Photography by Luce

So my lack of blogging isn't great, but I have an excuse...

I recently started a photography night class at my local college (queue me acting like a mad women on a Tuesday getting to work at 8am rushing to my evening class for 5:30pm and finishing at 9pm!)

It's going really well so far and we are using blogs to create online scrap books to record our progress and inspiration.

Jenny Packham - Spring/Summer 12

I come baring the gift of another video for you all! With the blogging world frantically typing away bringing updates left, right and centre from New York Fashion Week, I thought I'd simply share one of my favourite shows so far.

Parisian Chic

Is it just me or is this new advert for Lancôme's new perfume ridiculously cheesy? Not that it's Emma Watson's fault, her acting can't be flawed...it's the storyline, it's the purple tint, it's the cheesy backing music, I could go on...! Perfume adverts should be dramatic, luxurious and seductive as this is what we want from a perfume. It's not just about the scent either, how many of you have your perfume bottles lined up on your dressing table? 


Below I have posted some of my favourite Parisian perfume adverts (not totally sure if Dior Midnight Poison is shot there, but it's still amazing) 

Chanel 5 - Audrey Tautou

Miss Dior Cherie - Natalie Portman

Dior Midnight Poison - Eva Green

Lanvin Fall 2011

Another amazing Fall 2011 campaign video from Lanvin. I love how Karen Elson and Raquel Zimmerman and the two male model are not trained dancers, and it has a natural playful feel to it, rather than structured and slick choreographed routine. The element of dance really does bring a lot more to the clothes! There are some stunning hats and bags in there as well, if only I had the money...

The best bit? Alber Elbaz making a cameo appearance at the end. SHAKE THAT ASS!?

The other Kate's wedding

As I said in my last post I've been away for the past two weeks without internet access so I'm just catching up on all my usual blogs/websites and have come across the official Kate Moss wedding photos by Mario Testino, which are absolutely stunning. I'll leave you with my favs:

Another Grappa for the road

I'm back from Croatia and I can't stress enough how much of an amazing two weeks I had travelling round the country. I thought I would share a few of my favourite photos with you.

Beautiful
