NYFW #Alexanderwang

Ten years have passed since the eternal kid started showing his work on the runways, season after season his brand grew and was consolidated, then he started to take other risks like being the head designer for the french powerhouse Balenciaga and designing a collection for a major high street brand, H&M for those hiding from the world.

Now he's taking another risk, the risk of not being able to deal with his dismissal from Balenciaga, I always felt that this venture wasn't meant to be, it felt unnatural, the Balenciaga brand and Alexander Wang were two opposites that didn't attract each other, the exception to the rule.

Well, let's not pitty Wang because as you can see from his SS16 collection, the kid is talented.
He can always surprise you and entice you to his state of mind, I immediately want to bring back all those clothes I had from the late 90's early 00's, from the patchwork leather and denim jacket, the white tees, the hip-hop references, the style mix-match with lace slip dresses paired with sneakers and bomber jackets.

It's all gonna be OK kid.

Cookies suck

Cookies can be bad for your health, all types of cookies, the ones that have chocolate chips and the ones on the internet that make you feel like you're being stalked by websites. The web cookies are bad for your health because they don't let you forget the things that you browse on shops and that you don't buy. This time I'm being followed by these beauties, the GOLDEN GOOSE sneakers.
I'm always browsing these sneakers in the hopes of finding good discounts because they are not on the cheap side.

You can find them here.

What would you wear?

There is a fun game us girls like to play to kill time, what would you wear to...?  A work interview with Anna Wintour at Vogue, your wedding, the Oscars, a major fashion week and so on...

In honor of the New York Fashion Week I'll start with this question, if money and major connections with designers and brands were not an issue, what would you wear to attend the shows?

This is my look, show me yours!

NYFW #Givenchy

So NYFW is well underway and I'm trying to catch up with every show. I had a very slow weekend so I was able to take a peek at pretty much every show so far, includding the video from the most anticipated Givenchy show, this time the french house crossed the atlantic to showcase another emotional collection straight from Tisci's dramatic heart.

It was truly a show, in charge of the concept was the highly regarded Marina Abramovic. I wasn't there, obviously, but those who were felt involved by the athmosphere created wich honored the tragedy that struck the city and the world fourteen years ago.

Intentions aside, the clothes weren't overstaged by the complexity of the show, they stood up on their own. Black and white ruled the runway as well as the 90's silhouettes. Shift dresses, strapped tops a romantic touch of lace and tailored pant suits. The higlight of the show were the amazing feathered gowns and face jewerly. Riccardo Tisci's work is reaching new hights and engraving his vision in our minds and hearts, a sincerely touching show.

NYFW updates coming soon, meanwhile check out some of my favorite street style looks taken from Vogue.com.

A.S.S*

The time has come for the fashion community to break down our style era in two moments: the B.S.S (Before Stan Smith) and the A.S.S. (After Stan Smith). Right now we're in a transition period, the Stan Smith is still the sneaker you have to own, that you can wear with every look and in every ocasion but fashionistas are looking to the future. Everywhere in the world the  and are trying to gather some clues about the next product that will ressurect from the ashes and conquer the feet of the fashion world. 

Wanna have a guess with me?

*no pun intended

H&M Studio FW15

This Studio collection is a breath of fresh air in the fast fashion world. Great design, complex materials and a matching price. These are not your 9.99€ pieces of clothes but I think they are worth it. I'm obsessed with this bomber jacket and the flared twill green pants seem to have potential.
