Little Black Jacket exhibition
Almost six decades have passed since the creation of the black tweed jacket by Coco Chanel, and what could be better than a book of photographs curated by Karl Lagergeld and Carine Roitfeld? Well, the Little Black Jacket exhibition at Saatchi Gallery, London that came all the way from Hong Kong. 113 influential people, friends of the House […]
Street-style’s greatest: STREETFSN by Nam
Since the great Bill Cunningham many photographers have focused on street style. This has changed both the fashion and style we expect to see as well as the photography itself; who doesn’t enjoy to look at people dressed up for Fashion Week and generally being caught in the lenses of a photographer that values good […]
Lacoste regeneration
The first collection for Lacoste under Felipe Oliveira Baptista didn’t fail to amaze. Shown in NY on September, the luxury sports brand is re-born cooler while retaining its old school vibe. What he wanted to show in this collection was “freedom, well-being, joy, innovation, clean lines, graphic use of colour, and, of course, polos,” said […]
Versace x H&M wishlist
We are almost a week away from the release of the Versace for H&M line and although I don’t usually like designers’ collaborations with high street stores, this one looks quite promising. From the 102 pieces of the collection I would love to own 8 of them (that would cost me $1194.85!!). These are… Silk […]

word of the day: minaudière
1935 (Ph. flickr) — a small, metal bag with a small chain (or without) that can barely hold a lipstick and a credit card. I guess it’s a good thing they didn’t have mobile phones back then, now you would just have to keep it in a pocket or even leave it at home ?! Invented by […]

Starring Crystal Renn, Rose Cordero, Eliza Crummings and others. This “Big Show” includes sections like FEEL ME: ADORE ME: (Rose Cordero as Josephine Baker) TRACK ME: […]
“model” and “diversity” match?
Apparently they do. Models of Diversity (MoD), tries to maintain a diversity in models’ shape, colour, height and even abilities; as MoD have used disabled people as models. They recently had a fashion show in Oxford, and heir mission? Size 0. But they are not fighting for size 0, but against it — as a […]
On a last note.
Hot Becks and Pretty (and very pregnant) Posh were definitely the best-dressed couple at the Royal Wedding (after Will and Kate of course). With a navy blue dress from her own collection, a very elegant Philip Treacy hat and 6” heel ‘Daffodile’ Louboutins Victoria was simply beautiful. And David with a Ralph Lauren Purple morning […]
Dress.
Well I wanted to write this post last night but was just too tired. The thing is this post wasn’t meant to be for Kate Catherine Middleton’s dress, but oh well let’s start with that. Everyone knows by now, but the dress was made by Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen and I just want to […]
