CELINE SS13

I always mean to do recaps of fashion week but I get caught up with work (read: caught up with my couch after work) and then NY becomes London and Milan becomes Paris and then it's old news and I just want Pringles and a nap. But I can always make time for my #1 gal - Phoebe Philo aka CÉLINE in your face. Let's begin shall we...

For once it wasn't her structured manly vibes, but the swishiness of the dresses that caught my eye. Give me a delicate light swishy dress and I will show you a cold hunched shoulder. But give me a heavy linen swishy dress and I will show you a sashay shante like you've never seen. And those shoes - a little bit Viv a little bit Comme.

The L and R are visually interesting to look at. Oddly enough I like the baby blue and pink combo, but the fur under feet would be an assault on my OCD. The middle pair I would wear. And you would judge me. And I wouldn't care.

The mighty Trio cashin in on the "paper bag" trend too.

And the look I could wear the least but got the loudest gasp.

What? I could wear a shirt under it.

 Those moments when you're torn between hating that something is so exclusive you can't get it easily and loving that lots of other people can't get it that easily either. But damn you until you're mine!

A PLACE TO LAY MY HEAD

Mihara Yasuhiro's home. The mini bowl on the ground floor and that lip sofa. My dream home.

FANNY AND JESSY

Excited about this recent discovery - Fanny and Jessy - a design duo from the UK. Their new fall lookbook just took my pining for all things boxy and misshapen to the next level. Add perforated leather and textured prints into the mix and my winter is spoken for.

PERSONAL ACCEPTANCE

via OC

With the help of some eye-opening observations from friends, I've come to accept that my 2013 style trajectory is headed for Hoboville, USA. Case in point - these pants from Kaal E Suktae. While for some (read: majority?) these may be terribly offensive and downright ugly, they hit the deepest chords of love in my patchwork heart of hearts. So now you know where I'm headed. Be forewarned.

HELMUT LANG

I recently participated in the Guest Blogger Series for Helmut Lang, along with Susie Bubble, Street Peeper, Chic Muse, Columbine Smille and a few others. We styled our favorite pieces from their Fall collection and each week a new blogger is featured. Mine just went live this morning. You can read my interview here and shop the looks here :)

AT THE POST OFFICE

ASOS jumpsuit // Givenchy Necklace // CÉLINE Trio clutch

I actually did a really poor job of documenting my outfits during fashion week. Probably because it was a hectic mess and I was more focused on not sweating than actually looking fashionable. I'll try to post some more looks if I can scrounge some up. This is what I wore to the Theyskens Theory show. The top image is from W Mag and the bottom from The Cut. It's a very strange thing being street style snapped.

When the photographers asked for outfit details, they all gasped when I said my jumpsuit was from ASOS. Or maybe they were just plain shocked I was wearing a wool tweed jumpsuit in 80 degree weather. (There were clouds in the morning, ok?) Either way, you can get it here.
