Rothko at Tate Modern Londen




Untill the 1st of February you can experience magic! London Tate Modern borrows his splendid walls to Mark Rothko's giant Monochromes. To see them in real life is an honour. The concept, colors and batik-like technique influenced not only Art History but also the Who's Who in Fashion like Prada, Marni and Vera Wang. London goes crazy about the expo! Even on the cups of starbucks you can find pictures of his work. Off you go!!!
London baby...

If Madonna wears it...


Even Off Road in Malawi, The Queen of Pop keeps on trendsetting!! Madonna wears a Traditional Kikoy like she would wear some fancy Vera Wang skirt! And other than designer stuff you can adopt this style without pushing yourself in a personal wallet-crisis! Get a Kikoy or Two and wear them as a skirt over your pants, on the beach, or as a fabulous scarf!

        Eva Gozlan X-Ray:

        1. I’d love to exchange wardrobes with Lou Doillon
        2. If I was forced to put a tattoo on my “behind”, It’d be a line
        3. The perfect Holiday spot to me is Thailand
        4. When I was 18 I thought I’d become a princess
        5. I feel super sexy wearing my dress of "All Saints"
        6. Romain is the name of the guy I first fell madly in love with.
        7. The place they can lock me up in is The Delano in Miami. (note: click on the link,it's GORGEOUS!)
        8. I’d love to have dinner with Samuel Benchetrit.
        9. When I hear "Isn’t she lovely" (Stevie Wonder) I start to “shake it like a Polaroid picture”
        10. The basic must have I‘d buy a 1000 of are Pierre Hardy shoes.
        I’d wear my favourite Eva Gozlan neckless aka The Cherry accessory on it!

        Hello Pretty!

        If you're not sure Tom Sachs' "lovely" artwork will fit in your angel's bedroom, we'd go for the ones we know that do and of which we know the little ones like (tested for you!). Also some gift suggestions so they might become a Tom Sachs one day. (must admit we never heard of the guy, but if you have your "sculpture" in front of the Eiffel tower, you kindda "made it" in Artland ,I guess)

        Note: a recent study fromThe Cherry on the Cake University claims not always giving them "Big Brand, celebrity,main stream" toys & dolls is good for their personality & creativity!
