Two months ago I told my pseudo-boyfriend that I really hoped that Pink made a video making fun of all the blonde pop-tarts. He replied: you don’t even like Pink. It’s true, that I don’t like her music., but she’s the only one that would do something awesome like that…And then she did.
Here is a cute idea for a quick Valentine’s Day gift. You can give a handful of little hearts; string them to be a bracelet, or beef up your wrapping job on the perfect gift by plopping a heart on top. I haven’t worked out the pattern yet, but it seems that all it takes is some keen double crocheting skills and a little hand stitching for the heart’s facial expressions. And with the presence of red on the runways, this gift is very trend appropriate.
Andrae is finally gone!!! Ever since his obscene crying episode, I’ve wanted him off the catwalk. His little dress was sooooo sad. I see what he was going for with the little Chanel-like shift dress. However, his dress looked stuffy shared a striking resemblance to a doormat. I’m glad to see that my faves Chloe and Nick aka Chicklet are still in.
Check out J Brand jeans, I just bought a pair of their cigarette jeans, in black. I purchased mine at Knit Wit, a philly fave, they are also available through Rawclothing. Don’t bother looking at the J Brand website because it looks dreadful.
The simple style of this jean is a relief from all the cluttered destroyed denim that is still lurking in stores. The solid black color is refreshing, today’s market is sooooo saturated with blue washed out and blasted legs, it’s time to try something solid. These jeans are needed now more than ever, with all the long tunic tops which are so popular right now we need a simple smooth waistband and back pockets ( to avoid unfortunate bulges). These snug fitting jeans are ‘tapered with a 15″ leg opening’, translation: your foot will actually fit through the bottom opening without lots of tugging!
update: In addition to J Brand, FashionStyleChic pointed out Tsubi jeans which also are very slim and are worn by the likes of Ashley Olsen and Lindsay Lohan. My favorite thing about them is that the black/blue color is called ‘Richard Gere’.
Hmmm…Turlie is fighting me on my Asian invasion prediction, but I really think there is a strong possibility of some Asian beauties popping up in the Fall collections. Du Juan (upper right) has definitely been getting the most face time, but Ai Tominaga (upper left) was a strong presence at Ellie Saab. I’ve also got my eye on Yoon Ae (left), from Daryl K’s 2005 collection.
