Irina Lazareanu

Irina s-a nascut in Romania in 1982, dar a crescut in Canada si Anglia. Devenita model de succes a lucrat pentru designeri importanti: Karl Lagerfeld, Balenciaga, Chanel, Versace, Lanvin, Alexander McQueen si din martie anul acesta a devenit imaginea colectiei create de buna ei prietena Kate Moss pentru Topshop.
Emanuelle Alt de la revista Vogue, Franta, spune despre ea ca nici macar pe podium nu poate fi transformata, avand un look si un stil unic.
Stilul Irinei este inspirat din Londra anilor '60, '70 si este un mix de masculin, vintage si rock'n'roll. Este muza pentru Karl Lagerfeld si Nicolas Ghesquiere.
Irina l-a ajutat pe Pete Doherty de la Babyshambles sa scrie "La Belle et la Bete" si a inregistrat un duet cu Sean Lennon, care nu a fost insa lansat. Sustine ca muzica ei este necomerciala si este influentata de Joan Baez, Neil Young sau Bob Dylan.

Christmas lights

While some people I could mention are swanning about in Paris, I am left here in Manchester thinking about what on earth to get people for Christmas. Thanks to Gala Darling I have some idea. Japanese Watches of course! I absolutely love these, even if I can't quite work out how to tell the time on most of them. Ah well, hopefully people will be distracted by the pretty lights...

Good evening Miss EJ, I have arisen from my catch up sleep session but have lost my Sunday! I will try and post later on tonight however because I have much to say and to show...I did enjoy perusing the site on Friday morning whilst all of my work colleagues were eating bacon sarnies my hunger was satisfied by LEDs! Who needs a watch to tell the time these days anyway, I just check my phone or ipod for that, so I am all for watches that have the primary use of looking cool.
