Fall/Winter '08

My ever so eventful life has prevented me from posting in what feels like decades... but I'm ever so happy to be back in action.
So let's discuss Fall/Winter '08...

MBMJ










I'm amazed with the new MBMJ campaign. When I first laid eyes on it I smiled and thought out loud "Marc's done it again". It's fresh. It's comedic. It's a man in womans apparel... and an A+++ in my books. Cole Mohr has never looked prettier... the line itself isn't too shabby.

Hermès







Hermès f/w '08 line has captured my heart. Casual and simple warm tones and neutrals with intricate yet delicate prints make for a very pretty fall.

Balenciaga







Balenciaga's F/W '08 line has my vote. Bold and futuristic pieces with lots of black, white, and silver seem to scream FEMME FATALE!!!

Chloé







OH NO Chloé!!! I am not impressed with this line... especially with regards to the footwear and handbags which I find to be atrocious. With the exception of a few pieces of clothing this line (in my opinion) is a complete and utter failure.

Burberry Prorsum







I feel as though Burberry Prorsum's F/W collection defines the season. It's so crisp and wonderful and perfect in every way. I love it.

Luella







All I have to say to Luella Bartley is... just because Halloween happens to be in fall doesn't mean that you should base your whole line on it. It's one day... and this line is grotesque compared to your Spring/Summer one.

Miu Miu







Miuccia... SNAP OUT OF IT! Miu Miu is not athletic wear... I want to cry. This line is as bad as the trip she must have had while creating it. Oh and the shoes are horrid for example...



But the shoes of Miuccia's Prada line are no better... best described as an acid tripping fairy, have a look:



YUCKY.

BCBG Max Azria











Last, but certainly not least, for the good of fall/winter '08 is BCBG Max Azria. This line is clean-cut, neutral, and very chic. I am very proud to work for such a fabulous company, and even more grateful for the lovely discount that accompanies the job. I'm certainly investing in some of these items!!!

I hope you enjoyed my horribly lengthy post, I felt as if I owed you it seeing as I have been rather neglectful.

Tell me what you think...

Minty Fresh

Mintshop.com is truly the mother of all online shopping. When I stumbled upon the page, my jaw dropped. Children, it's time to set your wardrobes on fire.

Here are some of my favored items:

pretty in pinko

when I was first introduced to the brand in the waiting room of my hotel in Italy, I thought it to be a cute rip off of Victoria's Secret's Pink line. Add an o... and its a perfect imitation. But I was so incredibly wrong, as I learned in Florence that the bags cost was most definitely not anywhere close to living up to imitation standards. I wanted one soooo bad, and I regret not spending the hundred euro to make it mine.


AD CAMPAIGN - FALL/WINTER 07




soooo getting this bag <3

Bundle Up

The only thing I like about cold weather is the fact that we can wear coats. I say wear these:

DKNY


BURBERRY


JEAN PAUL GAULTIER

Men's Needs - The Cribs

It's a super fun song.

LIU * JO

While in the remarkable city of Florence,I fell in love.
Liu Jo is an amazing italian label, that's amazingly pricey, but worth every euro.
All I could afford was a measly metallic silver bracelet bearing the company's name in rhinestones, which has actually become a staple in my daily accessorization.

Check out this killer campaign and you too will fall head over heels for this brand.
And yes boys, there's a Liu Jo for men (as well as babies, homes, and the luxurious)

BUILD ME UP BUTTERCUP

Yellow just makes everything happy.


This Alice + Olivia tube dress makes for eye catching entrances. Find it at shopbop.com


Say yes to American Apparel's fluorescent yellow tube dress!

LOVE this Miu Miu baby doll!!!

Suddenly, I'm craving bananas.
