Spring Pickin'

I know I KNOW, it seems like the moment the fall runways are presented, the spring ones seem so irrelevant (even if we are still in April!), but in order to keep the spirit of good weather alive and well, I'm going to mention just a fewwww of my loves for spring. Don't get too excited now...


Lanvin: OK. So I can't even pick a favorite from Lanvin for Spring, because each look was too gorgeous and equally desireable. I loved all the one shouldered, puffed sleeve shirts tucked into little skirts and the interesting way everything was tailored. Alber Elbaz kept everything so simple, but completely lovely. Gah, I love that man. See the video of the Lanvin show here.

Balmain: It was Fall08 that really introduced me to Balmain - before that is was just a name with a fuzzy association with hippiness and perhaps a replacement Cavalli. Now I can't get enough of Christophe Decarnin's creations. Although I've never been a fan of the "rock chick" look, he just does it so well! Do you see the shoes? What I wouldn't give for a pair of those kick-ass shoes... And in case you were wondering, that lovelyyy girl in the second Balmain pic is Natasha Poly - much love. See a video of the Balmain looks here.

Dearest You

Well hey hey hey. In all my internet life I have never once blogged, about anything. I'm suddenly surprised it took me this long to figure out that this might just make sense. It isn't that my life is interesting (eat & sleep: actions that dominate my life), which is why I'm going to keep this blog as impersonal as possible. Rather, I'm more interested in cateloging things I find astetically pleasing to me.
I wasn't always someone who cared about fashion or looks or anything related. In fact, I'm pretty sure I was the only tomboy in class and was teased for shopping only at the boys department at Old Navy. Hardly the beginnings of a fashionista (a word I actually hate, so lets forget I said that). But, alas, I did eventually comform to the wants of my peers and shed my boyish exterior for more girly clothes. That isn't to say this transformation materialized over night - I'd embarass myself if I said I was fashionable. Just fashion conscious. Which is why I want to keep track of my loves and the whatnot for a while, since I think you can see how a person changes just by looking at how their tastes change (um hi - would I ever wear a juicy hoody ever again?).
So, experimental as it is, this will be my fashion blog. Not only will I be documenting the runway looks that I adore, but the photography and models that play such an important role in shaping fashion and for whom/which I have equal love for.
