It's how they wear it..




photos: my own
Just next to my hotel in Paris is a small clothes shop with an interesting idea for displaying their clothes.
Haven't actually been into the shop yet but surely if it's good enough for Marc, Alber and Sonia then they must have something good?! hmmmmm...

I think the illustrations are quite amusing though.

Highstreet Chloe






My new favourite highstreet shop recently has been Zara, and having looked at their lookbook this weekend I intend to be straight down there to pick up some very Chloe-esque pieces. They also have a pair of beige wedge boots that look suspiciously similar to the Chloe boots from AW09 for less than £80.
Couldn't get a picture from the website but Zara seems to be on every corner in Paris so hopefully will get a chance to have a proper look tomorrow.

What do you think of the new collection?

Another Natalie Cover



tfs

I am a fan of Natalie Portman but sometimes I think she just always looks the same in editorials/cover shoots. Regardless, she looks stunning on the front of this month's V magazine.
Personally I prefer the last shot to the first cover which is a bit hard looking.

Narration



Check out the band (Narration) above..my friend sent me a link and I"ve been listening to it on my laptop.
They have a new EP out which you can buy online for as much or little as you want! Get a handmade CD EP for as little as 20p!

Sounds good to me!
You can listen to the songs on their myspace page before you buy too.
Let me know what you think...
I'm obviously not a musician but it must be so hard to get your music out there when you don't have the big budgets of the main record companies behind you.

Thank you!


Thank you to Coco from Coco's Tea Party (I'm sure you all know it well) as I won £50 worth of Harvey Nichols vouchers from a recent competition on her blog!!
Now I just have to wait for it to arrive so I can go shopping!

Back to Paree

I am back in Paris and Jalouse is always the first magazine I pick up on arrival.
I know that it is available in the UK but it just annoys me that I have to pay twice the price so
usually just look up all the editorials online.

This shoot I have had on my computer for ages, and I finally came across it in the March 09 Fashion issue at a friend's apartment today.
Love, love, love

For anyone who has ever interned in New York..

And for anyone who wants to intern in New York, then look this place up. It was so much fun, mostly very random fun...with a very mixed bag of tenants ranging in ages and sanity.
