Photos of Paris flood, 1910

The 1910 Great Flood of Paris was a catastrophe in which the Seine River, carrying winter rains from its tributaries, flooded Paris, France, and several nearby communities.

In late January 1910, following months of high rainfall, the Seine River flooded the French capital when water pushed upwards from overflowing sewers and subway tunnels, and seeped into basements through fully saturated soil. The waters did not overflow the river's banks within the city, but flooded Paris through tunnels, sewers, and drains. In neighbouring towns both east and west of the capital, the river rose above its banks and flooded the surrounding terrain directly. [More on Wikipedia, via]

(Vogue US Sept 2011, all photos by Mario Testino)

While flipping through the big fat September issue of Vogue US, I came accross these beautiful pictures of Kate Moss's summer wedding by legendary photographer, Mario Testino.  They are just too beautiful not to share!!  I guess that's part of the perks with being a supermodel: you can be assure to have all the gowns, the deco, the photo and venue will be taken care of by your celebrity friends that also happen to be the best in the industry.  And everything featured on Vogue's most important issue of the year!!!

Ah...I wish I can just call up Stella McCartney and ask her to design Ayden's outfit for whatever occasion that's coming up...hah...the closest I got was a few pieces from her last collaboration with Gap!

Korean War

The Korean War (25 June 1950 – armistice signed 27 July 1953) was a conventional war between South Korea, supported by the United Nations, and North Korea, supported by the People's Republic of China (PRC), with military material aid from the Soviet Union. The war was a result of the physical division of Korea by an agreement of the victorious Allies at the conclusion of the Pacific War at the end of World War II. The Korean peninsula was ruled by Japan from 1910 until the end of World War II. Following the surrender of Japan in 1945, American administrators divided the peninsula along the 38th Parallel, with United States troops occupying the southern part and Soviet troops occupying the northern part.

HAIR TREND - Hair Turban





Are scarf turbans still "in"?  I was just wondering if it's strictly a thing of a few seasons ago or is it still a fashionable hairstyle?  I recall first seeing it on the runway of Prada Spring 2007, then on Carrie in Sex & the City 2, then on every trendsetting celebrity and blogger...am I really the last one to sport this style?

Ah...who cares?  I'm probably the first one to wear a scarf turban in Brossard (not that I consider this suburb of Montreal anywhere close to a fashion capital)!!!

GIRL CRUSH - Natalia Kills










Natalia Kills has a killer voice, style and attitude!  This British singer/songwriter, who's real name is Keery-Fisher, has just released her first album Perfectionist earlier this spring.  My two favorite singles from the album, Wonderland and Mirrors, are instant hits on the chart!

Apart from her musical talent, Natalia is not like most other upcoming female pop stars: she's sexy and fierce.  Her fashion inspiration seems to be mostly dedicated to electric rock from the 80's with moto leather jackets, bodysuits and fuschia lips.  And the girl has equal strong bone structure and eyebrows to match the attitue!  Not exactly the girl next door...but exactly the rockstar next door!!

Beyonce and Jay-Z are Having A Baby

    So the word is that at the VMA's Beyonce subliminally informed the world that she is pregnant by rubbing her stomach and holding her stomach as if she is pregnant on the black carpet of the show. Another indication that the couple our pregnant is after Beyonce rubbed her stomach after her performance Kanye West was embracing Jay-Z in congratulations and both had huge smiles on their faces.
    I am exited for the couple because the idea of Beyonce getting pregnant have been under discussion for some months now and now the time have finally come when the talk and stop being talk and turn into a reality.
   The crazy part is how munch attention this topic has gotten all over the world. Things have even gotten so bad that Beyonce and Jay-z's baby has it's own Twitter account called @BeyJayFetus LMAO. I can't wait to see what the baby looks like and see which parent's traits are dominant. Only time will tell and Congratulations to Beyonce and Jay-Z.
