Emma Watson with her new hair. I don't know why I'm posting something like this - her story about finally letting Hermione go was just lovely. And the cut fits her, reminds me of Edie Sedgwick & early 70s.

Style Inspiration of the Moment: Toots DeVille

2010-10-31T02:03:00.004+03:00

Susan "Toots" DeVille was the first wife of Willy DeVille. I don't have that much info of her, but I believe she died on heroin after breaking up with Willy. She was told to be very violent and moody, almost like a combination of Hell-Cat Maggie & Nancy Spungen & beatnik latino girls. Half Frenchwoman & half Indian, with her pierced nose, she was way ahead of her time.

They remind me of one certain couple...

"The reflection in the water shouted, 'Are your men still, Trying to salute, People from a time when he was, Everything he's supposed to be?' "

Jared Leto at 18. Huh! So strange to look at those after seeing some of the most recent pics of him, looking like Tyler Durden...

In contrast, here's a set of pics of a very tired looking Jonne Aaron from a few years back.

The tittle is from Lapko - Fire horses (you can't find it from youtube or spotify, and I don't feel like uploading it - just buy the damn CD :D)

Sorry for not updating in ages! Seriously, I'm sorry. I have an explanation: this has been the busiest & best July/summer ever. Gigs gigs gigs festivals people people roadtripping gigs parties. And now school (and more gigs).

This post is just a quick something to get back to the blogworld. Közi, Mana and Yu~ki are performing together again - I hope this means a real comeback is on the way. Beautiful new photos of them (can't find them in better quality):

Some months ago I, for the first time of my life, got photographed for a street style thingie. The photographer was the same lady who does Hellooks, but you can't find my photo from there since they used it only in a invitation card for their exhibiton in Korjaamo.

That's fine, but why the hell did they take my photo in the first place since I looked like this:

very lazy outfit, even from me. And see the hole in my tights, oh man.

Now what do you think of this photoshoot Lily did for some Russian mag? I've been loving her music from the very beginning, but this is not right. This is not something a considerable musician would be up to. What I do like is her skirt in that topless pic, and that striped Westwood Red Label dress in other pics.

Sorry for the crappy quality, but my scanner is not working -> these pics are just found from the internezzz. Click to enlarge, or just buy a great big book of his art. I wish I could just born again as Isabella d'Este...

Do you ever have this huge urge to just sew, knit, customize? To wander in second hand shops, buying old zippers & buttons? To organize your self-made granny squares in hundred differend ways? To sew the exat same outfit Boy George used while touring on early '82? To knit a sweater from a pattern you found from a 60s womens magazine? Do you?

I certainly do. Lats week I finished a sweater, a zipper-dress, some spats, tens of granny squares... Too bad I'm in the middle of a testweek here.

Alright have a nice monday there.

Style Inspiration of the Moment: Nina Hagen

2009-11-20T20:15:00.000+02:00

Yes! Nina, the mother of European punk! Or at least the mother of Continental Europe's punk, since the scene in the UK is different. If you Yankees don't know Nina - shame on you!
Nina was born in 1955 in East-Berlin, Germany. She was a singer-songwriter in many little political bands, but in the year 1976 she left the country. She travelled to London and quickly got into the punk rock movement. Back in Germany, in West-Berlin, Nina formed the Nina Hagen Band - and the rest is history. She has then released 15 albums, and she still is highly respected. In the 80s she got very much into gothic rock, Hare Krishna, animal rights - her music isn't all punk anymore, but it's still awesome.

For me, Nina is one of the most inspiring people ever. Her style (both in music and in looks) has varied from angry punk to lovely new wave graziness, from gothic-y to this mystical hippie-krishna-indian thing. Her voice & songwriting is great. She's best friends with Lene Lovich. She supports PETA & the human rights. She just rocks, still at the age of 54.

This post is all about Ai Yazawa's comics & drawings. She is one of my favourite comic artists - I know many of you will instantly hate her because she's Japanese, but what does it matter?
Two of her most well known series are NANA and Paradise Kiss. Nana is basically about two very different girls both named Nana, about their lifes & relationships. Nana has also been transformed into animated series and two live action movies - I'm using pics of the comics and the movies.

The other Nana has this cute & classic style, and the other Nana is very punk & bohemian. Ai Yazawa draws real Vivienne Westwood clothes for the punky Nana - is there any other comic artist who would do that?

Other characters have great styles & clothes, too. Shinichi (the blue/silver haired boy) is my favourite!

Yazawa's second well known comic, Paradise Kiss, is also a great source of inspiration (and it's such a grazy & happy series):

In the movies, the punky Nana is played by always so lovely Mika Nakashima. The theme song of the first movie is sang by her:

And well, here's the ending of Paradise Kiss animated series:

The last thing I must say about Ai Yazawa is that she was also the character designer for Courtney Love's comic Princess Ai (meaning that Yazawa DIDN'T draw that comic):

I hope you got some inpirationg from all this lunaticy. You don't have to like comics, or manga, to see how beautifully those outfits are putted together. :)

Today I've been organizing my computer - thousands and thousands of David Bowie photos haha. I think I'll do another post tonight, since I now know where all the great photos are!

And here's Gwen Stefani's son, Kingston, celebrating halloween. He always looks lovely, don't you think?

Style Inspiration of the Moment: Ronny

2009-10-28T21:36:00.000+02:00

Ronny was French model who moved to London to become part of the Blitz Kids movement. She worked with artists like Midge Ure, Steve Strange, Vangelis, Rusty Egan and Yukihiro Takahashi, and had couple of hit singles in 1981 - 82. She then disappeared from the public eye. You can find more info about her recordings & collaborations with little googling (or you can ask me).
Her voice is awesome, but what really inspires me is her interesting style. She managed to look masculine, sensual, posh, new romantic, Parisian - all at the same time. If she doesn't inspire you with all that beauty & style, then I don't know what does.

top -> bottom: Edward Scissorhands, White Oliander, Elijah Wood & Shirley Manson advertising those glasses, Baader Meinhof Komplex, Woody Allen & women (I can't remember if that's from one of his movies or just a photo?).

Just a little something to show that I'm still not dead. This hole school thing is killing me. Also I would love to have some close friends & healthy relationships. Boohoo boohoo angst. Baader Meinhof Komplex is a awesome movie about RAF and people behing it.

"Well they say that rock is dead, And they're probably right, 99 girls in the pit, Did it have to come to this?"

Blonds, blonds, where do ya all come from? And why there ain't as many redheads around? This post was actually inspired by Sofia Coppola's brilliant movie The Virgin Suicides. And if someone recognizes the tittle, wow.

I don't know, guys. Tommy boy just looks so... fake? tired? bored? and little Suri, she looks somehow fake, too. Whatever.

Eva Longoria in Citizen K magazine. This photoshoot is awesome: in the second photo she almost looks like Siouxsie Sioux, and the last one is pure beauty. That wig looks great on her!

Yes, I will start posting something more interesting very soon. :D

In the mean while, here's Lady Gaga in Washington DC gay pride:

Just little something from the two of my favourite designers. THIS is what I love about fashion. My exams are now over and I hope to be back asap. :)

2009-09-29T21:46:00.000+03:00

No, I'm not dead. I'm just sad, stressed, exhaused and very tired. So, I'll be back when my exams are over - in a week or so.

it makes me so sad.

"See these tears so blue, An ageless heart, that can never mend, These tears can never dry, A judgement made, can never bend"

Why do all the ladies from old(ish) horror ( or horror inspired) films look so great?

THIS is Lady Gaga for V magazine. I don't know what to say expect that her (fake) tan looks horrible.

THOSE are from the new Twilight movie. I don't know what to say expect that I kinda hate the one looking like that Zac Efron guy.

Style Inspiration of the Moment: Christiane F.

2009-09-01T18:37:00.000+03:00

Christiane F. (aka Vera Christiane Felscherinow) is famous for her book Wir Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo and the movie based on it. The book describes her drug broblems, and youth of Berlin in the late 70's. When I first read the book, it impressed me to no end. And the movie has David Bowie in it, so it's a must see. I'm sure you've all read the book and seen the movie, so enought about those.
After the book, Christiane formed a band called Sentimentale Jugend and released couple of singles with her then boyfriend Alexandre Hacke. They also appeared in two german films called Decoder und Neonstadt. Christiane then lived in the USA and in Greece, before moving back to Berlin. Atm she has one son (Jan-Niklas Philip, born 1996) with whom she lives in Amsterdam. She still strugles with her drug addiction.

Christiane is not something to be called "fashion icon", but especially her early 80's style really inspires me. She has always managed to dress nicely, being a punk and all.

(even if ya don't speak german [i don't], that video is still interesting)
