Avatar Makeup Tutorial

30 December 2009 No Comments




I watched James Cameron's Avatar movie this weekend and it was absolutely amazing.  It's a visual masterpiece with a compelling storyline. Well after watching the movie did you want to know how you could do your makeup so that you would look like a native of the Planet Pandora?…didn't think so. But in case your one of the few who answered "yes", then this video is for you. Glow Pinkstah of youtube fame  shows how to  get the Avatar makeup look. It's so funny.

Being a Londoner, I sometimes  find myself guilty of a bit of "Big CIty Short Sightedness". Its the phenomenon where people in London forget that  their exist  a vast world outside of London. A short while ago I was invited to a Fashion tradeshow and  I accepted the invitation just assuming that It would be held in London, much to m dissapointment I releaized on the day of the show that the  show was actually in Leeds and I hadn't booked  accomodation or transport..needless to say it didnt end well.

Ive learnt from my mistake and now I am always looking for events happening beyond the M25. The Midlands Young Fashion Designer Awards (MYFDA) is  one such event. Its an annual event created in Birmingham and aims to expose the wealth of creative talent across the Midlands. The MYFDA Awards have established a reputation as a launch pad for cutting-edge regional fashion design talent. The annual event offers up and coming and emerging fashion designers the opportunity to gain invaluable experience on a professional platform while at the same time unearthing some of the most outstanding design talent in the region.

Baptiste Giabiconi kate moss just cavalli I swear Kate Moss  must have to beat designers off with a stick. Every season she gets so many campaigns and Spring Summer 2010 is looking to be business as usual. She stars alongside Karl Lagerfeld's man candy, Baptiste Giabiconi.  This marks consecutive seasons that Kate Moss has been the face of Just Cavalli.

, Georgia May Jagger's ads for Versace Spring Summer 2010 have been released. The campaign was shot by Mario Testino. on the internets most popular fashion forum, TheFashionSpot opinions on the campaign are  mixed. one user described it as " Bright colors, nice pose, unusual angle of her body. It's a huge step up from the past seasons" while another said "Freaking love it for some reason. the colours are fantastic."  However, not all of the users were as positive. Salvatore said, "I hate to judge so early, but it looks kind of tacky."

As you already know when Georgia May Jagger won the British Fashion Award I was in major disagreement. georgia is a pretty girl, but model of the year is not accolade that I think  she deserves at the moment. I think my problem with Georgia May Jagger was aptly discussed by TigerRouge from TheFashionSpot.

"Yes, she's a beauty but she's yet to learn how to model like a pro, and in a way, that's only natural. The disadvantage of having a famous surname is that it allows you to step into campaigns before you've done your apprenticeship, where you learn how to model in editorials for foreign Marie Claire and Glamour before your big moment comes" – TigerRouge

I always get an excited tingly feeling when I see new  clothes from River Island. River Island is my not so secret obsession. These are the first images from the River Island Spring Summer 2010 look book and once again I am loving what im seeing. the military trend that dominated 2009 isn't  present in this collection. instead it is replaced by an almost preppy throwback to the late 1960's. I can't wait for this to hit stores.

The hottest Male model in the UK is…Sam Way.

24 December 2009 No Comments



The poll to vote for the Best British Male model of 2009 has finally closed and the winner is a bit of surprise but a good surprise. In 2009 Max Rogers landed the September cover Of Vogue Italia which is a huge accomplishment for any model, furthermore a male model, Danny Schwarz  had multiple campaigns shot by Mario Testino and Armani and a string of editorials, David Gandy  continued his dominance with his Dolce & Gabanna campaigns. However,  these three models were  beaten to the top spot by Sam Way.  I once heard someone say , " that you are no one until you have had a fragrance  ad on tv". Well this  year Sam Way has had two! He was the face of Diesels Only the Brave Campaign and he  was the face of Paco Rabanne's Black XS. Congrats to Sam. The Results of our Poll were as follows.

Sam Way 133 37%
David Gandy 126 35%
Danny Schwarz 56 16%
Max Rogers 22 6%
Jamie Dornan 6 2%
Eddie Tucker 6 2%
Jeremy Young 3 1%
Josh Beech 3 1%
Ollie Edwards 2 1%
