On the 18th Day of Christmas...
Having been hunting for a red jersey maxi dress since I saw Abbey Lee in one at LFW, I'm still at a loss: however this black Fendi one is just as cute and would look amazing with scruffy jacket and boots. It's a bit ridiculous of me to put a Judith Leiber bag on my wishlist, however I'm pretty certain the high street will have a decent variety of imitations any day now.

Twin-tastic
This editorial has been around for sometime now, but it remains one of my favourites, top 5 for 2009 you could say. Freja Beha Erichsen is one of my all time favourite models and this photoshoot from Twin magazine just blows my mind, she's so beautiful it hurts.

On the 9th Day of Christmas
The hardback (available from Amazon for a pricey £360) is sort of an homage to some of our era's sexiest women. Featuring the likes of Claudia Schiffer, Kate Moss, Adriana Lima, Britney Spears and Dita von Teese, Fraulein would make an amazing present for fashion/photography lovers alike.
Here are just a few of my favourite celebrity Ellen Von Unwerth shots:

ANTM
I really wish that the UK version was as good but it just isn't. Lisa Snowdon never says "girl, you need to learn how to smile with your eyes" (irritating but amazing all at the same time), Louis and Huggy don't even compare to Miss Jay and Nigel Barker and the girls are so dull it hurts.

Tim Walker: The Best of 2009
The photo's of our very own Georgia Jagger are stunning; it's unusual to see him work in black and white but it just proves that he's not a 'fantastical' fashion one trick pony.
US Harper's Bazaar, October 2009 (Tim Burton' Tricks and Treats)
Vogue Italia, August 2009 (Model: Georgia Jagger)
Vogue UK, November 2009 (Model: Malgosia Bela)

Have you ever seen something and regretted not making a note of it? If you know where I can get the necklace, I'd be forever grateful!

On The 1st Day of Christmas...
Accessories are definately my guilty pleasure and although this is more of a dream wishlist, one can always hope. I really love the Lanvin cuff; to me it's such a statement piece and would have to be worn with a really clean and simple outfit (and of course skyscraper heels - my favourite).
From (top left) clockwise: Marc Jacobs bag £4,100, Chloe python tote £1,745, Lanvin embellished bird cuff £585, Burberry Prorsum platform pumps £395, Albertus Swanepoel faux-fur cossack £265, Marc by Marc Jacobs skull necklace watch £150.
In the run-up to Christmas I'll be posting weekly wishlists with my favourite items around at the moment. What is everyone else going to be wishing for this Christmas (aside from a mistletoe moment)?

Alice In Wonderland
Mia Wasikowska - 'Alice'
Michael Sheen - 'White Rabbit'
One of my favourite men, Stephen Fry, does the voice of Cheshire Cat (who else could be so perfect?!) whilst Anne Hathaway plays White Queen. It's literally a starfest of a film - Alan Rickman, Matt Lucas, Barbara Windsor (go Brits) and of course Mrs Burton, Helena Bonham Carter.
Whilst I can't wait for the film I still haven't thought of a decently fantastical costume for friday night, any suggestions?

CFDA / Vogue Fashion Fund Awards
Jessica Stam
Chanel Iman and Thakoon
Alexa Chung and Jason Wu
I particularly love Coco Rocha and Jessica Stam's outfits; they're two models who is my eyes always get it right. Coco really rocks the whole red lips / Morticia Adams-esque hair look - even though I did love her as a redhead.

The Young, The Free & The Untamed
The interview with Snoop Dogg (page 128) is actually really interesting and for a, err, insightful read try There Will Be Blood (page 124) - I'll let you decide for yourselves.

Kristen Stuart: Girl Crush
I really, really REALLY want this issue of Interview. Kristen Stewart caught my eye in Into The Wild and now she's been catapulted into superstardom thanks to the Twilight films.
It's no bad thing, she's incredibly beautiful and doesn't take any bullshit (check out Dazed and Confused October issue). I can't wait to see her in Adventureland and the new Joan Jett epic; although I'm so not keen on the mullet (please god don't make the mullet 'Springs essential hair cut')
She is perfect for fashion and I think this photoshoot explains itself wordlessly.
