I got the chance to meet Juergen Teller at Cafe de Flore during Paris fashion week…an interesting man he is. He is normally seen wearing trainers, running shorts and a blazer but his photography for the Fall/Winter 09/10 Self Service magazine is alluring with his use of colour and contrast. One of the shoots takes place in a castle in Germany with 500 rooms, but they could only manage to take photos in 100 of them. Make sure you check the magazine out!

Finland is the new ‘it’ place for breeding talented designers and trendy fashion. Finnish designer, Julia Lundsten who launched her brand FINSK in 2004, uses nature as her muse. With fish skin and wooden architectural pieces as heels, FINSK shoes are oh so naturally pretty.
