My rock and roll Saturday has been filled with watching ballet clips on YouTube. Found this video of Rubies - Paris Opera production. I’m certain the Royal Ballet’s production of Jewels will be spectacular! I have a ticket for the closing night. Cannot wait! @royaloperahouse

“The Ones You Didn’t Write – The Maybach Car” Art Instillation

In a city without cars, Julian Schnabel’s Venice Biennale work, The Ones You Didn’t Write – The Maybach Car”, certainly stands out. The work, essentially a vandalized test car, drawings by Vahakn Arslanian inside the windows and Schnabel’s scrawl on the body. It has also been shot at. A take on luxury, and a whole lot more.

Believe it or not, this is a Cath Kidston dress! I was a bit annoyed by the staff at the store I was at today. They wouldn’t let me take a photo of a display to tweet about…even though I bought above dress for a gift. People tweeting from your store is a good thing, Cath!

ASOS selling stuff destined for TK Maxx at a higher price?! Eekers! Saw this on ASOS’ Facebook wall this evening. Wonder how ASOS will explain!

Hailee Steinfeld (in Prada above), face of Miu Miu AW 2011. Great call by Miuccia Prada + team. I look forward to seeing more of her on screen. She was the thing I liked most in True Grit! I hope her career in Hollywood is ‘all’ Natalie Portman, free of any Lindsay Lohan-ness. Today Wikipedia told me her grandfather is Filipino. We have something in common!

This Kate Spade bag is called ‘Jezibel’. LOVE IT. Perfect summer tote. Flamingo, Barbie pink absolutely rules… Saw this on, of all places, the Zappos site. Since when did they start carrying higher end brands?!

Soccer, the only sport where ‘short’ people can take on giants? Lionel Messi, 5ft6 1/2, Edwin V.S. 6ft5. All hail Messi!

I’d love to have this necklace in my collection of necklaces. Not likely to happen unless we won the lottery. It would probably cost a month’s salary!

Came across this dress on Topshop’s site while doing research for work (why can’t all my work revolve around looking at clothes?). I love the color and cut. Sadly, I may be a few years to old for this…

We went sailing with the Greek family we were staying with on holiday. I love how this photo I took of our friend Isabel turned out. It totally captures the mood of our day out on the Aegean.

Took this photo on the Greek island of Spetses. The shepherd and his flock seemed to come out of nowhere! It was the last thing I expected to see amongst restaurants and holiday homes.

In absolute shambles after watching this Chrome commercial. It reminds me of my wonderful sisters and childhood.

I LOVE vintage! I bought this last week from @rag_magpie at the monthly Chiswick Bazaar. Two things drew me in - bow and pleated sleeves. Can’t wait to wear with my denim flares and brown platform heels.

Two weeks have passed and I’m still suffering from Royal Wedding comedown. Here’s the only decent video I shot on the day, on the Mall. Her Majesty, the Queen, rolls by in her fancy carriage. Being short sucks in crowds.

Ricky Nelson’s Hello Mary Lou. This song has been in my head all afternoon. Reminds me of family road trips.
