Helena Christensen, Future Claw Magazine

At Home With Helena Part II

August 5, 2013 by igetakickoutofyou

Want an insight into eclectic dressing? Take a look at this interview with Helena Christensen for FutureClaw magazine, where Helena takes on the role as stylist, and creates an intimate portrayal of her kind of living. Similar to At Home With Helena Part I, let’s face it, who can resist another look at such gorgeousness? I think I just might prefer this photoshoot – what do you think? HC “There are some of my favourite items in there, yeah. It […]

Pamela Courson, Jim Morrison

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 […]

George Hurrell – Shadowcaster

June 3, 2013 by igetakickoutofyou

“A Hurrell portrait is to the ordinary publicity stills what a Rolls-Royce is to a roller-skate”.          This is how George Hurrell, MGM’s main man, was described in Esquire magazine in 1936. Marlene Dietrich Veronica Lake George swept into town with the intention of becoming a painter, only once he started photographing heiresses, with his signature dramatic spotlight, creating sculptured cheekbones and glowing skin, he never looked back. Carole Lombard By 1929 he had a contract with […]

Perfect Pointe

April 30, 2013 by igetakickoutofyou

How gorgeous is this shoot from an equally gorgeous blog called Travelling Mama? Makes me want to turn back the clock, be a ballerina, live in Copenhagen and ……organise my wardrobe while on pointe (perhaps not!) Love those colours and I’m all over those leg warmers: I have my own pole shoot on Friday and I’m hoping to include a few pics on pointe (if I can bear it!) Haven’t done that in a while, I can tell you. The […]

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 […]

February 6, 2013 by igetakickoutofyou

I’m loving I’m His Girl by Friends at the moment – almost Princess Superstar mixed with Ladyhawke. And when I came across Ashley Goldberg’s cool coloured girls I thought they just fit the song perfectly – certainly not just another chick! Enjoy…….. Diana Gwen Clementine Rosie Lily Ginger

Collages From Buenos Aires

January 14, 2013 by igetakickoutofyou

Just before Christmas I went to Buenos Aires for my aunt’s 50th Birthday. Wow – what a trip it was! I have been meaning to blog about this trip for ages but I really wanted to go through the photos and make some sort of sense of them. I didn’t really want to blog about a family holiday as it’s a bit meaningless if you don’t know the people involved. So while I was there I tried to take some […]
