Nicki + Ricky + David x M.A.C
What do you think of when you think of M.A.C Viva Glam? I usually think of Nicki Minaj, on a bike and Ricky Martin holding a large lipstick. What? You Don’t?! How odd..
Well, Nicki Minaj and Ricky Martin have just been announced as the new faces of M.A.C Cosmetics’ Viva Glam campaign. The 2012 campaign is a collage by David LaChapelle with tones of bright colours. 100 percent of the proceeds of Viva Glam sales go to the M.A.C Aids Fund and it hits M.A.C. counters February 2012.
Sample This
This weekend was the first Sampled sale that took place on Saturday and Sunday. I was down to paint some nails and check out all the cute hip – hop boys that were there to pick up a bargain (or 10). Damn was it a fun weekend, amazing tunes, incredible brands at a fraction of the price and I got to paint some gorgeous girls’ nails. As I was busy, I didn’t manage to take photos, so I stole a load from the AnyForty & Sampled blogs (sorry guys!). Peep the Sampled website and start getting excited about the next one, and check out some of the nails I did here.
Pierre et Gilles.
I fricking LOVE Pierre et Gille. I hadn’t thought about them for a while but stumbled across a brochure from an exhibit they held in GOMA a (cough) little while ago (years!). They have worked with pretty much everyone, Warhol, Iggy Pop, Kylie (my favourite woman), Madonna (my second favourite), Grace Jones, Marc Almond – the list goes on. Their highly stylised and kitsch sensibility can only make you smile, even when the subject matter is often quite dark. If you want some glitter and gaudiness in your life have a look.
Hopeless Lingerie

Combining vintage aesthetics with modern comfort and convenience, Hopeless create pieces that aim to make women feel sexy and beautiful.

The Big Book of Pussy
There has been the Big Book of Butts, the Big Book of Boobs and the Big Book of Penises. So, it was enevitable that Taschen would release the Big Book of Pussy. I love the description for it on Taschen’s website:

Cheating Type
Often, when someone cheats on you, you can picture the two of them at it. All the kissing, licking, positions and shit they did. Well Luke Lucas (great name right?!) has visualised cheating in a whole new way. He has created one of the most disturbing, yet funny typefaces I’ve seen in a while. Check out the “excuses” he’s used to show the typeface, then have a look at the close ups. Knida weird… But I like it…
Have a look at his other typefaces and work on his website.
A Dyslexic Girl’s Guide to Books: Tart Cards
Hello. My name is Hells and I’m dyslexic…
but damn do I love a good book!
In my last year at art school I began making my own Tart Cards. For anyone who doesn’t know what a Tart Card is, it’s a small, post-card-sized piece of paper that prostitutes put in telephone boxes to advertise their services. Before you go there, no I was not making tart cards to advertise my career change to becoming a hooker. I made cards that, instead of advertising girl’s sexual “talents” they advertised their intellect and expertise in whatever field they worked in. Peep my cards below:
The good thing about this book is it is stuffed full of images. Now, for a dyslexic, this is like giving a fat kid the golden ticket to Willy Wonka’s factory. There is nothing better for me than a book that has more pictures that words, and the words it does have are easy to follow, interesting, and informative. 
To top it all off, once you’ve learnt all about Tart Cards, and seen pretty much every card that’s ever been made, there is a handy little glossary at the back of the book that teaches you the meanings of technical terms and vernacular phrases that are commonly found on London’s tart cards.
What could be better for a dyslexic than a dictionary huh? 
Buy & enjoy here. xx
Super-Heroines Wear Nike
I get very bored of lookbooks, it’s very rare that I find a lookbook that actually inspires me and makes me want to buy the clothes. One think I never get bored of however, are comics (yes, I know I’m a geek! I own it!). So the lookbook for Nike’s Autumn 2011 collection really took my breath away. The lookbook is a collaboration between Nike and two female comic book artists; Jan Duursema & Amanda Connor entitled “Make Yourself a Superhero.” Which is meant to take the focus off of the celebrity athlete and put it on the every day woman.

Sherman advertises MAC
Cindy Sherman is known for dressing up as different characters in her photography, so It kinda makes sense that she has helped MAC make-up to with their Fall 2011 range. This collection was originally named MAC for Cindy Sherman but has been officially renamed to MAC Fall Colour.

A Dyslexic Girl’s Guide to Books: How to spot a Bastard by his Star Sign
Hello. My name is Hells and I’m dyslexic.
It took me years to learn to read (when I say years, I mean, I’m still bloody learning!), but I love books.
This can be a bit of a problem for a dyslexic, because although I want to read any book I come across, I can’t get through the first chapter without putting it down and waiting for the film version to be released. However, I really am a massive fan of books, but the only ones I do manage to finish have to be funny, particularly interesting, teach me something, get me thinking, ect.
So, I have decided to share my recomedations of books that are super friendly for anyone who doesn’t have much time, patience or brain cells for most written texts.
The first book I’ll share with you is “How to spot a Bastard by his Star Sign“ by Adele Lang & Susi Rajah. Front:
Back:
This book was sent to me by the amazing Susan, after I told her I was dumped by a Libra Bastard. Said event happened less than two weeks ago, I received the book last week, and I’ve already finished it!
Now, for someone who takes a year to read a chapter, this amazed me, a whole book in a week?! It was down to the fact that this book is the best thing I’ve read in a while. It’s funny (like really funny. Laugh-out-loud-on-the-bus-funny.), the chapters are only a few pages each, and everything these girls say is uncanny!! They hit the nail (and by nail I mean man) on the head every time!!
Read the intro to the book, and already from this you get that the girls aren’t taking themsleves (or men) to seriously:
