Oh how I WISH i was an insider! A chosen one. A part of the machine.... sigh. However all is not lost, Cinders SHALL go to the 'After Thought' that is London Fashion Weekend... and my sister has the MOST AMAZING vintage dress to wear - very much similar to the first John Rocha one pictured. Can't wait! Will post pics;) P.S. I just saw The September Issue... brilliant.

Another one to frame.

Chloƫ Sevigny in Miu Miu spring/summer 2006 Photography: Craig McDean

So so so so gorgeous. I really love Chloƫ Sevigny and I really love good fashion photography. How beautiful is she? How beautiful is this?

BTW I have unashamedly poached this from http://www.cocosteaparty.com, one of my fave fashion bloggers - check her out - but the photography comes from a Decade in Style Portfolio by Hedi Slimane and Craig McDean for AnOther Magazine. AnOther Magazine is due out 17th September nationwide and you can read more about it on http://dazeddigital.com/Fashion/article/4425/1/Decade_in_Style.

So really this post consists of none of my own findings or creativity but is merely public admiration of other peoples work. I just couldn't resist.

I wish I had a prom to go to....



'Alexander McQueen's Resort (2010) collection was inspired by the notion of an artist in his studio. Hence the splatter effects, brushstroke and line-drawing prints, and a series of blue and white hand-painted pieces. Additionally, the women's line had a bit of romance in the form of lace overlays as delicate as insect wings.' (Laird Borrelli-Persson at Style.com)

So so so so stunning... Alexander McQueen is one of my favourite and my bestist and this dress is just another reason why. I just wish the model looked at least a little bit 'fierce'.... this is not a 'pretty pretty' dress in my mind... and it needs to be wearing a model with some va va voom. There also should be some spikes on those heels and some red lippy on that face... and the hair... don't start me with the hair... but I digress. This dress simply ROCKS.

Matthew Williamson eat your heart out.









Future Gardens (known as 'the butterfly farm') in St. Albans, England.

Apparently these beautiful flowers - which actually were mainly in the car park and on the drive up to the entrance - are Californian Poppies that were specially shipped over. I really really loved them - next to the butterflies they were the best part about the place - and i quite fancy some (obviously to line the vast car park and drive up to my mansion) but am not sure how you get your hands on Californian seeds - customs etc. Anyhow, if anyone knows how to get some or are willing to risk deportation for smuggling some across the skies or seas to me, I would be eternally grateful (that's a long time you know.) Thanks!
