Funeral Of Monaco's Prince Rainier III
Oliver Sachs, his wife and designer Karl Lagerfeld are seen inside the Cathedral at the funeral service of Monaco's Prince Rainier III at Monaco Cathedral on April 15, 2005 in Monte Carlo, Monaco. Prince Rainier III ruled the tiny Mediterranean principality for more than 55 years, becoming Europe's longest serving monarch.
For my big sister
Miike Snow- Silvia
Reach the city steps tonight
Following the power lines
Met a man barside
With eclipses for eyes
And you tell yourself you wont let them touch
Did I say too much did i say enough
I don't know Sylvia
I don't know Sylvia
Circle round the room still
Breaking my will
Know I can't have you here
Someone else on your skin
And it's all my fault for not getting off
And you made it start, can you make it stop?
You don't know Sylvia
You don't know Sylvia
Daamn
Daamn
Reach the city steps tonight
Following the power lines
And your skin is so white
Underneath the black night
And your voice calls out for the Coup de grace
When the lights go out... will there be a trace ?
I don't know Silvia
That I loved, Silvia
That I loved, Silvia
Introducing- Sir Michael Finch
Ok so I'm super excited for this post!
A little while back I added a boy 'Michael' on facebook.com (italics used), purely for his looks. I new nothing about him aside from his divine locks, intense style and of course his first and last name.
Was soon before we got to talking and hit it off like lint to cashmere. Turns out on top of his well preserved youthful looks he's, like, the most amazing designer. Michael was kind enough to lend us a few moments of his time, but I assured him I would pay him back in coupons and scratchie tickets.
Here's how it went down.
So, who are some of your fashion icons?
Galliano, Gaultier, Ford, Lacroix are all massive icons, the gays know style!
You had the amazing opportunity of working on Project Runway. Give us the low down on your experience.
PR was NUTS!!!... nuts in the best way, to be thrown into a complete lockdown situation to the extremity that you have to ask... and be escorted to the bathroom just so you don't sneak peak anything you shouldn't was crazy town!... the most torturous part was no music!... EVER!!!! But in all the madness it was THE most incredible time of my life, being surrounded by such amazingly talented individuals 24/7 is a dream come true.
Favorite fashion web site right now aside from mine?
My favourite fashion website changes all the time... at the moment its an incredible French label ( www.jitrois.fr ) who have developed a way to make leather stretch... SEXY STUFF!!! i want it ALL !!!
www.jitrois.fr
Favorite accessory of an outfit?
I believe an outfit is not complete without a belt... i belt everything... even if i'm in casual pants and gardening... iv got a belt on!... that... and a well defined brow... always HOT!
How do you see fashion today? And how do you see it changing in future?
Fashion today is so disposable... i find it totally depressing seeing all this 'stuff' hanging of plastic hangers...trendy mass market production... cheap chinese rags... that are then marked up 3000% to give it some deluded sense of 'quality'.... hmm.. maybe i'm being too honest here... but its true.
I say open your eyes to where your clothes are coming from, who is making them, understand that there is so much more to what you put on your back than what you pay for it... understanding and appreciating quality and craftsmanship is far more valuable than wearing the latest 'trend'.
Haute couture is a dying art because everyone wants it faster and cheaper and NOW.... how about you wait for it... get measured and pay for something made that fits you perfectly from sumptuous fabrication and quality craftsmanship.... that you will have forever! and will always be in style.... that to me is fashion.
What is the hardest part of fashion design?
The hardest part of fashion design is having to circum to the fact that the masses view it as simply shelter for their body... very few will embrace and appreciate the struggling artist until they are dead... probably far too a dramatic spin on it... but if more people stoped throwing money away on garbage 'hot cheap trends' in order to 'look good and feel hot for the moment' and embraced quality over quantity... i say the streets would be a much more stylish place.... aka Paris... people are aware of the quality of garments are are more than willing to pay for something that is so incredible and makes them feel amazing... simply for the fact that its totally fabulous!
Fur or Faux?
Faux feels and looks like shit.... Fur is always in fashion in my eye.... don't you just want to touch it =) i do, but let's not tell P.E.T.A. that!
To check out Michael collections I urge you to visit his website and see exactly what I'm talking about when I say 'Fabulous'.

Hey Court, grab me a soda!
Depp to play Dali
I feel my love for Johnny now grows by the day and not by the week.
And to top it off, after gazing at the Salvador Dali exhibition for three and a half hours at the National Gallery Of Victoria, I come home to find news that Johnny will be playing him in an epic movie based on the tails of Dali himself. Eep!

Text: Did I leave my Stella M dress in your car? Oh and will Jason be there tonight?
Good afternoon Fashionistas,
So I'm sure a lot of you are prepping for the weekend. You're most likely sitting out your last few hours of work, paying relatively no attention to the boss while you reply to texts, concoct a few possibilities of outfits and wonder who's going to be there tonight. Is she going? Is he going?
Anyhoo before you start all this madness and mayhem, let me wish you all a wonderfully exuberant weekend.
Relish in your youth cause you are fabulous and everyone wants to be you ;)
Heart you
Dirty Filthy Fashion
PS Don't forget to take lots of shots of your outfits and submit them!
Anna Wintour- 'The September Issue'
Anna Wintour has played the role of editor in chief for Vogue magazine since 1988. After seeing the documented movie "The September Issue" I came to realize the rumors are in fact true. Anna, a women who's only weakness in life is the well being of her beloved children Katherine and Charlie Wintour. Everything else, is business. The now 59 year old barely smiles once throughout the film. Her jet setting and over booked schedule forces her to come off rude, to the point and bitterly pouty. Anna's demeanor treads toes and cross's boundaries, but by god it gets things done.
