Recently discovered the AH-MAH-ZING-LY AMAZE world of German fashion icon Bonnie Strange.
Bonnie Strange is a photographer. Bonnie Strange is a fashion icon. Bonnie Strange is my new lover!! I cant even express how obsessed I am with her style and photographs!! She's everything.. LITERALLY!!
Strange has that whole Debbie Harry/Madonna circa 80's/glam rock vibe going.. Which KILLS me!!
I DIE for her pop art influenced photographs. As for her look, Strange loves to change it up from time to time, rocking an organge frock recently.. TDF = TO DIE FOR!! Her fashion choices are SO fun, quirky and bizarre!!
She's currently starting a band called Bonnie Strange and the Lovers, with 6 gay guys.. I personally think she's talking me!!
If you dont believe me, take a look below.. however lease note, you WILL experience a visual orgasm!!
Her looks are sometimes seemingly SO outlandish that it's like MAGIC! You dont believe it can be pulled off, yet she does, and it's AMAZING!! She has that Strange Magic!!
P.s I hope one day we'll be BFF's, like her and Peter, and that she'd braid my hair, slap me and call me a BETCH from time to time.. what a PURFECT world that would be!!
For more updates from Strange follow her on her blogs Strange Ambition and Bonnie Strange Photography
p.s i dont own these pictures, they are the property of the AH-MAH-ZING Bonnie Strange!!

Grandiose delusions are characterized by fantastical beliefs that one is famous, omnipotent, or otherwise very powerful. The delusions are generally fantastic, often with a supernatural, science-fictional, or religious bent.In colloquial usage, one who is said to have 'delusions of grandeur' is considered to be one who overestimates one's own abilities, talents or situation. This is generally due to excessive pride, rather than any actual delusions.

Lindsay Lohan for Philipp Plein
The previous Fashion Week left the international blogsphere buzzing with the news of Lindsay Lohan's return to fashion and print.. besides tearing up Kanye West's collection.. Bless him for trying though.
The news that Lindsay would model for designer Philipp Plein came as a suprise, as well, her track record was less than perfect last year, with all her legal problems.. It obvz just goes to show that no publicity is bad publicity!!
So the images have finally arrived, and I'll be the first to admit that she looks AMAZE!! She is PURFECTION.. I cant actaully even deal!!
The last the fashion world heard from Lindsay was her disasterous partnering with Ungaro, which the fashion house still hasn't been able to come back from!
The campaign exploits Lindsay main features perfectly.. Her hair and those legs which run for days!!
I ADORE the fact that it features an All American girl in a more Mediteranian setting.. Think An American in French Riveria.. PERFECTION!!
Philipp Plein featured the beauts Mischa Barton in his campaign, reviving her career after her untimely exit from The OC (which I'm still hung up on.. RIP), lets just hope that this campaign will do the same for Lindz..
There's really only one thing left to say.. Well come back, boo!!

Secret Style Crush: Bubble from Ab Fab.
The return of Absolutely Fabulous marks the return of my alter ego Patsy Stone, and the one and only trendsetter, Bubble!! *Does crazy dance in excitement*
Bubble, the assistant to Edina Monsoon, is know for.. well, her fashionable choice, which are PERFECTION!!
Bubble's look is a combination of Twiggy and Pippy Longstocking. It's like 5th grader meets Vogue's walk-in closet, which basically means EVERYTHING!!
Debuting in the 90's Ab Fab is purfection for anyone wanting to get in on the 90's trend. Trends that Bubble has sported: Creepers; oversized fur coats; an ensemble with the American flag print, and an outfit where she basically dresses up as a Sesame Street character, which makes her my inspiration, obvz!
Someone who's inspired by Bubble, or who is known for their severe fashion risks (which in my opinion are always pulled off):
Tavi Gevinson, OBVZ! She even made me want to become a quirky 14 year old girl.. which at 19 I've come to the realisation isn't happening.. BOO YOU WHORE!!
Personally I think Tavi is Bubble's secret daughter.. that or she's been performing secret seances to contact Bub's for style advise!!
Set inspired by Bubble:

LookBook Update: Versace for H&M inspired Look
So last night i went to see the much anticipated (well at least for me) The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (US edition, obvz).
The movie was HELLA GOOD!! I've decided that Rooney Mara is quite possibly EVERYTHING that i could need.. EVERYTHING!!
Now on to more important things, the look above is what i decided to wear the movies. I played into my grandiose delusions and decided to dress up like I was going to the premiere (although they'd probably question what i was wearing and my sanity for that matter!!).
The look is inspired by the Versace for H&M collections, both the Spring/Summer and Cruise collections.
Now i know just meantioning the Cruise collection has American Versace enthusiasts crying as it wasnt offered in the States, but I'm here to tell you to hush up, as I was not able to get my hands on a single piece.. Now that's something to cry about.. FO REALZ!!http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif
My overly ornamented neckline is an ode to the genius of Riccardo Tisci for Givenchy, with the studded neckline and multiple chains.. which i just cant seem to get enough of!!
Hope you enjoyed the pictures of me SMIZING.. you better, cause I practised really hard!!

Possibly The Greatest Thing EVER: Sky Ferreira as Her Madgesty
Firstly, I love V Magazine, they can literally do no wrong.. Except for the cover of this issue, which features Justin Bieber, but he’s dressed in Mugler, so I supposed a negative and a positive cancel each other out, and I’m willing to forgive their mistake.. Let’s just regard this as a minor hiccup.
This year for their annual Music Issue, they decided to feature hipster songstress Sky Ferreira dolled up like pop royalty Madonna.
Being as I am a 14 year old girl (on the inside at least), I am OBSESSED with Sky; the way she dresses, and don’t even get me started on her hair.. it’s EVERYTHING!! I’VE GOT MAD LOVE FOR HER!!
In a shoot, shot by famed fashion photographer Mario Testino, it pictures pop princess Sky in early Madonna get-up, basically telling people to pay attention, cause this BETCH is great and will be here to stay, just like the inspiration Her Madgesty.
Love how it depicts Madonna in her early phases, like the ‘Virgin’ phase; the ‘Erotic’ phase; and the ‘Desperately Seeking Susan’ phase and OBVZ the most iconic ’Vogue’ phase.
Sky OWNS this spread, WERK!!
