Tom Ford Fall 2010 Eyewear

Freja Beha Erichsen and Nicholas Hoult.

FBE, great as always. NH, as Tom Fords muse, has certainly come a long way from Skins. If you haven't seen it, A Single Man is a movie by TF starring NH, it is both beautiful in imagery and plot.

Nous Sommes, Paris

You thought the pieces from new Parisian label 'Nous Sommes' couldn't look any better? Well they do, around the neck of fashion god, Karl Lagerfeld. KLs formal blessing of the brand was captured below; rockin' the NS pendant made in his own likeness:

I mean, in the name of Chanel, the son and Vodka, KL just gets better and better with age.

Additional photos available at the Nous Sommes blog, here.

KL fantasies aside, I am still hanging out for a bit of Gaga between my fingers!

A Michael Jackson pendant also to be released.

Fittingly, the pieces come in black, white (and gold,) yeah yeah yeah.

Not available for purchase as yet, but coming soon!

Memory Tapes

OK, I have been ranting about Memory tapes [Weird Tapes and Memory Cassette] to anyone that will listen for a while now. I'm excited about them because are one of the greatest acts I have herd in a LONG time. Very original stuff.


Check out this live video below. It takes a while to kick in, but after the perfect build it will have your head spinning at about 1min50.



You can download a million great remixes at the memory tapes blog here.


And MORE IMPORTANTLY the original track "bicycles" here. Or, watch it below:

Acne Resort 2011

I dig this collection. Grounded in classicism, with an experimental edge.

Graz ‘Dorothy’ Glasses




SIDE NOTE:
Despite the fact that I hate that clear lensed glasses has become a 'big trend' and I think a few people out there need to recognise it might work a little against them then for them, it's great people are appreciating glasses and I'm really thankful for this trend for ONE REASON: It has resulted in the emergence of some really awesome optical glasses out there (as above!) for people who actually need glasses TO SEE! If you are a wearer of Optical glasses you will understand that finding a cool set of glasses has not always been easy!


None the less, nobody, nobody, can pull this look off by wearing frames without any lenses - excuse me, WTF is that about? I'm confused, 'why did you poke the lenses out of your sunglasses? I think I would even prefer makeshift GLAD wrap lenses.

Helen Mirren for NY magazine

Praise to Helen Mirren for the bold, natural and powerfully honest photos published in the New York Magazine - Madam Helen “I’m still the good girl who wants to be a bad girl…”

I, for one, think HM looks like a stone cold fox, regardless of age.

Helen Mirren's new film, Love Ranch, is equally as bold. Based on the true story of the infamous Mustang Ranch, the first legalised brothel in Nevada. Helen and Joe Pesci star as its husband-and-wife team owners. Helen's character falls in love with a younger man who comes to the ranch and he later becomes her lover. It looks nothing short of explosive. To be released 30 June 2010.

Love Ranch Trailer:

Rock on, Helen.
