American model Shelby Keeton in Zeki Triko’s Sizzling Swimwear.
For 2009, Turkish designer Ziko Başeskioğlu presents his signature super streamlined and super sexy swimwear collection for his swimwear and lingerie label Zeki Triko. Vibrant colours and seductive cuts are on display under the lens of Australian photographer and director Daniela Federici. Infusing a touch of the natural with the artificial, the collection features bold graphic prints (stylised floral patterns, retro graphics and bold blocks of colours) adorned by metallic deco as well as sparkling Swarovski crystals. The resulting look, as revealed by American model Shelby Keeton’s all alluring poses, is contemporary yet fresh and free of all the complexity in modern life.

Canadian Model Jessica Stam shows off Christian Diors Makeup Holiday Collection 2009
This is an elaboration on my last post in regards to making a fool out of myself in front of the ever so smart ‘n’ chic Chanel sales staff. For example: four weeks ago or so, I asked the flawless ladies at the makeup counter whether they sell that exquisite miniature cage, which Brazilian model Isabeli Fontana holds oh-so-divinely in the Chanel Christmas 2009 ad campaign. The paranormal look, which I found on her face, was certainly not the answer I was looking for. If Lanvin sells gorgeous porcelain dolls and Christian Dior hypnotises us with super striking Stam and the exquisite Swarovski crystal encrusted lipgloss/pendant; why does Chanel stay so everlastingly classical in terms of packaging the cosmetic line for special occasions like Christmas? Well… Afterall, it comes once a year only, no? Just a thought.

Alexander McQueen's skull-motif is simply striking!
Skull! Skull! Oh, skull! It’s scary, but oh… we just love to play with fire! When it comes to this bloodcurdling subject matter, we certainly cannot go past the mighty king and queen of this Gothic greatness – the British designer Alexander McQueen. Available on his wonderful website and in stores now is an exquisite jewellery selection, which exhibits a touch of our love for the six letter word – d.a.n.g.e.r. Presented in the picture above from top left (clockwise) are red double wrap skull charm bracelet, silver skull ring, skull crystal drop earring, red punk heart cuff, icon charm bracelet, gold skull ring and fork and spoon drop earrings. My pick from the pack is definitely the skull ring! I just love the Swarovski crystal stuffing in the eye. So rich, so exquisite! Living on the dark side? Don’t say it. Live it, wear it!
