Carousel -- Week Ending 16th March 2007
[ 17 March 2007 ]
Apparently, my short blonde haircut is all the rage. ...Even Pink is doing it! (Ugh!)
I Tokyomade for a whole lot of reasons, but at the moment I am thrilled that they translate the best of the Japanese fashion magazines! Spring style in Zipper magazine. (I buy the magazines myself, but I can’t read them, so…!)
The shoes in this Vogue Paris shoot are incredible. Nice photographs too, but the outfits reek of the 1980s & quite frankly, I was born then, I’m not really interested in slicked-back hair & hammer pants.
Meg from Faking Good Breeding did a guest post over at The Bargain Queen which I think is great. Discount designer labels: bargain or fashion mistake? The Stella McCartney collection went on sale at Target on Monday morning & it was craziness. I’m so glad I didn’t go. I got really excited about it initially but when I saw the collection online, I remembered that I wouldn’t wear Stella’s designs if someone paid me! So not my style.
Also, Faking Good Breeding is having a competition to win $40 to spend at Sephora! Woohoo! I’m about to enter & you should too. (If you live somewhere Sephora won’t ship to, she’ll make it an Amazon voucher.) The site is really great & Meg is doing a very good job with it.
A new fragrance from Lolita Lempicka! Available from May 15th. I’m so excited, I LOOOOVE Lolita Lempicka’s fragrances. Listen to this: “A fragrance exuding the beauty of the ocean coupled with the myth of the mermaid. A fresh oriental elixir, overwhelming the senses and embracing the skin with the salty kiss of the Everlasting Flower. Top notes: Bitter Orange & Cinnamon. Heart notes: Immortal & Vanilla. Base notes: Precious Woods, Solar Notes & Musks.” Yum!
Also, with un petit peu of Googling, I found out that Lolita Lempicka has also released a special set of fragrances called Les Caprices de Lolita (Lolita’s Whims). It features the normal Lolita Lempicka scent & three additional bottles in violet, licorice & almond scents. Sounds fantastic & it was launched this month… though I have no idea where one is supposed to buy it from.
Also, for fans of the surreal, I present: Dada perfume which smells of nothing! I am overwhelmed with joy! How greattt is that?!
More perfume. (Sorry, I just discovered The Scented Salamander & it is great.) There is a new fragrance called Persephone Perfume Oil with the scent of dark chocolate, blackberry, pomegranate, sandalwood & royal purple flowers. Drool. Sounds good for winter.
Super-love & cupcakes,
Gala

I thought it would look terrible, but blonde hair seems to suit Selma Blair.
The Dada perfume sounds scary, in the fact that people are actually going to buy it. Like people are going to buy that $1000 pizza in New York.
Also, I am adding you to my myspace, just a heads up!
Have a good rainy day!
stop making me want to chop off all of my hair again! keke
i need that lolita lempicka set RIGHT NOW
Perfume looks so decadent – I wish I could smell :( I can tell if I like something or not but that’s about it. My favourite is Jean Paul Gaultier but I have no idea why I like it. I just do – the minimal scent detection I get is pleasing.
The discussion presented here is a good one about the dress,shoes and the perfumes.Especially the perfume is an attracting one.
