Lagerfeld Confidential, UK Vogue, and more

Maud and I are going to see Lagerfeld Confidential at the MIFF on Thursday! I cant even begin to tell you how exciting this is for us. Karl is my all time favourite designer and Most Stylish Man. I hope the movie is good. I cant see any reason why it wouldnt be. Is anyone else going?

Today for lunch I bought UK Vogue to read during my break..... there has been some debate lately about Vogues vs. Other Countries Vogues, specifically US vs French, and I've found it REALLY interesting to read what people think of the different versions. Personally I wish so badly I could read French, and then my bible would officially be French Vogue. I recently bought a subscription to US Vogue due to my increasing anger at Australian Vogue. If any of you out there read both Aust and US Vogues you may have noticed that Aust Vogue is basically a replica of US Vogue from 2 or 3 months earlier. Same articles, same fashion spreads, with no mention of where they originally appeared. And, in case you are interested, a US subscription costs only $80 AUSTRALIAN, which is basically the same as an Aussie Vogue subscription- for the same content, when it is current. Not two months later.

UK Vogue is interesting. I read a comment from someone who complained that it was full of society wives and social pictures, which is true, there are too many social pics of boring parties. Other than that and the fact that its a few months old when we get it and the beauty pages are full of things we cant get here, its an ok read. Perhaps not as fashion-y as US Vogue, but I still enjoy it occasionally.

Any comments? What do you think of Australian Vogue? Useless, or am I too harsh?

Now. Check this:

Is or is not Katie Holmes waaaaayyyyy out of her depth here? I realise Jada Pinkett-Smith and Posh are not exactly known for their impeccable taste at all times, but in this picture they are setting the dress code- and Katie is NOT conforming, and its not in a good way. What was she thinking? The dress is NOT flattering and she looks kinda like the awkwardly growth-spurted tallest teenage girl at the family Christmas party- except with Louboutin shoes. She really needs a necklace. Or to have her dress taken in a bit. And purple shoes with red dress? I just hate the whole look. Grow down, Katie! You are too young to look this way. Especially when you have the misfortune to be standing next to Posh, who has the incredibly buffed body 9and outfit) of a 20-something year old.

I love Posh Spice. And now that you all know my secret shame I am free to go forth and gush about her. I know she seems like a bimbo, with no taste, and no brains, but I think most of the time she looks good. I love her hair. I dont love her cleavage but I give her snaps for it- she has had three kids, after all. And I think I am justified in saying that Jada knows she looks like she is copying Posh, and Will is blissfully ignorant of the fact he looks like he is copying David. I love it. pic is from gofugyourself.com
