Perfume Advertisements
Stills from Miss Dior Chérie advertisement, directed by Sophia Coppola
I have this strange little fixation with beautiful perfume commercials (and beautifully made commercials generally). Some day, I hope to work as a Production Designer for film, but I also study and work in visual effects and motion graphics, which tends to make me naturally lean towards to visuals over storytelling – not a good thing, I know! I think this is the reason I’m attracted to the concept of commercials as simple, little bursts of ideas that are presented exceptionally beautifully.

Pretty Tights
I’m not an avid trend-follower, but I love unique tights as a trend. It’s such an easy, affordable way to keep your outfits relevant and fashion-concious. And, of course, super cute.

Alexander McQueen, Paris Fashion Week
When people talk about high-end fashion being ridiculous, crazy or over-the-top, they’re usually talking about someone like Alexander McQueen. While ‘wearable’ certainly isn’t a word that springs to mind when I think of his collections, I don’t dislike them. Like art, I think fashion sometimes takes itself a little bit too seriously, so I tend to appreciate the controversy brought about by McQueen’s shows. And with fashion becoming so re-used and re-worked, it’s nice to see something the feels original.
Continue reading to see some highlights from Alexander McQueen’s Spring/Summer show in Paris. If nothing else, you have to admit that his latest collection is an example of amazing craftsmanship (and some amazing shoes!)

Shoe Showcase, Milan Fashion Week
Socks and heels at Marni, yeah baby! But really, there’s something about the softness and blonde wood that makes me love these; the whole colour pallette is gorgeouss. I’m totally endeared to the opened-toe-shoes-plus-socks look, even! Continue reading for more shoes from Milan Fashion Week.
