i dont wanna sound mean but why is Vogue China havin on its cover for november Agyness Deyn !!? again !!? and why are they always payin tribute to western cultures or to europeans icons whereas China is full of interestin people !! please be more chauvinist !!! i mean Vogue Paris' always havin french icons on their covers and it's normal no !!? same with US Vogue even tough it's more commercial than anything !! but who cares !! China has the power now and the people realize they're gonna play an important role in the future, in terms of economic power, politics decisions or environmental issues !! and culturally of course ! so what are they wanting for ?!!! invade our minds and soul please !!im sick of all those things I've already learnt !
ps : however im lovin this editorial featuring british socialite Theodora Richards as a UK fashionista doll which isnt hard to do for this chick !! i mean, we've seen her at every London couture bash, front row in Paris or havin fun with designers or rich kids in Ibiza !!!
ps2 : oh yeah i forgot to say that i plan to come to London for holiday !! i need vacations !!! we're all tired !

cartier has launched his new jewels collection named "Inde mystérieuse collection"
so it is a very high jewelry collection with some fantasy pieces
the bollywood style is on !! trust me !
so even though this collection is not necessary destined to Indian Maharajah, it costs a lot lot lot of money
the most amazin piece is shown here ! love the feline style
that multi-piece suite includes a matching ring and brooch, the gold and diamond (over 1000!) collar combines the chic and surreal to create one wild animal no one would ever run from. We've all seen kitties chase their tails, but never one that caught his with as much style.
isn't it wonderfull ?!!

Charlize is back here for italian brand Breil Milano
we can all agree she's really nice here !! as usually !
by the way im never bored of her, because even if she's the typical beach blond girl, she always shows she's not vulgar, nor sexy as Pamela Anderson if u know what i mean !! so well i couldnt agree more with this choice
the last one is my very favorite !!! she's so " jolie "
however im lovin real models so much and im sure a lot of pretty girls would have done this the same way or much better
but i guess to earn money and make the customer buy and recognize your product, u need a famous face ! u need somethin or someone who would make people remember u !!
sorry but there's too many ads everywhere !!! in Japan a study showed that people in a day are exposed to more than a thousand advertissements !!!! unbelievable right ?!!!!

Her name isnt popular if you type it on google.com and you probably wont get any answers either if you ask the people in general but the fashion/art/design world knows a lot about her !! yes she's the girl behind the hypest and most talked about parisian shop right now called " Colette " ! what an honour is it again getting an interview of such a visionnaire, gifted and interesting woman ! Merci Sarah ! however i know a lot of people would have liked to see a picture or more of her !! but everyone knows the artist just disappears behind his work of art as it symbolizes pretty well how genius he is !!! so just enjoy this chic glimpse !! and check their website for their great music and exclusive offers !!! i just need the Gareth Pugh and Jeremy Scott perfume only availables there !! i told you it's hype :)
1- First why is the shop called " Colette " ? Is it really your mother name ? And isnt it a bit cliché for a shop knowin it's a very french name ?
Sarah : Yes it is, but that's not the reason. We wanted a French and Parisian name so we thought it would be a good choice. We like the contrast of the old name with our modern space.
2- By the way it's also very paradoxical comparing the very french and traditional name, Colette, mixed with some high-fashion, hype and couture brands. Was it a commercial trick ?
Sarah : No, it was not a trick at all, it was simply how we wanted to built the store: a modern lifestyle store with products we like.
3- How do you explain your success ? Why is the Colette label so powerfull right now ?
Sarah : It's always difficult to explain but we're happy that people like the way we work, like our selection, like the fact that we change the display and the window every week. Maybe they realised also that we always try to think about how to surprised them tomorrow and not sleeping on some passed success.
4- I adore the concept of the water bar !! But when are you gonna have an oxygen bar ? Like in Tokyo ? Wouldnt it be wicked ?
Sarah : Oxygen bars are forbidden in France.
5- You have also released a CD called Colette Express !!? Do you plan to launch an international tour for example ? And do you have other projects like that ?
Sarah : We launched many colette compilation since our opening and this one is the last one, like a Fedex envelop to send. We already did a tour, Paris-NY-Tokyo for colette N�5.
6- So i read that you're the one shopping for the shop ! Is it a hard job ?
Sarah : I am buyer and creative director and even if it's a non-stop job, it's honestly a great one, as it's always very inspiring to keep meeting great designers.
7- Most important question, how are you choosing which brand is going to be shown ?it must be an honour for a lot of young designers ! or artist ?
Sarah : It's just very spontaneous, I just follow my heart!! And you know, it's also an honour as well for us to have the possibility to launch new designers or artists.
8- So you're always inviting famous artist like Ryan McGinley or Dan Colen! What is the most important thing you look in an artist ? if i want to exhibit at Colette, what do i need ?
Sarah : Since March 1997, we change monthly exhibitions...and believe me, there is no rules.
9- By the way, you seem to be really influenced by the Purple mag team, artistic vision or fashionable point of view. Do you admit it and why ?
Sarah : Purple is a very important visual reference, but i don't feel influenced by their work. We just share some taste for some artists.
10- Why is Olivier Zham so iconic from your point of view ? you are even selling some candles with him on the box which is very lovely !
Sarah : Olivier Zahm became a sex-symbol!!!
11- I was also wondering knowin you opened one pop-up concept store with Commes des Garcons in Tokyo and one in New York with Gap, so in which city the upcomin one is gonna be settled ? and with which brand are you going to team for the next one ?
Sarah : Surprise!!!!
12- I would also like to have your point of view on fashion. Where do you think it is going ?
Sarah : ..everywhere!!!!
13- Just before closing the interview, do you know or do you have any ideas of what is going to happen to Colette in the future ?
Sarah : Always in evolution...so we never know.
14- And finally what is stylish today ?
Sarah : I don't know you but I'm sure you are!!
ps : a big thank to Sarah since i know she's so and so busy even tough we get more shots of her at parties by The Cobrasnake than behind a computer !! but who cares !! and thanks to Guillaume also !! the guy from the public relation service !! this wouldnt have been possible without you !!

the last issue of Numéro 94 is just wonderfull !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
even if the cover is not the best
but the content and editorials are really really wicked
it's definitely their best issue from years !
by the way i am not that much into givin a mag issue a main theme
actually it's a big problem cuz at the end, the editor is just doin some very stereotyped visions !!! for example here it was normal and classic to see mermaids, water, sea shells.....etc
as u can see the name of the issue is " Naiade " that means in french naiad or water nymth !! logical right ?!! however the result is definitely better than some Vogue editorials !! so shut up !
so im just in love with Coco Rocha one !!
so so cool !! very Gwen Stefani for me
then there's the one with model Vlada !! absolutely cool
the mermaid theme like is really cool even if i dont know who the model is !!! do u ?????
and i saved the best for last, with one of my top five favorite model : Carmen Kass
love u babe !!
so there's only one thing to do : buy it !!

i never thought i would be one day buyin a bag ! i mean it's not really usefull for a guy knowin i dont carry makeup, three hundred lipsticks, yeah yeah girls i know it !!! some pictures of the family, boyfriend and kids !! oh and they have pills and medicine also ! lots of cards and papers and bills !!! their three cellphones so they can loose one !! haha i know im a bit mean but it's true !! so for me, guys and bags arent really workin ! i guess it's a sociological issue ! but now the trends have changed ! the moods also ! and i feel like it's cute to carry a nice bag instead of havin a suitcase which is perfect for a 50 year-old business man !! but for me !!? by the way it's a Marc Jacobs tote bag !! now i can play the socialite in the streets of Paris !!!!! C'est la folie

but please forgive me not for posting as much as before
