Something about that Girl

8 1/2 Scenes with Sienna Miller
"
"SCENE 2
At the Hotel d'Inghilterra, just off the Via Condotti—Rome's Rodeo Drive, albeit with the Spanish Steps thrown in—I knock on Sienna Miller's door. She has occupied her modest suite for all of ten minutes, and already it looks like the bedroom of a teenage club chick who can't pick an ensemble for Saturday night. Her suitcase has apparently erupted. Streaming from it, or thrown out of it, are nude patent Burberry ankle boots; Chanel silver python flats; an ostrich boot from Louis Vuitton ("That's the perfect boot; sorry to sound so fashiony"); snakeskin platforms from Terry de Havilland; a 1920s vest worn by Vietnamese soldiers; a blue sequined V-back sweatshirt from Peter Jensen ("I quite love sequins; I think it's the drag queen in me"); an Ossie Clark dress covered in pansies ("a proper hippie dress"); a 1989 STEEL WHEELS Rolling Stones T-shirt pilfered from ex-boyfriend model/rocker Jamie Burke; gray linen overalls from Isabel Marant; a black beaded halter top ("a slutty kind of thing"); a 1920s wedding dress with an arm coming off; Vivienne Westwood vintage tops for Wolford; a Lurex granny-square vest by Wayne Rogers for Granny Takes a Knit; JET track pants; an "oversize doll dress" by an English line, PPQ; black sports shorts with a red heart on them (A. Olivieri from Euphoria, London); an orange alligator clutch from Bridget Romanek. "There's nothing that goes with anything else," Miller remarks."

Not just pink

"Broadening Makeup’s Spectrum"
"NOT every woman has the confidence to paint her lips a metallic cornflower blue, even if Doo.Ri’s models walked the runway with Everest-cold pouts during the last New York Fashion Week. But some of the unusual colors that professional makeup artists routinely use to create an unforgettable eye or lip don’t have women running scared anymore.
We are seeing a lot of experimental techniques and colors going on in fashion for sure,” said Gordon Espinet, the vice president of makeup artistry for M.A.C. Cosmetics. “Everybody is sick of the idea of being safe all the time, and being predictable. In the real world, it’s happening as well. A lot of women are taking chances.”"
