Chignon

January 30, 2021 by igetakickoutofyou

Immortalised by Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, I was reminded of the Chignon while sorting through my books and finding this gorgeous image in Jerry Schatzberg’s Paris 1962. Perfect!

Anita Ekberg

An Ode to Anita

April 1, 2014 by igetakickoutofyou

Nobody did glamour like Anita Ekberg. Like a slinky silver fox she sashayed her way across the screen. Never will a sweetheart bust-line ever look so good!

Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin, Ian Berry, London 1970

Birkin by Berry

July 4, 2013 by igetakickoutofyou

I was on the Yoox site, looking for a jacket (nothing new there!), and I came across this gorgeous framed print for sale, of Jane Birkin by Ian Berry. Clearly I couldn’t leave it at that, so I had to take a peak at the rest of this intimate collection. Taken in London 1970, it features a very natural Serge and Jane, with her daughter Kate Barry. They look like any other couple wandering the streets in the 1970’s. Only […]

Style Crush – The Girl From Love Street

June 10, 2013 by igetakickoutofyou

I experienced a real stab of nostalgia while watching Mad Men this week. When Megan appeared in her indian hippie dress, it really took me back to my school and university days (an indie trend you understand, I wasn’t born until the seventies!) and a whopping great infatuation with all things bohemian. In sixth-form I had a huge girl-crush on a friend called Polly. She was in my English class and knew her literature like noone else, particularly poetry. She […]

Why Don’t You….watch “The Eye Has to Travel”

February 15, 2013 by igetakickoutofyou

I watched the documentary Diana Vreeland – The Eye Has To Travel over the weekend and it is an absolute must-see. I was totally transfixed from beginning to end. “I was the most hideous thing in the world”, Diana Vreeland told an interviewer in 1977 and perhaps because of this, she became the champion of the eclectic woman and the unconventional beauties of the world. I won’t spoil her story here, you must definitely watch the film, but she was well […]

Decades of Desire

December 28, 2012 by igetakickoutofyou

I now know the best way to get the presents you desire and that’s to write a post about them. Oh yes, some of those lovely 10 Best Books found their way into my stocking this year and I am one happy gal! Now I’m not favouring one present over another, but I have to say Decades by Cameron Silver, which my cousin’s in law gave me, had me, (rather unfortunately for my family), totally mesmerised on Boxing Day. The […]

Jane Fonda, Cannes, 1960's

Jane Fonda’s Lessons on Life

October 12, 2012 by igetakickoutofyou

How gorgeous are these pictures of Jane Fonda and Alain Delon, taken by Edward Quinn in Cannes in the early sixties? So young and fresh:   edwardquinn.com Have any of you subscribed to Amanda de Cadenet’s “The Conversation”? It’s like a celebrity online interview (Donna Karan, Zoe Saldana, Gwyneth Paltrow, Lady Gaga etc) but specifically for women. I’m not a massive celebrity lover but I’m actually quite hooked because it does come across as a very natural interaction. My very […]
