Tattoo

I am obsessed with tattoos. I only have 2 but I've never really wanted to rush them as I've got my whole life ahead of me...and I kinda like the idea of getting tattooed around the world (not random artists though) and that requires a ton of research..because a tatt is for life!!

My first ever tattoo was 3 stars on my right foot (different sizes). Then a diamond on my right wrist. I could sit here and give you some long poetic story (there is one) but I won't. They both do mean something to me.

I love small and slight subtle pieces but also want 1 large piece for my left side on my ribcage. Saira Hunjan is the artist I would love to tattoo me but unfortunately she's retired and ventured into collaborations with fashion labels etc (my heart weeps). Her art is inspired by indian henna art and culture. She uses colour and geometrics to add intricate detail to her pieces and they are truly beautiful. Sigh, no rush though!

Met ball 2012

THIS YEARS MET BALL WAS BORING - I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO LADY GAGA INSPIRED LOOKS. MY FAVOURITE HAS BE MARY-KATE OLSEN'S SILK VAMPY NUMBER.  I JUST LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT IT FROM THE TAILORING TO THE FABRIC..AND EVEN HER ELECTRIFIED HAIR.

Beauty is skin deep  + these images by Toyin Odutola are vivid and quite haunting, but I like them.

Candy coated tents

Designed to stick out like a sore thumb Field Candy tents are amazing; but is this a new idea? and why has no one else (in the art world) attempted this + if they have why are people content with plain tents. Well whatever the answer is, I want one! I really don't like camping..but I can do it in my room, does that count??
