Mugler

Peaks of man flesh and thigh high socks... just what I needed to cure my hangover! Each piece is like a regular, everyday item that has evolved and been remixed through simple cutting out and extensions. Dangerously on the verge of becoming too femme if they had cut out any more.

I love that chalky blue.

Azealia Banks "1991"

You know that person that drunkenly stumbles up to the DJ and won't give up on hearin' dey jaym? Tonight I will be that person and tonight the song will be "1991" by my girl Azealia.

Just when I thought I couldn't love her any more, she rocks a pair of jelly shoes at The Serpentine Gallery in London.

John Lawrence Sullivan

The pyjama stripes have my eyelids heavy but luckily the burst of primary colours has made up for what these pieces are seriously lacking. I love the man clutch and the visible zip on the red trousers. Draws my eye straight in to an area I never look at...

Trends are starting to appear as we get through more shows. Boys, get used to the waistline creeping a little higher and muscle tees (sleeveless with no scoop neckline, thank goddess)!

Sorority @ SDNZ Nationals

Finally the videos of the dance crews we actually give a Kim K's ass about are starting to surface online. This is Sorority from the Royal Family killing it in the Varsity division.

Even with two of my poisons, burgundy and overplayed Rihanna songs, they still manage to have me in awe at their moves. See if 1:40 has you dead on the floor too.

Givenchy FW12/13 Campaign

Cleverly executed are the new ad campaigns for the brand's Fall Winter 2012 collection. What I like most about these ads is that the line of separation between the images is visible, yet it's still difficult to tell whose leg belongs to who.

I was never a big supporter of the male skirt (living in Auckland you'd never get away with it) but after seeing this guy dancing and twirling in his... it looks like too much fun to resist.

Versace

I don't know about y'all but I'm not so warriored about the clothing; all I'm looking at are them see-through briefs! Hello my handsome champions!

When I saw last seasons women's collection with the strong forms and hints of gold, I had a feeling the designs would evolve into this. Donatella knows how to pick a theme and run with it, but not so fast that we're left in her dust wondering what the fuck is going on.

Marc Jacobs FW12/13 Campaign

 

I love this! They're like teenage pimps rebelling and forming a wiccan group.

Conor Maynard "Vegas Girl"

A nice smooth follow up to his first single "Can't Say No". Although he's a bit nerdy and an undercover ginger, the boys got swag. At one point (1:49) he sounds exactly like Justin Timberlake!

But I'm not feeling the intro scene. When do you ever stop to chat with someone after you've bumped into them? And if you weren't willing to give up your phone number, why would you pose for a picture? So creepy! It's a simple sorry then ya walk on!

Frankie Morello

This is so ghetto fag-u-lous! Nobody told me Antoine Dodson was designing now! It's like being at Chris Brown's Coming Out party. I love it! 

There's low-ridden lace and sequined panties and shirts under singlets. I knew someday shirts under singlets would happen. Just look at me back in March out at dinner. Boom.

What's worse than watching Shortland Street?

Spotting a friend on Shortland Street. 

But even worse than both of those things is the horrible excuse for a show that plays on The Erin Simpson Show... Ruby. (As you can tell, I've been up to all sorts of exciting things for the first week of my uni break!)

Andrea Pompilio

The button up shirt and the elastic banded short...

If there is anyone that believes these two should not be wed, speak now or forever hold your peace... By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife! Yay, couple of the year for sure!

Midnight Red "Hell Yeah" Video

The video for their current single "Hell Yeah" has all the necessary elements to make it successful in the mainstream charts; a party scene at a little motel with lots of dancing and random people dressed up in costume. (I diss but secretly I want to go to a party like this!)

When a fashion trend is adopted by South Auckland, you know it's no longer cool and the same thing applies to a boy band doing the dougie... no longer gangsta! (0:47)

Maroon 5 "One More Night"

Finally a good Maroon 5 song! Unlike the recent feature hits "Payphone" and "Stereo Hearts" which both had urban vibes, this sounds way more like the bands old stuff. 'Tas that sexy kind of swag about it. The kind Maroon 5 had before Adam Levine's head exploded.

The video is due out in three days! Exciting!

Emma Stone @ Spider-Man Paris Premiere

Who is responsible for biting my cutesy quirky Emma Stone and transforming her into this beautiful, vampy, seductress?! The actress turned heads in this embellished Gucci gown with her asymmetric faux bob simply amping the look.

I honestly feel like if she were to speak, a Transylvanian accent would come out.

Kelly Osbourne hot in LA

I tune into Fashion Police every week to see what she's wearing because lately I've been in such awe of her style. One minute she's rockin' punk and edgy and the next she's elegant mod, but she manages to pull it all without looking like a complete schitzo. I'm also glad she keeps touching up the purple hair because it suits her colouring so well! She just needs to look up and SMILE WOMAN!

I honestly love this girl. She could lay off on the old use of the word *annoying English accent* "beautiful!" but aside from that, she is, as of this moment, perfect to me.

Time to start watching True Blood again

For some crazy reason I stopped watching True Blood after a few episodes into season four. It's gotten to the point where I hear "Sookie" and my mind tells me that ain't right, it's Snooki!

I avoided all the posters and teasers until yesterday... and now I'm hooked once again. I need to catch up! And what better time to watch a complete season of your favourite show than in Winter when you're on a uni break for five weeks? They are only twelve episode seasons anyway so I'll be done in about two days.

Maybe less.

Owl City & Carly Rae Jepsen "Good Time"

The could-be-maybe one hit wonder has teamed up with a singer who knows too well about one hit wonders. Adam Young AKA Owl City was responsible for "Fireflies" a few years ago and lends his annoying robotic, over pronouncing, thick American accent to the song. It's no "Call Me Maybe" but it is a poppy radio hit.

I hear it and I see rollerblades and beaches and three scoop ice-creams but I'm not even sure I actually like it. But that day will come, when I'm on a long distance drive and it's playing on two stations at once, and I won't have a choice but to enjoy it.

J.W. Anderson

Sometimes the line between mens and womens fashion can be blurry or like in this collection the line can be told to fuck right off. There is more than just a hint of femininity with everything being quite tight, short and sheer.

The designer believes the male thigh is a part of the body that is quite macho and masculine and needs to be shown off... and I couldn't agree more. They're called shorts for a reason!

Much Music Awards 2012

The Much Music Video Awards never pull in too many big names at once and I blame it on the fact that it's a Canadian music channel.

Being a local, nothing was going to stop Justin Bieber from attending and performing. Not even a kilometre road of wet tar, which he rolled down to get to the carpet. Those jeans need to be slimmed up a little and while I'm at it, chuck out the gold stage gloves... Justin, although you bear an uncanny resemblance to her frame, you are not 2008 Lady Gaga!

Aside from her hair looking like less of a wig, Selena Gomez hasn't come very far from last years get up. Same little pose, same little mini and same little troll face.

And I ain't done yet. Continue... »

Shia LaBeouf in "Fjögur píanó" Video

Good or bad, I was always going to like this with Shia's nude bodeh making an appearance.

This is a beautiful and compelling music video that follows a couple locked in a never-ending cycle of addiction and desire. It's confusing and strange at times but this just adds to the overall effect of the story.

Rita Ora's Wardrobe Malfunction

Fans were treated during Rita's performance of "RIP" "NIP" at the Lovebox festival last weekend. The Janet J nip slip had the crowd singing "I wanna bitty and bullshit, and bitty and bullshit!"

Even if her bustier had stayed in place, I can still see through her pants.

A&F Models "Call Me Maybe"

For anyone doubting the sexuality of any Abercrombie & Fitch model, you now have your answer. The perfect ingredients to every fags dreams. "Call Me Maybe" and shirtless hunks.

Hunk is such a funny word.

Tanel Bedrossiantz in Horst

In a story shot by Markus Jans and styled by Ingo Nahrwold, Horst magazine celebrates Jean Paul Gaultier in their latest issue. I'm digging this Abba outfit. Jumpsuit + flares = my death.

Nancy Sinatra said it best. Are you ready boots? Start walkin!
