Cher: The early days

I admire Cher. She has always taken pride in her looks. Lately, she is over-the-top but still captivating. In the 60s and 70s, she was really breathtaking. Long and lean with hair noir. She has never been afraid to take sartorial risks and therefore remains iconic.

Vintage Gloves

As the weather cools, I’m really into gloves, particularly wrist length, vintage or otherwise. They are easily findable on ebay and a fashionable way to overcome the chills.

Beauty in Black & White

The clothes, make-up and accessories enchanted me in this editorial.

Pretty, Pretty Purple

To me, this is glorious. Purple is such a lovely color with so many hues and varieties. It’s just as beautiful in the fall/winter as it is in the spring/summer. The surrounding Jacarandas obviously bring the color to life (and make me desperate for spring) but the color itself is also moving. Purple can be worn by people of all complexions and hair colors. I especially want to mix a lavender blouse with a plum pant. I’m even partial to a dark violet smoky eye.

Emma Enchanted

emma watson6 Emma Watson for <em>Vogue UK</em> December 2010 by Mario Testino

I’m a fan of Emma Watson’s. She seems to have a good head on her shoulders and has grown up to be lovely young woman. Plus I love the pixie cut. If I were contractually obligated not to cut my hair, I’d probably chop it too.

The High Life

Holiday-wear. If you lived down under. Or if you do not care about the elements, which sounds more like me. Wearing a gorgeous dress with galoshes is totally my steez.
