Natalie Anne Moran

Long time no speak, so expect a flood of posts now!
I am currently working one day a week for independent womenswear designer Natalie Anne Moran and we have just finished the Spring/Summer '12 Lookbook (as styled by Kyanisha Morgan). Definitely enjoying being a PA to the lovely lady and have also been made an author to her blog so will be dividing my time between Style A-Y and Natalia Supernova!


For her latest collection of day to night pieces Natalie has taken influence from photographer Alice Hawkins, her photographs of Blackpool and Vegas have inspired a colour saturated and embellished range of pieces. 













I want me the argyle crop tee and spotted tulle maxi!

If you haven't already then make sure you check her stuff, she has just launched her second collection which is stocked in Shop172 on Brick Lane and can be found online at Styligion and Not Just A Label

Hallo

I dressed up multiple times this Halloween. Outfit count hit four before the 31st even came. Outfit four involved my interpretation of a skeleton, none of that Nicki Minaj business in V Magazine though, instead I look back and think I verged on mental patient, Hannibal Lecter style? Less obvious of course, and I could hide behind the T-shirt (which I bought; carbon copies can be found in Urban Outfitters or make like a smart one and do it yourself)

Bitch on Heels

My first of many posts on Spring/Summer 2012 starting with: 

LANVIN
I don't want to go all Style.com on you...but...
Style.com said: Oppositions are fundamental to Elbaz, the most elementary being the reality of clothes versus the dream of fashion.
Brap.































Lanvin and separates, why not?

This bitch snatcher by the name of Kreayshawn is among other things a, Rap beast, Screw head, Pot smoker and Oakland representer.
She says: "don't be a basic bitch"

I have been supporting this artist for a while now because this is exactly how I imagine myself as a ghetto white girl, it kinda scares me.
Funny sound, funny look, definitely rate this chick.

'Lindsay Lohan'

Most people saw this film as the re-birth of a forever sober Lindsay Lohan, the 'new star of art'. Bitch please. I simply saw it as an opportunity for painter Richard Phillips, to show his skills as a director.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with the artists work, queue the Wiki explanation: 
'Phillips is known for his large-scale glossy hyper-realistic paintings, recalling the pictorial style of magazines from the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s and reflecting traditions of popular image culture. His paintings represent close-up portraits, predominantly of women from fashion and soft porno magazines, but also persons from the fields of pop music and politics.'

NB: He says: "My pictures involve a kind of wasted beauty - that's always been a thread in my work."

Phillips chose LiLo, not for her problems, but because she is a combination of the fantastic and the real.
Reminiscent of classic bombshell swimsuit moments the film is the quintessence of convention, to the point of banality (and that's the point). Viewers should expect as much from Phillips' filmic debut as they should from a Calvin Klein Obsession ad, but with a much better soundtrack.

Watch the 90 second film below...


I think this psychological portrait of popular cultures tragic heroine is bloody beautiful. And breath.
