    By SP on June 23, 2010
    WWD reports that Givenchy will no longer take part in couture runway shows. The brand is not ending its couture line. Givenchy will show its couture line to clients and editors privately, by appointment, beginning in July. I don’t blame them. Those shows are costly!!!

    By SP on June 22, 2010
    I think this is a tad bit too far. Christian Dior is reportedly releasing logoed contact lenses. The contact lenses feature gold edging and the CD monogram on the corner. Are people that crazy about monogrammed pieces/designer labels, that they’d rock it on their contacts? Wonders. Enjoy.. thank u

  • The Bad-Ass Jessica Alba

    By SP on June 21, 2010
    Wow, couldn’t believe these pics for a moment there. Latest Gen Lux pre-fall cover story featuring Jessica Alba. The premise of the story is reportedly of Jessica teaching kids (or dolls) how to be a little more bad-ass and each picture has a corresponding title.

    By SP on June 18, 2010
    Was never a fan of Tory Burch, but ehm, with this collection, I’m bowing, turned on and a convert. Wow, glad she stepped out of the 60s, sophisticated era and turned it up several notches with the ethnic, boho, 70s, but more current style. Yes, this definitely blows my mind. Enjoy..

The liberty of wearing the sock high or low totally rocks! “Liking” it is definitely not the consensus in the fashion/style blogging world. In fact, most have blogged about how ridiculous it is. But Style [...]
