Death Metal Tattoos: part 2

I wish I knew what this was, I really do. It looks like a totem pole of demons? With some kind of weird scarred-out blob in the middle. Is it a tribal-mutant batman logo? AND DO YOU SEE THE SCRATCHED UP FETUS ON HIS ELBOW? I mean really, how could you miss that? I don't even know what the stuff on his forearm is. If anyone can help decipher this, please let me know! I was staring at this guy for ages trying to figure it out.



I wish I knew what was on his back, too. You can see a bit of it poking out. I bet it's incredible.

Death Metal Tattoos: part 1

I went to the Maryland Deathfest this past weekend and OH BOY did I see so many amazing metal tattoos! One million distorted zombies! Ten thousand blurry black and white messes of somethingorother! A good handful of band logos! I have a LOT to share with you guys, but let me start with this gem (perhaps the best of the bunch):



THAT GIRL IS TRUE. EVIL. I love the fancy flourishes added to each word, it really rubs in the brutality of her tattoo.

Tune in soon for more!

Rainbow Sparklers

You already know how much RedPoppy loves a chunky and shimmery cocktail ring. Imagine, then, just how much more amazing such a ring is when it sparkles endlessly with a rainbow of precious stones and crystals. Lately I've come across the ornate and majestic jewelry line M.C.L. by Matthew Campbell Laurenza, whose pave-encrusted starburst rings (pictured below) and intricately-designed enamel bracelets are sold in stores including Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcuses all over the country.

Dark Denim


I have always loved a super chic straight jean skirt, and I'm always on the lookout for a new one. Which brings me to one very important denim detail: The Darker The Better. Dark-wash denim and jeans is a soaring trend for good reason, as it takes an otherwise casual look to a whole new sophisticated level.

The ultimate example in handsome denim dressing (sorry but U.S. guys, except in J.Crew catalogues, never get it this right): The European tourist (especially if he's from Spain) wandering around Manhattan, or London, in a perfect pair of crisp dark jeans, paired of course with a navy crew-neck wool sweater worn over a plaid cotton buttoned-down shirt, and finished off with a gorgeous pair of brown/caramel suede shoes. Take note people, because believe me this look works every single time!

Summer Scented

Red Poppy has always had a very choosy sense of perfume smell (especially when she only wears CHANEL No.5), but when it comes to a really pretty bottle, then sometimes it bears a second sniff. Sephora has two fragrance arrivals just in time for some fresh new summer scents: Flora by Gucci and Miss Dior Cherie by Dior. Both are floral and light, and come in two very solid and feminine glass bottles which will look tres chic on any vanity set. Available at a Sephora near you.

Britains Oldest Mother

This is Elizabeth Adeney - Britain's oldest mother-to-be. At 66, she is four years older than the previous record holder. Mrs Adeney, who is around eight months pregnant, is believed to have undergone IVF abroad because most British clinics will not treat women over the age of 50. Friends say that the divorcee, a wealthy businesswoman who is still working a five-day week, is in perfect health and looking forward to the birth of what is thought to be her first child. But her pregnancy will reignite the debate over late motherhood and the ability of science to enable women in their 50s and 60s to become mothers. Mrs Adeney will be just short of her 80th birthday when her child becomes a teenager. A friend said she had been desperate to conceive for years. Last year, she travelled to the Ukraine, where a controversial IVF clinic has helped countless women get pregnant using donor eggs and sperm.
The friend added: 'She was desperate for a child. She was over the moon when she learned last year that she was pregnant and has been quite open about it - it's not the sort of thing she can hide. 'Elizabeth has had a pretty good pregnancy. She has been very well, considering her age - I'm amazed how she keeps going. 'She does get up a little later in the mornings than she used to and sometimes spends an hour or two at home before going to work but she is still at her business Monday to Friday.'Mrs Adeney, the managing director of a firm in Mildenhall, Suffolk, which produces plastic and textile products, is described by friends as 'very bright and single-minded'. Yesterday, she declined to discuss her condition. More after the break...

The divorcee is expected to give birth by elective Caesarean 'I am a private person and while I appreciate there may be some publicity I will just ignore it,' she said. 'This has been a very personal decision and I do not feel I have to give interviews or talk to anyone in the media about what I have decided to do and where I have done it.' Mrs Adeney is divorced from Robert Adeney, a former chairman of upmarket riding and leather goods firm Swaine Adeney Brigg, which was founded in 1750. Like most older mothers-to-be, she is expected to give birth by elective Caesarean. She has hired a live-in nanny, who will help her to cope after the birth. A room in her £600,000 detached house in Lidgate, a picturesque village a few miles outside Newmarket, has already been converted into a nursery.
The news of Mrs Adeney's pregnancy has led critics to question once more whether IVF should be given to women who are past the age where they could naturally conceive. The NHS will only consider women under the age of 40.
A spokesman for the Church of England said: 'A child is a gift not a right. 'For those who have never received that gift we can well understand their desire to have children but it is always important to think in those circumstances about what is really in the child's best interests.' However, Laurence Shaw, a consultant in reproductive medicine at London Bridge Fertility Centre, said: 'The truth is, anybody might not survive to raise their children. 'Until 100 years ago, our life expectancy was 50 or so, so if you had a baby at 30 you had 20 years with your child. Now life expectancy is 80, so is it not reasonable for someone to go through a process of fitness screening to decide whether they should have a child?'
One of the chief health risks to older mothers is pre-eclampsia, which can lead to blood clots and serious complications, or even death. However, the condition, which causes high blood pressure, can be detected by regular checks. Mrs Adeney is one of a growing number of older women who have sought IVF treatment abroad in the last few years. These include Patti Farrant, who was the previous oldest woman in Britain to give birth. The psychiatrist, who uses the professional name Dr Patricia Rashbrook, was 62 when she had a son in 2006 using a donated egg from Russia.
A shortage of women willing to donate eggs in Britain - where they cannot be paid - has also driven increasing numbers of younger childless couples into travelling for treatment. The Daily Mail has investigated the growing trade in 'fertility tourism' in countries such as the Ukraine. An undercover female reporter visited one of the best-known clinics, the Isida in Kiev, where women can receive IVF treatment for around £6,000. The 43-year-old was expecting 'a general chat' about IVF but instead the clinic's medical director, Victor Zinchenko, offered to start treatment straight away. Unlike clinics in Britain, the Isida does not impose an age limit for women who are prepared to use donor eggs. The clinic refused to say how much the egg donors were paid - it is thought to be a few hundred pounds - but simply said they were 'very well rewarded' for their trouble. Fertility experts in Britain have warned that donors in other countries are not always warned of the risks of egg donation, which can even cause infertility. The oldest woman in the world to give birth was 70-year-old Omkari Panwar from India, who had a twin boy and girl last year.

More Cannes Red Carpet

According to many the festival at Cannes didn't really begin until yesterday, when Penelope Cruz set aside a bout with food poisoning to make an appearance at the various photo ops for her new Pedro Almodovar movie 'Broken Embraces.' Poor thing, it took a lot of good acting to muster up a smile in the face of distracting stomach cramps. According to even more people, the festival didn't actually begin until a dapper looking Brad and nearly naked Angelina swept into Cannes to promote Brad's new Quentin Tarantino film 'Inglorious Basterds.' Angelina wore a nude colored slit to there and backless Versace gown, but at least she looked less skeletal than usual, and a bit more robust thanks to a bright red pout. More peanut gallery below....

Gorgeous black/white looks at the Amfar evening gala (although Claudia Schiffer needed some major help in the makeup department).





I'm not a big fan of cornflower blue for eveningwear. Besides, designer Donatella Versace looks like the bride of Chucky, Liz Hurley's prom dress bored me so much I almost fell asleep, and redhead model Lily Cole's gown looked more like an ill-fitting bathing suit with a chiffon cover-up attached.






At the after-party, Brad and Angie looked a tad worse for wear, aka slightly drunk and delirious, as they mingled with Hors d'oeuvres and party revelers. I wonder who's babysitting?
