Shading option for my tattoo....comments please....xxxx

My beautiful friend is currently on her honeymoon through Mexico and took this pic, which i think deserved a post...I feel this way about many, many clothes in store....and some its the complete opposite..

.

I'd like to take a moment to talk about Stefano Pilati... by all accounts and from what I saw on the modern interweb as my invitations to the Paris shows keep getting lost! Australia Post! Stefano's Latest collection for the glorious house of Yves Saint Laurent was just about as YSL as you can get without the man designing it himself from the grave

Case & point....hello back.. hot!

And how dapper does the man look taking his bow....casual, smart, confident and very very sexy...

I was extremely lucky this year in June to be in Paris and be able to attend the YSL retrospective at the Petit Palais. An amazing exhibition show casing some 700 garments over YSL's career...the highlight for me was the floor to ceiling wall of mannequins in his seasonal interpretation of the simple black tuxedo. Black mannequins on a black wall all dress in black with random flashing single fairy lights to break the intimidation...amazing.

While I'm on about the Paris shows and my disappointment of missing them again this year, i want to spare another moment to rave about the genius that is Alber Elbaz at Lanvin...I want to be a girl to wear these masterpieces....then i see the menswear collection that Lucas Ossendrijver has created this season and I'm happy I didn't go through with it.

His draped aesthetic that celebrates women's shapes and their elegance evolves season after season and keeps us wanting more. The addition of body con horizontal pleating (a nod to Izzey Miyake) this season keeps this brand moving, without straying from Elbaz's vision of Lanvin's eponymous label.

Check this guy Kobi Levi's blog. He's a shoes designer from Jerusalem...he has his own menswear line and has does freelance work and collaborations for Israeli and International companies...

"In my artistic footwear design the shoe is my canvas. The trigger to create a new piece comes when an idea, concept and/or an image comesto mind. The combination of the image and footwear creates a new hybrid and the design/concept comes to life. The piece is a wearable sculpture..."

Unfortunately I missed out on yesterdays outfit which was a total winner...today's is a little more conservative, but again its all about the shoes...my lil' Pocahontas numbers...and my new washed linen shirt....and I continue my addiction to poo catchers...

FCKH8 - Straight Talk on Gay Marriage (MIRROR)

As well as being a total fashion diva - obviously. i also have a social conscience...i love this campaign on a subject close to my heart - well theoretically - i'm not getting married - actually i'm single - BUT! I want all those other faggots out there in a relationship to have the opportunity (notice how i said faggot? I'm allowed to because i am a "gay man")

So this was the shoe outting outfit...

In addition to my fantastic new shoes i'm going to scour the world for these Salvatore Ferragamo Glasses...YUM YUM

Yesterday I bought THE HOTTEST shoes that are going to complete my summer look like you wouldn't believe...I wore them for half the day today and got blisters...but i WILL persevere as shoes like this do not come around every day...

They are vintage...I picked them up from Shaperre on Chapel Street.

Thank you Melissa. xxx

So my friend just emailed me these shit hot shoes from the current collections...a little bit of heaven on the end of my legs....

Um...are you joking? Fucking a-m-a-z-i-n-g....

I've been toying with the idea of a tattoo for hmmm, probably 10 years....i've finally designed it...

i kinda think its the shit...what do you think?

I've recently begun a love affair...with my thoughts... of Garry Graham and his recent collection shown at New York fashion week...
