My all-time favorite designer is Carolina Herrera for the mere fact that she creates clothes truly for a woman’s body. These clothes are absolutely gorgeous and of course, she can never dissappoint. Her pairings of chocolate and white feels very fresh and comes across as very striking yet isn’t as stark as the main-stay combination of black and white. View it all here.

Watch M.I.A.’s video for “Bucky Done Gun” … not as beautiful as the “Sunshowers” video but still great for my favorite song on the album.
Who you are... Bucky Done Gun.
I’m going to India in a few weeks and wanted a new camera to accompany me on the trip. My coworker recommended the Lumix, mostly for the reason that we both suffer from severe Leica lust but are too poor to indulge. This is the next best thing. Panasonic camera, Leica lens. Gorgeous photos. I can’t wait.
