Just a quick post here. Presenting Lyn Devon S/S 09. We simply adore this and reminds us so much of the a blend of YSL with Lacoste. We love the simplicity of this collection. It will surely be very wearable and easy to mix things up. The yellow is just superb. Trying to find more pictures to post it up here. Fingers crossed.

It was only 2 days ago when we gave a preview of Prada’s Pre-Fall 2009. And now it seems that our hypothesis has been spot-on – it has been inspired by label mate Miu Miu. The Miu Miu Pre-Fall 2009 collection signals a school-girl approach with a nod to uniforms, working the male-female element via wool flannels and silk crepes bonded together. Many looks featured pristine cotton blouses, at times sleeveless, and with beribboned necklines or Peter Pan collars. And from the pictures here, it seems that they share the same lux cashmere, wools and furs with Prada.

Thats a bad-ass ribbon!

Seems like the scarf is making a huge comeback. At the recent men’s fashion runway show, almost all labels have some looks that features think and dreamy looking “Palestine” scarf. Compliments the metro-sexual look (we are Alpha-male fans by the way). So what about the ladies? Thank goodness we came across Organic Giraffe that makes scarf that is this big and looks just as good when twisted around your neck. It’s all in the fabric and it is way cool.

A quick update and preview of the upcoming Fall 2009 collection by Prada. It will appear that Prada is trying to trend set with emphasis on creating “volumes”. With the use of luxe fabrics, a mostly black and gray collection with shots of deep wine that featured outerwear and day looks in sumptuous cashmere, wools and furs, as well as more formal options like embellished silk satin dresses. It does really look Prada-ish, but it’s very glamorous and we love it. Expect great things from Prada this year.



This is so desirable!

Constance McCardle designs pieces with “A beautiful blend of antique textiles, vintage embroidery, hand painted fabrics and laces combined with new couture fabrics“. Check out her collections from the webstore. Well, they do look gorgeous but somehow it gave us some inspiration to just DIY some of our “vintage” clothes that have been shoved in a cupboard never to be seen. Time to get the dinosaurs out of your closet.
Very sexy indeed. Feels like 70s all over again

We are back from a much needed retreat. Wanted to catch a good holiday back in December 2008 but the party invites kept coming. So a sincere apologies for being away for 2 weeks or so. To start it off again, time for some men’s fashion. Just at the turn of the year, GQ short listed 6 of the top american Menswear Designers. We must say that the choices were excellent and we were introduced to some names that we have never know. Surely we have to read more men’s fashion magazine. The lukcy 6 were
- Andre (Benjamin) 3000 for Benjamin Bixby
- Alex Carleton for Rogues Gallery
- Robert Geller for Robert Geller
- David Mullen for Save Khaki
- Sam Shipley and Jeff Halmos for Shipley & Halmos
- Yigal Azrouel for Yigal Azrouel
Here are some pic of their designs. Gain some inspiration for your boyfriend/husband next birthday gifts.
