Blackbook Magazine serves us a fierce-looking Christina Ricci in the May Design Issue. Looking at the pictures couldn’t decide myself if she’s intentionally similar to Posh or it’s just the haircut…

Either way, the Givenchy sandals from the first photo got my heart all melted! And that last photo’s purpose to exist completely eludes me!

For $88 you can get this outrageously bad taste jean in your wardrobe. And you can even dispose of it how you please – cut it in little tiny pieces just because it’s so ugly or by all means, wear it (at least please have the decency to wear it at night or with something covering it at least knee-length!).

Made by Sanna’s Brazil Fashion, the jean is called “bijini” and I find it completely appalling. I don’t understand how someone could actually launch something like that on the market. I can hardly put it under “fashion disaster“, it should have a “don’t wear unless you’re a Spice Girl in concert” tag allover!

From time to time I ask myself what could I do/wear to make my hairlife easier. For almost 4 years I’m bidding high on headbands.

Of course I had my fringe days but soon over because I had to take care of it, straighten it almost every day, keep it in one place. Exhausting. I confess, I love the “natural” way of things and my hair is wavy to curly, not an easy one to discipline. Then again, I had my pregnancies keeping my hair in a particular mood – half year gorgeously locked and the other half in a pitiful mood making me dream I’d shorten when first laying my eyes on the scissors. The moment I get myself flirting with boy-cuts, my hair begins an amazingly functional period. And .. I go back to headbands.

So now I’m actually wearing one to exhaustion – black and red print in little squares with a tiny bow on the side. I started matching my outfit to my headband instead of the opposite!

Are you fond of headbands? And if so, what kind? With/without bow? Slim? How do you make it through the day without having bad hair?

I guess when playing a part in a superhero movie (Ironman, set to appear this summer) gives you superpowers too (or at least makes you wish you had some).

Like for instance the power to be as beautiful as you’ve never been before, to proudly go and show new self to the world, all dressed up like the alien queen (Oscar de la Renta pre-fall 2008) on the Vogue Cover.

I have rarely seen a cover title so appropriate for the cover itself “When Good Work Goes BAD”. Or “Photoshop meet Gwyneth, Gwyneth, bye, darling!”. Oh, Anna W, you’re playing God, dear? Can’t just make people up all over again!

What do you think? Does this cover reminds you of real-life Gwyneth?

“I want to improve myself. I do not want to live for eating. Isn’t that what you expect from life when you are old - dinner parties and only sleeping?”

The 86 years old legend talks about life’s pleasures and recognizable style. He knows the world’s turning around wallets but he also says that one should begin the construction of its name with a personal style, not with a heavy banking account.

That, of course, doesn’t elude paying for originality and talent in any creative field and since his story was “my talent made the money, not the money made the name”, he’s selling all his empire for $1,2 billion.

It makes a world of difference from the full-of-wisdom-antisocial-Kaiser, doesn’t it? Stepping down to taste the pleasures of life and communicating with people. Why can’t the world spawn more Pierre Cardin?

A while back I let you know that there was going to be another Chloë Sevigny involvement in the fashion world – the UT Uniqlo Project.

Well, it’s released! And it looks at least outrageous (not that I would have expected less of her). La Sevigny poses like she’s struck by some gastro-trouble or touched by some love misery.

Either way, the pose that’s saying all by itself is the one with the white t-shirt where she shows not “the finger” but both of those mythical middle fingers.

Like she’s sending this “you’re bugging me!” message to all of you watching these advertising photos right now! All polite, this cute little blonde button!

What’s wrong with you, woman? Can’t your big head understand you’re making too much fuss of your fashion-self?
