Miu MiuS/S 2012 Ad Campaign is finally out. Shot by David Sims, staring actress Mia Wasikowska (a.k.a Alice in Wonderland), who brings a little hint of magic into these images. Well, there's nothing like bright yellow to make the colors and the kitschy prints of this collection pop! And every shot looks like a modern take of a portrait from an other era. I wish a film could be styled like this: a Victorian-age novel like Vanity Fair or Great Expectations would be an incredibly perfect fit. Don't you think? Well, as a start, I wish there would be a fashion film of this collection. Set in an incredibly bright Victorian-era London of course! And if possible, directed by Burton. That'd be gold.
Fashion film fantasy apart, I'm loving the cerulean cameo earrings and bracelet. There's nothing like adding bold colors to something classic to turn it modern, and even quite a bit funky (That's Marc Jacobs' best trick). And oh, I'm all about the flowers. A head full of flowers! Next time you'll see me, my hair will be looking exactly like that of Wasikowska on these photos. Luckily, I have my mother's vintage hair flowers to assist me in this new obsession.
I can't believe I hadn't seen it before! So it totally took me by surprise when I saw it while watching TV. Which I rarely do these days... So anyway, here's another cool Chanel Beauté commercial:
It's been long. Too long. The unofficial reason is that I haven't actually been misplaced lately. Things are falling into place. The official reason, nah, there's no official reason for my lack of posting. But a XMAS wish list is as good a reason as any to come back to Blogger. So here's some amazing stuff I wish Santa could leave under my tree tonight...
This week's soundtrack: The Runaways
Seventies rock and punk bring a warm and fuzzy feeling into my heart. I was probably there, on many backstages, of countless concerts, in a previous life. Surely with a black leather jacket and a mean attitude. Oh yes! So here it goes, another great soundtrack. Enjoy!
Do you know your typography ABC? Graphic designers do tend to know all of these type faces by heart. Such nerds we are! Otherwise, this cute video created by Alessandro Novelli is a good start.
Nail Rock has created 10 nail wraps for Meadham Kirchhoff, as part of their Spring 2012 collection. I've never taken my nail grooming that far, but, for these designs... I just might!
Peripatetic...? It's a bit funny by now!
