Charlotte Gainsbourg in Flaunt magazine - seriously cool
Last week I was contacted by the press department of the seriously cool Flaunt magazine and if you've never heard of Flaunt, you are only forgiven if you live outside the US because Flaunt is so cool, it aches.
It captures amazing and timeless pictures of fashion, arts and lifestyle culture at its highest levels and I think the magazine's photography is real quality and it has a real knack at capturing both the strengths and vulnerabilities of celebrity.
I've just watched their video of Rachel Bilson and I can't believe how gorgeous she looks but I'm totally in love with how it was filmed, it has such a cool Peter Lindbergh feel to it.
Anyway, Flaunt was writing to me because they had heard through the grapevine that I'm a big fan of Charlotte Gainsbourg (see previous post here and here and here and here again) and they kindly asked me to pass on something...errmmm....you're gonna kill me and I'm really sorry. They asked me to pass on their invitation to the Flaunt Art Issue Release party...yeah I know...pretty cool uhh....but I was so busy last week that I didn't have time to post it on the blog straight away and the party was last week...sorry :-(
Now if it makes you feel any better, the party was in Santa Monica so not everybody included me could have attended unfortunately but I have a few friends in L.A. who would have love to go...
Anyway on top of the invit', Flaunt kindly sent me some amazing photos of Charlotte Gainsbourg shot by Kurt Iswarienko to share with you (check out his site, his shots of Viggo Mortensen, Juliette Binoche and Julianne Moore are stunning!).
These shots of Charlotte are featured in the Art issue of Flaunt (out now) which also features an article about Vladimir Restoin-Roitfeld, son of Carine Roitfel, Editor of the French Vogue, Tracy Emin and many more and I think they are superb!

So here we go, I hope you like them and don't worry Flaunt has plenty of exciting stuff coming up this year and they will let me know about it, although a bit more notice would be fab :-)
I personally want to thank Ken who contacted me and then who kindly sent me high-res pictures of these shots for personal use. I'm taking the top one to the photo shop tomorrow to get it enlarged and hang it in our guest room.

Charlotte Gainsbourg, Clare Vivier & La Trop....
I'm having a bit of a Charlotte Gainsbourg week.....
On Monday when I was in Paris, my best friend Emmanuelle gave me Charlotte's latest album IRM and yesterday I received another great gift from Clare, the designer of La Tropezienne tote bag: 3 black and white photos of Charlotte Gainsbourg & Beck and these are just going to look so rock'n roll in my home :-)
Last Summer, Clare's husband filmed Charlotte Gainsbourg (who also fell in love with la Trop) and Beck's video clip when they were recording IRM and he also took some seriously cool photos.
As Clare and I are both big fans of CG, she offered to send me some photos. How nice is this?
Clare and I never met but I adore her. I think she is incredibly talented, beautiful, has an amazing sense of style and designs bags to die for. And on top of all these things, she is a maman, she runs a business which is fast becoming an empire and she is also great fun and fearless (you should read how she cut her 900 USD Yves Saint Laurent boots to turn them into ankle boots...my admiration reached new heights).
I really enjoy working with her and seeing her designs being as successful on the side of the pond on BODIE and FOU. And I know the feeling is mutual because she wrote something here that almost made me cry.
A couple of nights ago, Clare emailed me to see if I wanted to stock her latest red bag for Valentine's. I was in bed but hey... having the blackberry next to my bed, I couldn't help getting excited by the idea of having another of her designs on BODIE and FOU...Unfortunately I think it's a bit too late for Valentine's and we are selling so many La Tropezienne and wrist wraps that I'm sure Valentine's is already taken care for and a lot of gorgeous women are going to be the proud owner of a Clare Vivier design in a couple of weeks but Clare suggested to do something exclusive for BODIE and FOU....I would LOVE this....so watch this space...we haven't worked out what it would be yet but given her sense of style, I'm sure it will be fabulous.

Charlotte gainsbourg.....un autre petit canon
Sometimes I scare myself...I was just checking my personal facebook page to see how my family was doing when I saw a post from Charlotte Gainsbourg....for a split second, I thought we were friends then suddenly I remembered I joined her Facebook page as a fan.....sigh...
Frankly I really wonder what's wrong with me....
