A World Of Interiors...



From the relaxed with Bloomingville - to the richly textured and ever so sublime with World Of Interiors... Don't you just love this magazine? It's eccentricity - it's total over the top nature - it's nod to crusty old world charm? I salivate every time a new issue hits the stand - there's something so yesteryear about it all - it brings a tear to my eye. Here are pics from some of my favourite covers... Of course, there's a whole world more to show you... But this is a sunny Sunday beginning...

Vogue Australia September 2010: Catherine McNeil


To celebrate her fourth Vogue Australia cover for our September issue (on sale Wednesday), VogueTV went behind the scenes of photographer Max Doyle's shoot with supermodel Catherine McNeil.

McNeil fever has hit Vogue, with the model also appearing in the fashion shoot A Fine Romance, photographed by Nicole Bentley and style by Victoria Collison. Perfect timing as the Australian heads home to walk the runway for deparment store David Jones alongside fellow Vogue cover girls Abbey Lee and Nicole Trunfio.

A Fellow Cowboy Boot Lover

Photobucket

I have and always will love a cowboy boot. I don't care if they are in or out of fashion for me they are a classic item of footwear that I will wear forever. Whenever I wear cowboy boots I am always asked where they are from I met a fellow cowboy boot lover at work the other day she stopped me in the corridor and asked me where I had got my boots from we then both had a fabulous conversation about cowboy boots she has been wearing them since she was 15 she is in her early twenties now and her beloved cowboy boots had met there end and she was looking to replace them. I told her about Spartoo and with there final reductions and up to 70% off I am sure she will find another pair to replace them.

The ones I was wearing were by Buffalo I love the mahogany colour with the gold studs so unusual and striking and they are so comfortable and are made from the most gorgeous leather with a slight destressed look.

Some more stunning cowboy boots by Buffalo so if like me and my fellow collegue you love cowboy boots I highly recommend checking out Spartoo's sale and grabing yourself a bargain.

Behind-The-Scenes: Jaeger F/W 10.11 campaign

Take a look behind the scenes on the shoot for Jaeger's A/W 2010 campaign. Starring model of the moment Abbey Lee alongside Imogen Morris Clarke and Ollie Edwards, it was shot in the London Eye, making it as inherently British as the brand itself.The striking black and white images were apparently inspired by a Richard Avedon photograph of a woman flying over the Eiffel Tower in a helicopter. So, alongside the luxe coats, shearling boots and pretty printed dresses you can see the sprawling landscape of the capital in the background.

Daily dose of Sonam & Aisha gang

Today, we have only Sonam and that also her twitter pic:-)



Sonam wore a sequins Jacket dress by Vizyon. From what I know of Vizyon, its a brand that brings together international designers in India and its not a designer's name.. I love sequins but a sequined jacket dress is tough thing to wear and those shoes aren't helping. Dont they ruin something that could have been really edgy and chic? That dress needs heels and an attitude to match..What do u guys think - yay or nay?

UK Vanity Fair September 2010: Lady Gaga by Nick Knight


Spite the fact I'm not a fan of Lady Gaga, musically and non-musically, for some reason she annoys me. I have to say Nick Knight did a great job as usual photographing her, as I really like the cover, the way the hair is flowing to the peace sign and make-up.

Vintage Playsuit Ebay, Hat New Look, Cycling Shorts H&M, Wedges Ebay

I brought this playsuit from ebay last year. I had it shortened as it was to the knee not a very flattering length I love the print as parts of it look like leopard print. To give it a twist I teamed it with those shoes that I cant walk in again.

Had a good day shopping yesterday I brought this gorgeous Topshop shirt which I totally love and this leopard print bustier which was a bargain £7.00 from TK Maxx and it goes perfectly under the shirt. My brother was round when I was taking the pictures and he was like yuck leopard print I love leopard print but it does seem to get bad press I explained to him that when worn the right way it looks amazing. I did not sell it to him but I love it.

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Who: Jacqueline Fernandez
Where: Gillette Mach3 India gaming Championship 2010

Love the architectural pleats and the color of this dress abut Jacqueline had to spoil it with those shoes..

Who: Neha Dhupia
Where: Gaurav Gupta Aza event

After seeing Neha in one flawless appearance after another, this one is really boring and disappointing. Something is really throwing me off..too matchy?? pant color??

Who: Kangana Ranaut
Where: (L) Eclipse special screeing, (R) Once upon a time screening

Going to movies is not a major thing but still Kangana could have tried harder than just wearing her Grandma's clothes...

Daily dose of Sonam & Aisha gang

Who: Sonam Kapoor
Where: (L) The Twilight Saga: Eclipse - Mumbai Premiere, (R) At Fever FM

So what do you think? Is she forgiven for yesterday's appearance? Sonam decided to do classy and chic today. The stunning blue dress is from CUE - a label by Rohit Gandhi and Rahul Khanna, which she wore with clutch and pumps. The simple but elegant black dress is from Whistles, accessorized with CD bag and black pumps...love the blue dress and CD bag:-)

Who: Ira Dubay
Where: (L) The Twilight Saga: Eclipse - Mumbai Premiere, (R) At Fever FM

Two different events, same exact pose - the neck is titled at the same angle!! Someone has been practicing in front of the mirror:-)
I think I am in love with the divinely draped Varun Bahl nude asymmetrical dress. Ira wisely didn't over-accessorize and completed her look with Grey printed peep-toes. Her Fever FM is nothing to write about..


Who: Amrita Puri
Where: (L) The Twilight Saga: Eclipse - Mumbai Premiere, (R) At Fever FM

Wow, I am really impressed!! What is the budget for this movie's promotion?? And the sidekicks are better dressed than the Star:P
I am having a tough time deciding which one I like better. The bright green bandage-style dress by Elise Overland or the floral print pink/purple dress..green, no, pink...no, green..


Who: Lisa Haydon
Where:The Twilight Saga: Eclipse - Mumbai Premiere


One is lonely number:( Lisa was not present for the FM promotions but made it up at the premiere in an elegant Mandira Wirk dress with tulip hemline. Looks like a laser cut pattern and the shoes are really cool.

So which dress did u like best?

Dress John Zack via Ebay, Wedges Pied a Terre, Watch Ebay, Rings H&m & Claires Accessories

I off shopping today and if I do not find anything there are some things I want on ASOS. My friend gave me these shoes and I love them the colour is perfect with cream and I brought myself three pairs of these leopard print knee high socks from H&M they go with everything and I cant stop wearing them. My snake ring is from Claires Accessories and a bargain £4.50 I have not been in there for ages and was very surprised by how many nice things they have.

My boots that I spent the last two days waiting for. I went for the bigger size in the end I want them for work and seeing as I am on my feet eight hours a day they need to be comfortable. The second addition to my A/W wardrobe check out Nexts shoe collection here they have a gorgeous selction I know I will be back for more.

Update on Rhea's outfit : As per her tweet 'zara top, zara pants and shoes from ports 1961.oh and dads watch!'

Who: Sonam Kapoor
Where: Promoting Aisha at 98.3FM Radio Mirchi

There is nothing specific awful about this outfit, its just there is too much going on with cropped top, jacket and pink high waisted pants. The bare midriff doesn't quite work for me. A case of trying to hard...

Just got a tweet from Sonam that her whole ensemble is from Topshop..

Who: Ira Dubey
Where: Promoting Aisha at 98.3FM Radio Mirchi

I like the print of this dress. Reminds me of 'Color by Numbers' book u get for the kids - and she has all the colors hanging at her waist, nice!! Not sure why is standing in such an awkward manner. U think Sonam is twisting her arm for wearing a better outfit..LOL, just kidding....

Who: Rhea Kapoor
Where: Promoting Aisha at 98.3FM Radio Mirchi

Cute camouflage print paired with black paints and pink shoes..Do you think pink shoes work here or should she have worn black?
