My assumption? She's his thought dead mother. It's a gut feeling.
Ooh lala... Nate & Serena back on the wagon again?!
Jenny Humphrey is looking more and more sophisticatedly chic episode by episode. The Vanderwoodsen affect has been good to her.
where are youuuuuuuuu :(
Beyonce's Curllls
I love her curls here, rather than the spirals she's usually seen with when her hair's not straight. And I love her Balmain. A lot.

Moschino Cheap & Chic Fall 2010 RTW
Skimming through the collection made me want to jump out of this chair and start strutting my stuff too. The show looked so fun! I imagine it was more entertaining and refreshing to see a show full of character and personality (the models actually smiled and maybe giggled here and there). After the 11th look or so, it appeared they were doing a roll-call by walking down what seemed to be a red carpet for socialites, musicians, celebutantes, and everyone else in between... including the help. The Moschino girl is a jetsetter. She's going places and she can't be stopped (I want to be that gurrrllll). I don't know anyone who dresses up to fly anymore, but I definitely wouldn't mind making airwaves in cargo pants (it's making a huge comeback for Fall, but be sure to wear them the 2010 way with heels), or a leopard print dress (so not me but I'm liking it), or even high-waisted pants.. all with those military inspired boots (I imagine the heel's stacked) that I'm so, so, SO LOVING RIGHT NOW. Now.. I want to see the world, the fierce and fabulous way... the only way.
Just Cavalli Fall 2010 RTW
Saw it first at Hilfiger in New York City, and now Cavalli brought it to Milan. Mini kilts with paillettes, and this time with more color and flair. I'm not too fond of the leopard prints, especially on the leggings (it's just not for me), but these skirts are going to be my favorite for sure. There's something sexy and flirty about the pleated kilts, and Cavalli put an edge to this Irish-originated skirt with lots of layering and complex textures. The ones I picked out are the more tame choices of the bunch, but all in all I love that it's coming back. There are so many ways to wear it, but I would go the classic route: silk fishnets (nay stripper kind) or sheer nylons (as seen all over the runways for Fall), with Dolce Vita Melrose Buckle & Zip Booties, and a sheer silk blouse with a mohair bolero. mmmmm What a dream...
I might go Dutch..
Clogs are an interesting set of shoes. Made out of wood, covered with leather (sometimes knitted wool), and you slip them on... then off... then on... then off.... Reminds me of the shoes my mother wears on her off days. Maybe that's why I've been so put-off about the idea of clogs coming back in style. I'm seeing them everywhere: on the street, in editorials, on the runways... I can't say all are a go, but this one caught my attention and I might give it a try... MAYBE.
Nathan Jenden Fall 2010 RTW
Eccentric in all the right places, Nathan Jenden puts the 2011 hip Los Angeles girl in the middle of Paris and gives her a twirl around town then throws her into New York City for refinement. I can't do prints. Period. I just can't do it. But the black and white printed dress (left) is chic in its own way. The flamingo pink shredded tulle dress and the black feathered number are my favorites in the entire collection. Perhaps they're not the most eccentric, but I love what Jenden did to the tops. Beautiful work.
Burberry Prorsum Fall 2010 RTW
I look forward to Burberry Prorsum especially for the coats. But there was one thing wrong with the collection: Not one can go wrong! I never liked shearling collared coats, but man Christopher Bailey made it look utterly desirable. I usually opt for black but it seems that navy is more favorable this time around. Compared to other Fall collections' whimsical pastel palettes, BP remains true to its roots: dark, covered, and secure. Not to mention those thigh-high boots that seem to make another round. The boots in the last look are my favorite. I think my feet will remain to stay warm enough in those shearling-lined boots... mmmmmmm sweetness.
Basso & Brooke Fall 2010 RTW
Thought Basso & Brooke was a bit much with all the colors and patterns. This look, however, is ideally my fave. The colorful print dress (I think that's a cowl neck... could be a matching scarf..) underneath the subdued coat looks picture perfect. I really want that coat... I wonder if they ship oversees?
Jaeger London Fall 2010 RTW
I'm not very familiar with London Fashion Week except for the universally known names (Burberry, McQueen, Westwood just to name a few). Reviewing LFW thoroughly for the first time has been half intriguing and half indifferent. It is definitely set apart from NYFW that I would generalize the aesthetic practical Anglo-centric. Maybe I'm a being a little redundant, but so what? It's about Britain's fashion and it makes perfect sense; old English meets new English (however the usual British style has never really made any sense to me, with all its crew sweaters paired with frumpy shirts and odd-length skirts... And I wish the women would brush their hair to look polished above the unkempt wardrobe. I know I'm being harsh, but sometimes I just cringggggge.. Modern Britain on the other hand is a different story.) At Jaeger London, I didn't pay attention to anything else except for the coats. London is known to have such dreary weather so it would only make sense that Britain designers create the most practical coats (look for Burberry Prorsum tomorrow...). These coats are female-friendly cool. I love it.
