Fresh and British...

Hello,

It just came to my attention a newish brand called 'Bolongaro Trevor'. Nice discovery, I just had a look at their webiste and I think this label is pretty cool, especially if you like the style of 'All Saints' clothing.

The collection is designed by Kait Bolongaro and Stuart Trevor, former designers behind All Saints Retail Ltd.

Ahhhh... so it's all explained why you might fall in love with it so quickly, the collection is good enough for the likes of Agyness Deyn & Daisy Lowe so join the club.

Here the usual peep 2 looks from the catwalk and some looks from the lookbook A/W 2009.





As I said... all lovely, fresh and British!

Rachel Sarah Bilson Beauti Actress





Rachel Sarah Bilson Beauti Actress
Rachel Sarah Bilson (born August 25, 1981) is an American actress. After growing up in a California show business family, she made her television debut in 2003 and subsequently became well-known for playing Summer Roberts on the prime time drama series The O.C. Bilson made her film debut in the 2006 film The Last Kiss and starred in the 2008 action/sci-fi film Jumper. Bilson was born in Los Angeles, the daughter of Janice (née Stango), a sex therapist, and Danny Bilson, a writer/director/producer. Rachel Bilson's father is Jewish and her mother is a Philadelphia-born Italian American. Bilson's father comes from a show business family; her great-grandfather, George Bilson, (born in Leeds, West Yorkshire, UK) was the head of the trailer department at RKO Pictures, while her Brooklyn-born great-grandmother, Hattie Bilson, was a screenwriter and her grandfather, Bruce Bilson, is a film director. Bilson's parents divorced during her childhood, and in 1997, her father remarried Heather Medway, an actress and the mother of Bilson's half-sisters Hattie and Rosemary.

Bilson has been noted as having a "self-destructive, rebellious period" during her teen years. When she was 16, she and a group of her brother's friends were involved in a car accident, a head-on collision with another car. As a result, Bilson was unconscious for a few days, has a scar above her right eye, and sometimes suffers from migraines and memory loss; she has stated that the experience "changed" her, encouraging her to "stop... getting into trouble" and stopping her from "going down that road". Bilson began dating her The O.C. co-star Adam Brody in 2003. In late 2006, Bilson and Brody ended their relationship.[28] In March 2007, she started dating Canadian actor Hayden Christensen, after meeting on the set of Jumper. The couple got engaged in December 2008, over the holidays.

Bilson has been recognized by several media sources as being a "fashion junkie". She has described herself as having a "vintage" sense of style, and noted Kate Moss and Diane Keaton as inspirations. Her clothes often have a "boho" feel to them. She approached DKNY Jeans in late 2007 with a view to design a clothing line with the popular fashion brand. Together they created Edie Rose. The collection was launched in September 2008. An advertising image was released in July 2008 which featured Bilson modelling her Edie Rose collection. Of her line, she said in an interview with Teen Vogue "I wanted to keep it as separate as possible from Rachel Bilson the actress. I'm hoping people will appreciate it for the clothes, not the person behind them." Much of her fashion collection was lost when her home was burglarized in May, 2009. Bilson has turned down requests to appear seminude in men's magazines, specifying that she feels that her body "is sacred" and "not there for the whole world to see". However, she has been featured in a pictorial in the men's magazines Stuff and GQ

Tricia Helfer Supermodel Pictures




Tricia Helfer Supermodel Pictures
Tricia Janine Helfer (born April 11, 1974) is a Leo Award winning Canadian actress and former model, best known for her role as Number Six in the 2003+ Battlestar Galactica miniseries and television series, as well as her role as "Carla" on Burn Notice. Helfer was born and raised in the rural community of Donalda in Stettler County, Alberta. She was raised on her family's grain farm and at the age of 17, while standing in line at a local movie theatre, she was discovered by modeling agency scout Kelly Streit. She is of German, French, Swedish and Norwegian descent. Tricia is best known for her work as a model in campaigns for Oil of Olay, Chanel's Cristalle perfume and some memorable Victoria's Secret lingerie assignments. As an actress, she portrayed Farrah Fawcett in a 2004 NBC movie of the week, and continues to play sexy cyborg Number 6 on the Sci Fi channel's revamped Battlestar Galactica series. Tricia's modeling career erupted in 1992 when the then 18-year-old won the Ford Supermodel of the World contest. She quickly rose to the top of the fashion game, appearing in major campaigns for Giorgio Armani, Saks Fifth Avenue and Victoria's Secret, to name but a few. She has appeared at shows for designers such as Oscar de la Renta, Claude Montana, Salvatore Ferragamo, Christian Dior, Givenchy, and Pierre Balmain. Helfer has also made the covers of fashion magazines like Elle (1993), Amica Italia (1996) and Cosmopolitan UK (1998). Tricia's rise in the world of acting hasn't been as rapid as her ascent through the ranks of the modeling business was. There have been some bright spots, such as the Battlestar Galactica miniseries, which premiered in 2003 to become the Sci Fi channel's third-most-watched program in their history. Her portrayal of Farrah Fawcett in the 2004 TV movie Behind The Camera: the Unauthorized Story of 'Charlie's Angels' may not have achieved equally impressive ratings, but it gave Tricia the opportunity to recreate the classic '70s Farrah poster, which hung in the bedrooms of thousands of males back in the day.

Katheryn Perry Beauti Single






Katheryn Perry Beauti Single
Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson (born October 25, 1984), better known by her stage name Katy Perry, is an American singer-songwriter and musician. Perry rose to fame in 2007 with her internet hit "Ur So Gay", and later scored in 2008 her breakthrough single "I Kissed a Girl".

Hudson was born and raised in Santa Barbara by Christian pastor parents and grew up listening only to gospel music. After earning a GED during her freshman year of high school, she began to pursue a music career. As Katy Hudson, she released a self-titled gospel album in 2001. In 2004, she recorded an album with production team The Matrix, but it was never released. After signing on with Capitol Music Group in 2007, she took on stage name Katy Perry and released her first mainstream album, One of the Boys.

Perry is known for her unconventional style of dress. Her style is often humorous, bright in color, and reminiscent of different decades, as well as her frequent use of fruit-shaped accessories, mainly watermelon, as part of her outfits.[38] Her dark hair is signature to her look, but, as the music video to "Ur So Gay" shows, her hair is naturally blonde and she dyed her hair and eyebrows a darker color. Having learned dancing at an early age, she fancied about having her own style. Perry's transformation into an artist began with fashion, inspired by American film actress Dominique Swain's portrayal in 1997 film adaptation of the novel Lolita. She defines her fashion "a bit of a concoction of different things". Johnny Wujek, Perry's stylist, described her style, upon meeting her for the first time, as "very colorful and vintage". Her fashion has caught the attention of designers, who were giving her nearly as much attention as her musical fans.

Happy feet

Hello,



I commented on my last week being a bit up and down... Keeping on the up side of things, I decided to stop at the shops last weekend. I got inspired after visiting the fashion display at the V&A museum, I guess.



Stopped at Urban Outfitters, where they had some good sales and it was unusually quiet for a Sunday.



These bright yellow platforms are by 'See by Chloe', I had already had my eye on them for a while... their original price was £255, reduced to £150, when I first tried them on a few weeks back.



I saw them on the sale section where there were a few pairs left, but I was actually trying a pair of gladiator sandals this time... I didn't really bother much because I knew they were more than I was willing to spend... When all of a sudden a horde of girls came, madly running after them.



On the spur of the moment, I grabbed a pair. It was my sweetest dream when I saw the price tag was down to £40, a screaming BUY ME price!



Needless to say, the 5 pairs that were left were gone within 10 minutes!

My feet was also happily greeted by my M&M! I think he's fallen in love too!

Bring the disco back!



Unbeatable bargain, don't you think?

See you soon.

Cool anatomy

Hello,

I just came across this super cute & rock and roll necklaces, they are handmade by Ms. Vanda from Lisbon, her cool label is called 'Paraphernalia'.

I adore the idea of the vintage illustrations being printed and cut out in acrylic, giving them a unique and cool visual effect.
All necklaces and bracelets are absolutely adorable.

Inspired by vintage images and magicians and as they quote on their website, they also seem to enjoy the bizarre and odd ways of beauty.

And so do I!
I just love those pieces from the Anatomica collection which are amazing!
They remind me of the NIN's video (Closer)... Especially the red heart and the ribcage. I never thought I would find anatomy so cool but now they are definitely on my wish list.
