The Raveonettes, Black & White, and The Craft

Today I am having a very black and white kind of day. I always feel most inspired when I'm sporting the two colors. It's also very close to that time of the year again. All Hallows Eve. A day of fun for some, and Christmas to others. What are you guys going to be for Halloween? As for me, I haven't really decided yet. I still have a few days to decided
I found some amazing pictures of Gareth Pugh's ss2009 collection. Black and white at its best. Just looking at the stills gave me intense butterflies, that my children is how I know it's a goody.

I'm speechless, those clothes are beautiful.
This song just started playing on my Itunes, and I felt as though it was a sign to share it all with you. Enjoy Here Comes Mary by The Raveonettes.


Happy almost Halloween everyone!

Cathy Horyn Deemed a Bitch and Gareth Pughs' Spring Collection

Today I read a very interesting article in The Daily Beast on the New York Times' Fashion Critic, Cathy Horyn. Cathy just happens to be my favorite established fashion writer, so I found the article a very entertaining. The article named her fashion's most feared critic which I think is just ridiculous. She's honest, I don't think that makes anyone a bitch. She can be a bit harsh sometimes, but it's refreshing to read some honest reviews. Cathy says what we'd all like to say about some collections, and it's refreshing to not read sugar coded reviews. Cathy is definitely not afraid to throw a punch. If you like to read about all things fashion, and read about it in an insightful interesting point of view, then read Cathy's blog, On the Runway. I live by her words.

Gareth Pugh, known for his crazy geometric designs has yet again released a video collaboration of his ss2011 collection. Loved the video, take a look.

Fashion's Future is Definitely Looking Bright

If it's one thing that brings me more pleasure than a good pair of heels and a slab of chocolate, it's finding a new designer to fall in love with. And that is exactly what happened after reading Garbage Dress. His name? Asher Levine. His game? Taking your breath away with his amazing designs. His garments remind me a lot of Gareth Pugh, not in the sense that he is stealing his designs but in the fact that his voice is powerful, and he likes to play with the fabric to create an unforgettable piece. Take a look at his s/s 2011 collection.






I know, how Carrie Bradshaw of me, but what kind of blog would this be without shoes. Oh yes, the one thing that makes even me weak at the knees. They're not heels, but they are still one-of-a-kind amazing.






Now take 10 minutes to watch his s/s 2011 fashion week show.







Remember his name. We'll be seeing a lot more of him in the near future.

Stay Stylish
