Haute Couture Season always gets the blogosphere in a spin but Christian Dior and Chanel failed to thrill me this season. Christian Dior was like Audrey Hepburn versus Cruella Deville in a cat fight at the races. I just didn't love it and as for Chanel- I adore Karl Lagerfeld but he didn't give us anything we hadn't seen before- trademark twee suits but in a sparkling knit, some Valentino-esque frou-frou pastel ruffles and candy coloured skirt suits. Beautifully boring, however every cloud has a silver lining and at Chanel it was the hair. Look at it. Beehive studded with flora and fauna and a full face-gracing fringe.

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.
