Super Trooper. Fucking Fabulous.

This shoot of Natasha Poly for MUSE is one of my FAVORITES EVER. I was just going to post an "Image of the Day" but I had to post the whole shoot. From the eye of Sølve Sundsbø and styled by Marie Chaix. Entitled "Super Trooper" there is nothing soft about this shoot, my favorite detail being the Geisha makeup applied to the back of her neck.. and the Chanel masked robber shirt..




Sorry I've been lagging lately, I have had a lot of doctors issues going on and have been sick. I'm slowly doing better, Thank God for Fashion, it's what keeps me going. I've also been super busy working on my jewelry line, soo happy about the progress I've made with the help of so many of my amazing friends and my family. Stay tuned for the launch of my website, doing a shoot with a great friend for the line in 2 weeks!

Siri & Constance for BLACK.

Siri Tollerod & Constance Jablonski for BLACK Magazine shot by Michael Schwartz. Siri is soooooooo versatile, her ability to take on almost any character in each and every shoot I see her in earns her top markings in my book.

I Spy Dior..

This Springs Dior collection is amazing, inspired by cinematic day dreams of Lauren Bacall, a former client of the house. It reminds me of of a Spy Girl ala "Femme Noir-esk", super sleek & sexy, sophisticated and powerful yet girly. From the python platform wedges to the structured waist jackets.. This collection is 110% ready to wear, which is so rare for the typical RTW collections from Mister Galliano..

The play on lingerie and the Spies trusty trench coat, is one the of main reasons I love this collection. John is pure genius, who never ceases to amaze me.. Feminine and fabulously executed this line is sure to please Dior's clients as well as shine editorially.

The gowns from this collection oozed the typical sex appeal of Dior, meshing a flesh pink corset and a long draped mint green sequin-sprinkled skirt, a chantilly smothered basque and black ruffled skirt, and a vamp red satin gown.. Capturing the romantic essence of Dior couture while making it RTW.

I LOVE DIOR<3

"Obsessed" with Natasha Poly

Another sneak peak at Natasha Poly's shoot for Muse shot by Riccardo Tisci entitled "Obsessed". I'll soon be receiving my own, Special Edition copy of this fabulous issue of Muse, straight from Paris. My best friend who lives in Paris, assigned her little brother whom I also love, to snatch me a copy of it while Natasha was at the store doing a signing. I'm sooo excited to see the whole issue.

Runway to the Sea. Proenza Schouler Sp 2010

The boys of Proenza Schouler brought a whimsical look to the runway, with a fresh and young ocean inspired collection for Spring 2010. From amazing tie-dyes that resemble fish in the sea to a play on the board shorts turned into pants. Great tailored jackets provided a hint of sporty-ness while the tank dresses, shirt dresses (super super SHORT) and colorful baby dolls evoked a fun and flirty feeling..

Shoes were super cute wedge-heel woven sandals that almost looked like waves or fish.. I thought the collection was super cute and loved the use of colors mixed with the masculinity of the board short inspired pants.. and Lazaro and Jack aren't too hard on the eyes either..

Lanvin Spring RTW 2010

Alber Elbaz's Spring collection was one of the most amazing shows of the season. With an amazing play on textures, draping and sheer brilliance. The show took place in an industrial space on the out skirts of Paris, with a runway that was said to have been the longest ever. There was an abundance of colors like pink, salmon, peach, and vermilion as well as a dash of extraordinary fine leather and of course the staples of black and gray.

Accessories were STUNNING. From the BEAUTIFUL rope snakes, the large bib necklaces and gigantically over sized chains there necklaces were nothing short of AMAZING with bracelets equally as fabulous. Pops of color and drama from the jewelry pulled the looks of the collection together full circle for me..

Purses and shoes were elegant, and not super over the top, jewel encrusted clutches and smaller hand bags. Shoes were kept simple with anklet details in black & python as well as black and nude leather. They didn't seem as high as most shoes on the runway as of current, which wasn't bad, but would have made this collection even more mind boggling for me..

Lanvin has always been one of the most expensive looking houses for me, the sense of Parisian style and elegance reminds me of what my definition of real glamor is..

The Reign of Balmain.. Spring 2010..

Balmain, Balmain, Balmain. I die every season. The Spring 2010 show just took place today at 3:oo pm in Paris at the Intercontinental Paris Le Grand Hotel. This season the collection reminded me of a reference to Joan of Arc and "dirty battle fields ancient" Greece, especially with the seemingly makeup free models sent down the runway with wind swept hair.

The house took a drastic turn from 80's Glitz to a more grungy dirty glam look.. Shoes seem to be reminiscent of Alexander Wang's boots from his Fall 2009 collection.. The strong shoulders are still present, which I LOVE and the pieces are still shiny slam via lamé & shiny black leather as well as sequins.

Jackets retained the strong shoulders and jeans that were acid washed and ripped last season are now either muted in tone or full length metallic.. and there's the addition of cut off denim short shorts as well..

In my personal opinion "Balmainia" as some are calling it (due it the double in sales since 2006)) is a clear indicator of what today's fashion lovers are going gaga over.. From the $2,000 jeans to the $9,900 jackets its no wonder why I still wonder if there's still a "financial crisis" or not.. for me.. there isn't one.. and if I were a girl, I'd be in the hospital with "Balmain-ia"..

Verasce for Clueless featuring The B-52's.

Wow, I'm at a loss for words in regards to my excitement towards the Spring RTW 2010 collection for Versace. The BOLD and SEXY approach to this collection is very reminiscent to the old days of this always amazingly sexy house.

It's youthful and and fresh style made me make a connection, while watching shows with my own music choice, that this collection would be a dead ringer for my personal wardrobe choices for the Clueless sequel everyone is gabbing about.

The collection is also amongst my top favorite picks for this Springs shoes, from the amazing booties, to the strappy sandals, paired with wood and and metallic silver accent on the heels, the shoes take a very futuristic turn which makes the neon colors from the looks totally cohesive, bringing full circle what I like to call, Clueless Chic..

Its by far my favorite shows from Milan this season..

Stam Bam.

Finally, a shoot where I actually felt like Stam showed some A game. I'm typically not a huge fan of her's, actually, I've grown to detest her after seeing her at a party where she was wearing sandals and the bottoms of her feet were BLACK, lol.

Shot by Mariano Vivanco for Numero Korea, she proves to probably the only person in the world, (me) that she really does have face.

England via Venus..

The beautiful Kinga Rajzak plays "The Lady Who Fell To Earth" in an amazing editorial shot in true form to his whimsical and imaginative style, photographer Tim Walker. Styled in Alexander McQueen, Chanel and Balenciaga, this shoot brings a fun sense of fashion paired with a truly aspirational theme.

Shot in the English Country side, this shoot was executed perfectly.

Natasha for Vogue China

Natasha adds yet another Vogue cover to her book with Vogue China for October 2009. I really wish we saw more of her on the covers for Vogue US but with American's lame ass need for celebrities on the covers of FASHION magazines, I guess that's less likely to happen. Its actually the first thing I say when I'm questioned about things I don't like about the American fashion industry.

I'm so looking forward to Fashion Week's in Paris and Milan, its when the real models come out to play.

THE Cover.

Its here. THE cover of the year.. (for moi)

My Muse, MUSE's Muse.

Hitting new stands in NYC September 1oth, MUSE has dedicated AN ENTIRE issue to fashion's (as well as my) personal favorite, Natasha Poly.

Natasha Obsessed is sure to send her even further into the rhelme of the Super's. I've never wanted a magazine so bad, and believe you me, I will have this the day it comes out haha. I knew years ago she would make it, and this issue of Muse just proves it.

Designers like Parada and Givenchy's Riccardo Tisci are head over heels for this 24 year old Queen of the Runway.

Congrat's Natasha!




Set 1: Natasha by Riccardo Tisci
Set 2: Natasha by Sølve Sundsbø

PYT's Take Cover

i-D's Septembet Cover pays homage to the amazing African America girl's that are current dominating the runways. Jourdan Dunn, who is our pick of the group, Chanel Iman, Sessilee Lopez & Arlenis Sosa play it cool in the issue intitled PYT's.

We do wish that Chanel and Arlenis had different looks on their faces. Jourdan and Sessilee are really showing them whose got real face.. Doesn't Jourdan even kind of have this black Lindsay Lohan-esq kind of smirk going on..? "Love's It"

THE Cover.

Cover's Cover's Cover's! The glossies battle it out for the most anticipated issue of the year, the yearly September Issue. While I would have loved to include a few other covers in this sneak peak, I am one of the fashion lovers who DETESTS celebrities being on the covers of fashion magazines. ( I know, I still included US Vogue and V Magazine covers, but that was a given, especially Lady Gaga) With fashion week just around the corner I couldn't help but feel the need to throw together all of the covers for this infamous month of Fashion.

Enjoy.
