bed of roses

I've got flowers in my hair today. A rare sight. But really I just felt like lying on a bed of roses, minus the thorns of course! Thought of this beautiful shot of Russian chameleon Sasha Pivovarova for Numero Sept 2007 by one of my favorite photographers, Camilla Akrans.

hotel missoni

Opening this June in central Edinburgh (and later this year in Kuwait), Missoni takes on its array of multicolored stripes and zigzags into its latest foray, Hotel Missoni. Featuring 136 rooms and suites fully equipped with Missoni bathrobes, slippers and scented toiletries that makes lovely keepsakes, the interior is decorated by Rosita Missoni herself. Don't know where to go this summer? Why not book a room online (from £180/night for a standard room up to £700/night for a suite) and march to the castles?

burnt orange

In love with this Balenciaga A/W 2009 suede Neo-Classic bag! If the color's exactly like this, then I say it's super hot (you know how lighting can distort true colors) but I wouldn't mind it in electric blue either. Striking tones, baby, striking tones.

muted sparkles

Love it all from the peeptoe boots to muted sparkle everything right down to the embellished fingerless gloves. Malo Spring/Summer 2009 collection was Alessandro Dell'Acqua's first and only season for the Italian fashion house as its parent company files for bankruptcy in February.

mcqueen's faithful

He's done it again! Alexander McQueen has released the 'Faithful' collection consisting of a tote bag and this awesome glove clutch (I wonder if the gloves are detachable!). Inspired by the film "Girl On A Motorcycle", the collection is said to evolve from a deconstructed biker jacket. Available this month in McQueen stores and selected retail outlets worldwide.

a stark beauty

Daisy Lowe  is set to be the new face of Spanish high street retailer MANGO. This rock 'n' roll beauty (who is also the current face of Marc by Marc Jacobs) will join Leigh Lezark, Riley Keough, Clara Lago and Marie-Ange Casta for an ad campaign that is currently being shot in Barcelona. From replacing Kate Moss at age 15 (for Agent Provocateur), posing nude for i-D's cover to dating Mark Ronson (who is 13 years her senior), this girl is a badass with a unique brand of rock chic that is hard not to love.
