Pretty Reckless (featuring Taylor Momsen)

Courtney Love anyone?

park&cube

seriously, you have to check out this blog. 

she has a really great sense of style  and the Most Amazing (and I do not use Most Amazing lightly!) diy section; particularly if you're into the alexander wang genre of things she gives ideas for studding and shredding jeans (because really, thats all that a-wang does tbh). A-wang aside, she's making her own rodarte sweater which def. puts her wayyyy up there in the grand scheme of things

i love mk's 2006 hairstyle and reese's 2001 style. 

i'm leaning more towards mk's hairstyle though, hippie rocker.

Perpetual Sale Time

outnet.com

Wow, you know theres a recession when net a porter sets up an online 'outlet-mall'. The idea is a good one if rather strange since stores usually have outlets to get rid of old stock and the outlets are usually in less-than-accessible places so as to ensure they don't canabalise full-price sales. Online however, everywhere is equally accessible and there really isn't a signficant difference in service. I suppose this will just serve as the 'sale' section of net-a-porter with the additional interesting quirk of 'pop-up sales' whereby there are sudden sales for a few days. Now thats smart retailing; limited time always creates a sense of urgency and encourages impulse buying.

x its all in the details

Frida Giannini is one of my favourite designers. Though style.com critiques her for producing clothes that are 'too-commercial' and without the 'surprise' factor, I'm still a fan of that easy rocky edged out look. I mean cmon, I wouldn't say that alexander wang is exactly all 'surprise!'; what with sweatpants and plain white tees and all. 

I really love her eye to detail with the perfect mix of contrasting patterns and colors. Plus she came up with some awesome thigh high leather boots this season and is that bag (bottom left) not adorable! If only it didn't have the logo plastered to it -___-

wedding dresses of tulle!

i love this jumpsuit!

x fallwinter09

Roksanda Ilincic is a CSM graduate, former model, and a well known avant garde London designer. I'm absolutely in love with her ss09 collection - its so dreamy and ethereal and totally reminds me of wedding dresses with her amazing use of tulle! In a complete contrast, her fw09 collection is a lot edgier and 'harder' using animal skins and much more structure. But even then, it still retains a feminine touch and flow. <3

Apparently, her collection was Ms Anna Wintour's favourite of the ss09 london fashion week! now, That, is high praise! 

on peddar x dylan's candy bar

x china vogue

x numero april09

model of the moment, magdalena frackowiak from poland

she's had ad campaigns with ralph lauren and oscar de la renta and she opened the resort08 dior show And walked the fw09 chanel, givenchy and valentino shows in Paris. Girl is absolutely gorgeous and I'm glad its being recognised!

lane crawford

I really like Lane Crawford's new campaign; from the ads to getting tommy of jakandjil to blog on their website. The idea of capitalising on the blogging craze as well as the street-gawking, shoeporn-drooling of the younger internet savvy crowd is definately the way to go.

btw, the dress to the right is by thakoon and left by givenchy

sorry for sleeping, i've been in outerspace

x tsumori chisato fw09 for your time

usually when we think of outerspace futuristic wear we think hard materials with strong plasticy/metallic colors. just goes to show that pastel loose cotton pants can still look modern and comfy. i'm in love with her i swear.
