I am in LOVE with Terry Richardson

So a lot of people know of my Terry love.

He is by no means my only favourite photographer. I have a few, the other obvious choices that spring to mind are Corrine Day whose atmospheric angsty work adorned my 'inspiration wall' as a teenager & beyond, when I worked with her it was a truly pivotal time in my life.  For me heroine chic probably in part due to my age & the rest totally due to Corrine will always be THE look.  And Rankin too he is just so bold so clean & crisp, so detailed & so 'good' . . . when FSAugusta were asked to donate jewellery to Oxglam for him earlier in the year, I have to say I was bloody thrilled I have a huge admiration for him and his work, I think the word is just 'striking' if that makes any sense or that is probably playing it down somewhat.

But Terry . . . perhaps its his accessibility through social media that turm me on to him so much, the access to new daily pics via his tumbler is something that I love & need to check on more than a daily basis, we are so easily transported in to Terry World & I am so glad that we are because for me that's all part of the magic because Terry World is filed with beautiful people & beautiful places in the dirtiest kind of way & this is all part of his appeal.  If you have previously been following FSAugusta on Facebook then you know that I often put up pics of my fav Terry pics & that is going to happen here too . . . but before I do that I thought maybe you would appreciate a brief explanation as to why I am in love with Terry Richardson & now you have it.

I won't write any more about my dearest Terry just yet as I am pretty sure you will have to read more again soon!

Bellow are my favs from this weeks uploads.

NYC is making me FAT . . .

My LOVE for cupcakes, well more specifically icing really (I sometimes eat icing from the tubes, I LOVE icing!)grew immensely in the summer when I came to NYC with my frequent partner in crime Vanessa who introduced me to the wonders of Magnolia Bakery .  I had indeed heard of them but never had I actually tasted the juicy goodness for my self and I had been missing out big time.  I am quite a traditionalist with my cupcakes and my FAV (to date) is the wholesome magic that is the vanilla cupcake with the best f**king vanilla icing I have ever tasted! Icing tubes and all other brand of cupcakes have been ruined for me now, there is no point in eating them!! But now I am back in NYC for a while me and my Magnolia loving are at one!! So it's official this city is going to make me fat as I know this will not be the only time you are forced to read about my icing LOVE!!

COBALT BLUE I THINK I LOVE YOU . . .

I have become really obsessed with cobalt blue recently - after purchasing a pair of jeans in the aforementioned colour way now I want more, so when I saw these handbags on Selfridges Facebook page this morn I felt the need to bring them to your attention & then to rush towards Selfridges . . . 

I really want one of the clutches!!! Surprisingly maybe the simple Givenchy rather than the Maison Do posh studded which I would normally gravitate too . . .

That said who am I kidding anything in cobalt blue will do!!

Maison du Posh Knuckle Duster Clutch

Givenchy Antigona Medium Tote

Givenchy Antigona Clutch


 Which one would you go for & cobalt blue for you? Yay or nay?!
