Ken: Barbie's Husband and Fashion Model?

So, basically the new issue of Esquire has the best editorial...ever. It's actually the coolest, yet most humorous one I've ever seen. The Esquire styling team dressed the tiny model in the Fall Burberry Prorsum, Paul Smith, Gucci, and Prada collections. Though this photoshoot is incredibly adorable, Ken was apparently quite the diva on set refusing to do what was asked of him. I'm serious. Esquire actually mentioned his attitude in the article accompanying these photographs. This is probably the last time Matthew Donaldson (the photographer) will ever hire a plastic model.

Just a small footnote: Isn't the resemblance between Ken and Garret Neff uncanny? I mean, just compare the first picture of Ken to this one of Garret! They're even wearing similar jackets!

Who decided summer was all about bright colors?

Want an edgier look this summer? Draw inspiration from this editorial and switch out the bright for black in your wardrobe. What do you think about this dark summer look?

What More Can I Say?

I love the movement in this editorial. And even though it is from last year, I'm still going to use some of these pieces for inspiration this spring. I want to wear flowy long dresses, but I also would love to add pieces with shape (like in the photo right above) for this summer.

And in case you were wondering where the title of this post came from, I told Alex I was going to name it after the first song that came on my iPod Shuffle. So there you have it, What More Can I Say? by Jay Z

I Have Patrick!

July 2009 Vogue UK

One thought that comes to my mind whenever I see Patrick Demarchelier's name, is Emily Blunt and Ann Hathaway calling "I have Patrick!" in The Devil Wears Prada to Meryl Streep. Such a great movie. Honestly, I can recite every line, and I do in every day conversation.

Anyway I just found these photos and they got me excited because a)Patrick Demarchellier is a genius and b) I want summer, and brightly hued dresses on Agyness Deyn just get me in a summer mood

What gets you in the summer mood?

Tootles,
