what did I say about gold

This is more gold than I have seen since the 80s......Prada's 2009 S/S collection of the gold sizzling Nappa Antique collection.

Everyone knows i'm crazy about my puppies ....so how can I not blog about doggy stuff? Via Luxuo, Marco Morosini had designed a collection called "Dog is a God" for Marco Morosini. Supposed to have inspired by ancient times beliefs. I don't see much connection, but I do think the houses and carriers are quite cute and chic. I couldn't mind getting one for sleepyhead Bambi.

Adriana or Marilyn Mason?

I absolutely adore the beauty of Adriana Lima and can almost drool over her victoria secret shots like all men do, but the new Fall ads of Givenchy really scared me. Is it just me? She looks like someone that I still dare not to stare too long......Marilyn Manson......
