Badass Balmain

-

Olivier Rousteing, the Creative Director for badass brand Balmain describes the perfect Balmain Girl as a party one.  Having just announced world famous hard core party loving Rhi Rhi as their new face for the more-is-more SS14 campaign one can only congratulate Olivier on his choice.  Mixing up ladylike lace and light pink shades with chunky gold bling, this collection screams R dog.  Exploding houndstooth, power pinstripes, sumptuous folds and hedonisitc ostrich feathers, this season has pumping 80's beats all over it. It looks like the sickly sweet eighties threw up after a 21st century all nighter and it rocks.  An oversized chain edged seam, a ra-ra frill and some shimmery silver embellishments is exactly the kind of party gal look I lust over.  
Congratulations Mr.Rousteing you have just propelled yourself up the designer food chain at a rate of knots.

And as I told you before: This is our house and our house music"  Like every other nocturnal social butterfly in this city of night lights, one is constantly combing through event invitations and on the hunt for somet...

The Maldives is a must-visit destination for everyone’s 2014 travel bucket list. Just a 4 hour flight from Dubai, and you are transported from fast paced city life into a tropical island paradise of snow white sand beaches and crystal clear turquoise waters brimming with exotic fish.   Read my travel piece on this magical hideaway below.... Situated Southwest of Sri Lanka and India, over 1,000 coral islands scattered across 800km make up this island nation - of which only 200 are inhabited.   Treasured by sailors who travelled along the sea-trade routes over 2,500 years ago, the population has risen to 320,000 as a result of the influx of visiting tourists seeking to experience and observe this magical gem in the vast ocean.  Some of the islands consist merely of a reef, while others larger in size are fringed with tropical green palms and forestry which line the edges of the snowy white sand beaches .   Dis...
