I love Raf Simons

I can't describe how much of a genius he is. His beautiful Fall 2010 collection, the amazingly cut and put together suits. His impeccable tailoring. I just swooned! I'd quite like to marry his collections, they are beauty in my eyes.

I first stumbled across Raf Simons when I saw the photography for his collection in 2009 with Fred Perry. I instantly fell in love with the advertisements.

It was so eerily cool, it just attracted me to look more into it. And I've been interested in his work since.

Spring/Summer 2010



Delicious. I'm feeling a bit of the Burberry Prorsum Spring/Summer 2010 womenswear vibe pushed on to men and I'm liking it. I have a thing about brown belts... Also reminding me of the Alexander McQueen Fall/Winter 2002. Yummmmmmmmm!

Fall/Winter 2010



Sexy sexy cut suits. It's the bright colour pops in comparison to the sombre overall suit colour which gets me. And the general inventive tailoring.

Spring/Summer 2011



Again the splashes of colour on everyday suits, the tailoring. Men in shorts that look like kilts/skorts and cycling shorts!

And check out in the first image the back of the suit behind! Oh to see a man in one of these suits on the streets... I think I might chase after him and stroke him... sorry...

Raf Simons - one to watch!

Listening to The Past Should Stay Dead by Emarosa.

Hmmmm...

Alexander McQueen Fall 2009 RTW

Need I say anything more?

Fendi F/W 2010

The ad campaign for this collection is absolutely beautiful.
I've been for the past couple of months having a bit of a girl crush on Jessica Stam. But only recently have I actually been able to have a little search around for her modelling work, what with my massive work load (which I should be doing right now but I am far too worn out).
She's just unbelievably pretty.
I would looooove to be her.

I love the reflection in the glasses in this image. Such a contrast to the smoke and grey around her. Reminds me of Versailles (the reflection I mean).

This dress strangely reminds of one of the dresses from Alexander McQueen's Fall/Winter 2010 collection, this is probably because all I have on the brain is Alexander McQueen as of the past three weeks.

Also just to add to the beauty of these shoots, is that it is by the amazing Karl Lagerfeld.
Nom nom nom.

On a completely other note what is up with facebook these days?
Totally acting up all the time. Saying people are offline when they are not. Telling me I have a notification about a thousand times for something I haven't got!
Gah!
Sort yourself out!

Anyway bed time for the tired.

Listening to Ellie Goulding's cover of Temper Trap's Sweet Disposition in the Live Lounge.

"if she's not coming home for easter she's not getting the bunny for easter either!"

That's a great looking car you got there...
This car has been outside my uni for like weeks. Every day we walk passed it it's even more trashed.
It started with smashed windows and stolen number plates. Then more smashed windows, burst tyres and bashed up wing mirrors. And then its been set fire to, all the interiors melted. This could have been very dangerous, I mean what if there was still petrol in it it would have blown up and set fire to all the trees around it! Very dangerous indeed.

So yeah the place where my uni is - not so safe.

On to more interesting things. It's easter and I'm home!!
It was a long horrible journey home, but I spent the time playing The Sims on the train. This probably amused the man stood behind me but whatever. I'm sure it made his journey all the more interesting too.
This game is so addictive. Just can't get over it.
Although I do find the choice of things to do, items of clothing and furniture rather lacking, but it's nice to have the choice to change it all yourself and add patterns and things to it. But I just miss the freedom and choice of Sims 2.
But it's still as addictive as ever. Reason why I haven't started my essay for uni yet.

What's my favourite thing about easter?
The thought that it's going get warmer which means I don't have to wear coats anymore, I can wear my blazer without a cardigan underneath, I can wear a cardigan on it's own, the summer dresses can come out without looking underdressed for the weather, the ballet pumps can be worn instead of ugg boots, and I can wear my white cardigan again.

My easter wardrobe if I could afford it:

Viktor and Rolf Resort 2010

Outfits I would love to wear to a nice dinner with the girls.

Ohhh wish...

Burberry Prorsum Spring RTW 2010

I think I would live in the outfit on the right. Yum.

House of Holland Fall RTW 2010

Alexander McQueen Resort 2010

I think I love McQueen's Resort collection a bit too much. I want nearly all the pieces in the collection. I just love the sketchy, artists feel to it.

This has gone on quite long now, so I think I'll end it.

Have a nice easter!

Watching Gilmore Girls/CSI New York.

mmmm...

Interesting fact:

In the reception of Alexander McQueen is a stuffed polar bear.

I wanted to touch it.

i'm obsessed with this mess that's america.

I can't stop dreaming of being Lily Allen.

What have I done today?
Not much...
Watched a programme about Alexander McQueen - twice.
Read about Fashion Psychology.
Wrote a letter.
Viewed two houses.
Dreamed about being Lily Allen.
Made apple crumble.

Not a very productive day to be quite honest.

Now I shall force myself to go to sleep with obsessive thoughts of Alexander McQueen.
*sigh*

ps. Listening to the whirring of someone else's extractor fan really isn't particularly entertaining.
