Who needs a multiple timezone wristwatch when you can wear one watch for each timezone? Remember that street fashion photography/blogging I was talking about earlier? This comes straight from the Jak and Jill imagery oven! Timeless, speechless, spotless golden style worn to the max. I remain faithful to my conservative style (and even if I [...]

Aesthetically speaking, I’m worryingly ambivalent when it comes to this Chanel Fountain Ring! Upon a first, quick look, I was ready to label it “ugly”. But then… Something happened. Like automatically installing a likeness filter, I started liking this Chanel Joaillerie piece. Not because it’s beautiful (because I still think it’s not, after my standards), [...]

When Burberry unleashed the studded mania last fall, I thought it would be over by now. But nooooh! Instead it climbed all the way to the top: studded headbands, who would’ve thought? Sourcing for inspiration in our very television culture, Jennifer Behr usually made easy-gossip girl headpieces only this time she thought a punk rock [...]

The second installment of the Lady Dior affair is Lady Red. Starring lovely Marion Cotillard, toujours, the new Lady Red Affair previewed its ad print campaign. It’s beautiful and it’s signed by Annie Leibovitz! How could it go wrong? If the first chapter in the Lady Dior short film saga was somewhat strange, this Lady [...]

You don’t keep Lady Gaga for an inside story only! What happened over at V Magazine and how they chose Cameron Diaz for the cover of their July/August 2009 Beauty Issue is still a mystery to me. Bringing the essence of her Gagaattitude, her Pantlesness manages to highlight some weird fashion made to measure her [...]

So it’s true, after all! British songbird Lily Allen is the spokesface for Chanel’s upcoming handbags collection ad campaign! Set to be released in October 2009, Coco Cocoon, the new Chanel bags line will be fronted by Miss Allen looking all princess-ish and lovely as toujours. How beyond! Take that, Emma! (oh, did I ever [...]

I’m one to think as the British elegantly put it “too poor to buy cheap” that quality is important. But branding and quality are not supposed to come together as one in an effort to spend more just to buy the label. A $1,600 Prada hat is the perfect example of how to spend all [...]

Highly stereotyped and unrecognizably styled, Edward Cullen and Bella Swan make it to the dolls/action figures ranks! This might be a great business opportunity for the dolls/action figures makers, but to my eyes it looks pretty lame. While looking nothing like Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson, the dolls/action figures representations pretty ruin the Twilight chemistry.
