The dip dyed trend is still going strong as featured in this beautifully lit editorial featuring Nicola Haffmans by Sylvia Malfray. That last shot is stunning an so many otherworldy ways.; the white blooms in the foreground, the deep blue of the water in contrast with the sepia surroundsing. Absolutely beautiful work.
Beautiful people backstage at Michael Kors FW2010; Ginta Lapina, Kasia Struss, Jacquelyn & Constance Jablonki, Olga Sherer. I really like the counture, bronzed cheeks & floaty hair.
As if the makeup wasn't stunning enough- with dark eyes and red lips, the devil to Chanel's angel-the man over at Givenchy brings some supernatural super-hero villainous fashion for SS 2010 Haute Couture show. As always I love it. The man can do no wrong. He never wavers the wrong way from the Givenchy aesthetic.
Some beautiful girls with beautiful makeup... Camilla Belle, Megan Fox, Mila Kunis & Mary-Kate Olsen. I spent the whole day at work mentally chronicling MKO outfits with my friend and fellow MKO addict Lucy. It's kind of shameful how much knowledge we have amassed of their outfits be it candids or photoshoots and in the sake of candids, even what they were doing that day. Addiction at it's worst, or best? Also Megan Fox has really been impressing me lately. Now that she's dropped the tan I think her beauty shines on through. I am loving the 50's inspired look she has adopted too. it's classic, no fuss and elegant. She looked perfect at the Toronto Film Festival. She makes me wish my damn cows lick hair would allow me a centre parting *sigh* Her outfit was adorable too. I love the nude fishnets and patent heels. Loving this shoot of indie actress favourites Drew Barrymore & Ellen Page rollerblading for Marie Claire. I think Ellen is beautiful. Here's a trailer for their upcoming roller derby centric MADE-generation type flick 'Whip It'.
Iekeliene Strange & Constance Jablonski shot by Tom Munro in 'Fishing Day'. Boater hats & belted hats oh I love you. If only those waders were great for everyday town/city living... Emma Watson at a press conference for Tale of Despereaux last year. I am loving how classic her style is, especially when considering her hair and makeup. And enjoy this song about sailing away which I'm sure we all would love to do right about now. 'Far Away' by Ingrid Michaelson.
Sasha as 'Paper Bag Princess' for W September 2009. Fur, pearls, paper, wool, silk. Mhmm mixed textures. I'll obviously be making my own DIY embellished Miu Miu socks :) and loving them to death with darker grungey seperates like biker jeackets and lace dresses. Fishnets, polka dots and DMs. YUM. I really do need some DMs in black...and dark red and yellow and pink :P I really want that shade of nail varnish and again the darker lips are love as are the fishnets and the blue fur and the creamy knitted leggings.
Models Lily Donaldson & Anja Rubik on either side of Vogue Paris Fashion Director Emanuelle Alt. Love them all. Want to be Emmanuelle. Anne Vyalitsyna for Vogue Russia September 2009. Dark lips are so appealing. Anna Jagodzainska as Diane Keaton for Vogue Paris September 2009. Vintage camera, nerd glasses and wispy hair poking out from under a floppy hat. I absolutely love it.
I spent all of last night up until the early hours of the morning staring at pictures of beautifully strange hair and swooning over vintage cameras on ebay. Here are some of the hair finds and I hope to be able to mark one of those adorable film cameras of my camera wishlist soon. Loving those two powdery candy colours. If only my hair didn't hate dye >.< Also I would be very much into having a faux hawk made of feathers.
Toni Gaarn & Kim Noorda backstage at Chanel. Anna Selezneva & Kim Noorda at Christian Dior. Ana Carolina Reis having her face encrusted with jewels and Maricarla Boscono, designer Riccardo Tisci's muse, both backstage at Givenchy. Model favourite Ranya Mordanova backstage and Megan Fox front row at Armani Prive.
My name is Jasmin but I've always liked boys with girls' names and names that end in -ie.
I'm an insomniac. I like to stay up late to watch the sky change from blue to black to beige and blue again. I'm a critically indecisive realist whose in love with the little things. I enjoy writing lists and schedules but never stick to them. I want to learn to do a million things like speak Swedish, play guitar, skateboard, hula hoop and play poker. My mind is always turning over a million things but I am a simple girl and I never ask for much. I'm a typical nerd and I'm excited by fashion, photography, books, ideas and theories.
I could pour through books and magazines until my eyes dribbled down my face in a torrent of glitter and sequins. It's true.
I like to paint what I write, write what I think and photograph what I see.
