I love M.I.A's latest video for XXXO. It is so weird to see blantant direct references to my teen years on myspace, facebook and having poor quality screensavers on my mobile phone. Instead of repelling me the graphics actually work and make me smile. It's Mega check it out.

When I saw this print by Grafisches Büro I just had to laugh. What a great way to bring a bit of laughter into everyone's lives...

Crazy Dream World

2010-02-25T10:09:00.000-08:00

I have just come back from a University Course trip to Tokyo and O.M.G was that crazy! Everything is so different over there, it is the ultimate urban dream. Everything is obssessively perfect making it seem so unreal. The architecture was incredible, I loved Prada's glass prism building and the Omotesando underwater style shopping mall was very theraputic for shoppers. The standrad of politeness was exremely high with impeccable customer service in every shop you went into whether it was high or low end. Even the people looked perfect, they were all immaculately dressed, nobody looked overweight, or unwell with acne or imperfections on their faces. Surprisingly the food was not like chinese food and was based more around seafood and noodles. My natural urge for diet coke had to be squandered as pop is non existent in Tokyo. I have come back feeling alot healthier, and found a new love for sushi. Well I hope the photos conjure up at least a small amount of the crazyness that Tokyo is and its magical charm that you will easily fall in love with

Soft hip hop sounds

Uffie Uffie Uffie - is my latest music crush. She was being interviewed on a late night radio one show when I heard her first bangin tune "Pop your glock" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1v2PtoxwNo. Her relaxed style of rapping and the electro background music make this tune effortlessly cool. The sultry american/parisian based rapper can count Mr Ozio, Justice and SebastiAn in her musical gang so no wonder her sound is 'freaky hot'!

Wow how stunning does Hannah Holman look in this issue of Vogue Russia. Those tattooed arms make a lovely contrasting frame around her. Great shoot by Alasdair McLellan....gosh those eyes are just piercing at me!

Love American Apparel's latest "get in with the new, and stay true to the old, too" collection. I have my day night outfits sorted out right here, soooo loving that sheer navy look! I think I maybe starting an obssesion for all things navy, it seems so much classier than black, and really compliments my tanned complexion hehe.

31 Rue Cambon

Chanel has just launched its first magazine! If only I could get my hands on it! Oliver Zahm from Purple magazine has been working with Chanel to produce this extension of the brand. The meaning of the name '31 Rue Cambon' originates from Chanel's first store boutique - authentic and very effective. There has been many fashion magazines launched this year, but it is only those that have a strong distinctive look and emphasise on being long lasting instead of weekly throwaway magazines that survive. The Reccession is a challenging time to make new launches, but if your product is right and there is a honest need for it, then success will come.

Dreamy Works of Ellen Kooi

I stumbled across this beautiful image by Ellen Kooi in Hotshoe magazine (#154). Born in the Netherlands, she never studied photography but developed a fascination for the relationship between bodies and space. This image called siblini-rim (2006) is incredibly dream like, the young girl looks enchanting leaping through watery dismal landscape. As I am currently researching into launching a kids fashion magazine, this will be influencial for photoshoot stories.
