Film: The Bling Ring - Sofia Coppola

Imagine you can go 'shopping' in the closet of rich and famous fashionista…  that's what all grown up Emma Watson does in an upcoming Sofia Coppola film.



While I was far from fan of Coppola's last picture 'somewhere', I'm more than curious to see her latest 'The Bling Ring'.  It's a true life story telling the tale of some Hollywood Hill burglaries by a bunch of L.A. teens who stole from stars like Paris Hilton, Orlando Bloom, … back in 2009.

The Bling Ring goes in premiere in Belgium on Wednesday June 5th.

Fashion vs. StreetStyle

New York, London, Paris, …   one by one fashionable cities with great fashion shows!  But there is also 'the circus outside the show': the street style photographers.

The romance between photographers and fashion on the streets is a tool for magazine editors and designers, an expression for the photographer himself and the model but a frustration for many fashion editors. 

Garage magazine captured all the fuss in a short documentary about the circus!

I have to admit, I love street style blogs! There is something about those causual and every day shots in a steet-settings.  My roommate pointed out this charming blog 'What Ali wore'.

Photographer Zoe Spawton works in a cafe in Berlin and every morning at 9:05, Ali, this elderly Turkish man walks by, dressed very stylish.  After days, weeks of greetings and smilings Zoe started to take pictures of Ali.  A new street style star is born: What Ali Wore
