Cate Blanchett for US Vogue December 2009 Cover

Aussie actress and Vogue favourite Cate Blanchett, in a gold Donna Karan resort dress, is on the December 2009 cover of American Vogue.

I don't know what it is and I'm having trouble pinpointing it now but I feel like I've seen this cover — or look/concept – somewhere before. It's sooo familiar!

Thoughts on the cover?

Anna Worshipper Part 3

There's more where these came from. I don't think the fash pack had seen anything like this before. I'm talking about Chris Crocker/Britney Spears levels here.

Anna Worshipper

There I was thinking I'm a weirdo for loving Sally Singer, Aliona Doletskaya and Carine Roitfeld. But this, this my dear readers is something else. Ladies and gentlegays, meet Kate.

Now this is what I call TRUFASHINDEDICATION.

And Emily?

That's all.

Watch The September Issue Online

For those of you unlucky ones who haven’t seen RJ Cutler’s smashing “The September Issue” documentary, boy, consider it your lucky day. Watch the full-length video below.

[Update - 11/03/2009: Due to a copyright claim by Actual Reality Pictures, producers of The September Issue, I am removing the Youku.com (where it's hosted) video player on my site. You may, instead, buy the September Issue DVD HERE.]

It’s an hour and twenty something minutes long so grab some popcorn and a drink. Or a bag of raisins and some mineral water.

As always, I have one thing to say. You’re welcome.

Grace Coddington Part Deux

Here’s another tidbit from The September Issue.

I’m telling you — Grace Coddington is the STAR! The bit before this clip where she explained why she’s still working with Vogue after all these years almost made me cry. If you haven’t seen it yet, run, don’t walk, run, to the nearest movie theater where it’s showing.

You’re welcome.

Here at the cinema about to watch the September Issue with John, Ashley and Jesse.

Anna Wintour Quotes + Free Ring Tones

Anna Wintour, who we all love very much, needs no introduction so let's cut to the chase.

I made these ring tones for my new baby which I'll blog about soon. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. All you need to do is download the audio files to your computer and transfer them to your phone. I cannot guarantee whether they'd work on your mobile or not (and quite frankly, I don't care so please don't ask me any tech support-related questions because I do not have the time) but lemme tell you they perfectly work on my phone.

• [here] Fashion Makes People Nervous
• [here] Glutton for Punishment
• [here] Fur
• [here] Glamorous Girlfriend
• [here] Needy Bitch
• [here] People
• [here] Sunglasses
• [here] Bonus! Andre Leon Talley – Famine of Beauty
• [here] BONUS! (as requested by idris) BRYANBOY on LITTLE BRITISH HOUSES

Say the magic words: you're welcome.

PS. If you want to share these lovely ring tones to your own minions, please link to this page instead of linking to the files directly in your site. I'm paying for bandwidth charges not you.

Again, you're welcome. Enjoy! :)
