Tom Ford

I personally wanna thank you for this collection. Thanks for reminding this world what brilliance is all about. No less than brilliant! And while I’m at it – Yes, I’d wear each and every piece of this collection. Many times. For many years.
Oh, and that jacket? Yes, please. My birthday is Jan 22nd. I’ll be in NYC, probably. No need to ship overseas. I’m THAT nice!

Now enough with the dreams. Just watch. And dream a little more:




To die for. I know.

Hogan by Karl Lagerfeld

Karl Lagerfeld shot the campaign for his collaboration with Hogan himself. Watch it here:

It’s so… Karl. Black and white, the scary music, Paris, love… You can say just about everything about this one, but the bottom line is that you can actually see the clothes. Not taken for granted!

New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2011 – first 2 days

Before it gets crazy and too hard to do, I want to collect my favorite looks from the first two days of shows, started September 9th. (You can see the full schedule of the shows here). The challenge: no more than 3 favorite looks from each collection. Let’s see if I can do this:

BCBG Max Azria – (link is to Bryanboy’s video of the finale of the show)

I mostly love the colors, very happy to see mustard yellow and coral (one of my favorite colors) and grey, and fun wavy silhouettes -

Costello Tagliapietra – definitely the silhouettes. These are the outfits I liked best. I have to admit it – I didn’t like most of the collection, just these 3:

Jason Wu – ( link is to Bryanboy’s video) No need to add words. He rocks this summer. It was very hard to pick 3 outfits and not just post the entire collection:

Julian Louie, Nicole Miller, Peter Som (link is a video from the show taken by Bryanboy), Ports 1961, Bensoni, Gregory Parkinson, Jen Kao, Kimberly Ovitz, Mandy Coon, Nicholas K, Rachel Comey, Richard Chai Love, - not my style this season, sorry. Didn’t feel like I have anything to write home about…

Rag & Bone – I can’t even imagine what happened there. Too weird for me. I didn’t get the silhouettes, the shapes, the prints, those straps… no no no. Huge disappointment.

Christian Siriano – most (if not all) of his designs are packed with last year’s trends, one-by-one. Yet, it’s not taken for granted that his collection is very wearable and chic, comfortable and has nice summer colors in it:

Ruffian – great collection guys! It was very hard to pick 3. I could pick 10, no sweat. Love the fabrics, the styling, the combinations, the colors – I pretty much loved it all:

Famous film director Martin Scorsese directed a short ad  commercial for Chanel. Nope, you can hardly top that perfect combination, even if you think about it really really hard! Watch it, here:

Happy New Year | Shana Tova :-)

There’s nothing I’m looking forward to more than going out of the city tomorrow. It’s a long holiday weekend, and I really need to get some air that doesn’t come out of my laptop.

May this year be the breakthrough it seems already to be,

May it be sweet, and tendering,

Loving and easy,

Healthy and inspiring,

Interesting and always surprising.

Philip Lim, Tunic

I found this great image while browsing sites for fashion news. I couldn’t just overlook and had it opened for a few days now.

I decided that it’s worth sharing. For sure. Taken from here.
