Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette


I Want This


Best tattoos ever

This is why I love The Sartorialist: The pantyhose line tattoos down the backs of this girl's legs *author wishes she'd thought of it first*

Get this party started on a Saturday night....

My dear friend Gabriella (check out her blog, In Wonderland) are hitting the town tonight. We're going to drink some tequila and shake some tail feather a la John Travolta & Uma Thurman. The question is: Who's John and who's Uma *author rolls around on the floor snort-laughing*


Author is totally John.

Like My New Header?

The images are from Monica Menez's Torture series. Love this girl's work. Check out her short film, Precious (nothing like the depressing one with the fat pregnant teenage black girl and Mariah Carey) and more here.

Living Walls

I know that these have been around a while, but my flat mate just came back from Paris with a photo of one such building and I've been thinking about them ever since.And there are indoor ones too! Kinda brings new meaning to the term 'urban jungle' *author thinks she is SOOOOO witty*

The Light Bulb Goes On!

I've just realised that this is a picture blog. I'm not a good photographer *author has never owned a camera so duh!* and I don't draw very well but I think in images (not words or concepts or sounds or smells): IMAGES!Ceiling + Light Bulb by Robert Rauschenberg (1950)

I want to be Karin Dreijer Andersson when I grow up.

I cannot explain how cool the band The Knife are.


Their Darwinian electro-opera they did for Hotel Pro Forma is genius. Do it. Now.

Christina Hendricks

In an episode in Season Three of Mad Men, the ad men are doing campaign for Playtex and they're describing every female as either a Marilyn Monroe or a Jackie Kennedy. Uninformed feminist 'hurummphs' aside, there is this amazing line where Crane asserts that Marilyn Monroe is a Joan. This woman is the ultimate femme fatale: powerful because of her femininity. I love Christina Hendricks! She's fat *let's not beat around the bush, boys and girls---- she probably has a crazy corset on under all her clothes and she still has a belly* but she's fucking hot :) Loving it!

Shit Got Real

I haven't blogged in ages: here's why. I went away. I was in a serious car accident. I got dumped. I'm making my directorial debut in two weeks time. No sympathy needed or deserved. I want to grow down a little. Life has chucked several lemons my way: I'm cracking open a bottle of tequila :)
