I was sent a beautiful postcard by one of my girlfriends who is being a gypsy at the moment, traveling around on her own, meeting amazing landscapes and people... and postcards. She sent me a postcard for my birthday which she later told me was picked up from a cafe while she was in Denmark. The painting on the cover was very beautiful, and it wasn't until this morning that I found out who the artist was... Mia Overgaard.

On Monday, while fashion journalists, buyers and glossy magazine editors are focused on getting to the next Paris fashion show on time, a style revolution will be under way on the Internet, an event that could change the way all of those front-row names do business in the future.

It seems now that the worlds of street photography and fashion photography are starting to blur the lines even more. Just taking straight up and down shots is not enough for our standards anymore, we need attention to detail and colour consideration all encompassing that 'coincidental-shot' feeling that we get from the street. We still love fashion editorials, but it seems lately the ones that get us are the ones that have the un-forced feeling mixed with high fashion details.

Bills suck. But you just gotta pay em! I sort my bills out by working for New Zealand's top fashion designer, Kate Sylvester. I work at the flagship store in High St, Auckland. Everyday I get to wear and sell her beautiful collections. Our summer season has just been viewed by an awaited audience today at Australia's Fashion Week 2008/09. Unfortunatly, here in New Zealand, we are just about to jump in the puddle of winter so these cute lil pieces wont be touching my sweet lil limbs anytime soon...oh! but when they do! mmmmmm.....x

While I was searching for an inspiration for a name for anyonegirl.com, I came across a book in our office that I hadn't seen for some time!

Smile i-D, edited by Terry Jones, is a Taschen print which looks back at the best 20 years of i-D's history as a magazine.
