The Loh-Down

See you in a month!


Only one more sleep until I board a 14 hour and 45 minute flight to Abu Dhabi and then a much shorter and more bearable 7 hour and 50 minute flight to London. I could not be anymore excited. When I left work at 7pm this evening, a giant weight was lifted off my shoulders just because I could actually properly look forward to this trip.  Loose end ties, emails answered - now my only job is to stop thinking about work and get packing.

I absolutely hate packing.  It's no secret I love my clothes, I've never been one to plan outfits but am more of a spontaneous dresser which makes packing so much more difficult.  Like when one applies makeup - less is best (most of the time anyway), I'll attempt to apply the same strategy with my luggage especially since I know I want to purchase.


Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.  Keep safe and it won't be long before I'm home!

Karlie Kloss x Vogue Italia

Karlie Kloss' December photo shoot for Vogue Italia is causing uproar on the internet and once again we have seen the "Skinny model" debate open up.  Scroll through the comments on YouTube and you can read mixed views. Yes, all models defend and declare themselves as being "naturally skinny" but I have a feeling in this case it is true.  

In interviews, the nineteen year-old Karlie talks of her active lifestyle juggling full-time school and activities such as ballet, hockey whilst pursuing a modelling career.  By looking at that six-pack, somehow I don't think this girl is one of the poor souls who starve themselves for the sake of their careers.

Despite this, do you want to be able to view this video, let alone allow someone young and impressionable?

Shutterbug


Perk up your outfit with this snaptastic pendant because sometimes Lomos are just too heavy and bothersome to have hanging on your neck all night long.  Get yours here.

Surviving the silly season


This little pack would be very very handy to have on one's beside table, within arm's reach. That way you can party hardy as much as you want and don't have to worry about looking like shit the next day because let's be honest, it's what everyone fears after a bender.
