To be cruel is to be kind

An example of how a flawless Luella handbag looks like

An example of how a flawless Luella handbag appears to the eye

Dear my beloved Luella Handbag,

Oh Luella! Oh my Lovely Luella! Even though I don’t even know your name for sure, (because your tag has fallen out unexpectedly when I brought you home); that does not mean that I do not love you. In fact, my love for you is deeper than an ocean and more infinite than infinity. I was tremendously shocked today to find that your flawless self has become… defected! Oh, my Lovely! Tell me – your true and only love – why art thou scratched? I know my true-blue shabby hobo style, which includes a daily routine of wearing a worn-to-shreds Tee (Not By Alexander Wang), naturally faded-to-grey Ksubi jeans and vintage-looking not-vintage shoes, does not deserve a complimentary accessory like you, but that does not mean that you have to blend in with my ruggedness by destructing yourself to match my poor standards. I appreciate your almighty thoughtfulness and your overly-kind gesture, but really, if you want to be kind to me, please continue being cruel to me by maintaining your perfectly impeccable appearance. I would very much be grateful of you forever and ever.

Kisses and Hugs,
-Your Lover-

Anna Kuchkina – Model/Photographer/Student

Mysterious Dark Beauty

Mysterious Dark Beauty

Dear Anna,

Oh… Please forgive me for being so nosy for wanting to invade your personal sphere, but recently, I was sharing a deep conversation amongst a friend in regards to a handful of our favourite models. I was stunned to learn more about you – in particular your educational background and interest on photography. In the hopes of learning even more about the true you – not from a second hand source – I am writing this letter to ask you:

  • Why did you choose to study psychology?
  • What has your study on psychology taught you in life?
  • How have your experiences in modelling changed you?
  • When did your interest in photography begin?
  • What are your inspirations?

Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours most sincerely,
-Yulya-

Hottest Letter In Town

Hello, I love You! Won't You Tell Me Your Name?

Hello, I love You! Won't You Tell Me Your Name?

Dear Lane Crawford,

Sorry to be so whiny like my old grandma, but as an admirer of Sarah’s ever so striking style, I just have to point out these unjust and unreasonable imperfections in regards to this new feature called Fashion Director’s Video Diary on your wonderful website. Firstly, please cut out the runway only videos. Without Sarah’s ingenious insights, these feel and are completely superfluous. Secondly, although Sarah’s lovely lips are oh-so-delectable and that her style is ever so impeccable, we need to see more of her gorgeous face. Please don’t hide it away from us any longer! Thirdly, please consider a full screen and HQ option. That’ll allow us to fully experience the true hypnotic power of Sarah the clothes as presented in the video. Am I right?

Now that I’m through with my complaints constructive criticism, let’s say something nice: I really enjoyed the close up pics of the clothes as well as Sarah’s poise, insight and style in the video. She really shed us light this Spring/Summer 2010. We truly cannot wait till 21 Jan for the next instalment of sizzling style.

Yours most truthfully,
-Concerned Buyer, Blogger and Wannabe Adviser-

Dear Vlad,

Are you sending me a sign? Do you want me? Do you want me super badly? Is that why you keep on appearing on my Suggestion list on facebook even though I had been ‘ignoring’ you?

Yours truly,
-Potential Associate/Partner-in-crime-

Lucia Dvorská for Life

Lucia Dvorská Wears a Bloomingdales Aqua Floral Laser-Cut Halter Swim Top

Dear Robert,

Please do not say I never consider for your welfare and that I only like to toy with your feelings and make your life miserable by parading Mathias you-know-who and loads of perfection in front of you. On the contrary of what you see on the surface, your happiness is indeed on the very top of my never-ending to-do list – just hidden deep down beneath me. Please accept this truck-load of images of Lucia as a token of my appreciation for your extreme effort on this blog.

Calling Paulo Melim Andersson

Dear Paulo,

Please pop in, Paulo!

Dear Paulo (or maybe Paolo?), Even though I don’t even know for sure how to spell your name (coz Google search results confuses me), I really really miss you and your work. Where are you working now? I want to stalk you! I want to wear you! Lots of love, -your fan-

Picture Perfect

Spanish model Sheila Márquez with boyfriend Christian Brylle

Dear Robert,

Since I don’t get you-know-who this month, I’m going to take your most beloved further away from you. Hohohohoooo!!! In order to keep you informed of reality and not the dream world, I HAVE to tell you this and there is no kind way to say this, so I’m going to say this directly: Sheila already has a boyfriend – Danish model and photographer Christian Brylle – and they are 100% happily in love!!! Recently, the good looking Gucci boy worked together with Sheila, the super Stylist, for V61. Together, the cute couple produced a love child some of the most amazing photographs for a photo shoot entitled Copenhagen. So please accept your fate and move on!

Yours most kindly,
-Your Mental Adviser-

P.S. I mean no harm. Really!
