Daisy Chain

All of a sudden I really like daisies. Don't know why? Maybe it's the subliminal brainwashing of my desktop backgroup (a collage from Russh magazine showing many a daisy amongst the 60's imagery). Or maybe it's since I impulse bought my daisy necklace.

Anyway, I think I like Peaches Geldof's daisy chain tattoo. Am I losing my mind? I wouldn't ever want a tattoo that big but a small daisy chain could be cute.

Maybe it's a bit early to get my new love of daisies inked onto my body. A Dior ring could be less permanent and painful!

She's Like A Rainbow

Georgia May Jagger. Look at those lips! Not hard to guess who her father is. 

She's only 16 but is already starting to pop up in magazines. Another Rock Star model spawn. 

I think she's prettier than her mother and sister, Lizzie, but apparently she is relatively short.

I hope she doesn't become famous for doing nothing and then turn into an annoyingly overexposed "It Girl." But I can completely see that happening!

Textured Wedge

I was browsing around on Net-A-Porter the other day, trying to decide what I would buy if K-Rudd accidentally added an extra zero to my economic stimulus payment. Finally, I decided on these Fendi boots.

I've been looking for suede wedge heels for awhile, and I'm a bit of a sucker for shoes made of multiple materials. These ones have suede, mesh and patent. Killer.

Simply Anna




As you may know by now, I absolutely adore Anna Karina and Marianne Faithfull. So I became particularly excited when I found that they both starred in a 1967 French TV movie called 'Anna'.

I dare you to watch the trailer and not crack a smile. 'Anna' is colourful, crazy and a musical with bizarre nouvelle vague influences and at least a touch of insanity. All in all a vintage gem. 

If you are like me, and have an interest in French cinema and the 60's, it is probably worth checking out!

Did I mention that the film was scored by Serge Gainsbourg and Marianne sings? Too good. 

A Meshy Mystery

I hadn't checked the Cobrasnake in awhile and was pleasantly surprised to see some pretty good photos that he took at an unnamed fashion show.

I'm loving the Balmain and Rodarte inspired pieces and the collection of boots! I just wish I knew what label the show was for. Mark Hunter and his ridiculous titles. If anyone does know please tell me!

Damn, that grey mesh and velvet dress with pointy shoulders is amazing.

Also, a while ago I posted some photos of a floral and mesh dress that I thought must have been vintage, but a couple of girls at this anonymous fashion show appeared to be wearing mesh dresses in the same cut so I guess that these dresses are currently on sale. But where, and by whom? Hmmmm. 

So many mysteries!

UPDATE: After a bit more trolling on the internets I've discovered that the show was Brian Lichtenberg's F/W09 collection, and that the mesh dresses are versions of his Freakum Dress. I want one badly!
