Jennifer Connelly in Vogue


Jennifer Connelly in the November issue of Vogue. The cover does not amaze me, but she is stunning and I love the photography.

A Room Of My Own

I'm rearranging my room at the moment so I've been looking for some inspiration from magazines like Teen Vogue (the 'A Room Of My Own' at the last page in each issue, and their room makeovers), and also Harper's Bazaar ('A Fashionable Life' where famous people let us see their fashionable homes). I've scanned in some of my favourite rooms and I'll post it here for some inspiration.
Here's Aerin Lauder in Harper's Bazaar June 07


The flowers bring some life into the room - they're always classic.


I love the Z desk!



The modern mirror table mixes perfectly with the vintage wallpaper.

Here are the rooms from Teen Vogue

This closet is amazing. I would love to have this bright and accessable walk-in closet!

Perfect for small spaces.

I love a big and comfy bed.

Mirrors are great for making a room look bigger.

Magazine pages and personal photos are perfect for decorating walls.

I would never have thought that a tree could look good in a bedroom. I love the mirrors and the see-through chair.

I'm thinking about getting a white closet that has a bit of a vintage flair, and either a glass/mirror table or something like that in the photo above. Then, of course, I'll decorate with beautiful mirrors, (scented) candles and flowers.

Good Thing Come In Small Packages


As a celebration of their 140th anniversary, Harper’s Bazaar publish a rather different editorial, featuring smaller editions of top designers.
The 10-page spread, photographed by Peter Lindbergh, features the Class of 2007, with children dressed up as designers including Karl Lagerfeld, Alber Elbaz, Donatella Versace, John Galliano, Miuccia Prada, Olivier Theyskens and Stella McCartney, standing next to model Chanel Iman in an outfit from each designer.
According to Glenda Bailey, editor in chief of the magazine, “Even though these designers are monumental talents, good things come in small sizes.”
I love Harper's Bazaar's creative ideas, like the Simpson spread, how amazing was that?

Hair Dilemma

I have really troubled hair, I have to wash it everyday - I know you're not supposed to do that, but I have to, 'cause I want go out of the house with dirty hair (like, sadly, some people do). I can't seem to find the right shampoo and I always have to curl it or straighten it or put it up in a bun or ponytail. If I don't do something with it, I get ugly waves...not the cool just-got-out-of-bed waves but the one-wave thing. I'm getting so frustrated about it. I started thinking that all these problems might be due to the fact that I'm not using the right hair products (but I've tested all kinds of shampoos and nothing seems to do the trick). So I bumped into this article about how to wash your hair properly and it made me interesting. I'm always kinda rushing when I'm in the shower - not really noticing what I'm doing. But the article made me think about it and I think my hair looked a lot better yesterday when I actually took time to massage my scalp. Check out the article on BellaSugar.

Evan Rachel Wood's Nylon Cover

In the September issue of Nylon, Evan Rachel Wood talks about her relationship with Marilyn Mansoon. “I’ve grown up in an adult world, so I’m mature. But at the same time, I can’t deny my actual age.”
I don't really know what I think about this relationship, he's like 15 years older than ther or something? Well, if they're in love...



Like the photoshoot :)

Here are new ad photos from the Pepe Jeans London campaign, modeled by Sienna Miller.
Her hair and make up looks great, and I like the layout a lot.

Braided, Waved Hair

I love this girl's hair. I don't know who she is but I'm guessing David Hasselhoff's daughter or something. They were seen together at the ‘Celebrity Catwalk For Charity’ on August 16th.
The hair looks really shiny and healthy, and the colour looks great. But the styling is the best part, the braids and the waves. Sometimes when I wash my hair right before I go to sleep I braid it when it's wet, and then take them off in the morning. It makes beautiful waves but since I don't have really long hair it doesn't look as good as at this girl.


Great hair inspiration! I really like her outfit, casual chic.
