and defeated I ordered it on Amazon.

It’s tough to be a woman in London.

With Thanksgiving fast approaching, my mind is completely focused on slightly drunken dysfunctional family feasts, going from house to house, in-laws to cousins, spreading good cheer as family secrets come to light over turkey carcasses. Take a look at what I won’t be drinking…..

Johnnie Walker Blue Label 1805 Edition. At US$27,000 a bottle, it is a pretty safe bet that it will not show up anywhere between the bottles of Southern Comfort and pickle jars that will grace my table. With it’s smooth, smokey finish, I’m sure it will be missed.

For those who celebrate…Happy Thanksgiving. For those who don’t, enjoy your Thursday.

Announced just yesterday, H&M’s designers are creating a collection with Marimekko’s patterns from the 1950s, 60s and 70s for the summer 2008 H&M collection. The collection of some 50 products will be sold in Hennes stores from April.

Marimekko Hook-up With H&M

The blah blah blah goes: “Our design team has long admired Marimekko’s vivid patterns and colours. When our designers came up with the idea of creating a collection with Marimekko patterns, it felt very natural and timely. The summer collection 2008 will be joyfully fresh like a vitamin injection,” states H&M’s head of design Margareta van den Bosch. *PUKE*

They’d better sort our some decent publicity imagery - look at the thing I had to publish!

I’m writing this (in my trusty leather bound notebook) from the floor in a quiet corner I found backstage at the debut show for Whitley Kros. It amazes me that people think we models live a glamorous life. Not enough seats backstage, food for 20 people to feed 50, our heads of hair being back combed to painful, PAINFUL lengths, being interviewed for tv about things you’ve never even heard of….so what ya gonna do? LIE! and so many camera’s shoved in your face while hair and make-up is in progress that you can’t relax/pick your nose/sneeze or grimace with the pain!

All that said though as I stood in nothing but my nude thong surrounded by dressers, half a dozen gay men and wondering why I have no shoes to wear, I spotted my outfits and thought “hrmmm ok I wouldn’t buy them but this could work.”

I’ll be honest Whitley Kros is not my personal style, too much spandex, too many bright colours, think “Working Girl”(1980’s) but their clothes are fun and cute with some pieces I would love to grunge out.

Whitley Kros Finale

Who knows maybe this label will really take off, it sure was fun to be in their first show. I’m curious to see where they’ll take us next season. Lord knows Marissa Ribisi (sister of Giovanni Ribisi) and Sophia Banks put together a great show, the next one can only be better again. And of course with Beck being Marissa’s “other half” the music was GREAT!

Flight 001 are selling this beauty from Robert Le Heros for 120 bucks. Am I the only one to like this? I sense it’s a pretty personal preference, this one.
