gracefully pretty



remembering the beautiful, beautiful grace kelly ... today would have been her 80th birthday

ah, this face, this look, this sense of style ...

happy birthday, loriot!


it is a great pleasure to celebrate vicco von bülow's 87th birthday today. he is a great satirist with the subtlest sense of humour and an adorably dignified man.

gays in modern society


tonight i watched the german talk show 'menschen bei maischberger' ... the title of tonights broadcast being 'gays taking over', mrs. maischberger had a very interesting bunch of guests.
the mayor of berlin was accompanied by a lesbian actress, a member of the conservative party csu and two gay couples...

it was truly moving to watch the artists john guenther and alfred kaine talk about the decades after wwII when homosexuality was still a punishable crime and how much psychical suffering they had to endure until the situation for gays became as benign as it is today .... they are such a sweet and admirable couple who have been together for almost 50 years now - best of luck and joy!

read an interview (in german) here

the hair


i recently tried a new style...

i went to this party and while i was getting ready in the bathroom, i realized that my hair was way too long. so i used some american crew and ended up with this 50's hairstyle, grabbed a dark grey dkny tshirt and hurried to catch my bus.
the party was very amusing and when a friend took a pic i quickly grabbed a cigarette - and this was the result.

looks familiar? compare with james dean here


maiden post


good day,

the first post on my new blog - i'm celebrating within. although i'm not entirely sure about contents yet it's surely going to be a stunner. :)

meanwhile, why don't you take a bite of this tasteful piece of belgian confiserie above. seen at: eugene & louise's bakery
