Gatsby: A little party never killed nobody.









Suits (from top): Bespoke HQ, Vivienne Westwood and Brooks Brothers

The Great Gatsby has been one of the most talked about films this week and opened 2013 Cannes Film Festival!  Nearly 90 years after it was written, the film has it all: money, lies, passion, revenge, and glitz.

We've pulled together a little "Gatsby" inspired shoot at Beach Blanket Babylon in Notting Hill this morning, while listening to nostalgic tunes of the 20′s era! I hope you will enjoy it as much as we did...

Dancing with Gene Kelly

When I was 7 years old, I wanted to be able to dance like Gene Kelly. Who could watch "Singing in the Rain" and not want to dance down a soggy street like that man?

Pamper day in the hands of Ted.









Any gentleman likes to be pampered... and yesterday was one of those days! 

It started at Ottoman Lounge - Ted's grooming room at Theobalds road where I received Ted's tailor made service! I got my neck and cheeks razored, my ears flamed with threading, as required – and all rounded off with an invigorating hot towel and massage !! 

Few hours later, I changed into my Ted Baker blazer from the Debonair collection and attended an exclusive dinner at the Savoy London, hosted by Ray Kelvin, the closest man to Ted.  As you can imagine...champagne was flowing all night long among the greatest dapper men in Britain.  

What a treat!

The past few days have been crazy! While most of you have been enjoying the long sunny weekend, I have been working nonstop on my new projects since I came back from my trip to Rio.

My only escape was on Saturday with my friend Meriç from Istanbul. I couldn't resist visiting her for lunch at St. Pancras Hotel... while her beautiful smile and positive energy inspired me to continue my work.

Meriç is the force behind MARITSA ... a blog that has taken Turkey and the world by storm!
