Psychedelic Swirly Sparkly Goodness

Tripping prints and sparkles at Al Othman Outlet. This is the first and last time you will hear me express admiration for Matthew Williamson. I LOVE the pink and green acid-trip one. The camera was not out of focus that is how it actually is. Fantastically dizzying. I want!!!

Behnaz Sarafpour dress. Matthew. Matthew. Matthew. I don't know. Matthew.

Water World. Eidkom Mubarak!

Just watch these when you need calm. Beautiful. And the first one is creepy and disturbing yet so beautiful in an Edgar Allen Poe way. Aaaah to be a mermaid!

Eid Shopping: Walk-In Closet

Walk-In Closet is a small shop but they have a happy mix of unknown and little-known brands. And the BEST sunglasses in K-Town, hands down.

Pretty Kaale Suktae dress, none in my size. Kim Kardashian. Marc Bernstein bracelets. Linda Farrow. Linda Farrow. Kaale Suktae.

Bosworth for Bruno

I usually don't like Kate Bosworth because I find her very boring, but they really managed to work her features for this Vanessa Bruno campaign. I like it!

CORNWALL, UNITED KINGDOM. MARCH 2011.

Boot camp in Cornwall (south-west England) was exhilarating. We would wake at 5.00 in the morning with chattering teeth and jump in the pool and compete. We'd do X-treme rope tricks 20 meters up in the air. We would hike for eight hours along the cliffs (my favourite part). Almost half the number of people we started out with were gone by the end of the week. Weaklings! There was mud, sheep, green and beauty every where. I loved every second of it. Most people go to Cornwall for surfing and sun and in the summertime and I'd love to do that someday but I must say that getting my boot camp on in March made for the best first memories there.

Love,

Nomad

Travelling is a huge part of my life. To explore the world, to bathe in it's seas, to dive in it's fairy pools, to roll on its grasses and trek across its deserts is not a luxury, it is necessary for my survival. I am a gypsy, a nomad, a wanderer, a permanent peripatetic. So I've decided it's about time to listen to Overdressed and share the wonderful places I've been with you guys and maybe serve to catapult you in new directions and inject you with drops of my wanderlust. Crave the world kids, and you'll never look back!

And This Is Where All My Money Goes

The result of one a half days on Charing Cross. Welcome to my world. And yes that IS the photo edition of Thesiger's Arabian Sands on the bottom!

November's New Bakery in Tilal

Dieu, He's Beautiful

How dare he be so gorgeous?

Fredrik Ferrier ladies and gentlemen. And there's more. If they could take everyone out of Made In Chelsea except Fred, Francis and Agne I'd be very happy. The rest are so annoying.

She Dance To The Beat of My Drum

At first I felt... ? And then she started to dance and the whole combination of her lack of energy, monotone, colouring and the way she doesn't open her mouth when she says "dance" just got me. I love it.

Moza Feeds the Birds. Tuppence a Bag.

Extremely rare photo of glamorista ICON H.H. W.R.VC (She deserved extra honours- so I made some up) Sheikha Moza feeding the biiirds... tuppence a bag. Tuppence, tuppence tuppence for biiirds! She was born glamming.

Interest Books in My Collection: Atlas of Remote Islands

I prefer the term interest books over coffee-table books. Coffee table rings too much of the giant Helmut Newton/Testino glossies cutiegirls buy from Selfridges for insta-credibility. This series takes a look at some of the wonderful special-interest books I've managed to find along my book bingeathons. Sharing is caring.

I found this lovely volume sitting alone and tempting on the shelf at Foyles and absolutely wasn't about to resist. I love travel, and islands. I've literally been begging someone to come with me to the Sandwich Islands for, what, ever? and no one seems to give me face. Anyway, this book is a funny introduction to remote, usually uninhabited islands in remote, uninhabited parts of the world. From former Cold War spy-lands to ones names after fictional characters, the content looks like my next vacation list. Nothing I love more than poking around rusting Soviet spy apparatus on a spit of sand in the middle of the Pacific. I'm totally serious.
