Friday Fabulousness....Men of Style....Part 1

via The Sartorialist....

I asked my very handsome friend Paul - director, buyer and designer at one of London's oldest gentlemens outfitters - to name his Top Five Style Icons....his choices...James Dean, Johnny Depp, Frank Sinatra, Guy Ritchie (who he often dresses and designs for) and Tom Ford....

The gorgeous Christina at Fashion's Most Wanted selected Steve McQueen, James Dean, Marlon Brando, Paul Newman, Cary Grant, Mick Jagger, Fred Astaire, David Bowie, Daniel Craig....(she knows her style icons!)....

Amanda at Forty Not Out (the girl who knows fashion!) chose....Tom Ford, James Dean, George Clooney, David Beckham and Marc Jacobs....

Marsha at Splenderosa chose Cary Grant, Steve McQueen, Sean Connery, Ralph Lauren, Johnny Depp, Robert Redford, Tom Ford....

Oh, this was such a fun post to do!! There will definitely be a part 2!

Thank you to Christina, Amanda and Marsha....

This first week of the holidays has absolutely flown by...lots of fun and activities....

We saw "Toy Story 3" which was just wonderful, we all loved it....a few tears were shed for sure....

I have just finished Joan Didion's "The Year of Magical Thinking" today....an amazing and very moving book which really made me appreciate the art of great writing. Ms Didion constructs each sentence so beautifully and you sense how carefully she has chosen each word - I'm really not sure I have ever noticed it so much before with any other writer.

I am now starting "One Day" by David Nicholls.

And finally....as of today, I have my new laptop....bliss :) 

Happy Week-end to you all, thank you for all the fabulous comments this week :)

PS I am dedicating this post to my pal James....definitely a man of style and a gentleman....

I have been nominated in the Fashion & Style category of the Cosmo blog awards....should you wish to do so, you can vote for me here....thank you!!
