Don't you hate it when no matter how hard you try, your parents will always be cooler than you?

Here in my car
I feel safest of all
I can lock all my doors
It's the only way to live
In cars

I thought that the lovely Bettie Page had never been photographed after she withdrew from the public many years ago. However, I just stumbled across this photograph taken in 2003.

She still looks beautiful! She is around 80 years old in this photo. Still has the trademark bangs and excactly the same smile . . . right down to the cherry lipstick!

Such an icon, and a loss. rip bettie

dirty pretty young thing

I have become enamoured with a girl who makes trash look beautiful . . .

i first saw Alice Dellal in an issue of 'let them eat cake' last year. then she was popping up all over the place. With her trademark ripped stockings and partially shaved haircut she is defining a look all of her own.

My inspirations this week.
Am rocking the Stella Mccartney Perfume at the moment.
I have been listenning to New Buffalo again, i love all her outifts too. I remember at a gig she said all her dresses are Lover (lucky thing!).
I have been keeping my eye out for some white jazz shoes, these ones are a bit crude, sort of look hand made...thats what I like about them though.
I just got my record fixed, have a pretty limited selection at the moment so this feist record has been on high rotation.
Lady Grey, my new favourite tea. Perfect for drinking in front of Antiques Roadshow in the afternoons.
I love these dusty pink hotpants, I have been keeping an eye out for some little unusual shorts to pair with bright tights.

i heart robots

I just love this pic of Karen O backstage at a gig. I wish I could dress up as a sparkly robot each day and get payed for it.

Henry Darger, oh Henry Darger!
How delighted I was to stumble on this incredible artist via the candy pages of Lula.

His story tangled my mind with it's twists and turns. It is like a bittersweet cupcake baked with confusion, amazement, mystery and fucking beautiful drawings.

If you have a moment, read his wiki entry it's fascinating. He endlessly inspires me. I'm still hoping for one of his books.

It's dark, it's innocent, it's sweet. Truly a romantic story of a reclusive man. He endlessly inspires me.

So the other night my favourite model in the world came into my work. Pania Rose. She was so sweet and cute! I had to restrain from gushing about her editorials.

About 5/6 years ago my walls were plastered with her images.

Her outfit was wicked sticks. NY cool.

I love girls with fringes. It evokes such a mysterious air. What is she hiding under the sweeping hair. Grazing over giraffe length ebony lashes. There's nothing like seeing a cute girl peer at you with her clear eyes from under a set of 60's bangs.

I've been obsessed with having a straight fringe for a few years now. Forever lusting after the seemingly low maintenance tresses of Miss Jane Birkin. I love this photograph. It's almost as if she's mesmerised by her own beauty.

Of course there are plenty of modern day sweeties dwelling on the fringes of fashion. My favourite lady Zooey Deschanel and model Irina.

last night at work i made the mistake of drinking a whole bottle of champagne. The night was fizzing with small golden bubbles. floating around my head like a song. everyone looked like they were bathing in a golden light. streaks glowing accross their faces. their cheeks popping like banana caramel cake.

i got through it. finished up and locked the door. check. double check. triple check... over check everything. i made my way onto the street. riding my shiny vintage yellow bike. turning up an old street. a van came so close it grazed my fear and made my canned heart skip an electronic beat.

who thought you could stumble so much on a bike ?
