DVF runway photos via elle FZP9856TQF6S
I am almost always wearing a hat. Beanies mostly, but also pillbox, sailor, porkpie, beret – seriously, whatever. So the first thing I noticed, and maybe the only thing to make a lasting impression, from Diane von Furstenberg’s Fall 2009 Nomad collection were the awesome pom pom hats. I assumed [...]

DIY: Alexander Wang Spring 2010 Sock Braces

Ah, Tom Binns! I love his designs so so much, but like… well, pretty much everything these days, I can’t afford them. So his tongue-in-cheek “Get Real” collection re-affirmed that we are in fact kindred spirits with a sense of humor about fashion.

Every season, something from a MMM’s collection steals my heart. And every season, I can’t afford it. Admittedly, most Margiela pieces are so well-crafted, you couldn’t DIY it if you tried. Luckily for me, this shirt practically screamed “Make me!!” so make it I did

When I first these shots of Courtney Love by Hedi Slimane I thought “Who made those shoes!?” Then I quickly realized Courtney had made them and so could I. And I did just that, using:
