My Favourite November 2010

2010-11-10T17:14:00.002+01:00

So, this is my fantastic it-piece for Novemeber which I'd like to own but won't be able to buy it.
It's designed by the british designer Matthew Williamson and I have to say, altough it's very un-fashionable, it's kind of last season. He created a new collection out of all collections of the last twelve years. And I love it.

Big Fat LaW-Update No 3: Georgia May Jagger

2010-10-22T19:09:00.006+02:00

Yesterday I just noticed that we've never blogged about Georgia May Jagger. She's the daughter of Mick Jagger and American supermodel Jerry Hall - and she won the 2009 British Fashion Award 'Model of the Year'.
I kind of like her since I know the fact that she's only 5'7" which is my height too. (So maybe I'll also get model. Haha.)
And her other "flaws" she, e.g. the tooth gap and her measurements(81-66-89). And did I mentioned that she was born in January 1992? Une fille très sympa..

Long turns short

2010-10-10T16:15:00.007+02:00

Due to the fact that Alie doesn't blog anything, it's kind of my turn, I think. And while I'm at blogging about hairstyles, I can go on once more.
Spotted at the Chanel Show on Paris Fashion Week:
Keira Knightley, who just cut her beautiful long hair into a short french bob:

What do you say? I like both, the long hair (with the great fringe she used to have) was beautiful, but her new hairdo looks amazing, too. I can hardly say what looks subptimal.

Dark turns blonde

2010-10-03T14:53:00.011+02:00

There are some models who just dyed their hair: From brown or black to blonde.

Iris Strubegger:

Abbey Lee Kershaw:

modelinia, weheartit, models.com, tfs

What do you think is better - before or after?
(Acutally, I think Abbey's blonde goes great to her skin and her style, but Iris' blonde looks kind of strange.)

Inspiration

2010-09-29T16:11:00.003+02:00

I really like this picture. There's model Lily Aldridge in it (who is engaged to Kings of Leon's leadsinger Caleb Followill, by the way) and it was taken for Nylon magazine. I think the "just a long shirt and no trousers"-look is pretty stylish (if the shirt is long enugh or you're wearing denim shorts to it) and Lily's legs are stunning.
The short interview is also cute (if you can read it, it might be too small).

Your turn!

2010-09-27T17:08:00.007+02:00

Hey guys!

I have to say that I actually have no idea how many are reading our blog. I mean, I don't care, because if you like it you can read it and we post no matter how many of you are following it. Even if there's nobody :D

Anyway, I just wanted to ask for you opinion.

What do you think of our blog?

Anything you would improve?

Which posts do you like/don't like?

What should we post more often?

Anything else you'd like to tell us?

We are thankful for every opinion.

via fashioncopious.typepad.com

This editorial with Abbey appeared in The Gentlewoman. I have to be honest, I always thought blush is a totally unnecessary make-up item and then I saw this ed and changes my opinion completely. I think it gives Abbey an absolutely different apperance and image on every picture. Well, it also has to do a lot with her hair style and stuff, but anyway. Nice.

Sweet 16! (finally)

Congratulations!

Model of the moment

2010-09-22T19:57:00.010+02:00

She is 16 years old, comes from Hungary and is already modeling over three years. Although she is just 171cm tall and that's very small compared to other models in fashion business, she was booked very often the last few seasons (e.g. Louis Vuitton, Nina Ricci, Giles and Loewe) and of course she appears a lot in editorials (besides the editorials I mention below also in Harper's Bazaar and other Vogues).
I have to say, I totally adore her eyes and her lips, she looks so much older and she is beautiful on every single picture, I think.
Let's see some pics!
(You might know her, especially because Alie posted a pic of her in the last LaW-post.)

Above: Barbara in the French "Jalouse" magazine, June 2010.
Below plus the very first pic on the top: Barbara in Vogue Spain, September 2010 issue (i have it!)

Above: On the cover of L'Officiel Paris (one of my fav french mags).

So, what do you think of her?

By now, Custo Barcelona has made my absolutely favourite collection of the NYFW. Well, I can't actually judge by now, because there are still two days left, but I'm pretty sure it won't change. I'm totally in love with all these colourful feathers and so oh-so-pretty-dreamy dresses. See yourself:

Things on my mind

2010-09-12T22:03:00.010+02:00

Look at this girl:

Helloo? How can you be so gorgeous and fresh and everything? And how can you make clothers look THIS good? And I don't know who she is. Do you?
Another girl to look at:

via yeahabbeybaby.tumblr Huch, Abbey? Went platinum? * * * So, here in our little German town school starts again tomorrow. It's such a shame. In the last days you realize how GREAT holidays actually are and that you never ever want to go back to school. Or at least, I realized that.

But: There are also good things in a new school year like buying new school stuff, get a new agenda, and and and...basically it's a new start and I like new starts. And I'm really looking forward to "school shopping" Anyway, so next school year starts tomorrow and everything's going to be different.
PS: Thank you for the advice on the shoes. I ordered the lace up pair, finally. I'm going to show you them as soon as they arrive, which is probably in a week :)

Mélanie Thierry

2010-09-10T12:53:00.006+02:00

oh and the new Katy Perry record, I personally haven't checked it out yet but I'll do for sure.

Some other things:
I am very sorry that the songs aren't with hearts in front of them as usually, but for some unknown reason the hearts don't show up when I copy+paste them.
AND: I have learned how to say "you're welcome" in French! My friends and I actually always say "Tu es bienvenue" to each other (as a joke, of course, but we didn't know what else to say) so now I know that it's
"Je vous en prie"

Some new models I notice all the time lately.

Anastasia Krivosheeva
178cm; 80-59-89
Born on June 21st, 1991 in Moscow

What makes me say that she isn't that new is that A/W 08/09 was her first season and she already walked for Blumarine and Vivienne Westwood.

Alisa Bachurina175cm; 82-60-87Born on May 29th, 1990 in Russia
She already had some editorials and walked in some shows, but nothing too big yet. Which is a shame if you ask me. Caroline Brasch Nielsen 179cm, 77-59-84 Born 1994 in Denmark
She already did ads for Balenciaga (with Freja Beha, Karen Elson and Meghan Collison by Steven Meisel) and walked in her first season (A/W 10/11) for Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Miu Miu, Ysl (...) and opened Valentino

New things

2010-08-15T17:08:00.009+02:00

First: The layout...tadaaa! Hope you like it. And if not then...well, then you don't. I like it. It's not 100% finished yet, but it won't change a lot anymore.

Then: Yes, I was ill (and probably I'm still, a bit) but I went to Frankfurt yesterday, anyway. And maybe I shouldn't have because I'm feeling not that great again, but actually it was worth it. Perfect, warm day and new clothers! NEW CLOTHERS! ON SALE! .... I was ill???

Yeah, you may take a look:

1. Cos, 12 € was 40€ (it has shoulder pads)

2. Primark, 11€ (it's a dress, but it's the details that are interesting)

3. Primark 15€ (tube dress, with cut outs at the back)

4. Hair things...Primark, 2€ + 1,50€

Rather be dead than cool.

The Style Registry

Found this old Yves Saint Laurent campaign and it showed again how much fashion changes. And that it never changes. I still think that this campaign is very beautiful but we would be pretty surprised if we saw that in today's fashion magazines. It reminds me a bit of some Burda sewing patterns. It also reminds me of Pradas video which I saw on WFC some days ago.

I don't really think I like it, but the style is actually similar to that almost 30years old YSL campaign. I guess that this Aquarell-drawing thing and animation is becoming really popular.

So. Since Pinkcookie thinks I'm a lazy cow and don't post anything (yeeah...look, proof: she's arabella90 and I'm aadwys)

I have an excuse: I'm watching skins all night long, the time I actually post. Which means that Skins holds me off posting. And that means that I'll post something about Skins eventually. If pinkcookie thinks that I adore Freja's "heroin-chic-look" (btw I don't think it's heroin-chic but whatever) then I really have to adore Effy Stonem. Oh well, and I kinda do.

So...and who's mad at me because I don't post? C'mon, this series is super addicting.

Rosie

2010-07-30T21:26:00.007+02:00

If you are a faithful LaW-reader, you maybe remember our first post: It was about Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, one of the international topmodels.
And now, one and a half years later, there's another post:
In the past, I liked her - she was an ordinary fashion model (sometimes many, sometmes less clothes). But in the meantime (is this just my imagination?) she changed into an underwear (or nude) model, her lips look always huge and she's - at least to my taste- a little bit too sexy and sometimes really bitchy, all in all too much.
So nobody is astonished about her part in the movie Transformers 3, in which she repleaces Megan Fox.
Some photos to let you form an opinion about her:

Surprise, surprise... it's Freja.
There's hardly any campaign, cover or editorial without her. Especially these days, though her career started already years ago (yep, I read the article about it in the current British Vogue issue). She's even on two August 2010 covers (french and british). And here are the other campaigns and wherever she appears at the moment.
(By the way, Alie adores Freja's androgynous-heroin-chic-look.)

In the following you see all the current Freja-pics:

This model is called "Madame Butterfly 150 Satin Pumps" and the heel is about 15cm.
Unfortunately they cost 751$ and I don't have so much money just to spend it on shoes. So this is my new inspiration...;)

Macarons

2010-06-22T17:35:00.004+02:00

Sorry for Not-blogging some weeks, but it was so much around and so... well, this blog is called "Macarons". Macarons are little cookies from France which taste great and look sweet. Violeccia and I tried to bake a few, just to have fun. And we had.
Unfortunately they either look delicous or they taste delicious, but we weren't capable of joining it.
So I post some food-inspiration of Macarons and some recipe-links:

Recipe-links:
For the first time, in english: here
Others, but french ones (easy to understand) are at puregourmandise.com

From Moscow with love

2010-06-06T14:29:00.001+02:00

Well yeah, I'm back again. First, have to tell you that the Vienna airport is the biggest mess ever and the people there are just very very unfriendly but luckily we were there just because of the transfair and didn't have to stay there long.
Anyway, Moscow was great! You know, I love this place a lot, maybe because I spent there 5 years of my life. Haha that kinda sounds cheesy. Whatever.
photos: Austrian Airlines tomato juice and sandwich, my new lipgloss, the view from 10 000meters, my favourite cake called "a guest from the forest", some other sweets, pancakes, Chanel in Russian - I though it was funny, monster strawberry, salad made of chicken and pear and pancakes again, Russian "Borodinskij" bread. best.bread.ever.

So, Moskow is something. The only thing that bothers me is actually that EVERYTHING is like twice/trice/... as expensive as here in Germany AND that you look like a dumbass if you don't wear high heels and mini skirts. Sorry, fact.

Holidays with us

2010-05-24T09:03:00.001+02:00

Hello you all!
Pinkcookie and I have holidays right now, which means 2 weeks no school and basically no work at all. She is right now in Cannes and I arrived in Moscow yesterday. I guess that she doesn't have any internet connection at all but I do. Well, stupid me didn't think of taking neither my Macbook with me nor a cable for the camera (since my grandma has a laptop but I can't connect it with my cam), which means that I'm not even able to share photos with you guys until 6th of June.
My plans are actually getting a bit of a tan, go shopping and eat my favourite cake (which I did yesterday. Yummy)
Guess pinkcookies plans aren't that different from mine, but it will be easier for her to achieve the tan thing. Anyway, I try to buy a cable. :D love.

Photoshop-Victim (1): Gisele Bundchen

2010-05-05T20:17:00.003+02:00

Okay, Gisele Bundchen looks kind of amazing on the cover of Vogue Korea May 2010 (Photographer: Nino Munoz), but I needed nearly 10 minutes to identify her.

So I called this post "Photoshop-Victim" and if I see other photos which look more than just a little bite retouched, I'll post them as one.

Vogue Paris May 2010 Cover

2010-04-18T19:04:00.005+02:00

Many cover"girls" on the Vogue Paris May 2010 issue: Meryl Streep, Kate Winslet, Gwyneth Paltrow, Julianne Moore, Penelope Cruz and Naomi Watts.
Photographed by Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin.

The issue Penelopé Cruz was co-designer of the Vogue and so she's on all three covers (below: wth Bono / Meryl Streep).

By the way, it's surprising not to see models on the cover. Is it just a commercial turn?
