Whenever I go to Selfridges, I always make a point of going to the magazine section, on the ground floor. I’m like a pig in clover, surrounded by masses of international magazines and inspiration overload.

Only this time I was a little disappointed. I must have flicked through about 6 magazines – all pretty much showing the same fashion shoot – edgy with splashes of nudity, piercings and androgyny. Not that I have problem with any of these you understand. Sometimes it’s very refreshing, just not after 6!

So imagine my excitement when I opened Vs magazine and found this wonderful shoot with Helena Christensen, in her home. A gorgeous woman, lover of all things vintage, in a home full of  treasures, that are right up my street – what more could one ask for?

So I thought I would share it with you – mixed in with some close up home shots from The Selby:

Stunning eh? I want her home and her body – oh and the lacy knickers…..

p.s. If you liked Ariele Alasko’s home from the Lifestyle Lust Part 1, it has also been featured on DesignSponge – so do take a look – it also shows more of her gorgeous work.

….and I know I’m behind on my illustrated posts but there is a reason, which I will come to at the end of the week….

p.p.s Did you watch Mad Men – where’s Betty?
