When I grow up I wanna be...Sylvia Dell’ Orto. Who? Yes, that's the usual response and I really don't understand why. Kevyn Aucoin (RIP), Dick Page, Pat McGrath, Troy Jensen, Scott Barnes, all phenomenal artists and all recognizable names. However even…

~Tao Okamoto by Daniel Jackson for Vogue Nippon November 09~

Some boys kiss me,

some boys hug me I think they're o.k.

If they dont give me proper credit

I just walk away



They can beg and they can plead

But they cant see the light, thats right

cause the boy with the cold hard cash

Is always mister right,

cause we are



Chorus:

Living in a material world

And I am a material girl

You know that we are living in a material world

And I am a material girl

~Daniela Glunz *Pure Inspiration*~

"What worth has beauty if it is not seen?" - Italian Proverb



Lately I have been OBSESSED with vivid colors and textures. I want to paint every face I see in vibrant colors and dip them in glitter and diamonds. I have visions of Fuchsia cheeks, Chartreuse eyelids, Yellow lips. Yes, I said yellow lips... Don't knock it til you've tried it.



Like I said, I'm a little obsessed with color these days, maybe more than a little…

and the irony is..fashion trends repeat themselves time and time again!

Ha! I just wrote a report on re-appearing fashion trends from a past era/decade and todays. I chose harem pants (suprise, suprise) since they hit up the fashion world and it seemed they would never go away! Who would have thought harem pants first appeared on the fashion scene in the early 1920's?



I also selected the 1970's flannelette shirt- celebs seemed to have brought this one back, introducing various cuts and colourways.



Aviators were my chosen… Continue

isn't it meant to be colourful season in Australia??!

Oh yes, on the other side of the world is that also fashionable continent called Australia! Yet in Melbourne, the capital city of Victoria- it doesn't appear to be representing the season SPRING at all! No instead it is a dreary, wet day and i am stuck inside sick with a chest infection! Melbourne is the capital of Black in Australia- and i am the empitany of that! Black makes me feel boring! A little black is okay- but it is rare i venture out of the house in more than one… Continue

"L'unione fa la forza." ("In union there is strength.")



Maybe you didn't know but "Glamour Whore" aka "LaBella Puppetta" (born "Ignazia") is a very proud product of Italy, well actually Sicily, and I write this post with great pride and joy... I love to see my fellow Italians giving back.



It's Fashion Week in Milan, Italy and yesterday instead of models with hour-glass figures, the models were shaped like Coke bottles. That's because…

~Kiki de Montparnasse -Thinking of You...Thinking of Me~

"There are two tragedies in life. One is not to get your heart's desire. The other is to get it."

-George Bernard Shaw



Anyone who knows me, knows of my love of the "wifebeater". Beaters are a wardrobe staple for me. Throw on a beater, usually white and usually with a colored bra, some fab accessories, heels and a great coat/jacket and you have the "glamour Whore" uniform. And it's sexy. And glamorous if you wear it right. I also have made…
