Seven Things

Thursday, November 20, 2008
Photobucket

I've been tagged by electric feel!

The rules of the '7 things tag' are:
- You have to link to the person who tagged you
- You have to write 7 things about yourself (both weird and normal stuff)
- You have to tag 7 people and link to them in the end of the post and you have to leave a comment on their blog

1) I love absolutely anything coconut-related
2) I study at night because it's easier to concentrate when everyone else is asleep
3) I've worked at Zara for the past year and feel the need to shop every time I'm
there
4) I can't use chopsticks to save my life
5) I can read Arabic but can't understand it
6) I'll never get tired of visiting Paris and plan to go again in January
7) This is my favourite Youtube video..ever

Bloglovin': Like Google Reader but Better

Thursday, October 9, 2008


Blog addict? Well just in case you're not using Bloglovin' yet, here's a quote from Karolina at Fashion Squad explaining how it works:

"I’ve tried google reader too, but this is WAY better. Google reader doesn’t let you read blogs in their real form - you miss all the comments, the layout etc. Plus with bloglovin’ you get this bar at the bottom of your browser which allows you to read a new blog entry, and then you push next and read the next unread post, and the next, and the next etc. It’s like flipping through a magazine with new post’s from your favorite blogs. Try it, I promise you’ll like it more than google’s lame reader"

Chuck Basstard...

In need of a Chuck Bass fix?

Ed Westwick tell us what he thinks of his character's style in the newest issue of men's magazine Details:

'As Chuck, he oscillates between malice and unexpected decency, and rocks the freakiest wardrobe on TV: old-line yachtsman meets naughty schoolboy meets punk peacock.
"Chuck's just this vain kind of metrosexual Manhattan eccentric living in a flash world," Ed says. "He's young, and still figuring out the way he wants the world to see him. Those costumes are my right-hand man."

Self-portrait

kate moss self-portraitkate moss new haircut

A self-portrait by Kate Moss - drawn in lipstick - has been sold for £33,600. The supermodel made the work while she was in a relationship with Pete Doherty. It is not signed, but inscribed by Doherty with the words: "Who needs blood when you've got lipstick?"

Love her new haircut and the Balmain tartan trousers too.

Blazers and pastel colours haven't looked so good since Miami Vice. I wonder where the Topshop team, now headed by Karen Bonser, found their inspiration.

How do these images manage to be simultaneously hilarious and yet incredibly decadent?
Each one is inspired by a different Beatles song which makes for a perfect light-hearted editorial.
