M I L K || May/June Lookbook from Gypsum Style on Vimeo.

Milk is the May/June lookbook from US brand Gypsum.  The styling in the lookbook; clean and sporty mixed with textures of lace and denim and metallic accents of chunky silver jewellery, is further accentuated by model Courtney Money's platinum locks and striking features.

What really made it stand out for me were the gifs mixed in with the still images- so unexpected and such a cool concept!  Although you should really head on over to their website to see it in situ to get the full effect.

Far from Falling

Sky Ferreira for Saint Laurent Pre-Fall '13 

photographed by Hedi Slimane 

 Sky Ferreira may be known firstly as a popstar but presence in the fashion world only seems to be getting greater as she is chosen as the face of Parisian fashion house Saint Laurent's Pre-Fall campaign.

 The songstress appears in a series of striking images lensed by the brand's own creative director.  Shot in his signature black and white style that showcasing the luxe textures of the collection in leather, lace and chiffon and also provide an interesting contrast to the grungier feel of Sky's hair and makeup.

Anja

My model obsession of the moment is Russian born Australian beauty Anja Konstantinova. Standing at just 5'4" she is tiny by model standards but with her freckled elfin features, petite frame and striking platinum hair and brows it's easy to see how she has become a firm favourite of photographers and designers alike.

Some of my favourite images of her are the stunning black and white shots featured above, lensed by photographer Steven Chee. Visible on her ribcage in these images is one of Anja's several cat inspired tattoos. As a fellow feline enthusiast, any girl that loves cat that much that she permanently inks them on her body wins instant cool points from me.

A Quick Note

I don't usually like to leave the blog too long without posting but I think this time I have a rather good excuse- I started my brand new job this week and am finally getting to do what I have been wanting to do for quite a long time, so I am very happy. However they have been keeping me super busy hence the lack of content.  I do have quite a few things I have been meaning to post, so hopefully normal service will resume this weekend.

In the mean time, please enjoy the 'Thieves' video from She & Him.  I am a big fan of Zooey Deschanel and that love has only been increased by this video shot in rather vintage looking black and white with Zooey resembling a silent film star.  Magic.

Polka Dot Fantasies: Stella McCartney AW11

Stella McCartney AW11, Paris

Polka dots; the type usually found on the Sunday Best of quaint English Misses, got sexy at Stella Mc Cartney. Cleverly arranged over otherwise see through bodices and dresses, and embroidered on to daring tulle cutaway panels of sensuous black dresses that showcased the models flesh beneath.

My personal favourite is the polka dot bodiced jumpsuit in the first picture with the sweetheart neckline and retro looking peplum- it has an air of vintage about it whilst still managing to look fresh.
