Last Dance for Love xx





















It's been a Donna Summer Autumn's day here at Maurie & Eve. 
"The Queen of Disco" sadly passed away on Thursday 17th May 2012 at the age of 63, after a battle with cancer.
While the world has lost a little bit of disco sparkle, we'll forever hold Donna's memory in our hearts and her iconic tunes in our party playlists. 
We hope you enjoy our little Donna Summer montage of beats and flicks.
Let's Dance for Donna tonight !

Melt In Your Mouth















If we could catch and kiss Rasmus Mogensen, we certainly would. The Paris based photographer captures sexy and sweet in this collection of mouth watering beauty photographs. 
Mogensen has shot for mega mags like German, Australian and Russian Vogue, French Elle, Australian Harper's Bazaar and Wallpaper, among others. 
We're sure you'll agree these lips look good enough to eat and the Maurie & Eve girls are certainly feeling more than inspired to rock a glossy, stained lip this weekend.

Broken Dolls

 

 

Photographer Alessio Bolzoni gives meaning, depth and an undeniably unnatural feeling to photos and the fashions they expose. Odd rythmic effects of visual element create an exquisite feeling of movement across each still. Bolzoni takes his broken dolls to the VI issue of Grey Magazine, stlying by Moreno Galata.

The Met Gala 2012













The Met Gala has become the fashion Oscars with a touch of crazy! Victoria Secret model Anja Rubik left little to the imagination in her Angelina Jolie leg topping number, while Anna Wintour was not “cold in Vogue with her skin out”, but covered in furs and sequin lobster decals. 

Which star stole the spotlight on fashions biggest night of the year?

Beautiful Disaster







Yard sales tend to bring about the best of treasures, just ask William Miller, who found an old SX-70 Polariod for $20! Instead of your typical polaroid print out, Wiliam churns out mini abstract pieces of art. The camera, as it turns out, was broken. “It sometimes spills out two pictures at a time and the film often gets stuck in the gears, exposing and mangling them in unpredictable ways,” says William. Just goes to show the surprising beauty and character that can arise from the old and broken! photos via williammillerphoto

Girl Crush: Susie Bubble

Wake up and smell the girl crush! Being in the presence of Susie's girly charm and insightful words satisfied our crush and provided great information on the evolution of the blogosphere as a whole, along with her personal venture to becoming one of the leading voices in fashion worldwide, with Style Bubble. Harpers Bazaar editor, Edwina McCann conducted a Q&A session with Susie after her presentation giving the opportunity to share more of her knowledge. Touching on branding, the difference between a journalist and blogger; where her take was objective vs. expressive - bloggers being the expressive ones who connect with their audience on a deeper, more personal level. She also pointed out a great quote from Ad week - "Blogs are not the future of magazines, but the future of Fashion Branding", where she continued to speak about how fashion designers and retail brands can position themselves globally by working with online publishers, bloggers and social media channels to create real connections with audiences. Fantastic presentation!
