Kate Moss on May 2011 Magazine Covers 

A well-known fashion face will appear on at least three magazine covers for the May 2011 editions. Both Vogue Japan (née Vogue Nippon) and UK Harper's Bazaar have chosen Kate Moss as their leading lady for May, but they have captured her in two completely different settings. The cover for Vogue Japan is shot by Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott. Kate wears the famous Chanel feather dress from the S/S 2011 collection, which is described as a "quivering cloud of apricot feathers" by Tim Blanks. Styled together with tight, back-combed hair and bright red lips, it makes up a strong statement cover.

UK Harper's Bazaar has opted for a softer and more gentle Kate. Two covers have been made in the honour of Alexander McQueen and the upcoming exhibition, Savage Beauty, at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. In the first cover, Kate wears a white dress from Sarah Burton's first collection for Alexander McQueen. The second shows Kate in the iconic ruffled organza dress she wore for the famous hologram video from Alexander McQueen's A/W 2006 show. Both covers are shot by Sølve Sundsbø.

Which cover is your favourite? Mine is definitely the last one.

Nicole Richie in Marchesa

In the editorial, She's In Control, in the spring/summer 2011 issue of The Block magazine, Nicole wears this gorgeous Marchesa dress from their S/S 2011 collection. The photo is shot by photographer Hugh Lippe, and styled by James Worthington DeMolet. Nicole Richie has worn Marchesa several times - the most memorable being her exquisite wedding gown in December last year. What always hits me when I see Nicole in Marchesa, is how much she resembles a fairy tale princess - she carries the dresses with such poise and elegance.

Colour Blocking: Pink and Green 

Mixing bright colours is a major trend this season. This makes me so happy as I am visioning my whole town walking around in colour blocked outfits for summer, though that is not likely to happen. I am gathering a lot of inspiration as I know that I will be wearing a lot of colour this spring and summer.

Emily, from the blog Cupcakes and Cashmere, posted photos of herself wearing this gorgeous, flirty and inspiring outfit. The hot pink skirt and the kelly green striped top work so good together. You wouldn't necessarily think of teaming these two colours together, but it's often that the unexpected works out for the best.

The French in moi!

It has been a very nice week so far, leather jacket weather! I really do love this yellow suede one I got on etsy a few months ago. I was finally able to achieve a bun on the top of my head, my locks are getting longer and longer, I love having long hair, the possibilities are endless! Stéphane took these shots of me yesterday at sunset, I love the mood it gives to my pictures. Spring has not sprung here yet but it sure is creeping in very slowly, I love it. Kind of like waiting for a gift, those precious little moments of excitement just before you open it.

Modern Warrior

In the March 2011 issue of Harper's Bazaar Korea, photographer Dancian has shot a wonderful editorial called Modern Warrior. Ruby Aldridge, styled by Mirim Lee, only wears pieces from the Spring/Summer 2011 collection by Burberry Prorsum - a collection that I am head over heels in love with. I am especially obsessed with the studded leather jacket in the first photo. It must be the queen of all leather jackets. If I owned it (I wish!), I would wear it with everything and never ever take it off. It might be a bit uncomfortable sleeping in it though...

Simplistic, Chic and Sexy

Coco Chanel once said: "Women think of all colours except the absence of colour. I have said that black has it all. White too. Their beauty is absolute. It is the perfect harmony." This is what I think of Liv Tyler's outfit - perfect harmony.

Many think that an all-black outfit is boring, but I believe that your true creative side can shine bright through such an outfit. Liv Tyler's outfit is a perfect example of this. Her cigarette pants and tuxedo jacket are so well tailored - it looks as if they have been made for exactly Liv's body. Also, I love the detailing of her top - so subtle, so chic and so sexy with the see-through back. The Louboutin heels are the icing on the cake.

Do you like simplistic outfits like this one? Or do you think it's boring?

Leigh Lezark backstage at Jeremy Scott

Yeah, I'm still posting photos from NYFW occasionally because let's face it: there were more great looks than there are days in fashion week. I am a fan of the Misshapes and Leigh Lezark's style (pictured here with Greg K) and ignore all the haters. It's not easy to sustain a career as DJs but somehow the Misshapes have not only survived but thrived. Kudos to them.
