In a Sea of Darkness...


When the World Ends in a Sea of Darkness, Your Guerlain Rouge 6 L'Extrait Lip Color in Envie, Could Act as a Beacon of Light
Ok, can we just talk about how long it’s been since I’ve written to you all? And really, I would LOVE to make up some excuses, (Because who really doesn’t want a little empathy for something that is their own damn fault?) but that would be totally unacceptable. I love this blog, and I LOVE all you who read it and contribute to it loyally. Also, basically, it had been so long since I’d posted I had to dig my WORD doc out of my external hard drive named Olga; I’m not joking, that’s her name. She’s a big burly warrior of a woman/cyborg/robot/machine. (Yes, Hunti!) So I’m back, get your Origin’s orange/ginger scented “hug” out the microwave, grab a soy peppermint mocha (oh wait soy's bad for you now, "skinny" latte with skim milk), your fur, vintage “typing” rings and bracelets (everybody has some of those? Right? For typing long documents…) a throw, just grab sumthin’ jesus and let’s bitch!
Taken from Jezebel's website from "Modesty Week" article
SO there’s been a lot of craziness going around lately. American Apparel’s perpetual bullshit…again.  Modesty Week,  (Damn….I missed it! Was that happening during the week we followed Karley Sciortino to San Fransicso?) and Joan Smalls got onto the cover of Brazil’s first “black issue” of Vogue. (So…are we not gonna talk about destructive standards of beauty? It’s like givin someone who’s having a heart attack a band-aid. -Here’ ya go!- instead of fixing the damn problem and then being pissed of when they sue.)
Taken from Slutever.com Sciortino's newest t-shirt campaign! The arty person in me wants to take a moment to compare the two garments, however, that would be off topic.
All that being said, I actually have to say, now that I have the self-percribed duty of finding something interesting to write about, I am surprised at how the end of the year is just totally uninteresting. I mean, it is as if all the taste makers just kinda wait patiently for it all to be over with. The rest of the world gets their sequin dresses (or satin sheath dresses- um Spanx), and holiday sweaters, re-runs of who died, who was born, best of's and worst stills played over and over again. It feels like the interesting people just give up until the new year.  (I mean "pre-fall runway', really?)  Ok so fine, but make it interesting! (-throat clearing- Style.com) Sorry, but no one really cares what you plan on wearing during the end of the world. In theory, we would all be too busy, dying. However, thankfully,W comes to the rescue with this delectable photo story! (An end of the world look book a girl can give a shit about!)
The shoot was styled by Edward Enninful and photographed by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, and it was to die for. 

Rosamosario Sequin-embellished silk satin bodysuit! Body, Body, Body! 
Valentino Garavani Shoes! Werk! 
and 
Carine Gilson Couture. Oh! My!
Natalia Vodianova gives us the fiercest! She is bringing it with the MOST fanciful, romantic delights, while serving us the end of days, boredom realness.  Please enjoy, because I know my ostentatious  "Ooooooooos!" and "Ahhhhhhhss!" were heartfelt bursts of yearning and absolute joy. 
Oh and before I leave you to gaze, can I quote one of the beauty notes? "In a sea of darkness, a blast form Guerlain Rouge 6 L'Extrait Lip Color in Envie lights up a room." 
Um, can I just say, "Yes, yes it does."
