Barbie and Ken's Amazing Wedding

While I as on the Glamour website (http://www.glamour.com/) today, I came across Barbie and Ken's wedding. The pictures are so fantastic I thought I should share them with you! Photographer Beatrice de Guigne (http://blog.beatrice-dg.com/?p=3810) came up with and shot this marvelous concept. I love her brilliant and creative images which can also be found at http://www.rocknrollbride.com/2011/08/barbie-ken-finally-get-married/. (Please do yourself a favour and check out the rest of these photos!)

Beatrice said, "Barbie & Ken were married at Faraway Castle, in Plasticity, The bride bought her dress from The Fairy Godmother shop and her shoes from the Cinderella Store. The groom wore a suit from The Prince Charming Emporium. The couple met more than 50 years ago (yes I know they look young). Barbie was tired of waiting so she asked Ken to get married.”







(I absolutely adore her hairstyle)

I absolutely can not wait for the next season of gossip girl to start! Here are a few set pictures, starring Leighton Meester in stunning printed Stella McCartney shorts (note that she is still wearing her engagement ring), gorgeous Liz Hurley (her character is rumoured to be hooking up with Nate this season), Ed Westwick, Blake Lively and Chace Crawford.



Love this waistcoat on Serena!

These days bows seem to be everywhere, but the hair bow is the biggest "do" trend at the moment; follow these ladies' example.

Stylishly Geek.


"Geeks" seem to be the largest trend for 2012 taking the "preppy" style a step further- making it more playful. With key items being bow ties, jerseys, suspenders, mismatched socks and glasses it allows men to start experimenting with fashion, colours and styles.




(Even the Kids are doing it)

Femininity is the word of the day!

As I was reading through Kim Gray's blog I came across the most gorgeous photograph I have ever seen and  thought I just have to share this with you. The photo is promoting an Elie Saab Perfume. To read more go to http://www.kimgray.co.za/2011/08/18/elie-saab-le-perfum/ .

1950s Celebration!


I recently celebrated my big 21st and wow what a party- everyone was so stylish. I am obsessed with the 1950s era and therefore chose that as my theme. The boys all looked like bad boy rock stars as the girls twirled around in their poodle skirts.

It was so much fun to design my own polka dot dress as well as my sister and her best friend's poodle skirts.
