Angharad Llewellyn

 Angharad has to spell her name and explain it’s welsh origin about 25 times a day…. and no, she does not have a nickname.

When Angharad is not reading magazines, she can often be found searching the markets for vintage purchases, dreaming about getting a cat, returning to Japan to practice her new language skills, purchasing a rock’n’roll vintage car and going on safari to Africa.

Angharad loves the 60’s, Chuck Berry, red shoes and Twiggy.

The Girls Wanna Be Her, The Boys Wanna See Her

M·A·C has teamed up with high-class department store Liberty of London to create a beautiful, new, limited edition range inspired by boho-chic London style.

M·A·C has brought the quintessential British department store to life with a gorgeous 22 piece collection of lipsticks, eye shadows, powder, blush, nail lacquers and accessories.

According to M·A·C, the Liberty girl is “that youthful, stylish London girl that is unstoppable. She’s the girl that men want to sleep with and women want to be friends with. She’s beautiful, smart, has a great sense of humor, and is totally, effortlessly cool and worldly”… and who can’t relate to that?



Pop (Up) Tart

Pop Up Art

To drop it like it’s hot, it’s gotta pop… up. Whether it’s a bar, boutique or art gallery, you gotta catch-it-while-you-can or be content with the fact that it will soon be gone forever.

Getting into the spirit of pop up, appearing through a torrential thunderstorm, whilst walking down Oxford Street in Paddington at the weekend, Yen spied a pop up art exhibition featuring the works of Gavin Murphy (artist/designer) and Jonathan Cooper (photographer) through the downpour and checked in to scope the art on display.

Gavin Murphy was showing a collection of edgy art prints including a gorgeous burnished gold print of Kate Moss and bucking the current trend of sixties mania were prints including 60’s super-icon Twiggy and rock n’ roll legend Blondie.

If you are in the hood, check it out at 2/188 Oxford Street.

You know that phrase 'if you pay peanuts, you get monkeys' ???

Well, someone in Japan obviously heard it and missed the underlying tone of irony....

... bananas!

Whilst taking a break from managing the Flight of the Conchords boys, Rhys Darby still manages to find time to terrorise Roger Federa and score a stack of cash from Nike in the process.

If (like me) you are a devoted 'Chords fan, check out this advertising for some Rhys love whilst we wait for the New Zealand boys to return to our screens.
