Christopher Kane for Topshop

I don't really shop at Topshop too much, I admire from afar but I shop there very seldom. I think it's kind of overpriced, especially since a lot of the items are so trendy that they will go out of style soon. However, I just laid my eyes on Christopher Kane's latest collaboration with Topshop and I may just have to start saving my money now. I love so many of the 39 pieces Kane created for the store, not to mention the shoes are gorgeous! Here are my favorites below, now I just have to decide which one piece to spend my money on...perhaps the crocodile dress, but I bet every girl will be walking around in that one (there's a tee version too), so then maybe one of the beautiful black dresses, but I already own a lot of black, so maybe a colorful baby-doll dress or the embellished tights are also a big contender. I just can't pick one, but thankfully I have a couple of weeks until the line hits stores to decide!

Sweet Child of Mine

Vogue Nippon - August 2009

I love love love this editorial for several reasons:
1. It was shot by the amazing Terry Richardson, who I actually saw walking down the street in Soho today!!!!!
2. I love her hair, I have bangs like that now so I just have to grow out my hair a bit more to get that length.
3. I love the nose ring, usually girls use a stud or jewel for their nose ring, but I like it this way, too bad I took out my nose ring last year.
4. Black is my favorite color
5. I love the clothes especially the outfit in the 3rd pic
6. Abbey Lee Kershaw is gorgeous

Working 9 to 5

So my 2nd day in NYC I landed a fantastic internship and I'm loving every minute of it! I think the only thing stressing me out about this new job is finding something stylish and chic to wear to work every day. This is especially difficult since I am not living in my own place yet and so all my clothes are in 4 very unorganized suitcases. Anyways on to the point of this post, while browsing through my favorite fashion sites last night I found two collections that I would love to wear to work. Unfortunately as I am only interning now, I will not be able to afford these clothes for a while, but at least they can inspire me when I get dressed in the morning!

Firstly I stumbled upon Chloe Sevigny's line for Opening Ceremony, which was designed brilliantly to be unisex. The collection is made up of clean basics that when styled together create simple, yet effortlessly chic looks for men or women. The black skinny pants are especially cute when paired with the pink plaid button down and I love the sleek look of the wide-leg pants as well. I also like the scarf pullover sweater, which shows influence from one of Chloe's favorite designers, Miguel Adrover. All these pieces can be easily mixed and matched with one another or other items in your closet OR even your boyfriend's closet, since as Chloe shows us here unisex is the new black!
The second collection that I would love to wear to work is a more affordable diffusion line from Swedish label Minimarket, adorably called Mini for Many! I love the colors incorporated into this collection, the bubblegum pink, silver, and rich orange combine wonderfully with the neutrals. There is also a great variety of styles including skinny pants, flirty summer dresses, sleek pencil skirts, and striped espadrilles. Oh and these images are definitely making me want to try out the equestrian cap! Overall I think Mini for Many is full of fun and sweet pieces that are still chic and smart enough for the 'fashionable' office.

I know it's almost a year old, but I love Kate in this editorial! My friend asked me last week if I could choose anyone, which famous person would I want to look like and I picked Kate, I love her!

Boy by Band of Outsiders Lookbook

I'm a huge fan of menswear inspired looks, so of course I love Boy by Band of Outsiders! Scott Sternberg designs classic looks, but with a great quirky edge. Though I saw the Fall 2009 collection a while ago, I just discovered the lookbook and it's fantastic. It's compiled of all Polaroids taken by the designer himself and features the beautiful Marisa Tomei. I really love the aesthetic of this lookbook, it has a retro feel with the grainy Polaroid shots and the backgrounds, but it's also modern and fresh. I think Marisa looks so great and I also think she makes the clothes look tres sexy and chic!
