My Christmas Picks

Oh yes, it's that time of the year when we all choose gifts!
For family and friends - and for ourselves as well, duh.
Influenced by the amusing post on style.com about what fashionistas would get their closest people - and themselves for Christmas, I decided to make one for myself as well.
Of course, dreaming is allowed, so I took my post to a level matching theirs. I bet Rachel Zoe won't buy herself a 100.000$ picture and a car at the same time! (at least I hope I'm not wrong)
Anyway, here are my carefully chosen gifts for the people who make my life better than it really is. Enjoy!

Chloé becomes YSL?

Or does it?!
The ad has been floating around for months (since August to be more precise) and it wasn't until yesterday when the cheeky guys from WWD spotted the embarrassing mistake.
Instead of featuring an-all Chloé outfit (duh) in the ad campaign for Chloé Love perfume, Ezra Petronio - creative director for the fragrance and Inez Van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin - photographers, decided to randomly place an YSL belt in the shot.

*NOTE* Notice the logo on the belt - YSL

If you ask me, I don't think these things happen without a reason - an YSL belt doesn't just magically appear on set. The clothes and accessories for the shoot have been taken from the Chloé workroom, meaning there CAN'T be any YSL belts there. Am I the only one who thinks the belt has been brought to set on purpose? I am sure the YSL company is getting a lot of press right now with every blog featuring the mistake. Smart, no?
