Hope Sandoval - Dream pop / Sartorial dream


Of Mazzy Star fame, she's very talented, stylish and a beaut to boot. The nineties photography is lovely and the girl just can't seem to take a bad photo. Her wardrobe choices are pretty relevant all over again, this coming season.

Widowspeak for Vogue.com

In their countdown of new love songs in prep for Valentine's Day (yick), vogue.com had Widowspeak record a special rendition of their song, "Thick as Thieves". Love the collab.


Alexander Wang A/W 2013-14 is a bit of a knock-out...


...seriously though.

The silhouettes are so modern and where cool dressing is at - a combination of body skimming and steamlined bulk - seems like an oxymoron, I know, but Wang's managed it. I love the tailored pants and coats, the skirts + bulky jumper combo, the quirky use of fur, the booties, the half-shoe, the restrained palette and the use of leather. There's a lot to love here. And it's not just because he happens to be one of my favourite designers (who can do almost no wrong), either. Sure, there are some pieces I would not wear personally but it's a cohesive and cuddly, somewhat practical collection with a clear vision. 

PS That's not to say I'd be adverse to someone giving me anything from the collection. HINT HINT.







Did I mention how much I love him?

Super-brights

I'm not someone who's crazy on colour but when the library is kicking your ass you just feel like shoving all of the below at the rainy, moody sky and screaming "SUCK IT! Spring/Summer is on its way."
