    I'm assuming Kate Moss's Vintage perfume smells like mothballs and that undefinable Goodwill smell that prevents me from spending more than a minute in any thrift store.

    Gorgeous, inspiring ad. It reminds me of pulp science fiction stories from the 40s and 50s. (Although the LV bag does look a bit out of place.)


    Also, swans are vicious buggers. One tried to take off my foot, but luckily I managed to move faster than him. I did get some great photographs of him looking graceful and serene, though.

    Having just bought 6 more vintage hats from 1910 to the 1940s in recent weeks, I confidently expect to oust Carla Bruni from her perch as best hat wearer next year. Mind you, I had to smile at the idea that someone based in Luton should be setting themselves up as the arbiter of fashion savoir.UK Jezebels of a certain age will forever remember the advert featuring a cockney girl asked by an English toff whether she had wafted in from paradise. "Nah, Luton airport!" she replies.

    I looked at those pictures of Lily Cole. Can't the girl go out of the house with a ring on any finger she likes and not get crap about how she is attention-seeking or a crap student?


    I know, I know- I'm not surprised at the Daily Mail but it seems pretty little to make it across the pond.


    Also- Oilily filed for bankruptcy. I'm so, so NOT sad. I was tired of overpriced mother/daughter patchwork velvet spats.

    "Swans, they are the meanest animals in the world, you know. I had problems with them as a child. They hate children. I was caught by one, so I know. The idea of swans is lovely, and they have a beautiful shape, but they seem more romantic than they in fact are. I don't think really they die like this. They just drop dead, hmm? But who wants to see that?"


    No comment, I just wanted to reread that. Crazy, wonderful Karl.

    @lilbobbytables: I've been tearful for the past 36 hours about the murder of George Tiller, but the mental image of Karl being 'caught' by a malevolent swan made me giggle.


    Keep on with the crazy, Karl!

    He's right, swans are right hissy sods. Look at them funny and they'll break your arm.

    @pond-side-over: When I was fifteen I went on a summer trip to the Netherlands, and there were many swans. When i came home and informed my family that swans are vicious and that they can and have broken people's arms they all mocked me mercilessly, claiming I had a paranoid fear of swans. Now they'll see. Karl knows.

    The truth is, that's the only Vuitton ad I have ever liked or bothered to give more than a passing glance. Awesomeness.
