Venus in Furs: Happy Birthday Kate Moss

We continue our Capricorn appreciation from Bowie to Kate Moss, whose 39th birthday falls on January 16th. Back in the 90's she was one of a few "supermodels" who ran the world. "We don't get out of bed for less than $10,000 a day" Linda Evengelista famously said of the super-powerful supermodels. But that is just chump change to Kate now, who currently commands $400,000 a day.

She has as much appeal as she ever had, she is the muse of artists, designers and musicians. She is the most beautiful woman in the world...
...But the reason I love her is because she laughs like this:

and this:

It is just a raw, unguarded laugh. She just lets it all hang out and it's pure joy.


You are my favorite girl. Happy Birthday Kate!

Beautiful Bowie: The Man Who Fell to Earth

In honor of Bowie's triumphant return and in celebration of his birthday yesterday, I got to digging up some of my favorite photos of his glory days (though, don't get me wrong, he is still glorious). I love him especially in The Man Who Fell to Earth, which I think is very reflective of who he really is, a beautiful alien.
