The Lovely Lou Doillon.
I KNEW this girl had it. I’ve been posting on Lou Doillon since I began this blog nearly two years ago. From her lovely picture with her sister Charlotte Gainsbourg in Vogue, to her video collaborations with fashion designer Vanessa Bruno, you know this woman is on the rise to stardom. And, with a mother like Jane Birkin, how could she go anywhere but to the top? And, now - the best...

Summer Inspiration - Garance Doré
I always am inspired by the blog of Garance Doré. I was lucky enough to stumble upon it nearly two years ago - long before she was canoodling with the Sartorialist. I think these two looks, though very different, are perfect for summer. Maybe not the heat, but if I were to aspire to a certain style aesthetic at this particular moment in time, both of these looks fill my wishes in some way. ...

It appears so- and on top of that she called it “the most glamorous hotel in the world.” The makeover of the Piano Suite is von Furstenberg’s first design collaboration outside of her stores and… turned out quite brilliantly.

oops. i did it again.
Moments ago, when I saw that it had been two weeks since my last post I physically cringed. Where did those two weeks of my life just go? I remember the night I fought my scanner to post the last piece as if it was just… well, at LEAST last week. It’s funny how the summer season- no matter how sticky - seems to just fly by.
