Pandora
The photos for the Versace Catalogue Winter 1998 where made by Steven Meisel. All are dealing in a mysterious manner with mythological subjects. It’s not mentioned what characters Meisel had in mind when he arranged his photos. But this one reminds a lot of Pandora.
Pandora the curious girl with his box who brings all the evils to mankind as can be seen on this painting from 1894 by the British artist Henrietta Rae (1859-1928).

The Wish List
I love these tote bags designed by Oonagh O'Hagen for Browns focus.
On each simple white bag is a print of a luxury designer bag, such as Louis Vuitton and the words "I am not a Vuitton bag."
It's a parody of the very popular "I'm not a plastic bag" Anya Hindmarch designed a couple of years back which you could get for just a fiver at Sainsbury's.
My favourite out of the range has to be the Chanel 2.55 one though (see bottom photo)

I am definitely adding these to my wish list!
A nice twist on the famous 'to-die-for' designer bags and at a fraction of the price:

Style Inspiration- Ugly Betty
You are probably thinking, “Yes I love Ugly Betty, her character is cute, the plots are silly but fun, the fashion references are good, and Marc and Amanda’s bitchy comments are hilarious but ‘style inspiration,’ really?”
Well yes, the costume designs for Ugly Betty are done by none other than the Patricia Field, who in case you didn’t already know is the genius behind the wardrobes in Sex and the City, The Devil Wears Prada and also Confessions of a Shopaholic.
So yes here is my unlikely style inspiration this week and I am taking inspiration from Betty's clashing patterns, quirky accessories, bright colours and cute sweaters...

Patricia Field, stylist guru
She has also done the warbrobes for Sex and the City, The Devil Wears Prada and Confessions of a Shopaholic.
And of course Ugly Betty...
Does anyone else have a weird style crush?!

Erin Wasson...
ll y a des filles comme ça... naturellement et incroyablement belles ! Avec ces filles là, nullement besoin d'une once de maquillage, elles sont aussi belles au lever du jour qu'à son coucher. Erin Wasson fait partie de ces filles là, non seulement magnifique, elle cumule style et beauté !
Un style un peu grunge, mais teinté de cette élègance naturelle dont je raffole.
Elle est originaire du Texas, aime le surf et le skate...
Mannequin depuis l'âge de 16 ans, muse et amie (un temps...) d'Alexander Wang , créatrice de bijoux (LowLuv)
et styliste pour la marque RVCA (vendu chez Colette...)
Vous l'aurez compris...Erin Wasson n'est pas non plus qu'un joli sourire !!
