sun gods

Leave it to Karen Walker to stir up the golden habit of wearing sun protection, her Spring 2010 sunglasses will make you the hottest thing, after the sun. I'm digging the tortoise shell a great deal.

Prada Spring/Summer 2010 Accessories. The 360-degree view. Pretty awesome vid, check it out.

this is it

My favorite pieces from Costume Dept. Spring/Summer 2010. The gold sequin jacket? That tops the list. Reminds me of MJ in a way. Maybe because I'm about to watch the movie in a couple of hours. It's gonna be epic. Time to get bloated with popcorn!

all that sass

Sass & Bide Spring/Summer 2010. The first collection to appear on the London catwalk for Sydney-based designers Heidi Middleton and Sarah-Jane Clarke, with a troupe of Aztec-inspired goddesses, embellished to the tribal nines. Stunning!

the quirky bird

Giles Deacon's latest collection in Paris was anything but ordinary. Spiders, ballerinas and dinosaurs paved the way with chic metallics, bright neons, pastels and retro eyewear. Some of which makes for fun, non-costume Halloween garb.

girls just wanna have fun

In love with the details. Miuccia Prada interprets "youth and innocence" for Miu Miu Spring/Summer 2010 in Paris with a captivating collection of naive animal prints, holographic paillettes and crystallized sheers.

a new fairy tale

Valentino Spring 2010. Too beautiful for words. Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Piccioli continues to mesmerize with romantic ruffles, tulles, antique laces and sheers. Perfect for a modern day Cinderella.

it glitters in spring

Alber Elbaz showed a glorious collection of cocktail dresses and killer jumpsuits in gorgeous plissé, drapery and ruffles (a familiar Lanvin aesthetic) along with a serious indulgence of exuberant color and embellishments. High glamour of the most powerful sort. Served with fruity frozen cocktails. Definitely one of my favorites.

supernova

"The girl is a little beat up, a little kind of grunge — she’s not perfect," Lazaro Hernandez tells The Cut. Animal prints run amok in novel, bold colors. Cocktail numbers in heavy embellishments. Short, sexy silhouettes. This is as close to perfection as it gets. Proenza Schouler Spring 2010.

sense & sensibility

One of my favorite collection for New York Fashion Week has to be Preen. Thornton and Bregazzi brought their Londoner sensibilities for Spring 2010 collection that was both romantic and refined. Sheer cutouts, hints of lace and gorgeous embellishments (where fabrics were knotted, crumpled and twisted in the upmost Preen way) paved the way in spot on colors.
