edgy biker - Vogue Germany April 2012

images via trendhunter & oracle fox

Wow...this editorial for Vogue Germany April 2012 is
smokin' hot.  I love the mixing of the warm hazy images with
the black/white images. The mood is alluring and the colour
my fave black. How sexy is the ink across the lower half
of the male model in the first pic...sizzling HOT!!


It's another summer day today and we've just welcomed spring.
Again this is mad! The warm air from the south
came up and wasn't met with a winter chill to cool it down.
Which is definitely the case
because we didn't have a winter this year.

Hope your Wednesday brings fun surprises.

Katie Holmes Sizzling Hot!!

Wow, Katie Holmes get's a dramatic makeover in Vogue Spain August 2011 magazine.  Katie first grabs your attention on the cover and then takes you on a sultry ride in an editorial photographed by Tom Munro.

Here's a sneak peek...

I hope your week went well and your weekend is even better.  We have no plans for our long week (Monday is a civic holiday) but relaxation and running the musketeers around so they fall asleep as soon as their little heads hit the pillows...lol.

The Caribana Parade is in town this weekend, North American's largest Carribean parade.  Filled with beautiful costumes and great music. I used to go when I was little, my mom loves it and some years she's even played in the parade.  I don't go anymore seeing that somewhere along the line I developed a nasty phobia to large crowds of people.  Who knows what the future holds?

McQueen Fall 2011!!

Wow, Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen Fall 2011 created an absolutely stunning collection.  Such beautiful fabrics, and the beautiful simple colours of: white, lilac, gray and black and with tailoring that is spot on!  I had a hard time narrowing down my faves to just a few pics; so I chose some of the lighter colours.  However, there's a black dress that I just had to slip in.

I will have to return to this collection in the fall for the all black edition...lol

Wow....was that exhilarating or what!?



Well, with that said, hope your weekend is phenomenal!!!  I am planning a trip downtown to purchase some new supplies for my fall collection, but we'll see how that goes.  I really just want to lay on a blanket in the park and take in the days.

Yesterday, afternoon I went out with the kids and stopped by one of my supply shops in the area.  I was horrified to see that she is now only selling her own designs.  The gemstone wall reduced to nothing but a meager selection and the chains selection which was once so vast is almost invisible.  I was shocked, the atmosphere in the shop was so heavy, it was so desolate.  Our area on the whole is changing, a lot of small business owners have not survived and it's really sad.

We've recently lost a great family restaurant 'Lick's', followed by 'Blockbuster' and most recently 'HMV'.  I'm
scared and concerned about the future landscape of this area.

don't forget your swimsuit!

This month's Vogue Italia May 2011 features a swimsuit editorial photographed by Steven Meisel, starring Kristen McMenamy.  A melancholy atmosphere has floated into the Hotel Chelsea and made the models a little moody.  So instead of hitting the beach in their fab swim wear they're just going to wallow in it for a while.










see more here.


By the way, after my grumpy prince read last weeks 'tune in thursday' post he went on a mad search for my Prentenders Greatest hits cd.  It took him 2 days to find; it was putting on a performance for his geeky window's 2000 disc.   



Have a stimulating weekend!
