Rebel Youth

Wish somebody'd buy me this book of photos by the late great Karlheinz Weinberger...



It looks insanely good - so much clothespiration/hairspo/eye candy.








Butterfield 8

I'm obsessed with the powdery blues, golds and peachy pinks throughout this film. It's how I wish my flat (and my life) could be.







Pradarama

Video campaign for Prada's SS11 collection


So the dancing and music is incredibly annoying (I think) but the sunglasses, stripper shoes, stripes, and furry snake stoles are sssssssssssublime.

Because the Lady Loves... Pam Hogg

Just a few pix to show off the wild and wonderful personal style of Ms Hogg.....


Matchy-matchy with Dame Viv.

In black at Alexander McQueen's Memorial.

At the NME Awards with Bobby Gillespie.

In a gorgeous powder blue coat at the Whitechapel Gallery.

In one of the most fabulous fur coats... one of her own, I think (?)

I'm sure I've posted this picture before, but it's a favourite.

Dreaming of Daphne

I just posted about Daphne Guinness' latest charitable endeavour over on my other blog, and while continuing my stalking session I came across this beautiful photo set by Bryan Adams (yes, that one) for Zoo magazine (not that one). Among them are some of my favourite images of the great lady. In images that recall those by Man Ray and the silvery sparkly portraits of Cecil Beaton, Adams succeeds in capturing Guinness as a surrealist heroine (in one image she is seen drinking out of a Meret Oppenheim-style fur teacup) of both the past and the future.

Pretty Pretty

Earlier this month, I styled a Barbarella-inspired photoshoot for the Glasgow Guardian. The model was the brilliant Christin Haussman and the photographer was Rosalind Blake. The location was the retro-futuristic Kibble Palace at Glasgow's Botanic Gardens. Here are a couple of my behind-the-scenes shots, watch out for the final edits in the next issue of the Glasgow Guardian (out now).








Bored, so...

Here's what I'm planning to purchase from New Look's A/W selection, if I can find them in the maze of the Buchanan St store. Winter = fur, leather and velvet. Bring it on.





Friday Night at the Movies

Tonight's viewing, courtesy of Love Film, will be the 1945 classic Mildred Pierce.



If anyone wants to send me one of these Mildred Pierce dolls, it's fine with me.


Call me a dum-dum, but I had NO idea that HBO filmed a new miniseries of Mildred Pierce, starring Kate Winslet. I've no idea when or where it will be shown, but the whole trend of re-doing classic films fills me with dread. I heard that there's going to be a remake of Gone With The Wind too - sorry, but without Gable and Leigh there is no Gone With The Wind. What next? A remake of Rebel Without A Cause starring R-Pattz? Zac Efron and Miley Cyrus starring in The Big Sleep? Megan Fox and Shia LeBoeuf in It Happened One Night? Say it ain't so...
