For Love and Lemons Pure Dress

It's been a while since I've seen something that takes my breath away, but this Pure dress from For Love and Lemons totally does it for me. Sold out on Nasty Gal, I zipped over to TheTrendBoutique.com to scoop up my size!  At least with this white, I can get away with a stain. I spill so much I should invest in this NEVERWET  spray. Though, if I bought that, I'd just get dirty on purpose! Watch the video, and be prepared to be hypnotised: 

Partyskirts FW 2013 Lookbook

Girly girls love skirts. I can vouch for this tribe, since wearing a  circle/skater/party skirt gives me a big Sailor Moon personality punch.  I learned about Partyskirts through Fashionmagazine.com's Prom guide, (It was for work! I swear!) and saw their ultra adorable lookbook for spring 2013.  You don't have to be in high school to appreciate these minis. Made from dupioni silk, the skirts have an eye-catching sheen and strong structure. 

Kenzo AW13 Lookbook

It's kind of ridiculous to be thinking of Fall the high heat of the summer, but here we are with Kenzo's deliciously surreal lookbook.  Creative directors Humberto Leon and Carol Lim worked on their latest images with Maurizio Cattelan, Pierpaolo Ferrari and Micol Talso of Toilet Paper Magazine. The ads star actress Rinko Kikuchi and model Sean O’Pry. Click through for pictures of kittens in shoes...

The Bling Ring : Most disappointing movie of the summer

You know when you're really excited to see a movie, so much that, you get your friends amped up too? You talk about it forever, and when the time comes to see it, it doesn't hold up? I did this to my friend Lauren, and it was so embarrassing. As in, I'd look at her every time something "kind of" funny happened to gauge her reaction. At least the air conditioning was awesome.

My anticipation for the Bling Ring didn't ruin this movie for me, it ruined itself. All of the best parts were in the trailers. Maybe it's just what we're used to these days, quick editing and fast transitions with snappy, charming and witty characters. Unlike Coppola's earlier films that are heartbreaking and visually interesting, this movie was making me feel embarrassed for the characters.

I don't understand how it got 61% on Rotten Tomatoes. Are reporters afraid of Sofia Coppola? Really?

The only scene I enjoyed was the robbery of Audrina Patridge's house, which slow panned in while the two main thieves Rebecca and Marc whizzed around the glass cube of a house like a couple of rats in a maze.

Rachel Bilson and Mischa Barton both have protested this movie (which made me want to see it more), for "ethical" reasons, but they really should have just seen it and told us how bad it was going to be if they didn't want us to watch it.

I'm going to stick to sci- fi flicks for instant movie watching gratification. Pacific Rim is out, and their mindless monsters actually look interesting.

If you were a little smarty pants this week, you would have seen that velociraptors had invaded Vogue.uk! Maybe they're promoting Jurassic Park 4? If you're familiar with the Konami code, you could get a little dino in a surprise chapeau whizzing by on your screen. Sadly, the're extinct from the internet, but have been preserved in screen shots for future generations. I'm not really a hat person, and I don't miss them pushing their style in my face.

 I gave the old code a shot, and the best hat I could get was this little red Aretha Franklin type bow pillbox. My first go was a tan knit tuque (not worth a screen capture)!  Scroll down for more lily lizards Isabella Blow would be proud of:
