Givenchy


 Apparently Adriana Lima is set to be in the new Givenchy FW 09 campaign with 3 other models excited you bet !

has anyone seen ...

This i Kinda wanna see this ps watch the beyonce beatdown near the end GIRLFIGHT !!

BY GOLLY IS BROWNS PRESS DAY

Now I know everyone has talked about it but can i just reiterate the awesomeness !!! can every press office do one of these HOW FUN

sun not so fun !

So my lack of clothing situation is becoming really unfunny i keep washing my clothes in the hope that they will come out of the wash looking like something else other than the shit that i have. while everyone is estatic about the sun I'm what you would call sun scared as a fat girl there are very few decent options for me to choose this summer

i'm aiming for


But knowing me its gonna turn out like

Alas this is always the case i have recently spent the past three days feverishly looking for fun fat things but its proving quite difficult

if anyone has any suggestions other than the obvious (say hello salad bye cakes )let me know !

Girl Crush






Girl crushes don't come around often for me this is because there aren't many girls that i'm into they all seem so obvious so saying the same ones as everyone else seems rather pointless.

For the past few weeks i've been slightly obsessed with Cassie Coane she holds a night with Harley Veira Newton @ Lit on a wednesday and they have a show on east village radio called teenage kicks i love the way she argues with everyone and plays bands i LOVE plus she has a rather envious collection of clothes which i'm in dying need of (more about my lack of clothes situation later)


I wonder if she would be up for a life swap??


PS harley and Cassie have a blog too.

Dear ......






 Alexander Wang,

I hope this letter finds you well!

I've waited what seems like weeks and i still have no bag/shoes or t shirts  from the FW09 Alexander Wang collection 

Mary Kate Olsen isn't responding to my emails/ faxes/ twitter responses therefore i feel like i have to go to the source. I think I should get these flat studded boots seen in the picture above/ an assortment of t shirts and that studded bag  Mk has  for the following reasons:

A ) I'm frumpy, when your a frump u need ALL the help you can get honestly if I had these items I truly feel that everything will be amazing. Consider this as a good deed you would be turning the black version of Muriel in Muriel's wedding into a full time glamour puss.

B) Sending look books to the LOVE office today was a clear indication that you want me to see your amazing collection if you don't want rather odd open letters i suggest you don't send shiny new look books.

C) If I don't have these items soon  I feel like my life will descend into complete and utter chaos i will have to rob a few pensioners and homeless people, I'm sure you wouldn't want to be associated with crime (ill tell them you made me do it) so for good pr reasons I feel like sending me these items would be  highly beneficial to both of us.

I'm a size 41/42 shoe (yes i know big feet )
L-XL in the t shirts (naturally)
Ill take whatever bag but ideally the studded backpack would be marvellous Items can be sent to my home address or to the office whatever is convenient for you.

I await your response 


many thanks 

Jeanie Annan-lewin

DREAMO of TEAMO







Teamo is a brand that packs serious punch Rafa and Roberto design clothes with bundles of personality if they could talk they would say "i'm cool you know i am and if you undo my buttons and slip inside everyone will think your cool too!". I stumbled  across on them while surfing myspace weirdly enough and I've been romantically involved ever since . Rafa and Roberto kindly agreed to answer some of my banal questions on their awesome FW09-10 collection we talked kittens mexico and youtube.


I know you came together in 2006 but what were your backgrounds before that ?
Rafael was a musician and was the vocal of a band "dragkillers" and he also design clothes for his own label and Roberto, was studing communications, and design and did fashion styling for mexican magazines..

What this is particular collection based on ? What were your influences what kind of girl and boy are you designing for? 
Aleister Crowley and his poetry. We think one of the most important influences in every collection are our girlfriends. We design for boys and girls that are not afraid of experiement with silouettes, and know what´s happening in the world.

I'm interested in how you use references from the past with a modern edgy twist will you tell me more about that what's your process?
 As mexicans we have lots of old fashion references wich still alive on the streets but a contemporary touch, so we have this kind of vision to make something modern from something old.

 TEAMO is all about LOVE what things pocessions or people do you love the most?first our little kitten " manzana" our friends, our partners, our city, ourselves.

What's your favourite song right now ?
rafa- eleanoora rosenholm "maailmanloppu"
roberto- Bridez "heart"


Whats the last thing you youtubed?

rafa- corazón de verano
roberto- La bruja "escandalo"

Where are your  Yummy scrummy pieces available?

Dominic Jones is a great jewellery designer his pieces are tough and dainty all at the same time I was first shown them by the rather lovely Julia and then I remembered reading about him in time out magazine he's one of Pugh's one to watch with great hair (i'm quite jealous of the colour) a fun blog and a rather cool celeb following big things are happening for this chap.

Delinquents in W






more model mayhem shoot fun see Daisy, Eliza, Portia , Eden oh and Peaches being all moody and stuff shoot by Steven Meisel and styled by Alex White 


Are you watching the watchmen??

I have been gripped by the watchmengate on jack & Jil blog I've read all the comments over and over again looked at the their clothes and my own shabby dressed self. i cant decide whether i think its  all rather fabulous or if i think there a bunch of style obsessed attention seeking misfits, if it's the latter is this because I'm awfully poor and can't afford cotton let alone gorilla??? or  is it because i come into contact with people in fashion who don't do but BE. Like i said before it's completely captivating to dress like these guys clothes are a form of expression but 7 times out of 10 people who dress like that come into two categories they either have it  great position and pick super great samples and are flaunting it (fair enough when i make it it will be hello vuitton bye bye primark) or people who have watched  the devil wears Prada one to many times we all know the types you see  them at the opening of a crisp packet yapping on about how fabulous everything is. Don't get me wrong I'm not fashion bashing I'm simply saying that  when you carry boxes , hang clothes and steam  shit you cant afford you tend to have very little time for clean clothes let alone super fancy ones.
