Personal




Two more from my favourite to end this month's updates.

Free

Slept in Beds, 2003










I fall in love with a lot of girls.
Like cancer kills, I fall in love: totally arbitrary, though it helps if they smoke.
I could populate a large party with all the girls I've fallen in love with.
It would be a fun party but I wouldn't want to be there.


Go here and here.

Fernanimals








I am obsessed with these adorable little stuffed animals, and there are tons more pictures, information and a blog here.

Sunny





The weather in London is so beautiful today. I had lunch with my cousins and aunts and wandered around some boutiques in Islington. I am really looking forward to a  summer of sunbathing on a yoga mat on my roof terrace, thanks global warming.

Tweed








If I ever have to cave in and get a regular office job, I will have to buy a totally new wardrobe. I don't even have a conservative interview outfit at the moment. But I have decided that instead of going sexy secretary, or getting cheap, boring polyester seperates, I will go totally geeky and buy tweed. These outfits will be my inspiration. (All from the Sartorialist).

Dujour


This image is taken from a vibrant Frida Kahlo inspired shoot in Dujour Magazine, which I found here.

31 rue Cambon


















I wanted to share how Lina Schneyius (my new favourite photog) has turned something as shiny, polished and glamorous as Coco Chanel's infamous Parisian flat into a splintered, bleak mausoleum.

Want it




Sooooo cuuuuute! Wish I knew where they were from...

Juergen Teller


















A few weeks ago, when I was doing an essential exploration of the new London Marc by Marc Jacobs store, I came across the new coffee table sized book of all the ad campaigns Juergen Teller has shot for Marc over the years. I have been a huge fan of both men for quite a long time, but I didn't realize the sheer breadth of celebrities they had collaborated with. Everyone awesome that I can think of, whatever age, has been in a Marc campaign. So if any boyfriend type person is reading this to get 5 year anniversary type clues, this would be a good place to pause and take note.

Devon Aoki

Devon Aoki looks like a beautiful cat in this retro shoot for Vogue Nippon. She is one of my favourite alien looking models, and like her character in Sin City, I do believe that she is definitely a little crazy.

Muse



















This shoot from the Spring Summer issue of Muse Magazine is spooky and creepy but it reminds me of Chadwick Tyler, whom I adore. Photography by Wendy Bevan.
