Jeremy Scott for Adidas

I have always been a vintage Adidas fan. The new stuff is often questionable...even the stella stuff. i like the new stuff when it gets spacey and futuristic. which mr. scott has definitely done but i believe he has really tipped his hat to vintage adidas styles. i love the dress/tunic take on the track jacket and THOSE SUBTLE RUFFLES! the color block skirt reminds me of those channel color checks on TV, which are basically probably eliminated because of digital tv now. so funky! i want one..i will be on the hunt to acquire one-beacon's in a few month i pray....the whole collection is subtly 80s too i know and hiphop friendly but thats what makes it current, relevant and wearable in the mainstream. anyways kudos jeremy, job well done, i wish you would have pushed it a bit further but what you put out and the model wearing them are DELISH! bravo...this reminds me, i really need to take some funky fun pics of outfits i've thrown together with my three fav adidas pieces i own. a vintage navy/maroon track suit i bought from my old man neighbour when i was 12 (and it was way too big on me but only $15!!!), a fire engine red vintage long sleeve sweatshirt with a square neckline and pockets (GENIUS!) and my new (but now worn to oblivion) spacey beige with three stripe velcro straps and the most supportive arches EVER! well enough about my adidas ownage (but i promise pics of the aforementioned items soon and MORE OF MY OUTRAGEOUS outfits, this summer's goals is to document my wardrobe while im still young and hip...HAH)

feathered friends

from my older prada browsing. i so love the details photos that style.com posts. they are like pieces of art in their own right.
this waist-line is divine, one shoulder and those colours, layers, textures-KNITS for spring!...and my weakness, peacock feathers. i suggest you buy one at the dollar store or craft store and add it to an outfit. to your hair, in your belt...make the feather part of you showy aviary-self this spring.

I am an ICON

so I had a LV Sprouse photo shoot with some friends on a ski trip in the Berkshires. and well this is the photoshopped version on my best shot for a friend's current mix cd of covers. i kinda love it. thought you might to.

buffalo pumps

so about a month ago...i went on a spending spree. most fashion girls dream, thus mine, but not so agreeable to my credit card debt, but agreeable to my credit card company. anyways enough about my lack of shopping self control and huge credit card bill due next week. ON TO THE BUYS....(this will be the first of a couple shopping posts to catalogue my new children)
so i splurge at buffalo exchange (the new-ish one in manhattan on east 11th (between 1st and 2nd)). they actually have great designer buys for STEALS-better than the williamsburg which my roommate&i frequent, the only problem with that is they aren't buying for high prices that your resale is worth. so with a small credit in hand, i mostly forked over NEW MONEY. but i got these babies......

Fall RTW 06 Donna Karan Collection Blood red leather/suede stacks pumps with gold mirror inlayed heel DIVINE! only $60
and

same DKCollection pony Leopard spectators with side cutouts and that same FABULOUS gold mirror heel (these are higher than the red ones) these were over $100, i have mentally blocked how much they exactly were and i'd like to leave it that way HAH

i am including some of the runaway look pics with the shoes...they are kinda inspiring.

i love that i am still mulling over fall and its so hot in ny, thus basically spring/summer already.

i think the leopard spectators will definitely come out in the spring with skinny jeans and tank or a cute little beige dress (like the runway look minus the tights...)

i already wore the red pumps with a divine black/white vintage number (with some sheerness at the top too ironically) to a family black tie wedding, and let me tell you. RED PUMPS make a night and any outfit MORE FUN! i'm just saying...

off the shoulder red hoodstooth, GENUIS! i need a little summer version to wear with the red minnie mousers soooooooon

MJ moment

i have been hording style inspiration photos on my desktop again...
so i will be needing to post more often (Especially music, i have tons of goodies up my sleeves or um...just in my iPod and multitudes of summer concerts coming up yipppe- I LOVE THE SUMMERS IN NYC!)

i was religiously following ny fashion a few months ago...and these were some standouts from Marc Jacobs show. i think he's done it again, reinvented himself and his label. everyone is up in arms over the ethnic amazingness he's doing at LV (which i would like to comment on later, as i was just in INDIA and poured over the indian fashion mags-so different, yet quite british...and they LOVE mj's new LV stuff) but these are so chic, glamourous, fashion forward, and yet still translatable to normal fashion girls...and wearable. the angles, the shapes that manipulate the body, the juxtaposition of textures and those BOLD AMAZING colours, keeping with the older volume trends but redefining them for NOW.

secretary chic, trends we can draw from and make our own, shoulder pads (how i love you), womanly curves, long GLOVESSSS

these pants are so MAJOR, the hair is brills-i wonder if i can make my wig do that(?!), the tops is also brills-evening wear for the day for work, for walking down the street-it easily goes from day to night-i love the avant garde shape and the rich saturated coloursssssss
