virtuoso

Steven Meisel is the ish. Alber Elbaz on the other hand, is nothing short of magnificent.

In the words of the artistic director:

"I thought maybe we need a bit of action, "

"She moved so fast, even the chandelier was moving with her,"

"That's the kind of girl I like,"

kiss me under the mistletoe

Dreamt of a white Christmas but that's just wishful thinking. Unfortunately it's super hot this part of the globe. Hope you have a blessed and joyful one. Happy holidays! x

grand slam

The A-Z of designer's lust-worthy pieces on a roll in W Mag. Enough to make you dizzy. And reach for that ice cream tub for comfort.

Mmmmm.... it's okay to cheat once a week if we had these!

bike heels

Catherine Baba. Stylist of all stylists. Only this woman can ever be so stylish and ride a bike (in those heels!) at the same time. Fierce!

cutting edge

Lady Gaga must have these stacked in her shoe closet! The "Invisible Shoe" is an asymmetrically mirrored low-cut boot, reflecting its surroundings and making the color of the world a part of your wardrobe. Brazilian footwear designer Andreia Chaves created a range of wildly geometric shoes from unconventional materials while studying form, texture and visual effects in Florence, Italy.

Massive, gorgeous rings on display. Would you wear one (or a few) on each finger like this Luxirare extraordinaire?

i'm back!

I know, I keep pulling off this Houdini trick more often than I should but with good reason. Aside from the piling work and in between falling sick and a buying trip for the store, I started training for Operation Sexy Beautiful 2010 (named by this health-focused, eco-friendly, gorgeous lass) more than a week ago in hopes to feel better, look better, sleep better, have that cake and eat it too. Hope you darlings had a great week!

rock 'em hard

Jaw-dropping. Tanja S London also known as Tanja Savic is a seasoned shoe designer who has worked with everyone from Jimmy Choo to Topshop before starting her own label. For her Autumn/Winter 2009 collection, she's got everything covered from snakeskin, knee-high lace ups, velvet, studs, patent and Swarovski crystals but I have to say, that leather bootie is the ultimate. Check out the entire collection here.

Danny Roberts of Igor+André is the man behind the expansive portraits of "It" models and bloggers. These are some of his recent work. Like it? They're up for sale here.

overload

I'm a sucker for jewelry. Always on a hunt for killer baubles. On a good day, I'd pile them up to the bones and the clitter clatter of it would annoy the hell out of some. Got myself three new vintage rings last night for a bargain. Wanted this armor ring from H&M but the bestfriend in London a.k.a the designated buyer told me it's sold out! Argh, such a shame we don't have H&M here.

Just purchased Lady Gaga's The Fame Monster and Rihanna's Rated R album. A couple of good tracks on both. Did you know Akon discovered Gaga and later signed her to his label Kon Live?
