I love this blog I found this morning. Its called Caroline's Mode. I am still trying to work my way around the site as it is largely in another language.

However she puts up great (big) pictures of yummy things and documents her own perosnal style really nicely. Thats one thing i dont do is take photos of myself for my blogosphere. Maybe i will...maybe.

Go have a look at it. Its truckloads of fun.

Karen O- Put on a show:


Karen O from the YYY''s is awesome. I love love love her music but I must admit love her style just as much.




This almighty front woman has the guts to do what I never could by taking the most ridiculous things and making them totally enviable ensembles. Granted she has the dramtic benefits of being on stage and so costumey pieces work well for her. I cant imagine wearing half of the stuff she does to my work. I would be escorted out of the building by the fashion police. (Seriously!)





I may take a leaf out of her book and become a little more daring in my apparel choice. It will take some research and careful planning though so as not to look like the below.

hahahahha

This could turn me gay...

I am over Balmain. I am sorry. I think it is an amazing label and I love every collection. It is sexy, wild, rockstar chic that takes itself delicously seriously. BUT it is everywhere. Mags need to stop chanelling it, chain stores need to stop copying it and for god sake people need to stop blogging about it. (hahahaha- i know the irony of that)

It has reached its absolute saturation point which means the end is nigh, no? Everything cool does this. Its such a shame. Every LV and Chloe bag experiences this. Every Marni and Christian Laboutin shoe also. I wish i could hog everything i love so that every knew it was cool but couldn't get themselves. This would be the case in my ideal world.

Back in reality though it simply means success for a great designer which i must learn to repsect.
