Velvet Christmas

Velvet seems to be everywhere this season- and what better time is there to try out a velvet dress than at a Christmas party? I put together a few sets for fun :) 

Dagmar dress, Yves Saint Laurent shoes, BCBGMaxAzria clutch, Vera Wang necklace.

Halston dress, Fendi shoes, Miu Miu wallet, Federica Rettore earrings. 

Miss Selfridge dress, Giuseppe Zanotti shoes, Chanel purse, Dara Ettinger ring. 

Dream a little dream of me...

I watched The Great Gatsby the other day, went on a bit of a 1920's fashion binge, and ended up coming across these pictures. When I saw them, Ella Fitzgerald  and Louis Armstrong started singing "Dream a Little Dream of Me" in my head. 

Star Signs

An astrological editorial from Vogue UK's December issue. 

I was very happy to see that Virgo (my sign) is wearing Christopher Kane Resort 2011 :)

Like a weird blacklight party. And weird in a good way.

Eaux Profondes

Alix Malka for Numero Tokyo. I am so in love with this. An underwater fashion shoot involving sequins, glitter and a MERMAID? Yes please.

Seeing Stars

Vogue UK December 2010

Makeup artist Lisa Eldridge was inspired by 1960's face painting. So fun!

Disguised Accessories

A book-clutch and a glove-hat! It's always fun to switch things up...

Shadows

A collection of sort of mysterious images- I seem to find inspiration in the dark serenity in pictures like these. Very beautiful.
