Colleen Saidman Yee

Occasionally you see somebody that just blows you away. I was looking to get a Rodney Yee yoga video and was checking out a youtube clip to see what it was like. An interview with his wife (above) was also on youtube. I had seen that face before. She is the yoga model Sweaty Betty and is just insanely beautiful even more so when you know her age-50.  She was talking about her yoga practice and I was hanging on her every word. Another inspiring woman!

Paris Apartment

Coco Chanel's Apartment



There is nothing prettier on this planet than apartments in Paris. The windows, the high ceilings and the grandeur. Today I dream of gliding out of bed and taking coffee on a little balcony looking out at the streets of Paris. Happy Monday!

Hope Jumper




Spent the day hanging out in the garden and making chocolate beetroot cake. Our little patio is a sun trap. Hope to be sneaking off to the pub for a pint in a bit. My new sweater from Hope is proving to be a wardrobe staple-worn with my all time favorite Helmut Lang jeans.

 Above is my favorite, Nars Jungle red. Applied, I instantly feel the power of red. Now I need to go have lunch with a girlfriend. Have a good day!

Favorite Denim

I had no idea that my favorite isabel marant gillet came with sleeves also! I think that Jessica Hart looks great. I love the easiness of this piece; it goes with everything and is great to layer with chunky knits and hoodies. It is one of the hardest working things in my closet. Wearing it with bare legs would be nice but still rainy and horrible in London.

Lucky number 7


Boots is a pharmacy in England that has a curiously amazing skincare line called no 7. About 4 years ago they released a serum(the one pictured above) and it reached cult status instantly selling out and causing(near)mass hysteria-it was even on the news. This cutting edge product is now on sale and I have just bought some. And...I woke up this morning with no frown line between my eyes. Not joking. I have tried so many creams and serums and the no 7 has just worked instantly. Hey if its good enough for Gwyneth Paltrow...

Kevin Aucoin was such a great make up artist. His ability to transform the face into a work of art is just amazing. Even though he died 10 years ago at the age of 40, he remains a huge inspiration in the creative world and those who knew him and worked with him, loved him. As a young teenager I received his book The Art of Make up for Christmas. This was what made me take my love of make up and fashion to another level. I still use his techniques that I learned all those years ago. Thank you Kevin.
