Baptiste Viry

2010-10-19T07:43:00.000-07:00

A little late to be mentioning Spring/Summer 2010 collections, but I just saw these pieces from the Baptiste Viry line. If I could just have that brown leather bow at the top!

Alexandra Grecco's Spring Film

2010-10-05T06:54:00.000-07:00

Completely mesmerized by this magical Spring 2011 collection film from Alexandra Grecco. Her designs are just divine. Hannah, Mandy, Alisa, and Tara are beautiful, and Dan Eastbrook is an amazing director. It's one giant step back in time.

Orla Kiely Illustrations

Great illustrations of the Orla Kiely SS 2011 collection by Yelena Bryksenkova Found via Amelia's Magazine.

Kinetic Eyewear

2010-09-28T11:07:00.000-07:00

How awesome is this innovative Kinetic Collection by Kirk Originals! Not only are the frames a really great shape and size, but the panel designs add great animation and depth as you move. The four different designs include spectrum, flash, skull, and eqauliser. Inspired by the world of technology, these are pretty much the best geeky, computer-nerd glasses of all time.

There's some other really great glasses on the Kirk Originals site too!

70's Honey

THOU SHALT NOT COVET.
THOU SHALT NOT COVET.
Especially when it's $1,100. Damn, Salvatore Ferragamo, the things you do to me.

Antipodium S/S 2011

2010-09-28T10:18:00.000-07:00

I'm all about prints that find a happy medium between my girlie style and my love for the outdoors and all the great things in nature and I think the Antipodium Spring collection is the perfect round up for that. The entire thing reminds me a bit of Miu Miu, but I don't mind that so much. Sheers and prints will always be a win in my book, especially when they're bug prints.

Botany: Feeling Today

2010-09-26T09:22:00.000-07:00

I know I don't talk about it enough, but as much as I'm into pretty girls wearing sweet white dresses and creative designers making videos for their collections, I'm really really into music! I read music blogs all the time. I'm always getting emails regarding fashion, but I've never received one about music. You can imagine my surprise when I opened this email from Western Vinyl in Austin, TX featuring a track from Botany's upcoming EP, Feeling Today.

To make it even better, I actually loved the track! I raced over to Gorilla vs. Bear since they're usually my first source for music, and I didn't find anything on the band. One day later and Botany's the greeting face of the blog! Enough said. Watch out for Botany.

There's something so enchanting about these photographs from Jody Rogac.

Charles Jourdan & Guy Bourdin

2010-09-23T05:35:00.000-07:00

I'm always a big fan of vintage ads, but especially when they feature peter pan collars, saddle shoes, and super flat loafers! This is just another collaborations from photographer Guy Bourdin and shoe designer Charles Jourdan. The last photos I posted are also a collaboration between the two !

Guy Bourdin

2010-09-23T05:30:00.000-07:00

I love these shots from Guy Bourdin which admittedly, I found after reading through Kayne Wests' twitter timeline last night. Sometimes I think a friend or entourage member should probably take the phone away from him! Besides the fact that the photos and photo concept are great, I really like the outfits these girls are wearing!

Ruby @ New Zealand Fashion Week

2010-09-22T05:32:00.000-07:00

I'm all about this collection from another New Zealand design team, Ruby. The looks and colors feel so outdoorsy, but there still so much girl to them as well. The pants remind me a lot of pantaloons which I really, really like!

Juliette Hogan @ New Zealand Fashion Week

2010-09-22T05:25:00.000-07:00

I'm loving these looks from designer Juliette Hogan's show at New Zealand Fashion Week, and the fact that she used 60's housewives for inspiration. I especially want that very last dress! See an interview with the designer here.

Fischer for Spring

2010-09-16T06:24:00.000-07:00

It feels good to finally see the rest of the Fischer S/S lookbook. I'm not quite as in love with the clothes in this collection as I was with the last, but I still totally connect with the aesthetic they're trying to create with the photographs. Beautiful!

Alexa Chung in Rachel Antonoff

2010-09-15T17:37:00.000-07:00

Oh, pretty Alexa in your pretty Rachel Antonoff. Never an unstylish day in this girls life.

Lara Parker for Spring

2010-09-15T17:26:00.000-07:00

I may find Rachel Berry a tad bit annoying on the Fox hit television show Glee, but you can bet I'm envious of every single outfit she puts on. That's probably why I love this New Zealand collection by Lara Parker so much. It was inspired by the eager high school glee club character herself!

Steve Alan for Spring

Steven Alan "Mixed Doubles" Spring 2011 from crystal moselle on Vimeo.

I thought this Steven Alan video for Spring 2011 was super adorable and sooo stylish. I wish I could say more, but if I do, I may miss my flight to New York! Found via Refinery 29.

Fischer for Spring

2010-09-11T06:19:00.000-07:00

A sneak peak at Fischer's Spring/Summer 2011 line. I'm seriously obsessed with whoever's behind these beautiful creations, and I love that they do looks for both men and women. Look how sexy that man looks! Found via Fischer's Facebook page.

70's In Real Life

I was gathering up some 70's inspiration when I found this photo. I like this family. :)

WHIT by Whitney Pozgay

2010-08-31T11:34:00.000-07:00

So in love with this new line called WHIT, by Whitney Pozgay. Simple, yet well-constructed basics that will get you through fall. I found and bought a similar brown skirt already, but now Ive got to find a navy jumper!

A 1930's Trending Forecast

2010-08-29T14:24:00.000-07:00

I thought this was amusing. It's just a few 1930's designers opinions on what they think will be the trendy designs in the year 2000 A.D.!

Babes In Mobland

2010-08-27T09:46:00.000-07:00

I love this editorial from the September issue of Vanity Fair. I should've known it was Ellen Von Unwerth as soon as saw it! It's titled, Babes In Mobland, and it features the cast of HBO's Empire Boardwalk.

Stella Pardo F/W 2010

2010-08-24T06:41:00.000-07:00

I remember back in January when I first saw this Stella Pardo collection hanging on the racks, and how simple and beautiful and brilliant I thought it was. An entire collection of dreamy knitwear? I'll take it.

Photographer Inspiration: Micaela Hoo

2010-08-19T15:58:00.000-07:00

I found these photos on Facebook after my new friend Micaela commented on one of my posts. It took a couple days, but I finally put two and two together and realized that I knew Micaela under a different name: The Drifter and the Gypsy. Hello, I should've known she had a lovely blog to match these photos!
