Proenza Schouler Ready to Wear – Spring 2010
2009-09-22 18:30:00 On first glance I didn’t think much of Proenza Schouler. It didn’t look that special and I glossed over it. It was only after I saw a shot of the shoes that I decided to investigate a bit more. I’m a fan now. I don’t know how I could have rejected feathers and neon like that before. I’ve learned my lesson. images: nymag.com Related posts Proenza Schouler Ready to Wear – Spring 2009 Accessories (0) Proenza Schouler Ready to Wear – Resort 2009 (0) Proenza Schouler Ready to Wear – Fall 2008 – 2009 (0) i want: Proenza Schouler Spring 2009 Shoes (0) Fashion Show Videos Spring 2009 (0)
India Diaries: Bracelet Overload
2009-09-22 17:15:00 When I was in India , I went crazy and bought at ton of cheap bracelets from the Dilli Haat market. I basically have sleeves of bracelets in different colours. Here are some of my finds that I’ve been posting on twitter. I’m wearing two sets here. The set that looks blue is actually purple. My friend Sonja got a good picture to some of my bracelets on the weekend. India Bangles: photo taken by Sonja A I bought a lot of blingy bracelets in India because they were bright and fun. I came home with sets of bracelets but I still wish I bought more. Related posts No related posts. More About: Bracelet , Diaries

FASHION Magazine’s Men’s Fall Style Special Event
2009-09-21 19:00:00 FASHION Magazine's Men's Fall Style Special Event I attended the FASHION Magazine’s Men’s Fall Style Special Event last week. I brought The Grumpy Owl with me since he sometimes concerns himself with fashionable things. The party was to celebrate the launch of the FASHION Magazine’s Men’s Fall Style Special supplement. It’s a magazine created by the Fashion Magazine team dedicated to men’s fashion. There were cigars and a small cigar lounge setup outside. The Grumpy Owl bought a nice cigar and enjoyed it on the patio. There were canapes and drinks at the party but we were also treated to a Hugo Boss Fall 2009 fashion show. The Men’s Fashion Fall 2009 supplement is pretty good. I love the product offering and the way they are displayed. There is also a long article demystifying men’s grooming by Andrew Sardone. I LOVE the men’s editorial though. Here are two images to get your hungry to find it. FASHION Magazine'...

2009-09-20 00:00:00 del.icio.us fashion links for September 18, 2009: Luxury Retailers Rush To Adapt: Chic Goes Cheap | The Knowledge of Luxury Milton Pedraza, CEO of the Luxury Institute expects “15% to 20% of brands in luxury categories, particularly the marginal brands, will go under.” Luxury After Lehman Brothers Luxury, since the collapse of Lehman Brothers , hasn’t looked pretty. In fact, the fall of the sector has been unprecedented. Not once during the major downturns of the past three generations — not in 1974, 1989, 1992 or 2001 — have wealthy consumers responded to an economic downturn by so radically smothering their spending habits. But today, the psyche of these consumers has undeniably changed. Reports – Silver: Bridge between what is fashion and what is fine Earlier this year, nearly two-thirds of respondents to a Luxury Institute survey, agreed that pricing of exclusive brands is too high for the value they deliver.
