I know, i know, i've been bad on this whole posting every three days thing. Im sorry, i will try to keep up from now on.

The subject of this post comes from my trips to facehunter. Usually, this street-style sanctuary gives me inspiration and style ideas. But alas, today was diffrent.

Upon log on, i found LEGGINGS. Leggings are simply the worst fashion statment in the world. [Besides Crocs and Uggs]. So i've decided. Now is the time to stand. All for the ban of leggings say i?

CASE STUDIES:

If only these girls weren't so chic... Molly xo.

What does a recently broken computer + 6 essays to re-type equal? Very, very tired fingers. So im afraid dear bloggers that this is a quick one. More of a you-answer-me than a-me-talking-to-you post. For todays post, im thinking back to the post about Miss Amy Winehouse i did a month back,as she became the muse for Karl Lagerfeld @ Chanel. Since then, i have been thinking more into the who-is-who of celeb/stylist muses, and have compiled the finest.

DUFFY FOR DOLCE & GABBANA

Everyone knows Duffy is an amazing singer, but what you may not know is that she has also has amazing style, and is the new muse of D&G. Apparently she wowed the fashion gods at a concert and has been asked to take over the role from Madonna *scoff scoff*

KATIE SHILLINGFORD FOR GARETH PUGH If you had never heard of her before, dont worry, i hadn't either. Turns out she's the ex-editor of Dazed And Confused, and also stylist to Gareth Pugh's catwalks. He's worked with her for four years and 'couldn't think of anyone else but Katie' to be his muse. All i know is that she had one hell of a haircut, and that there isn't many pictures of her on the internet.

AGYNESS DEYN FOR HOUSE OF HOLLAND

Best friends for a few years, the style duo even live together, and along with her quirky style, its no suprise she makes the 'perfect muse' for house of holland.

so, who would be your muse?

have a good evening everyone,

Molly xo.

Agh. The shop that were 'fixing' my camera have declared that it cannot be fixed. So now i have the task of saving for a new one. So hopefully i will have a camera soon.

But from one person-behind-the-camera to another, i present you my second fashion mini-biography on the topic of: legendary photograper Patrick Demarchelier.

Info bit:

The french photographer was born in 1994 and since then has become a major name in the photography industry. He has shot dozens of editorials for American, British and Paris Vogue. He has also shot covers for Rolling Stone, Glamour, and Elle. Also, he has shot campaigns for Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein. He was also mentioned in Devil Wears Prada [hence the title...].

Recently, he shot 'the sheltering sky' for British Vogue with model Jessica Stam, showcasing this seasons prettiest fashions.

Im sorry this is a bit hurried, but i have the dreaded return to school tomorrow, so i'm very busy [but i hope these gorgeous pictures make up for it!] Thankyou all for your lovely comments, and i'll reply as soon as i can!

Have a nice day everyone,

Molly xo.

Mum: 'you'll never guess who just walked into Reiss [clothes store, Cambridge]. AMY WINEHOUSE!'

Im not much of a celebrity fan. I suppose its because I've never come into contact with many before. But when i walked into Reiss to see a petite beehive clad Amy Winehouse, i'll admit i was thrilled. She was wearing a tight pair of skinny jeans and high top trainers and was accompanied by a bodyguard. This was before her whole drug-use trauma, and seemed perfectly happy browsing the rails.

Peronally, i've never really liked her style that much. Her baggy jeans, trainers and tattoos are all a bit manly for my liking. I'll admit she does have talent and i am very pleased she is back from rehab and is on the mend. But really, shes not my cup of tea style-wise.

However, she has been influenced and been linked to the fashion world very strongly this season. She is known as Karl LAgerfeld's muse and inspired many catwalk beauty looks with her winged eyes and bouffant hair. She performed at Fendi's store opening and at many of the major music events.

And when Paris Vogue did a fashion spread inspired by her in the Febuary issue, i'm going to have to bite the bullet and admit that i loved it. The model [Isabelli Fontana] captured Amy's often bizzare behaviour well, and the shoot really reflects her personality and dress sense.

Yes, it's only been a day since i last posted, but when i've got the blogging spirit, i kind of have to post. So, here i am again with what i hope is going to be an interesting post. :)

I've always been fascinated by Anna Piaggi ever since reading about her in my personal fashion bible 'The Cheap Date's Guide to Style'. And when i saw this picture on the Satorialist I felt the need to find out more. So here it is, the first ever Fashion Biography to ever grace the posts of Fashionyou.

Anna Piaggi is an international writer and stylist, and her articles have been shown on the pages of Italian Vogue in which she has been the creative consultant since 1988, and Vanity Fair. However, she is more often recognised for her eccentric taste in stile and always unique hair and makeup. According to the V&A she has an amazing 2865 dresses. She has been associated with Manalo Blahnik, Karl Lagerfeld and Stephen Jones.

And here are a few questions asked to her by The Telegraph in 2006:

Who are your favourite designers of the moment? I like Dolce & Gabbana and Rifat Ozbek. Also John Galliano, because he's a designer whose clothes create their own mood. I've recently rediscovered Chanel, who I used to wear years ago. I particularly like the collections they make for Japan, full of such stunning patterns and colours. I've also rediscovered Missoni, the clothes are made with such craft. And I like the modernism and discipline of Prada.

What have been your biggest fashion indulgences? Hats (by either Philip Treacy or Stephen Jones), gloves (from Missoni Men, with cutout fingers - I wear them while I'm working and with matching nail varnish) and walking canes (from Madeleine Gély, 218 blvd St Germain, Paris).
