I want a bowling dress! The video fashions of Paloma Faith!

Hi everyone,

I just stumbled over the music videos of Paloma Faith and damn does she have style! I want everything, especially the bowling dress!!!


It is my firm believe that the world would be a funnier place if more people would wear cute novelty dresses. What? You say novelty dresses look costum-y? I really really couldn´t care less. I´d prefer looking costum-y to looking boring ANY TIME :-)


I have a bad case of hair-envy here! And I bet Iam not the only one! I really had to make those screen shots just so I can go and play with my hair until I possibly archive this georgous hair-do. I have a feeling my clip in extensions will play and important role in that one ;-)


A sparkling dress and a hat totally over the top! Seriously. What is not to love about that????

And here´s an Paloma Faith music video! Love the colours, love the choreography and the dancers looks so handsome! :-)

My fave music videos in 2009!

Hi everyone,

I decided to do a little chart for some of my fave music videos 2009. It doesn´t matter when they where originally put on youtube, all that counts is that I saw them in 2009 - and instantly liked them!

The most controversial music video:


Cutest Retro Educational Music Video:


The most hilarious literal version:


Song about the situation most likely to actually occur to you:


Most off-beat interview prior a tv-performance:


It saddens me a bit when someone attacks me despite me not having done anything wrong, which occured yesterday. It upset me at first, but it´s not me beeing the problem and I won´t make it mine. However this happens about 1 time a year or so, so I guess I can enjoy and be happy during the other 362 days :-)

Talking about enjoying. I really enjoy working on my fringe-y outfit. It goes really smoothly and I have some fab ideas. I just need a actual definitive shooting date to come along to use it. The ones planned are still pending. And the "clothes I should shoot with" start to pile up. However I might do a little self-pic session tommorow when John visits his friend. I photoshopped another picture from my last one today as I did a DVD Workshop by Calvin Hollywood and took one of my own photos to try around. It is again one with the cute van Asch hair acessoire and off course you see it here in my blog. (Btw: there is a sale going on on their website: http://vanasch.myshopify.com). I also updated my website with another front pic of mine and added this very blog to the "News-Reel" Section.

Casting video out take

As people keep asking ;-)

This out-take didn´t make it to the finished video as I didn´t want to make them believe I´d trash up their expensive set or something... ;-) The video is in German, but I´m sure you´ll get the point anyway... If


I rewatched the original video and it doesn´t seem as embarassing anymore today ;-)

The Sari porn

Hi everyone,

no, there is no such ting as a Sari-porn (and there´ll never will be). However John said to me the beginning of my new making of video would look like one. Wether you agree or not, you can find it out here:



Actually I weanted to get out the background-noise, but my movie-maker collapsed. So no chance this time...

Anyway I already got pics from the shooting and this is my favourite so far!!!

Miss Li


That´s what you get when you listen to Swedish Radio... I think I´ll have to track down her Cd´s in Sweden.... I think she´s fab!
Plus I think she´s cute. Unfortunetly there aren´t any concerts while I´m around. Nothing going on in June :-(

Springtime Madness


Don´t you just love love love spring? I totally do! This was my first outdoor shooting this year, so it´s not really a surprise I sort of freaked out... The dance looked so funny and way better in double speed so I gave the video a 20s twist in it´s look eventhough I wear a fifties outfit. You may forgive me.

Don´t forget ot tell me if you like my new hairdo.  i´m in the process of uploading my second video, but it probably takes some more years to upload.... MAybe I can post it later/tommorow... we´ll see.

Yay!!!

I found a trailer for the cult-series Space Patrol Orion!!! It´s a wonderfull kitschy SF-series from the 60s. Me and John immediately ordered the DVD set. Anyway: You love the 60s? You love horrid conversation? Weird 60s dances? Flat irons used as space-ship props? Than this is your way to go!!!











Let´s take in a US series for good meassure, too: Batman in the 60s. 10 years ago or something they´d bring those episodes in German TV every Saturday morning









Sari goes catwoman:

Music videos that are killing me!

After seeing some hair-styling commercials from the 80s I couldn´t resist.....

The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins - Leonard Nimoy




I Wanna Love You Tender by Finnish band Armi ja Danny




I just can´t decide which dance is worse.... ;-)
