OFFFF WE ARE!

adam, paul and our squirrel friend "kurt" will be in london from tomorrow. it's fashion week, so kurt wants to see all the shows, paul wants to drink all the free drinks and adam wants to hug every cute celebrity. or something like that. we might only be able to post all about our adventures end of next week. until then we leave you with our photo posing advice for good-hair-but-bad-face-days:

if you don't know how to get the complicated look right learn from the queen of facehiddenbehindhair, alison mosshart (for years we though she would not even own a face!):

WE DISAGREE

we have no idea why this one has been included in intouch magazine's fashion faux pas! just no idea.

KOALA AT SHOOT

yesterday our little koala was helping out at a shoot for INDIE magazine's upcoming spring issue ... well, basically just cuddling with some of our 12 (!) models:

holly from the uk

matteo

lucca

cem

jakob (find out why there's confetti in his hair in the next INDIE issue)

xandra (find out why her sweater is wet in the next issue of INDIE)

MY LITTLE PONY

i used to collect "my little pony". what about you?

the artist mari kasurinen made them socially acceptable again ...

what about your knowledge about movie heroes, do you recognize them?

HAUTE CUISINE

bored by eating your soup from a 1 euro plate by ikea? then we have the perfect suggestion for you: hermès dinnerwear!

there are six different dessert plate designs showing tree houses.

drinking your tea from any other cup than this one would be a crime.

how about soup? what, you want to put the pot on the table? quel fauxpas! we present: la soupière.

small bread plates start at 40 euro. what a bargain!

SIXTIES SAD SONG pt.4

last one of our heartbroken ladies for now: dusty springfield just does not know. 1964.

and the white stripes famous version featuring a poledancing kate moss.

SIXTIES SAD SONG pt3

did you know the original was by cher? written by sonny bono, demo version from 1966.

again nancy's version contains a bit more sweet pain ...

IN DEEP SORROW

very very sad about the world losing such a wonderful talent/mind/human being ...

mr mcqueen, we will miss you very much.

PRETTY IN PINK

there are two new mac viva glam lipsticks launching this spring. every cent of what you pay at the shop will be used to help people suffering from hiv or aids. sounds like a good reason to invest in another pink or red tone for your lipstick collection. not only do they help a good cause, these new tones have been designed by two lovely ladies - the red one by cyndi lauper and the pink one by lady gaga!

bunny loves them...

...but just could not decide which one matches the colour of it's nose best?

ANIMAL ANIMATION

we already came out as tim burton lovers. but what we kept as a secret until today is that we are really into johnny depp (ok, not really unpredictable)

a few days ago i watched sleepy hollow. and i was really enchanted by one little detail in the film, about which i want to write to you: the thaumatrope. you have no idea what it is? here a few pics:

 

 

 

 

 

 

so... this is the thaumatrope ... one of the first moving pictures ... an optical illusion ... but the stolen feature below can explain it much better to you than i can:

SIXTIES SAD SONG pt2

the original by skeeter davis

but for more sadness you may want to listen to nancy sinatra's version (make sure you just listen and don't watch the pictures in the video. they destroy the great sad experience)

schik I NIGHTLIFE, pt 3

still stereotyping...

WE DISAGREE (if they can't wear it who could?)

we agree that even the most beautiful avantgarde designer dress can look like a piece of table cloth if you take it off the runway, off the skinny tall model and put it on an average women. 

but why on earth is life&style's "fashion police" moaning about lily cole's alexander mc queen outfit?? and it's not like she has been wearing it for a stroll to the supermarket ... unless she likes to take microphones to the supermarket.

and what could be wrong with sienna miller wearing balmain for an event, dear intouch magazine? ...saying it looks like she's gone mad with a pair of scissors! do they have any clue at all?

SIXTIES SAD SONGS pt1

originally by bob dylan of course, but this version is really beautiful.

AN ELK IN MARRAKECH pt4

ooops, just discovered we forgot a few pictures:

elk and oversized portrait of morocco's kind mohammed VI in the hotel lobby.

yes, that's a handsome king you will now say to yourself, but if you were hoping to hook up with him, here's the disappointing news. he is married with two children...

(we need to share this news feature we found published along with this image:

"To celebrate his daughter’s birth the King ordered one of his ministers to announce the early release of 8,863 people in prison. This included 278 foreigners. The minister also said that the sentences of 24,268 prisoners would be reduced. This included 11 men sentenced to death. Their punishment has been changed to life imprisonment. ")

cool, innit?

elk at gala dinner

still hungry next day so got himself a little snack: dates. mad!
