style was invented by the British

I am back. Alas, not for very long. My holiday in Fuerteventura was superb —sun and relax to the maximum. This will probably be the only post in a few days since I am flying (and moving) to London tomorrow and it will take me a while to fully settle down in my new flat. Hopefully I’ll be back around Monday with fresh inspiration made in the land I so much adore.
This is won’t be a long post but I could not ignore the release of this pictures. It is no secret that pure style runs through Jude Law’s veins —his cocky-self lets know he, too, is well aware of it. I have to admit that as much as I admire him and his damn skills to pull off everything I am also green with envy at the sight of the following pictures.






Jude is the new image for Dior’s Homme Sport fragrance and also for the British house Dunhill fall/winter'08 collection.The latter is one of those old Brit tailoring brands that never strikes me as boring old-fashioned rather than as fresh or fashion-oriented. Their marketing department should be happy to know that their idea for the campaign has utterly changed my mind in that sense. Dunhill is portrayed as the wardrobe for the 21st-Century dandy. A gentleman of the current times who has the style and confidence to mix smart and casual-wear looking elegant and modern, classic with an edge.

I’m off.

Two things annoy me about Jude Law

1) he always wears his shirts low to show off his chest which makes me cringe

2) he slept with his children's nanny, and she wore pink ugg boots.

But he does look good in these ads.

I agree! I don't normally like Jude Law but this Dunhill ad has changed my mind... Also found out that the creative minds behind the ads are these people from a small company called O Studio. Here, check them out in www.lebook.com/ostudio
All credits to them!

Jude Law is damn sexy!But I like him mostly because he looks like...or his eyes are similar with my favorite MotoGP rider Valentino Rossi...
But I'm surprised that guy is admired by Jude!;)my boyfriend always start shouting on me when I'm saying about any sexy star;)
