ABOUT TIME I post the shoot I did. A couple of weeks ago, Bibin (my boyfriend) and I collaborated for a couple of shoots. The first was an impromptu desert-like location - it's actually a construction site near my house. I was wearing an outfit in a similar tone, so voila! After climbing heaps with some very slippery and sand-infested Gucci shoes, I posed for a test shoot. Here's a photograph of me just walking; since the other photos are still under wraps.

Natasha Poly stars in the AWESOME editorial. The makeup is absolutely breath-taking and inspiring. Love the sprayed look of the last photograph. Natasha just has the perfect face for this shoot, couldn't have been better on another model. Those cheekbones!

I definitely need to start shooting my own editorials, this desire's been itching me lately. I might not have a lot of current items, I do have a lot from vintage designers. And after having been shot by my boyfriend a few times, I have really become certain: I belong behind the camera!

Rochas, resort 2013
Back to the 1950's. Don't you love how light everything seems? The black
dresses look perfect for events. The retro prints and silhouettes,
pastel tones with kitten heels to top it off. I especially love the lace
tracing the chest area and max skirts. Definitely needs to go to my
summer closet, immediately. Must I add that they have beautiful bags in
store for this collection?

news recap
in case you missed out...

H&M and Maison Martin Margiela collaborate.
I honestly am devastated by the overly different ideas of the two brands. Firstly, it should be noted that the house HAS collaborated with a shopping catalogue, but it is nowhere of the scale of H&M. The MMM brand is neither about accessibility, nor sales, nor trend. It is, however, of Diesel - its major stakeholder. It's disappointing to have to imagine people who have no clue of the designer/house and to simply purchase upon entering a H&M store. I would be surprised if the collection, like many others, sold out on the first day.
YSL dropping the 'Y', and not inviting press
I honestly thought it was disrespectful at first glance, and marks the death of the house being run by a brand-frenzy-minded Hedi Slimane. But I was very, very wrong. The Yves Saint Laurent name traces back to 1961, when the logo designed by Cassandre started being used. Let's not forget the name in 1966 was Saint Laurent Rive Gauche so according to a house rep, it's a merge between the old and new - Saint Laurent Paris.
I guess he really is trying to restore the origins of the brand. Many fashion houses (e,g. Balmain and Cristobal Balenciaga) refused to invite press and even pressed security before in order to prevent design copies. But this is not really the case with YSL, as I think that's the least of the worries of the global trend-maker. YSL, like many houses, is about exclusivity and respecting it so that customers have the luxury of seeing them first hand before anyone else. But not to worry, this will only apply to the Resort collection, and Spring Menswear.

LILY par Ben Hassett
photographer: Ben Hassett
publication: Numero, July 2012
model: Lily Donaldson
Today's just started, and industry news has packed to a height of the Everest. I'll share that with you later, so here's an editorial!
It's about some time since Lily's editorials have been any of my favorites, and finally Ben Hassett's work becomes an addition to my list. Lily channels a 'cupid' look with short, fringed bleached hair -no eyebrows- and berry lips. The styling's great! The blue-green tones and metallic accents are modern, complimenting, and also highlight Lily's fair, porcelain skin. The doff and blurred qualities of the images give the whole work a haunting finish.
