Balmain ...ohhh the pain...


Balmain is such an exquisite designer. The details on the dresses are outrageous. This is serious art. And have you seen the shoes??!! I am not a shoe or fashion queen, and I don't pretend to be. But I do know superb when I see it. The above are a combination of the Fall 2008 and Spring 2008 collections.


These fall into the fucking rad pants outfits. The styling is just so perfect... It's like a better 90s. I love the fashion of the 90s! It's such a unique combination of styles.... Even though the style makes me laugh and I could never pull off an outfit with the torn jeans and oversized leather jackets... I just can't get enough of the androgyny of it all. It's definitely making a comeback right now with the "hipsters" and then we also see it in styyylish models such as Agyness Deyn and all the Dellal's.

Julien Macdonald Fall 2009


Julien Macdonald's Fall 2009 collection probably sums up the recent trend toward punk/biker hot chick, which my friend and I are definitely loving.




It makes me think of Marla Singer, played by Helena Carter in Fight Club. That edgy hard core look with fur is soooo the shit. I also love crazy dirty hair so a Julien Macdonald with some Marla would be an ultimate look. Or perhaps a Balmain dress with some Marla.
