Strong, Elegant and Sexy: Georgia May Jagger for Harper's Bazaar








Simple and elegant, infused with a little bit of sexy and a little bit of drama. Minimal, well chosen pieces let Georgia May rock the clothes so the clothes aren't rocking her. Mid-week inspiration from Harper's Bazaar November '10 issue. Photographed by Hedi Slimane, styled by Clare Richardson.

Rad Hourani's Unisex Collection #6



According to a post on NY Mag's 'The Cut' back in February, Rad Hourani's clothes are unisex because he believes that everyone is born unisex...hmm, not a wildly original concept, but still an interesting one. Above is his collection #6 with 22 looks styled from 6 garments. Check out the entire collection (modeled all on a female) here.

Want It: Boots with the Fur

Ok, I will admit that some of these boots are kind of crazy. I'm not sure that everyone needs a pair of Alexander Wang (really long) goat hair boots and Mr. Jacobs for Louis Vuitton confuses us slightly with a knee-high furry strap wrap around boot/sandal. But the Diego Dolcini suede and mink high-ankle booties are pretty luxe and if I were to own Christian Louboutin's buckle strapped Toundra fur boots, I would probably wear them with almost everything. So I definitely think it's worth having a look...

Accent with Neutrals: Julia Von Boehm


Julia Von Boehm shows us how to perfectly balance this black and white look with neutral accents, complimentary proportions and a little bit of texture. A looser fitting, extra long, black skinny pant paired with a high rounded-toe heel slims and elongates the bottom half while balancing out the structure of the classic white button down and white fur jacket (to add some texture and glam) on top. And the neutral knotted belt and long shoulder bag, are the perfect accents to tie it all together in a simple and chic way.

Anna Dello Russo: Not Afraid to Leopard Print

Or fringe...
Or rock her Emanuel Ungaro runway 'do (she just had to ditch the creepy little long haired lamb doll).

Carine Watch: Paris

Leopard print, lace and lace-ups all together? Carine says yes!
If that is a onesie, then I just love her even more...pair it with a leopard print coat (new staple), violet lace-up peep-toe and signature gold pendant and you are good to go...
Lacey cut-outs, tassel sleeve cuffs and a super high back slit = sexy for Cavalli's anniversary party.

Front row with daughter Julia. Love the white lace-up bootie with black top and skirt (notice more cut-outs).
Having a little chat with son's girlfriend, L'Uomo Vogue editor, freelance stylist and former Dolce & Gabbana model, Giovanna Battaglia. (And toting along a bag, which we don't see very often).
You can never go wrong with the big sunnies.

Carine Watch: Milan Fashion Week

She loves her leopard print coat, and so do I.

Love the all black with a nude heel, so chic.


Carine in her shiny reptile skin and Anna in her feathers, sandwiching Pucci creative director, Peter Dundas. Quite the sandwich I must say.

Telling a Story (A Fashion One)









From the streets of Milan's Fashion Week, Vogue.it photographer takes us beyond the posed street style pics and creates a mini fashion strip for each of his subjects. It's kind of like street style blog meets story board, where each fashion creature is painted in her natural habitat. I like it.
