Miss Piggy in Vogue ...




I had the biggest smile on my face when this month, I came across Miss Piggy in the pages of Vogue. A new Muppet's movie is set for release in February 2012, in which Miss Piggy plays a french Vogue editor, bringing curves to the centre of the fashion industry. I'm so, so excited to see this movie. I think it's going to be the film highlight of the year !!!

Abit more Gemma, by Abilouise loves ....



I drew this from a photo taken by Patrick Demarchelier, it was in an old vogue, can't remember which issue but this is one of my favourite photo shoots ever. I loved all the different textures in the clothes, all the bight colours and the mixture of eastern dress and contemporary style.

I must go down to the sea again,
to the lonely sea and the sky;
I left my shoes and socks there-
I wonder if they're dry ?

Spice Market ...




The smell as you walked into the shop was overwhelming, a mixture of strong spice fragrances. The colours were beautiful. My mum ended up going a bit crazy treating herself to tons of different spices for cooking. Lemon Salt, Meat spices, Chili powder and Sweet Paprika.
