CRYSTALLINE, AS HARD CANDY
I'm not usually one for pastels or the overtly girlish, but this palette is amazing.
I'm not a promoter of the collection itself, but this comes from CHANEL S/S '10.
The sound in this film is sharp as well--like hard candy.

ALEXANDER
Lee McQueen
16 March 1969 – 11 February 2010
The news that Alexander McQueen has killed himself is particularly devastating because it always felt to me like he’d be the last man standing. He was restless, but so pragmatic with it I assumed he had what it took to endure the extreme situations he placed himself in. He was also an arch romantic with a pessimistic streak. It produced some of the most beautiful, shocking images in the history of fashion, but it’s a state of mind that can lead to endless disappointments. The death of McQueen’s mother last week would have validated his pessimism. It would undoubtedly have taken away his most vital support. It’s awful to imagine him trying—and failing—to cope, and one can only hope that, if he was looking for peace, he found it. For everyone left behind, there will eventually be consolation, however scant right now, in a body of work whose power will never die.
