//321/ A poor lonesome cowboy, a long way from home.
//Follow this link for a song to set the mood.
//Here I am, a poor lonesome cowboy in Death Valley, Eastern California. But even a poor lonesome cowboy needs some furry friends and these grey critters (Sky and Diego) sure kept me company in this forsaken place. (Sooo, I have decided to revive The Peroxide Blonde and will (try to) keep a style diary. I hope you enjoy it!)

//305/ Lifestyle: Cruising in Cape Town
Muizenberg & Kalkbay, Cape Town
//Skating has grown enormously in the past few years in Cape Town, as much amongst girls as guys. Apart from the girls that prefer cruising and sliding, there are also a handful that into bombing.
//Here I am with some friends on a small skate from Muizenberg to Kalk Bay (followed by a lovely swim).

//298/ Life: Birthday Highlights
1. Nike sneakers from Cyle
2. Fringe jacket from myself
3. Vogue from dad
4. All Stars from dad
//Here are some of my faves from my Birthday. I am super lucky to have both a dad and a boyfriend with impeccable taste. The fringe jacket is real suede and extremely fantastic. I bought it quite spontaneously in a semi-drunken state and it was totally out of my budget but I have no regrets whatsoever.

//297/Photography: Cape Town in the morning sun
Cape Town City Bowl
//Today was my birthday. To be honest, it wasn't the best. But I learnt two valuable things. Firstly, I have the raddest boyfriend who did his best to make my day nice and got me the most amazing sneakers. I know you never read my blog Cyle but I love you more than anyone in the world and the sneakers were my favourite present :)
And secondly that family may not be as important as it is made out to be.
//This is a photo I took from Lion's Head on a beautiful morning hike.

//294/ Photography: Sea Point
//A pretty magical photo I took of Sea Point from Bantry Bay while I was staying there. But as magical as Bantry Bay can be, staying in the deep south of Cape Town will always be the best. Happy Saturday!

//286/ Streetstyle 044
//The real beauty of these two photographs was lost in the black and white: this girl has fiery red hair which made her look super fierce in a really cool way. Her hair kind of belied her personality...she was in fact really soft-spoken, super shy and somewhat perplexed as to why I would want to photograph her.
//I would love to know if she is really swedish or if Swedish is just a trendy nationality to be at the moment...

//278/ Photography // Shipwreck
//I don't like to post personal photographs but I really like this one (of my boyfriend). I love the lack of depth which was caused by my using a spool of film twice accidentally, and even the mistake on the side (the white line) is nice.

//243/ Photography: Tacheles Berlin
Kunsthaus Tacheles, Oranienburger Straße, Berlin-Mitte
//These are from inside the art house Tacheles in Berlin, I find them particularly moving. At one point there was talk of tearing the legendary building down, but I think fortunately they have come to their senses and let this home to many artists and popular tourist attraction stand (??)

//235/ Karlie for Hedi Slimane
Issue: December 2011
Photography: Hedi Slimane
Model: Karlie Kloss
//This is the result of a private session with Karlie Kloss and Hedi Slimane. I love the sensuality in Hedi Slimane´s photography...these photographs especially are loaded with intensity. I think it also has to do with Karlie´s complete control over her body, beautiful!
//On another note, these photographs highlight the flimsy, delicate allure of chiffon: pretty and light-perfect for summer.

//233/ Berlin: Alex
Kreuzberg, Berlin
//This is my gorgeous Alex on my roof in Berlin, how beautiful? I love her all-black, cat-woman-like attire.

//230/ Berlin: Colourful Memory
Oderberger Straße, Berlin
//To me the appearance of a place is more important than what it has to offer (no worries, I don´t apply the same criterium to people (!)...). The memory of this lunch is etched into my brain because of the beautiful bright colours that worked so well together...the food was less than memorable but that was kind of secondary to me. It may seem bizarre but it must derive from an desire to move in and see only spaces and things that are aesthetically pleasing...and places to take in food are no exception!

//226/ Streetstyle 032
Arts Building, University of Cape Town, Cape Town
//Somehow anything with an American, or even better British, flag on it is instantaneously cool. They´ve become popular to the point where the are almost...almost...corny, but I love them still. And a man in a hat always catches my attention, it just speaks of a certain level of intellect, don´t you agree? ;)

//220/ Pirelli 2012
Pirelli Calendar 2012
Photographer: Mario Sorrenti
Models: Edita Vilkevicute, Isabeli Fontana, Joan Smalls (x2), Saskia De Brauw (x2), Natasha Poly (x2)
//It´s that time of the year again: the best of the models get together to be photographed by a top photographer to create the Pirelli Calender. Here is an outtake of the 2012 calendar, shot in Corsica....magical!
//On another note, I cannot wait for the day that Hedi Slimane shoots this.

//217/ Photography: Local Beach
Muizenberg Beach, Cape Town
//Some photos I took at my local beach in the icy fresh period after winter. In the second image is my darling friend Brittany, who is going to New York soon. Hmph, envious. ;)
