Beautiful Minds (Part Deux)

I should be looking online for decent hotels to stay in for next week's trip to Jakarta and Bali. Instead, I go on the web to gawk at them brains behind some of my fave collections for Spring-Summer 2010.

Christophe Decarnin

Stella McCartney

Gareth Pugh

Phoebe Philo

Yes, it's so smooth when they look as cool as their masterpieces.

P.S. - I can sleep on the streets of Indonesia. But not really. ;D

Eye Candy for the (Studded, Strappy and Most Things Balmain) Style Hungry

Metal and licorice. Strap-happy. Studded beauties.
Devour, devour. No talk while chewing.

SPRINGWEAR 2009: TOP MOBS

What an awesome time to start blogging. Yes, just when the geniuses are out with their Spring RTW for 2009.


BALMAIN





Ooh, glorious, glorious, gorgeous collection to die for from Balmain. I'm loving the acid washed pants, them shoes (and I was never crazy for studs until these were born), jackets (mod and retro all at the same time) and the LBDs on these (gawd!).


RICK OWENS






And much like the opposite of Balmain's flamboyant rocking and rolling, Rick Owens is belching out a tune straight out of Daria's vocal choreography. I'm simply amazed at how nicely understated and intelligent (as usual) the mood of this collection is -- my most favorite.
