This is a long post, I may make it private soon but I felt the need to write this today, for what reason I don’t fully understand still. But I’m glad I did, if anyone reads this, happy new year.

Seventh Heaven: This new favourite editorial of mine titled ‘Moon River’ is both mystically sweet and slightly galactic in shots by photographer Bryan Huynh that feature models cloud 9 seemingly living in some celestial high sky, while wearing nothing other than Chanel Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2017 (first shot features a silver sequinned gown finished with thousands of feathers, and the second is a pale pink gown with a slightly glittery flower trim) for the S/S17 issue of Lula Magazine. via.
Little Dressmaker: Major Marie Antoinette feels at the Christian Dior Haute Couture Fall/Winter 2007 collection by John Galliano, which was extra special due to it celebrating the 60th anniversary of the forever iconic fashion house, I felt it was a true homage to Dior’s past and everything I love about the brand - art, theatrics, classic (yet) next level silhouettes, pure creativity, and a feminine elegance. While the palette was eclectic but fitting with colors of emerald green, peach, midnight blue, muted purple and yellow-orange gradients, one of my favourite pieces was this ultra light pink corseted dress with billowing ruffles, oversized Disney princess sleeves and jewels draped over the bodice, while my other favourite was this baby blue dress with matching satin jacket ribboned with soft white and detailed with flower embroidery, both pieces giving a mix of renaissance & pre-raphaelite vibes. via.

City Of Angels: Lana Del Rey is a vision wearing a flower appliqué Miu Miu S/S 17 bikini top with added glamour surrounded by a purple-pink tone feathered jacket and giant jewels on one of her covers by photographer Charlotte Wales for the Dazed Summer 2017 (releasing April 20th) issue where LDR features in an equally fantastic editorial along with a special feature interview by Courtney Love to promote Lana’s upcoming album ‘Lust For Life’. via.
Bewitching Hour: Some of my favorite shoes to come from Marc Jacobs…
ever! These were from his Fall/Winter 2016 collection and featured a
variety of these semi gothic style mega platforms (which were reported
to have taken much walking practice pre-show) in shades of mostly classic black,
but also dark muted lilac, both hot and dusty pink, as well as an off
white. These colours and this style with a mix of textures (shiny
leathers, suede, snakeskin) created a dark playfulness and a
supernatural sense adding to the theatrics of MJ’s show - a trait of his which I have forever admired. via.
House Of Mirrors: Daria Strokous wears a pale pink gown overflowing with clouds of fabric cinched with a metal gold detailed leaf belt from the Giambattista Valli Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2013 collection (a favourite of mine) in the editorial ‘Garden of Earthly Delights’ in an optical illusion type shot from photographer Emma Summerton for Vogue China Collections special edition issue.
Perfection is not just about control. It’s also about letting go. Surprise yourself so you can surprise the audience.
