Photographer Todd Selby is working on a film. “I’ve been working for a long time on figuring out a way to translate my photo and book projects and The Selby, into a moving image.” He hopes that the film will debut at The Sundance Film Festival. Exciting.
Every day of this week I will be talking about trends in P4 Morgon. If you are not a early bird like me you can listen to it here.
I wrote about it before, The Black Swan, and here is the trailer. Ah, I can not wait!
Another beautiful one. Marion Cotillard on the cover of Paris Vogue September 2010.
The fourth issue of Love Magazine is close to hitting the stands and here are the 8 covers. I think that I am going for the Sienna Miller one, or Alessandra Ambrosio. Which one do you like?
Today is a beautiful summer day in the Hamptons -I’m about to go for a swim in my red Zac Posen for Target bathing suit:
Today put me perfectly in the mood for one of my absolute favorite bands: Gung Ho. Check out their myspace: http://www.myspace.com/thisisgungho
The group consists of five dashing men who play “dirty rock and roll like your mother would never let you hear”
Some pics of the band:
Hi readers!, how is your summer? Mine is great. Relaxing and just calm as I want it. How are you liking the New York blog? I will be back in about 3 weeks. However, I thought I would give you a update of what is going on in my life and also what is new in the fashion world.
I wont be here for Stockholm fashion week but if you want to go here is the schedule for the shows.
Also, the New York and Paris schedules are up! Fantastic. Perhaps I will be at Paris fashion week.
Some new campaign are here as well. I have been waiting for the Stella McCartney campaign and here it is, so beautiful! Natalie Vodianova is just magical. This one is close to being my favorite this season. I love the simpleness with the playfullness, brilliant.
More images from the Balenciaga campaign which is really on fire. I find it interesting though. Something about it feels very modern.
Another favorite, Jil Sander. Kasia Struss and Miranda Kerr by Willy Vanderperre. As always with Jil Sander, minimalistic, magical and beautiful.
Another one by beautiful Céline.
There is also some sad news in the fashion world. Marc Jacobs recently broke up with his boyfriend Lorenzo Martone. He is not commenting on it. However, the world of Marc Jacobs is just growing. On his show date (Sept. 15) he will be opening up his talked about bookstore, Bookmarc. Like this is not enough. Marc is also, on the same date, launching his e-commerce site for US customers. The site will also have different items than can be found on other retailers that sell Jacobs’s wares online. Congratulations Marc!
Sofia Coppola is directing for Dior again. Coppola was snapped just short of a week ago filming a Dior advertisement in Paris; she reportedly worked with Natalie Portman, who signed to be the face of Parfums Christian Dior last month, and her cousin Robert Schwartzman (brother to Jason Schwartzman) in the Parc Monceau last Monday and Tuesday.
There also plenty of other rumors in the fashion world right now and I can not wait to see how this will turn out. The rumors are saying that three unnamed designer are shifting houses. Stefano Pilati is leaving Yves Saint Laurent for Armani, and Armani himself is retaring. Who will then take over at YSL? Well, the rumor is saying that no other than Hedi Slimane is. Interesting.
This is so exciting, I almost can not wait. I love ballet and I love Rodarte. Sisters Laura and Kate Mulleavy designed 40 costumes for the film Black Swan by Darren Aronofsky (which will open the Venice Film Festival on Sept. 1 ). The thriller is starring Natalie Portman as a ballerina. Beautiful.
Art news. The wonderfull Whitney museum has plans for a new loction, the meatpacking district. The building, set to be completed in 2015 and will probably be extraordinary.

I’m finally ready to spill: the goodie bag, my personal purchase victories, and of course the celeb sightings!
Favorite thing in the goodie bag: Essie “Body Language” nail polish.
This fabulously light and warm grey is perfect for summer to fall (and I’m sure I’ll be wearing it with my winter whites as well!). Right now the color enhances my tan and I have a feeling it will transition perfectly as I get paler in the fall and winter. Essie polishes are amazing, they cover beautifully, last a long time, and come in a bazillion colors. I’m putting Body Language on as I write this!
Fab Purchase: Block leather oxfords in gunmetal blue and cream. These shoes are ridiculously comfortable, cute, lightweight, and were about 25% of the retail price at Super Saturday -who doesn’t love a great sale?
(yes, my room is quite messy as i just got home from the Hamptons)
As for celebs, they were certainly out, to name a few, Michelle Trachtenberg, Kim Kardashian, and Star Jones were present sporting big smiles and, I can only imagine, a great deal of generosity for this wonderful cause. I have some personal photos I snapped and will put those up tomorrow -for now I must run. It’s dinnertime here in NYC and Atlantic Grill awaits!
(deliciously fresh seafood, a great sushi bar, and don’t even get me started on the dessert. I usually go for sushi or raw oysters on the half shell, the wasabi tuna, and the carmelized banana tower -yum!)
Heading out to the Hamptons this morning, NYC’s official summer residence. When I get there I will have MUCH to blog about, The Postelles, Super Saturday, plus exclusive interviews with awesome NYC / Hamptons people! For now I leave you with this cute pillow:
