d-bomb & GARANCE

Just came across these pictures of Diane Kruger taken by Garance Doré
at the Place des Lices during a pétanque contest.
That's the game that's sort of like bowls but played with little metal balls.
Hugely popular amongst my brother's in-laws funnily enough!
But hey, if the D-Bomb can have such a ball (no pun intended)
it can't be all bad!

This is what Garance had to say:
"What a crazy atmosphere yesterday at the Place des Lices.
A real “pétanque” contest had been organised, and everybody was taking it very seriously.
Diane Kruger was jumping everywhere, Vanessa Paradis was totally focused,
and Elisa Sednaoui was speaking french then italian then english
to make herself clear with her team.
Here is a picture of Diane Kruger who really spent her evening jumping all around.
That girl is so cool. Tommorrow I will stalk her in the streets of Saint Tropez!"

I think it all sounds so fun.
I hope she does manage to stalk her and to stalk her well!
Love these shots. LOVE D's outfit!
To be honest, Diane photographed by Garance HAS to be love.

ooo baby I LIKE YOUR STYLE

NW Magazine asked me to answer a few style questions
as part of their relaunch.
So here they are:

What is the most worn item of clothing in your wardrobe?
I have worn this black Country Road basics dress of mine
about a MILLION times in the 2 years since I bought it.
I'm not one to have a closet full of clothes, I like to mix and match
accessories with basic outfits. So I have alot of bags, shoes, and jewellery.

It’s Oscar night and you can be dressed by any designer, who would you choose?
Ooo I think I would definitely like some vintage Dior Couture!
Or Chanel. Anything appropriately Chanel.
But i'm very into Couture on the red carpet!
Bring back the big structured gowns I say - we can't always rely on
Sarah Jessica Parker, Charlize Theron and Marion Cotillard to attend
the Oscars EVERY YEAR so some of these other girls better step it up!

What trend are you tired of?
Grunge! I was never into it.
You can be edgy without looking dirty.

If you could give any celebrity a makeover, who would it be?
Kate Winslet always frustrates me because I absolutely LOVE her
but she always looks about 10 years older on the red carpet.
I know fashion isn't everyone's thing - and I have no problem with that,
but i'm sure she has a stylist, and that stylist should be encouraging her
to dress her own age and have a little fun with it!

Who is your celebrity style icon and why?
Hands down, inside out, Diane Kruger.
I think she probably has the most fun with fashion
out of anyone else in Hollywood.
But she's not afraid to experiment and she doesn't have a stylist!

I also equally ADORE Marion Cotillard.
She is just a goddess.
A sublimely talented actress who is actually relevant to
the fashion industry and can always be relied upon to bring
a touch of Frenchy chic to any red carpet!

But let it be known that choosing my favourite celebrity style is like
choosing my favourite child (Well, I imagine it would be if I actually had any.)
About 90% of my illustration inspiration comes from celebrity style as it
combines my two great loves, movies and fashion.
To name a couple I love - Sienna Miller, The Olsens, Chloe Sevigny,
Alexa Chung, Gwynnie, Kirsten Dunst and The Kates (Mossy & Bosworth)

Enjoy your weekend everybody!

d for DIANE

Diane Kruger photographed by Guy Aroch
for L'Officiel February 2008


Okay, I know, I know. AGAIN with the D-Krugs!


I just wanted to share another of my fave editorials with you.
This is my ALL TIME favourite DK shoot.
It was basically just a promotion for the Chanel jewellery line
but I think it's so unbelievably stunning!
This is also one of my favourite magazines that I own.
Maybe I should do a post about my fave mag issues one day?


Anyway! Hooray for Friday!
I've had a pretty busy week, and I know I always say this
BUT I do have lots to share with you all very soon.
The only downside to working commercially is waiting
so long to see everything come to fruition!


Enjoy the weekend!
Xx

gorgeous GARGOYLE

Diane Kruger photographed by Patrick Demarchelier
for Vogue Paris October 2009

Just. Wow.
The texture of the lace in these shots is so beautiful.
She looks like a gorgeous gargoyle.
I think if I was a boy i'd probably ask D.K to marry me.
Haha.

Enjoy your weekends!
For all of the Aussies - enjoy the football!

glorious BITCH

Diane Kruger by Mert & Marcus

YOWZA! This editorial is insane.
The perfect accompaniment to Diane's latest film role.
I saw Inglourious Basterds (Yep, that's how it's spelled)
last week with my man and it has to be the BEST movie I have seen all year.
I can't rave about it enough!
I have a bit of a girl crush on Melanie Laurent now too.
If you haven't seen it yet - HOP TO IT.

Happy Wednesday hump-day!
Xx

NOTE to DIANE KRUGER:
I don't really think you're a bitch I think you're lovely!

this is a STICK UP!

Gimme all your clothes Diane!
No....seriously.
I want them.
Especially your lambskin Chanel.


I'm a big supporter of 'love the skin you're in'
but if we DID get to go shopping for our looks
this is what i'd buy. Hands down.
Let me look like Diane just for one day.


Who would you choose to look like for a day?

UPDATE:
Flicking through last week's Grazia and came across this
dress by Life With Bird. Reminds me of Kruger's!
Get into my life now please!

diane goes to PARIS

Photographs by Marianne Rosenstiehl


This is exactly what I want to be doing right now.
I'm cold too - so why can't I put on my best coat
and scarfe and wander through the streets of Paris?
Would make the weather slightly less depressing!


This WOULD be me in November had my plans
not changed - instead i'll be singing
'I love Paris in the Springtime!'
in early May! Weeeeeeeeeeeee........


Hope those of you enjoying this frosty Winter
weather are sufficiently rugged up!
(It got to -1 at my house the other night! Brrr)

the costume INSTITUTE GALA 09

I've just spent the entire morning eagerly pouring through

images from the 2009 Costume Institute Gala at the MET in NY, 
and I have to say, i'm not too sure what's going
on in the world of fashion right now.


There were some AMAAAAAZING looking women
on the red carpet, some of whom looked phenomenal,
 and then some just looked, well, tragic.
SERIOUSLY, half of these girls looked like they'd
wandered off the set of Dynasty!
The shocking neon metallics and big hair are just foul.


There were a couple of gems, though.
Along with the girls up the top,
these are my faves....looooooove them:
Marion Cotillard in Dior

Gisele Bundchen in Versace

Karolina Kurkova in Richard Chai


Diane Kruger & Josh Jackson in Chanel




Here are the extras  from Dynasty...
Anne Hathaway in Marc Jacobs  & Rose Byrne in ?


Victoria Beckham in Marc Jacobs,
Donatella Versace & Cindy Crawford in Versace




And here are the plain old 'WTF were you thinking?' 

Madonna in Louis Vuitton, 
Leighton Meester & Rhianna in ?


This year's event was SO disappointing.
But I think that had more to do with some
 of the last S/S shows being so overly influenced by the 80s!
It also didn't help that some went a bit overboard with
the accessories *cough* Madonna.
That LV dress would be gorgeous on its own
with a little pair of heels
- but, then again, probably not on Madonna.


What do you think?
