The Vampish Digs of Robert Patterson and Kristen Stewart

Robert Pattinson, House

No this isn't a set for the next Breaking Dawn movie, this is the actual home that Robert Patterson and Kristen Stewart are shacking up in. It's a five bedroom shindig set in the hills of Bel Air. More importantly, it's totally lovely, no matter who lives there. Although I swear this home has all the markings of being a Cullens home, ie: lots of glass, open concept, very sexy...

The only trouble with being Robert Patterson or Kristen Stewart is the Twihard fans that break into the community to stumble around your house. A huge faux-pas, so I'm glad these photos were posted at The Awful Truth to try and crack down on all the crazied little girls and not so little girls.

This next shot shall make you dream of running of to Hollywood and never wanting to get out of bed!

No matter who lives here, this house is fantastic. Just the sort of place I'd love to live in and watch the Twilight Saga! One thing is certain, these two sizzzle together!

Style Icon: Model, Singer, First lady Carla Bruni


At the moment, I'm feeling a bit sick, and I've been going through a phase where I haven't been posting as much. What's going on in my head? Well...I'm tired of just posting pictures of pretty rooms. I want my blog to be more. I want to generate more original content. Maybe I'm just having a style crisis. However, I must be on my way to resolve this because I did watch this video of Carla Bruni singing her hit song Quelqu'un m'a Dit and I felt so much better, not just from the cold I'm fighting. I felt that spark of passion and the desire to share with people. Isn't that why people love to blog? It's the love to share!







Carla Bruni, international model and now married to the prime minister of France, at the age of 24 told reporters that she'd never sing because she didn't want to be mediocre. I'm so thrilled that she overcame that fear and gave the world her voice. Her soothing French songs are just lovely. Isn't there a lesson for all of us in her journey?

A quick video into her process as a writer and singer. In this video you get a glimpse into her intelligent creative thoughts, but you can also see a tough inner critic. She doesn't compare herself to just other songwriters, but to poets in general. She has tough standards and raises the bar for herself when it comes to writing songs.




Carla is such a fashion icon as well. She has a timeless style, a simplicity, that isn't associated with one sort of label or designer. She manages to takes anything, like a t-shirt and a guitar, and make it into a work of art. 


An intimate look at Carla with husband Nicolas Sarkozy, prime minster of France. 


Carla arrives to meet the Queen of England. That might be a tough outfit to pick. She does so brilliantly.

Her formal attire is dazzling!

Okay...maybe I like pretty pictures!


One last song by Carla...something to dance and dream to....
