Liquid Metal



A dress made of Mercury?  Me thinks this could be the new lurex...it's like the slinky of dresses; retro, fluid and fun. 

Grunge


Grungey hat, no make-up and leather jacket....this girl is so understated and cool it almost hurts.

Oh Olins


Shot by Josh Olins, this photo just shouts 1999...only that CK t-shirt is a million times more cool when photographed by the infallible Mr Olins.  Don't no what it is about this pic but something really draws you in.

Love in an Asylum


I have no idea who this chica is, who shot her, or who it's for, but I just fell in love with so had to put it up.  Just love her slightly deranged look and the insane corset bra has some kind of resemblance to a straight jacket which adds to the whole love in an asylum vibe..

I'm cold...






...and want to be hot, so this editorial by Laurie Bartley for Vogue Nippon in 2008 makes me both wildly jealous and whimsical.  Karlie Kloss looks amazing but it's not so much the styling I love but more the slightly tacky, overcrowded beach location complete with inflatable rubber rings and plaid sun lounger cushions.

What's Up Doc





Maybe it stems from a mild obsession I have for Alice in Wonderland/ Watership Down, but I've fallen under the spell of Bunny Ears (preferably by Maison michel a la Olsen)- just the funnest, punchiest accessory around.  And I think it's the Hugh Hefner in me, but there's something about the ears that are, dare I say it, quite hot... It's probably a good job I'm not a fashion editor as I would be horribly annoying and feature them in absolutely every story right now.  Somehow I think I would get laughed out of the pub and all the way home if I donned some myself but it's always nice to pretend.  But if anyone else is keen, perhaps we should make a pact and really make an effort to make them the new comdey antlers this Christmas...
