Jean Paul Gaultier and Diet Coke

You're probably already aware that Jean Paul Gaultier took over the realms at Diet Coke as creative director, yes even Diet Coke needs a creative director.
You've also probably seen the adverts for this pairing over the past couple of weeks which feature the memorable Diet Coke puppets in an array of mishaps that can only be solved with some Diet Coke and Gaultier's magic touch.

Today the ad campaign and bottle designs were launched, as a rather large fan of Diet Coke and JPG I will be aiming to get my hands on all 3 designs. One is kitted out in JPG trademark Breton stripes whilst another is reminisant of his infamous perfume bottle with the final design being made up of mock tattoos.

Which design do you like best?

David Beckham July Elle

It has been announced today that David Beckham will be the first male to have a solo cover in the magazines history.

I must say I'm probably one of the only females who sees nothing in David Beckham- even these half naked shots for H&M bored me, sorry Becks. I'm a bit disappointed with the choice of male but he is quite the British legend so I guess they're keeping in key with the Jubilee.

What are your opinions on Becks being on the cover on ELLE? Would you rather see him with Victoria? Who did you hope for on the cover?

Dot by Marc Jacobs



I'm a massive lover of the Marc Jacobs perfumes, between my mother and I we own all the various versions of his perfumes with my brother owning Bang, so upon discovering a brand new perfume and not just a variation of previous scents I was very excited.

Whilst I love the scents of his perfumes and the bottles, I'm a little tired of the ad campaigns with a childlike model posing with the bottle- its a somewhat dated and wouldn't make me look twice at it with a magazine.

The bottle however is lovely and looks like a ladybird so will hopefully find a place on my shelf in the near future.

Inspiration











Just a few of my favourite street style snaps from the past month, as prints and tailoring have been my main lusts it felt right to feature these amazing images to show why or maybe just enhance my lusts.

British Design 1948-2012: Innovation in the Modern Age


Back in 1948 London hosted the Olympic Games after the Second World War; they took place at a time when the city was over coming devastation by bombing and economic crisis. Now in 2012 London is preparing to host the games once more, a lot has changed in those 64 years and British Design plans to explore these changes.

The exhibition plans to explore the nature of British design since 1948, spread over three galleries it will look at the changes to buildings, objects and ideas. Designers featured will have been trained, born or based in Britain.

The Exhibition will look at how Britain has reacted to economic, political and cultural changes to remain innovative and a leader in creativity. It will explore not only the importance of design for Britain’s development visually but also how it has shaped the people of Britain and how we live today.

British Design 1948-2012 runs at the V&A from March 31st till 12th August and tickets start at £8 for students.

Stella McCartney Fall 2012


Stella McCartney’s latest collection is just perfect, I’ll be the first one to admit that once upon a time I overlooked her as a designer-forgive me Stella, I was wrong.

There were bright snippets of colour amongst a wash of greys and browns, just enough for autumn weather, cheery but not out of place for the colder months. Pieces were well tailored and structured in heavy knits and tweeds pushing the collection into a very smart, slightly androgynous state with wide leg trousers and shirts tucked in showing the models waists.

Print was used lightly, most affectively covered up and peaking through oversized coats and blazers, it was an accent rather than a statement. Whilst towards the end of the collection tighter fitted tops gave the impression of inspiration from surfer wetsuits, with the use of high necks and colour combinations.

Models wore blue mascara whilst the rest of the makeup was kept plain with hair swept back into a clean simple bun. The makeup mirrored the collection perfectly, basic with a punch of colour to keep the look fresh.
