When I first veiwed this video I wanted to post it right away, I did, and then erased it immediately after reading the words rapper Wanga says in Xhosa " I dont want to go to the bush with you, dont touch my penis im not a gay, this penis is for the girls, my penis is clean, my penis is strong....." I took the words as homophobic. Later I learned Xhosa culture is "un-fokking-believeably homophobic"  in an interveiw with Ninja from Die Antwoord. This is the interveiw which swayed my mind enough to still post this visually creative video and beats. Although I must say i do not encourage the use of the word gay as a derogatory term.

Sigur Rós - Olsen Olsen

Yes its a boy and I love him.

Up and coming model Andrej Pejic, a 19 year old Sibirian.. I love his look with his extreme androgyny, he is so pretty. Looking forward to seeing more of him.

Rooney Mara.

I didn't get a chance to see the film yet, but have heard great reviews about The Girl With A Dragon Tattoo. Rooney Mara, the films lead actress makes an incredible transformation into her character Lisbeth Salander. Here on the cover of Febuary's W magazine she was styled as Lisbeth and you will see what I mean. I love the wig they use for her character, and if I was to cut my hair short again I would want it to be a bad-ass cut like this!!

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS - Best of Series 1



If you love Fashion, and a good laugh then you will love Absolutely Fabulous! The show is about the shenanigans of Patsy and Eddy. Patsy a once great model and Eddy is the editor of a fashion mag. They spend their time shopping, drinking, doing drugs and trying to get skinny, have sex and, sometimes, Eddy goes to work. The show has been rumoured to be coming back sometime this year. I am so excited. Although it wont be with the same characters as the sitcom, it should be good.

Street Art!

With over 300 artists in the index, www.unurth.com is a great site to discover street art from around the world, captured in the past 2 years.

Some of my favorite street art comes from Banksy a London Graffiti street artist. www.banksy.co.uk His art shows up on walls around the world, and painted pieces have been known to fetch up to $576,000 US.


Another artist I enjoy following is Mark Jenkins. www.xmarkjenkinsx.com Most of his art pieces are instillation's made from packing tape, sometimes he creates real life people too, which are very interesting. His art has been shown in galleries around the world.






Last but not least here is Aakash Nihalani, a New York artist. www.aakashnihalani.com


On his site Aakash writes: My street work consists of mostly isometric triangles and squares. I selectively place these graphics around New York to highlight the contours and elegant geometry of the city itself. I'm trying to offer the people a chance to step into a different New York than they are used to seeing and in turn momentarily escape routine scheduled lives. I think this is a great statement on why street art is so great. It gives a break from it all and allows us to imagine through the eyes of the artist. Its not in a gallery or on a wall in someones house. Its on our streets where everyone can see it, where it supposed to be so hopefully it can have that effect on us all.

Sherbet Orange, Mint Green and Cotton Candy colored dreams.


Every spring pastels are back in our closets. This spring its not just on the runway, as seen in designers such as Burberry's 2010 spring collection. Its been revived in makeup and shown wonderfully in hair design. A beautiful example is Sassoon's Laser collection. The colors fading in into the cuts is so subtle and beautiful.




The make-up look is fresh for the day and can be stricking at night with a couple swipes of the black mascara and a bright red lip, immaculately lined of course ;) The eyeshadow colors are whimsical and youthful. Somehow reminiscent of Alexander McQueen's collaboration with MAC Fall 07.
