The Big Moon
Perhaps you heard some of the commotion about this past Saturday's full moon being the biggest one in 18 years or some variation there-of. Turns out that because the moon's orbit isn't perfectly circular, it occasionally gets closer to Earth, and that's what happened during this full moon. So it appeared to be about 14% larger in the sky, which is really not enough of a difference to tell with the naked eye. But it was nice and bright, and it gave me an excuse to go out and shoot some pictures. I wish I had remembered earlier in the day, I would have tried to get a nice cityscape or something with the moon in it. I spotted it rising over the middle of the road I was driving down, and it was quite the impressive site, but there wasn't enough time to whip the camera out and shoot it. This shot was from about 20 minutes later as it finally rose over the other condo buildings in my complex. Everywhere I looked, people were outside looking at the giant moon. But I was the only one with a long lens trained on it. :)
Happy Anniversary To Me
Today marks the sixth anniversary of my blog. Since this day back in 2005, I've been bringing you all sorts of stuff from old records to photos of neat things and places to more Christmas music than you can shake a stick at. I don't think a sixth anniversary is all that auspicious, so I'm not going to write up some big huge retrospective or make a series of lists commemorating my 10 favorite posts or ten favorite pictures or any such nonsense. Just a quick note to pat myself on the back, and to say thank you to all of you for visiting. Here's to six more years!

New York Fashion Week AW 2011...Hyoni
Korean model Hyoni Kang after DKNY. Her panda sweater makes me happy. As does her bright blue beanie!
p.s. My thoughts and prayers are very much with the people of Japan right now.
New York Fashion Week AW 2011....Leomie
Not brave enough to wear citrus brights this season? Wear them on your feet instead like model Leomie Anderson! Leomie's agency is Premier in London and I just read on their blog that Leomie is featured in a shoot in the new Vogue Italia! Yay!
Summer Citrus and Flowers....On Eva, Alexa and Giovanna
Eva (in Paris) this season, Alexa at Louis Vuitton (last season), and Giovanna in Milan (last season). My fav is Eva's citrus print Stella McCartney skirt- it makes me happy :)

Paris Fashion Week AW 2011...Anouck
Anouck Lepere after Sonia Rykiel. Love that Maison Michel hat (thank you Peony! I was laying in bed the other night trying to recall the brand and texted Peony to find out. Lame but true!). Love the campaign for Spring/Summer shot by Karl Lagerfeld (although I think they have Leigh Lezark and Elena Perminova switched around the wrong way! See, it isn't only me who gets names wrong ;)
If I could shoot almost everything in the magic hour before sunset, I would :) (above)
p.s. Yes, I am slightly obsessed with hats at the moment as you can tell by today's posts!
New York Fashion Week AW 2011....Jazzy
British model (she is signed with Storm models) Jazzy de Lisser. Jazzy also has a charity, Liver Good Life, which provides support to people living with Hepatitis C and other liver diseases (Jazzy was born with it).
Paris Fashion Week AW 2011...After Jean-Charles de Castelbajac
Love those 70's jeans with the blazer and heels.

New York and Paris Fashion Week AW 2011...Tamu
Y'all know Tamu: she has the beautiful, beautiful blog All The Pretty Birds, amazing personal style and most importantly, she is a truly wonderful person. All those photos you see of Tamu smiling and laughing? That really is Tamu (well, of course it's her but you know what I mean....that is just her personality). And I am so lucky that I get to call her my friend :)So I am so tremendously excited that Tamu has been named the Director of the soon-to-be launched Grazia.IT! (This is BIG, really BIG!) I will let you know once it launches, but in the meantime you can check out Tamu's diary (all in black and white- gorgeous) here.
I LOVED Tamu's neon yellow Miu Miu dress (and her Miu Miu shoes) after Louis Vuitton.....and I wasn't the only one who adored it: numerous editors were oohing and ahhhing over it as well! Note the tiny lime green belt circling Tamu's (tiny) waist- so sweet. I think Tamu also shows how to wear this season's neon brights (ie tone down everything with camel) without looking OTT.
Neon, Neon, Neon yellow! With Camel
