Stella McCartney

Stella McCartney achieved something, what not everybody could - she is NOT famous because of her name (she's the daughter of Paul McCartney), but because of her active work in fashion-world. She is also the first one, who started "green fashion". It means, all of her collection is animal product-free, many pieces are eco sustainable, biodegradable, she works with velvet, linen, recycled nylon, and her logo is 'organic cotton'. It's not a surprise, that she does so many things for the environment, because also her late mother was an animal-activist. 
But she doesn't want people to buy her clothes only because they are green, she wants it "because they're beautiful". She also says: "My first job is fashion designer." 


McCartney says: "Being green sort of came without thinking."


It's Easter-time, but she still keeps on working. Stella McCartney and other designers like Cookie Speed, Nicky Clarke, ... , all design bunny pictures. The creations will be sold on the 26th of May 2011 in London (also online on Givinglots.co.uk). The money will be given for the "Great Ormond Street Hospital".
My favourite designs are from Stella McCartney, John Frieda and Marc Quinn:


Stella McCartney's bunny is really simple, but that's why it's one of my favourites. The clear picture with the gold colour, which is already in itself flashing, is lost, because the two kind of materials, both allures our eyes. I love this picture!
 When I first saw the design of John Frieda, I just saw the heart and the interesting muster in it. Only after I looked away, I realized, that there was something, a bunny, in the middle. I love the idea, and I think, John Frieda brought it perfectly on paper! I feel harmony, when I'm discovering that creation, probably because of the hypnotizing muster and colour-combination! 
Marc Quinn's design is very unique. First, the purple-red contrast catches my eyes, then the different muster. Only at the end comes the form of the bunny clear from the picture out. I love the muster of the purple flower, because it reminds me on an animal-muster, and after thinking of that, I realize, there's a bunny in the picture. Also the strawberry-tomato contrast is interesting, because they both have the colour same. But there's also a harmony of the nature in the design. Whatever, Marc Quinn is tricky, and it's funny, how his picture is playing with our mind! 

New York International Auto Show 2011

The New York International Auto Show just began. But we already know the winner of the World Car of the Year Award: it's the Nissan Leaf electric car. I think, that was a very good choice, because this car is electric, and if many would use that kind of cars, it would be a good chance to achieve a more sustainable environment. In the last time the air pollution turned into a serious problem, and people have to do something against it. Bringing into use electric cars is a very good idea, here in HK I already see many of them, and also there are placed "electric refilling machines" at filling stations and parking places.


Paper Passion by Karl Lagerfeld

You could think, there is a border, what designers can create and discover, but that's not true! Karl Lagerfeld created a new parfum, called Paper Passion, which has an aroma like printed books have. This sooo cool! I always smell the new books before I begin to read. And you know exactly, I think, that amazing, fresh and energetic smell of printed paper. I also like reading very much, so I'm sure, I will try this parfum!
Karl Lagerfeld created the new parfum, because he loves books, he has in his houses around the world more than 300.000 books. If he likes a book very much, he buys at least two pieces from it, so he can work with one, write in it and cut it. So, he thought, why couldn't he make a parfume, which contains the wonderful smell of books? 
I love this idea, and I think, this will be a big step in fashion-world and soon will appear similar products on the market.

Rising stars and models

I collected the fastest rising three stars and three models. Their carrier looks really good, they all become a lot of attention!


These three women, each actors, are in the middle of the attention. Vanessa Hudgens is starring in Beastly, Reese Whiterspoon in Water for Elephants and Jennifer Lopez is very active in fashion-world. She was on a Vogue-meeting with Frida Giannini, designer for Gucci, a few days ago.
They all are "coming-back".  They all have a nice carrier, but in the last year, we couldn't hear too much from them. Now, I think, they become a lot of attention, what they needed, so their fame don't disappears!




Aymeline Valade, 25-years-old model, was on the runway of the most famous labels this season, so her carrier is rising very fast. Stella Tennant is also "coming-back", we could see her on many shots of labels like Chanel and Zara. And the third rising model is Karlie Kloss, the young talented girl, who worked for Dior, Marc Jacobs and much more labels!

Happy Easter!


Happy Easter to everybody!!! I just found the best present, the new Katie Hillier collection. You can buy many necklaces, on which are hanging little bunnies, or rings and bracelets with little bunnies. You can buy them in Katie Hillier shops in London, Paris and Tokyo.
Here are my favourite ones of the collection:

Reese Witherspoon

Reese Witherspoon in the middle of attention - her new movie, called Water for Elephants comes out on the 5th of May. She is starring with Robert Pattinson in that romantic movie, which is filled up with acrobatic elements. Witherspoon had to take acrobatic training lessons before the movie and had to learn to work with elephants.

 Whatever, she is today's America's muse and is appearing on the cover of magazines like Vogue, Glamour and Elle.
I like her effeminate-style, I think she looks in red dress with red rouge and curly hear the best!
The director of the movie France Lawrence says, Witherspoon is "a timeless beauty".

Lawrence notes: “She [Witherspoon] loves animals and has no fear of trying anything. [But] also, Marlena is a bit tough and hardened. She isn’t a victim and Reese… she is very strong.”


I loved the shots for Vogue the most, because Witherspoon is photographed with the elephant of the movie. The pictures are really romantic, like pics from a a fairytale. Here is a behind-the-scenes-movie:

New Magnum ice cream movie - directed by Karl Lagerfeld

Do you know, that Karl Lagerfeld is not only a very good fashion designer, but also a photographer and film director?? He is making the new advertising movie for the Magnum ice cream. Rachel Bilson is starring amazing in the film. 


I like the black dress the most, which fits to her hair-colour. I think, her hair-colour is very interesting and modern. Maybe more conservative people wouldn't like it, because it can look like somebody didn't have time to go to her hair-stylist to refresh the hair-colouring, but I think people have to be openminded to things like this, because fashion is like art, and sometimes things, which you would think will look horrible, can be at the end the most amazing! So, be openminded!
