Lana del Rey and Jaime King's Instagram Shoot

Here are two ladies that we are watching closely at the moment: Lana del Rey, the chanteuse of the moment, with the eclectic style and the love of Converse and Versace; and Jaime King, who plays the tortured and charming southern belle from trendy TV series Hart of Dixie. Both have something compelling and a bit broken about them. Both are beautiful. And both are photographed here with Instagram, securing their hipster credentials in one iphone click.

It was Jaime's birthday, so I have to assume that they are friends. And the photos were snapped by her husband, Kyle Newman. And it is Lana's car - an open top 1981 Mercedes. Kyle posted the pics with the heading, "Just some girls, and a car..."

Linda Evangelista for Chanel Glasses by Karl Lagerfeld

So I remember the 80s. And the amazing women who dominated fashion, striding the runways and onto the magazine covers of the decade. They were tall, broad, strong, powerful, beautiful in a confident manner that bore no argument. They were known by one name - Cindy, Naomi, Christy and Claudia. And the queen of them all was Linda. The transformer. The revolutionary. The one who said she didn't get out of bed for less than some astronomical sum of cash dollar. And now, nearly 30 years later, she is still all those things. And probably more. And is the new face of Chanel Eyewear.

Shot by Karl Lagerfeld. Art directed to within an inch of its life. This monochrome campaign reminds us of the 80s. Speaks volumes about Karl and Linda Evangelista. And reminds us how a strong beautiful woman only gets better with age.

As a speccy myself, I do love that eyewear has started to get the same investment, backing and campaign emphasis as the other accessory lines. It's only fair as nearly 40% of the developed world needs help in the  eye department. And who are we to pass up an opportunity for another designer accessory, hmm? I scoff in the face of laser eye surgery and embrace the glasses. Possibly these exact ones. You like?

Jennifer Lawrence in Victoria Beckham. Again.

Yay. Jennifer Lawrence, star of The Hunger Games, is a Victoria Beckham fan, just like us. She was on some international TV show yesterday and wore this cool dress from the main VB line, pairing it with YSL shoes and a fun attitude.

She showed off her amazing body, and the great back zip detail when she demonstrated her archery skills during the taping of the show. Apparently she is good enough to make the Olympic team after her training for the film. Love that. She's got skills!

And while we are on the subject, this morning, also in Victoria Backham on Wednesday night, was Alison Brie, from that extremely awesome TV series Community, and now in the Five Year Engagement movie with Emily Blunt. She wore the white and looked very lovely, it needs to be said. Actually, has anyone ever not looked good in a VB dress? Not so far, I don't think. Amazing.

Julia Roberts in Victoria, Victoria Beckham

It was the premier of the movie Jesus Henry Christ in LA on Wednesday evening. I was too busy to go as I was at &Union and Clarks in Bree St in Cape Town. Busy being an elderly hipster. You know how it is. But Julia Roberts and her niece Emma Roberts were there. And Julia was wearing one of my fantasy dresses by my fantasy friend, Victoria Beckham. It is from the Victoria, Victoria Beckham line and is a wonderful combination of classic and cool. Borderline elderly hipster really, with that collar and cuff detail. Perfect.

Emma also wore monochrome, sticking with the new trend for androgynous tuxedos. I like it. It's not YSL classic. But it is a nice accesible alternative. Well played ladies. And Julia, you can come down to Bree Street any time in that get up. Just ask for me.

Look of the Day Part 2: Leelee Sobieski in Jil Sander

This is pretty much my dream dress. Right there in front of you on that dark horse Leelee Sobieski. It is white and by Jil Sander (Raf Simons second last collection) and its starkness is its' perfection. I almost wanted to put a slim gold belt on it. But then I re-thought that idea. No. The beauty is in the simplicity.

This is the second time this week that Leelee has crept onto the blog. Last time it was for wearing a Maki Oh dress. And, while I applauded her, I also hated the styling. It was those white shoes. This time I hate the hair style. I know it is copied from the runway show, but I simply don't like it. Soz. But for the rest. Yes, yes, yes! Love this dress. Do you?

Look of the Day Part 1: Emily Blunt in Victoria Beckham and Jason Wu

The delightful Emily Blunt is out at the moment promoting her two new films Salmon Fishing in the Yemen and Five Year Engagement - the latter at the Tribeca Film Festival last night in New York. Where she wore this amazing Jason Wu black and green prom dress. 

I particularly like the belt. And the jade earrings. And the way she did her hair. Yes. I am enamoured of this look. I assume you are too. It's that good.

Earlier she had appeared on the Ellen Show wearing Victoria Beckham. Played a bit of golf, as you do, and generally looked incredible. It's that blue collar, right? Off-sets the drabness of the midi dress and rockets it into high-fashion. Love it. Amazing.

Katryn Kruger for Vogue Germany May 2012

Seriously, every day this kid seems to be getting bigger and bigger jobs. A year ago she was attending school in the sheltered and conservative northern suburbs of Cape Town. Now Katryn Kruger is being touted as a 'fresh face' in German Vogue, alongside other new models, Karlina Caune and Franziska Muller. And it is pretty clear that she is the dazzling star amongst them.

Shot by photographer Greg Kadel and styled by Nicola Knels, this desaturated series of photographs are beautiful and simple and beautiful.

The girls wear Dior, Valentino, Givenchy and Versace. This is not the first time that I have seen Katryn's hair styled this way. Interestingly it was done long before she made it big. I am going to try and get hold of those photos for you and post them to show you. Watch this space.
