Only Girl In The World Part Deux

I am in love with Rihanna's Album Artwork for her new album, I think because it's very similar to her video for Only Girl (in the world) which is such a good video/song! I love seeing where people get their inspirations from and seeing how people perceive and develop their ideas! The inspiration from the video has come from Tim Walker's photography. You can see the influence with the use of bright colours and the balloons with the water and the suspended garments. Tim Walker is one of my favourite photographers. I've only recently really got into his work, he uses a lot of colour which I've never been a fan of. You should have a look at his work here! Here are some of the original photographs that have been used for inspiration in the video.

Here are some video stills from the video (their not the best of quality, this was the best I could do)

This video makes me want to have bright red hair so badly! Do you see the inspiration? And of course to see it even more here's the video

Never Forget

"All this will not be finished in the first 100 days, nor will it be finished in the first 1,000 days, Nor in the life of this administration, Nor even perhaps in our lifetime on this planet. But let us begin"

John Fitzgerald Kennedy-November 23 1963

Well Well Well

As I was making my actual christmas list this year (which does not feature any of my fantasy list items) I was really exited to see that Duffy's new album will be released in time for Christmas so that went straight on the list. I loved loved loved her last album so I'm hoping this won't disappoint. I love Duffy's whole look and I think she is beautiful. I found some pictures for her album artwork and their lovely. I think she looks breathtaking and the images almost look like stills from a film. No one can deny that she has a 60's vibe in her styling but I think she modernises the look well so that she doesn't look stuck in that era. She makes me want to have blonde hair so badly! I couldn't recommend her album enough! What do you think of Duffy's style?

A Love Was Lost

I had to upload this video, It's amazing.

But now we've found it

Our love was lost, was lost

And hope was gone"

How cool would it be to have fashion shots like this to represent the astrology star signs?

If money was no object, this is what I'd be asking Santa this year for Christmas!

What would be on your dream christmas list?

Here is today's Friday Song.

Every Breath You Take - The Police

"Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace

I dream at night

I can only see your face

I look around but it's you I can't replace

I feel so cold and I long for your embrace

I keep crying baby, baby please"

Have a lovely Friday!

The Kids All Dream of Making It, Whatever That Means

A collection of Terry Richardson's interpretation of Los Angeles. I love that their not the usual LA photographs and they capture the 'Dream' of Los Angeles
