The highlight of my day


It's been a pretty boring day at work and I am feeling really tired (mostly from staying up late packing for my move on Saturday.) So when I saw the photos of my favourite male model, Jamie Dornan, starring in the Calvin Klein ads with Eva Mendes, I woke right up.

Boy is hot. A bit too greasy, but sexy.




And for some reason, the media is in an "uproar" over the CK ad that features a bunch of half-naked people. Boring! We've seen it all before. I don't see what the big deal is just because there is a little bit of nakedness going on. It's not as bad as all the violence we see on TV. The photos are pretty tame compared to all the nudity you can find in fashion magazines like French Vogue. But it's great publicity for Calvin Klein.

t.A.T.u. for Marc Jacobs. What the?

Marc Jacobs advertisements are known for being unconventional, a bit weird and for featuring models and celebrities who are not the prettiest of the bunch. But this bit of news is still baffling. Word is that the fake lesbian pop duo t.A.T.u. are the new faces of the Marc Jacobs F/W campaign. Do people even remember them? I thought that one of the chicks for knocked up. But I'm sure Marc Jacobs photographer Juergen Teller will be able to come up with amazing photos. I trust in Marc.

Here's a behind-the-scenes video of the photo shoot:

"He was such a dickhead"


Says Kate Moss in Interview magazine about Mark "Marky Mark" Wahlberg when they did the ads for Calvin Klein.

Check out the commercial!



This one really makes him look like a dickhead:

Ooohhh nipple! Scary!

I don't get all of the big hullabaloo over the "banned" Eva Mendes Calvin Klein ad. Like nobody has ever seen nipples before. Get over it!
I find it kind of boring. There is nothing inspiring about the commercial. Mendes just roles around pouting her lips and arching her back; like she does in all of her movies.
CK needs to find a new theme other than nakedness.
But judge it for yourself:

Update: Changed the video because the last one stopped working. This one works!

Prada and Linda are a match made in advertising heaven

This lace is anything but granny-ish and old. Not too sure about the leather bags- the odd embellishments remind me of fins. But the lace replacement of the Fairy bag is gorgeous. Very classic but erotic. Sames goes with the dresses- very peek-a-boo but elegant. I love the shades of blue in the background; it's almost as if Linda is under water. Lace and water...now that's sexy.

Eva Mendes is sexy in CK underwear


This news is a couple days old but I wanted to comment about Eva "It's pronounced Ava" Mendes as the new face of CK Seductive Underwear.

For the past few seasons, Natalia Vodianova (who seems to get thinner each time she has a child,) has been the face and the body of CK underwear. So this season the CK big-wigs thought they would appeal to those of us who are not rail thin by putting Mendes in their ads.

Tom Murry, the president and operating officer of Calvin Klein Inc., noted in a recent press release, "This is a departure from more slender body types that have been typically used in Calvin Klein Underwear ads.

"But this is not so much about a trend of being more curvaceous. This product is made for a curvaceous woman."

Ha! I find it comical that Mendes is considered "curvaceous." Maybe they mean that she has bigger boobs than the waifs they usually feature. The truth is, most of us do not like like Eva Mendes, but by God if buying CK underwear will give me abs, pert boobies and a sexy Latina pout, then I'm whipping out my credit card.

CK Underwear will make your boobs bigger! Just ask Natalia!

Brought to you from some perv at American Apparel

My 16-year-old cousin loves to shop at American Apparel. The company is probably congratulating themselves that they got away with publishing porn and thinly veiling it as "arty and edgy." Bravo guys, bravo.

If you don't wear this ugly vest, you will die: Lagerfeld

Karl Lagerfeld wearing a safety vest for a French PSA. The text says: "It's yellow, it's ugly, it doesn't go with anything, but it could save your life."
I love you Karl.

I am in love with Natalia in those David Yurman ads


I've always been a huge Natalia Vodianova fan, but seeing her in the advertisements for David Yurman jewellery (shot by Peter Lindbergh) takes my love for her to a whole new obsessed level. These photographs are some of the most beautiful I have ever seen. Natalia looks haunting and even sad. You can't stop staring at her eyes, a deep blue, which make you seem like you are looking into her soul and like she has a secret to tell you. It's just mesmerizing. (Photos: The Fashion Spot)
