The little piece that happened at a bar in Paris...

Music inspires Art, Art inspires music...Fashion is Art to me and this little gem really inspired me on many level.

Festival International de Mode et de Photographie in Hyères


The International competition for the new fashion and photography talents is happening in the South of France! From the look of a few shots on Diane's blog I see some really exciting new designs that is absolutely innovative and refreshing - so far I am liking Peter Bertsch "Bionic" collection from Belgium (first 2 images on the bottom) and of course that "McQueen of kitwear" Sandra Backlund "Ink Blot Test" Sweden (last 3 images on the bottom - I have already blogged her twice, Knit gone wild and When art is fashion).

I am looking forward to see more new shots, and if I can find my way to a good source for the event I will definitely post it here!

Shoe-bangs!

This season's Aldo collection is pretty impressive. They just got the right splash of quirkiness to the design while still keeping the practicality (easy to match with simple outfits and still stands out), I already own the two black heels and I am currently rocking that peep toes with chunky glass heels at work!

Edit: I swapped the green Avariella to this blue Avariella which is the one I bought! It is slowing and surely coming to my home!!

The New York Bubble - Katy Rodriguez

Last week I saw a whole rack of super super bubbly dresses in Resurrection in Soho. My first thought was - its a bit costumy... however, the calculated twist of the fabric made this bubble dress look very artsy and extraordinary. At that time I didn't quite know the socialites/celebs new fav designer Katy Rodriguez.

Last night I reread my W mag and quickly spotted that "Bubbly" dress on socialite/model Lydia Hearst. I must say that dress look quite stunning against her porcelain skin tone. Another one is on Stylish Rachel Zoe. I can't say I like her style but that dress she is wearing looks very cute too, that would be a great color for tanned skin tone.

Edit: I just found out (after further research on Katy) that she is the owner of vintage cult fav store Resurrection - this gem to me is like a vintage museum because they only sell really good quality suits and gowns like YSL, Jean Paul Gautier, Pucci, Alaia...etc.
