Keira Knightley in Kenya

I fell in love with this photo spread starring Keira Knightley and shot in Kenya for Vogue by Arthur Elgot in 2007.  I came across some old photos on my computer and thought I would share them with you.  You've probably already seen them before, but it doesn't hurt to peruse them again.  Enjoy.




Poor Guy - the guy in the photo is their actual guide and they really did get stuck.  When he got out to push, Arthur Elgot decided to take advantage of this and get the shot.

My favourite shot - who can resist this little guy.


Thanks for the trip.

Coco Chanel's Paris Apartment

Coco Chanel's apartment in Paris at 31 Rue Cambon has been left as a sort of museum piece to her.  It's amazing the beautiful things she collected in her life time.  It's well maintained and curated, overall the image is stunning and that is how she lived.  Quite the life.

A close up of the famous intertwined C's and number 5's chandelier in her living room.
Chanel really had a thing for coromandel screens but I would too if I could afford the quality of these screens.

The apartment is frequently used for photoshoots and commercials.  Here are a couple of my favourites

This little bird cage sits in her apartment.  It's been featured in a number of ways.


It was the inspiration for the Coco advert featuring Vanessa Paradis as the caged bird.

Whole Living Challenge - Day 16

Sleep...
This is something I can really get into.  I’m tired all the time so this gives me the excuse I need to shutdown early, and take midday naps on weekends without guilt.  I’m ready to really begin.
Saying this every night before I go to bed might inspire me more to get out of bed in the morning.

Tomorrow’s the first day of the rest of your life!
