Rookie

After Tavi Gevinson's launch of her e-zine Rookie, which reminds me alot of the print magazine 'Oh Comely' but aimed at adolescents, she is now releasing a book. This quirky style is being transferred to print! The debut issue will be called Rookie: Yearbook One and will feature the best content from the 'school year' spanning September 2011 to May 2012. The book will be full of Sonja Ahler's collages, Tavi's doodles and extras like a Meadham Kirchoff paper crown and a disc of previously unpublished contributions.
For some reason I really want this. It will be released online in September or in few bookstores. Hopefully the next trip to London fashion week I might find it along with a few more magazines to add to my collection.


Where is the sun?

Well so far summer is non-existent here in Newcastle. The other week I got trapped in traffic for 6 hours trying to get home from work as a huge storm hit. To be honest I love storms, I find it very calming watching the thunder and lightning. But we still have had no sun.......I think I need a holiday!

Mirror, Mirror - Chanel

Came across this beauty of a film which was imagined by Peter Phillips, the Creative Director of Chanel Make-Up, to showcase Chanel's reinvented Rouge Allure lipstick line
It has an amazing kaleidoscope effect which is almost hypnotizing along with a Indian soundtrack.
Ever wanted to dip your face in crystals?
