I'm going to Paris in less than two weeks (crutches or no crutches!) and have been drooling over everything on the city of lights.
I saw Midnight in Paris last week and it was divine. I think I need to see it again and actually pay attention to the plot this time, I was just gazing at the beautiful scenery in the background.

Here's the opening credits:

I won't lie when I say my heart hurt a little bit watching this film, but I shall see my lovely city so soon!

on a somewhat related note, I've been trawling through this amazing blog.

Behold, some lovely pics from (I think) the most recent PFW.

I've been watching Lagerfeld Confidential on youtube (here).
It's good, but the soundtrack is pretty great. And brought this song back to me.
Dare you to listen to it and not smile, it's hard!

Some of my favourite looks from last nights Met Gala in New York.


Kirsten Dunst in Chanel


Natalia Vodianova in Valentino, (Valentino, why so orange? Wha gwan?)


Ashley Olsen in Christian Dior (with Christian Louboutin)


Sarah Jessica Parker in Alexander McQueen


Diane Kruger in Jason Wu (with the man himself) (but where's Joshua Jackson?!)


Emma Roberts in Michael Kors. Her hair is lovely too.


Mia Wasikowska in Thakoon (he is the cutest little thing)


Gwyneth Paltrow in Stella McCartney

My two fave looks are a tie between these two:

Doutzen Kroes in Giambattista Valli


Michelle Williams in Miu Miu

Perfect Wedding Dress.

I watched the (I was going to say 'show') ceremony with my Mum this morning.
We drank Bellinis, ate cucumber sandwiches and victoria sponge,
and...I'm embarrassed to admit this, but I cried!

No-one does pomp like the Brits.

Cutest flower girl award goes to:

Adorable!

I am wedding-ed out.

Bill Cunningham is the original street style photographer. For around 30 years he's been taking photos for his column 'On The Street', which appears every Sunday in the Style section of The New York Times.

Usually centered around a theme, the photos are featured on the website in the form of an audio slideshow, with Bill narrating it.

This is one of my favourites in which he talks about the Parisian obsession with legs.

I should probably mention that he's in his 80s. Oh, and he doesn't take a salary.
Pretty amazing, especially in 'the current climate' (as some are all too fond of saying).



You can find his back catalogue here.

PS Any trailer that uses Nico gets my vote.

New fave blog.

Got these shoes the other day...


They were so cheap and now I want to wear them with everything.
Including dresses like this one (from, where else, Topshop):


What would you wear them with? Or would you even wear them?

I just went on a shopping binge and got these beauts.





















Okay, no I didn't, but I've added them all to my wishlist!

I feel like I've, unintentionally, picked Kirsten Dusnt's wardrobe.

Aren't these two kind of similar?

I can't be arsed to talk about politics on what was undeniably
a mad day in Leinster House (see here for some sort of explanation).

However, this book looks interesting!

(but I can't believe Hilary Clinton didn't make the cover)
