Nice professional title, I thought.
But in all seriousness, Milan Fashion Week is upon us – the mother lode of fashion – and I’m already a day or two behind. So far we’ve had 10 shows… so I won’t do 10 different posts (sorry, I just don’t have that much time).
anyway, I’ll start with some street [...]

A few looks from each.
Paul Smith
“No theme; just a few classic English looks.”
Skye Stracke. Love the coat and the socks and the gloves.
It seemed to me that the London designers, in general, were more prone to play around with colours than at NYFW…
Love how this olive drab ensemble is punctuated by the little bit of [...]

NOTE: due to the huge amounts of stuff to be covered, I’ll be cutting back [aka, making them not so horrendously long] on my posts. A girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do to keep up with LFW.

He said he was trying to get back to what had originally got him interested in [...]

While she intended her collection to be influenced by birds of many feathers, it came off as a serious 80’s vibe, the vibe of a crazily independent woman. Black & grey were dominant, splashed with bits of bright rooster red here and there.

From JAK&JIL, a woman roughs it out with a broken N. Kirkwood heel. That’s dedication.

Ah, LFW truly is in full swing now! The 80’s look has carried over across the pond, along with the monochrome and neutral looks. Let’s have a look-see, shall we?
Starting with Aquascutum.
Umm… yellow plaid? Ok…
Almost a Burberry print. Fur detaily on the shoulder. (Coat? Scarf? Live animal? Who knows)
Black, white & grey. Chic? I think [...]

While I must admit I didn’t watch the Oscars/Academy Awards per se – and don’t know who won (except Slumdog Millionaire, snatching 8 Oscars; I know this from listening to NPR every morning on the way to school) – I’ve done my duty and checked out all the looks. A few were right on, a [...]

Ok, I”d be kidding myself if I told you I’d do a complete post on this, so I won’t lie. Here are a few of my fave looks, though…
Grey fur with gold embellishments and a cloche hat (and look at the shoe. AD S?S 09.)
Small puffs of black fur trim. Je l’adore! (I must say, [...]
