Another stunning Drew Barrymore photoshoot

Recently I watched the September Issue and was re-inspired to source some Grace Coddington styled shoots for thisy here blob.

Here is where I posted about how ridiculously beautiful that Elle underwater shoot was, feast your eyes on this:

US Vogue April 2005

Drew makes the perfect beauty in among the roses, everything about this shoot is wonderful! The sumptuous colours, the over the top Couture gowns, the Victorian setting, just marvellous!

La Belle et la Bete

The sets are wonderful, the evocation of the old world intrigue!

Poncy art snob sentence alert!

Shoots like this is when Vogue are in top top form in my eyes, the Alice in Wonderland editorial was also styled by Grace Coddington, she really knows what to do to get that image that will stand the test of time, these are pictures painted from dreams!

Alice in Wonderland

What is it about certain books that become a giant part of the collective subconscious and influence so much beyond just the story. 

Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan being two examples. 

They have both inspired films, more books, comics, musicians, clothing, photo shoots and last minute costume party goers everywhere.

Kasia Smutniak style

Kasia Smutniak, a Polish born actress and her fantastic wardrobe.

 The dress above and in the middle below are personal favourites, long, ethereal, subdued colours, that middle Valentino gown below is made of dreams and sunshine!

I love how she's covered up and looks elegant, unlike so many tinseltown tatters today, what style!

But let's not kid ourselves, if they're not borrowed they're not paying a pretty penny for them? 

Ah too beautiful!

Also, found these on Youtube, I'm a sucker for an internet peek at an interior, even if i have to endure silly video interviews, just look at the wallpaper! That taxidermy collection is molto amazing. I love how ridiculously over the top everything is, very carefully selected!
