Gorgeous!        

DSquared2 Milan Menswear

Need to find better pictures of this:
        Apparently DSquared's runway in Milan was full of these bloodied boxers. The one on the left's a bit crap but the others are great.

Jessica Backhaus: What Still Remains; One Day In November; Jesus And The Cherries

Bit long, this one, but I just love what she does and had to pick a few from (almost) every set she had on her website. She makes them awesome in lots of different ways, although the ones I've posted here probs seem a bit samey cos I love the ones with taps in.

WHAT STILL REMAINS:

Nice reminder of how great the Holga can be.

I know I only really post paintings when they're photorealistic, and I guess that's a bit boring but also because I just prefer the way photos look to the way paintings do, most of the time. So have some more.

This is a painting! More interesting than a lot of the photo-realistic stuff, not to be blasé about the genre (would you call it a genre?) but this is a particularly good idea.

Daniel Egnéus: Sharkgirl and Princess Vittoria Alliata

These are so cool, I love this style... How does he know when he's finished?

Mince Pies

Hmm, mince pies on the side at work. Really fancy a mince pie, but have to wait to be offered. "Anyone want a breakfast mince pie?" "Hah, no, no thanks" GODDAMMIT!! Why do I make things difficult for myself?

Not My Fault

You know when a song pops into your head and you just have to hear it? Well, for once I am glad that last.fm can't scrobble youtube as I'm now listening to Sinéad O'Connor's Nothing Compares 2 U for the fourth time in a row.

Winter Wardrobe: Half Gloves

So I was watching GG the other night, the one with Little J's debutante ball, and I noticed her sporting some stupid half gloves. I made the mistake of mentioning this to people as well ("Ugh, she's such a knob")... Now what do I spot on eBay and immediately start lusting after? Half gloves. Probably fingerless. LOOK AT THEM!
        Also on my to-do list is making a jersey fabric neck-warmer, like a soft tubular shawl. Practical! I spotted them in Dorothy Perkins and was annoyed with myself for not thinking of it first. I had a knitted one that I always wore a couple of winters ago, but this version will be more comfy and more stylish, I recks.

Wowee, these are pretty fucking special. Love the rearview mirror one and the seaside sunset, and how the fuck did he get that twin towers shot? Astounding.

Thanks, Boss

Yeah so everyone in our office had to go upstairs and 'have lunch' (pick at a buffet) together; I was feeling incredibly awkward and incapable of regular human interaction when my boss made it all better by recommending a book to me: "How to Behave in an Office". Fucking cheers.

Leighton Meester And Sebastian Stan - Crowned

So I guess I'm pretty late to this, but Leighton Meester and Sebastian Stan, huh?! I don't know how I missed it, I'm up to date on all the other Gossip Girl pairings. This one makes me incredibly happy though. I always knew he was hot, even when nobody agreed. I feel like this is vindication. And good for her! She gets the hottest guy, and she gets to make out with Chuck Bass without having to take Ed Westwick home. Cos let's face it - while Chuck Bass is a smouldering hunk of daddy issues, Ed Westwick is a WANKER.
        Everybody's hot on GG but this has to be the ultimate pairing, non? Blake Lively and wotsisface are hot, yeah, but they lose major points for their characters' lameness - yawn. These two rule with an iron fist.
