Somewhere, Over the Rainbow

It all began with the rainbow I saw on flickr ages ago. It made me smile. A lot. 


Then this season Charlotte Free had me lusting after the bottle of dye at Topshop Unique & Marchesa. She's got that Abbey Lee Kershaw mixed with Lara Stone thing going on.


 Not helped by Thakoon's SS 2012 delicious-looking manes. 


Alana Zimmer & Anais Mali - Thakoon SS2012

Some gals really can pull it off, think Natalie Portman in Closer and Scarlett Johansson in Lost in Translation. If at all, I think I'll dip my toe in and have the various shades of pinks highlights I sported a decade ago at university. I do love the full-on look, though.

Marni ❤ Hennes

I genuinely don't know how to contain myself. The utterly wonderful Consuelo Castiglioni of Marni is designing a collection for H&M that is launching... 8th March next year! Please, please, please may some of these heavenly pieces be remembered?? 


 Liudmilla Bakhmat & Jacquetta Wheeler - Spring Summer 2002


Candela & Eugenia Volodina - Spring Summer 2003


Elise Crombez & Gemma Ward - Spring Summer 2005



Something to dream of to get me through the long and cold winter nights. 
Bring on 8th March!


Not forgetting their underwear (www.net-a-porter.com). Also in yellow - too perfect. 


I can't help it - it's so beautiful!

I found this beauty on AnOther's Lovers. It is a Urania Ripheus, aka the Sunset Moth. Very apt for my previous Seenigama Sunset post. 


The Urania Ripheus - Sunset Moth

There is something that facinates me about moths, even more so than butterflies. Their wings are like the thinest of paper and I love their understated delicacy. I'm off to get my colouring pencils out.

My ten year old Godson just showed me this clip. Incredible. And what a wonderful title.

Thank you awesome Wilf.
