The Week Ahead

Also, click this, the new T-mobile advert.  I would post it here but I have no idea how to save videos from Youtube (help anyone?)  It is epic.  EPIC.  And it very nearly made me cry.  Damn hormones. I was flew into Heathrow two days later, damn them! 

Isabel Marant

Well, what a fortnight it's been!  I had such a busy time in Los Angeles.  My cousin got married and as an Indian Hindu, getting married to a Polish Catholic, there were loads of dinners, ceremonies and traditions to uphold so there really wasn't time to sleep, let alone do anything touristy!  I shopped a bit, but was slightly disappointed with what I saw, although to be fair I didn't dedicate enough time for it.  I took a picture of Michael Jackson's star, saw the Hollywood sign from miles away and got rained on a lot (shite weather in Los Angeles the past week), but all in all, I had a fab time catching up with my family, which was ideal.

In celebration of Los Angeles, and in mourning of the beautiful sunshine that I left behind yesterday, are the lookbook images from Isabel Marant SS11.  Yes, I'm jumping the gun a bit, but if there are any readers out there not under the threat of cold, wet and windy weather - this is for you.

Anyway, how were your weeks?

Keep Calm

Normally I wouldn't post about this things, but I found this hilarious and couldn't wait to share.  I'm sure you've all seen the Keep Calm and Carry On posters, mugs, postcards and so on, a reinvention of the classic British WW2 posters that were supposed to instil confidence and hope during those terrible times.  I do find it ironic that the phrase, although marketed with products a few years ago, has suddenly latched onto mainstream popculture with a host of new products being released in an economically unstable world.

In a fantastic twist, I came across something as I was casually shopping over the weekend.  A man wearing a t-shirt, bearing a fantastic response.

Honestly, this did make me chuckle quite a bit, and by myself which is quite the sad thing.  I hope it makes you laugh too.

On a side note, to all those British readers out there who keep an eye on the news, I imagine this is what a generation of young students-to-be will be doing when the report of tuition fees is released in the morning.  Now panic and freak out, indeed.

The Week Ahead

Prepare for a bumper issue of this week's bout of inspirational pictures, I'm leaving for Los Angeles on Thursday morning but do hope to get in another post before then.
