VOL.01
I introduce IndianaJones to a beautiful young lady sat across from us and he is very impressed. She stands up to go to the ladies room and reveals that she is wearing this summer’s staple trouser, the harem pant. All of a sudden a look of horror spreads across his face. “Why is she wearing [...]
I made it out to the wireless festival in London’s Hyde Park yesterday to catch Jay Z and see Lily Allen come out of ‘retirement’ for the day. Looking well in a white jumpsuit, gold earrings and sheer leopard shawl, she seemed very much in love as she giggled and dedicated songs to her boyfriend [...]
Look who I spied looking like a stone fox in this month’s issue of W magazine. With stunning photography and styling, Eva Mendes looks every bit the screen siren– and not to mention, just like Cindy Crawford (see the comparisons at the bottom of this post). Other than the fact that she has a new [...]

It’s that time of year again when my swedish friends (all three of them) begin to disappear back home in preparation for what is simply the biggest party of the year. Midsommer (swedish pronunciation please) is an annual festivity that dates back to pagan times, celebrating the summer solstice, the harvest and fertility. To be [...]
Romantic Summer Dresses Why do I associate white and layered chiffon dresses with Florentine style? I remember falling in love with a beautiful vintage dress that Liv Tyler wore in my much-loved 90s flick, Bernardo Bertolucci’s Stealing Beauty, about an American girl discovering Tuscany. The curve-skimming tiers of weightless chiffon is just so fitting for [...]
Perhaps it’s my father’s love of Roman antiquity or the fact that my mother was never an afficionado of diamond sparklers, but there is something about rustic rings that stops me in my stride when I walk past a shop window of unmanicured stones set on grainy gold. I’m so fond of them that if [...]
