anne valérie hash fall 2008 couture

review coming soon!

oh man!

Here's Natasha Poly pulling off men's wear, straight from the pages of July 2008's issue of Vogue Russia. I think the styling is fantastic.







The look is very structured and tailored (and just a bit black-tie event), but with girly accents.

daily entries

Okay! Hope you enjoy the updates! I'm going to be posting basically daily from now on. I don't know about a weekly icon/picture update, maybe bi-weekly. We'll see. Happy Wednesdays. Here are a few pictures. Stay fabulous (maybe not fashionable, whatever :) )

patriotism

And just in time for the Fourth of July! This spread was All-American feel in a off-beat, quirky way. And the outcome was simply adorable. Here are the pictures from A4's story Terrific.







I think stylist Charles Manning did an excellent job with this. Basically, the title's spot-on.

harper's in the future

Another cliché shot. The model dressed in futuristic digs, just hanging out in a middle-of-nowhere dingy... dare I say junkyard? Yeah. The shoot, titled The Day After Tomorrow, appeared in UK's Harper's Bazaar, July 2008 issue.

badgley mischka spring 2008 rtw

Okay, here's the deal. I love Badgley Mischka. Now that that's out there, I highly recommend you guys check out style.com and look at the complete collection because there are so many amazing outfits that I can't post all of them! Well, here are a few.









There's so much variety in this collection. Neutrals and brights, structured and flowing. I can't stand how adorable this collection is!

sonia rykiel fall 2008 rtw

yes, yes. Fall. Maybe a little sneek peek? I honestly love this show more than anything right now. The hair pieces, the bright stripes, long cardigans, platform oxfords, and incredibly comfy-looking sweaters.






I also love the round sunglasses, the crown!, and the purses. I also like how the girls are smiling! :)

rodarte spring 2008 rtw

First off, I want to say that I love the stuff Kate and Laura Mulleavy (designers of Rodarte) do, always. However, their designs are really out there for ready-to-wear. The spring show featured an ethereal feel. The garments looked a lot like water, and shimmery pastels were a very prominent theme. Check it out.






I couldn't help but notice the pink extensions peeking out from their ponytails. The dresses' silhouettes are airy and fluffy, very girly and cute-sy. I suppose those aspects of the clothes are "ready to wear" for summer.
