I want to be in love again,
And I want it to be beautiful, she said.
The type of love that looks as good on the outside
As it is on the inside, she said.
This love would be the handholding, knee rubbing
Standing on my tippy-toes trying to reach his lips kind.
The matted-hair, drinking bottled beer in bed kind.
The young, in-love, late-nights, ripped-tights
In the moment kind.
She said.

Chloe Sevigny is totally charming in this three-part web series from Opening Ceremony. We get to peak inside her New York apartment, but more importantly, we get an intimate look inside her incredible closet where she pulls out her most memorable pieces for us to see.
Chloe’s a hoarder – she keeps EVERYTHING, but it’s somehow endearing instead of TLC-Hoarders-Terrifying, because everything she’s collected involves a famous person, designer dress or an awards ceremony. Jeez. If only all hoarders could be so lucky.

Love, love, love this! I’d wear this whole look, minus the haircut.

Meesh made me watch Rihanna’s video for We Found Love. I don’t love Rihanna or how she ripped off David LaChapelle in her music video for S&M, but that being said, this video is pretty awesome. Loving the multi-colored burning cigarette and the wall projections. Plus, It takes just the right amount of inspiration from Requiem for a Dream to still be unique.

On your nose that is. I don’t think I could ever do it, but Aleksandra McCormack makes it look quite cute!

“The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.”

Iain McKell is a social and documentary photographer. He spent ten years documenting ‘The New Gyspies”, a modern-day nomadic clan living in the English countryside. Fed up with capitalism and environmental destruction, these “Post-Punk Anti-Thatcher protesters” banned together in 1986 to form a eclectic society based on the values of freedom and nature.
The colors in these photos drive me wild. Check out his website here and be sure to check out his series of photographs labeled “Journey with Kate” (yes it’s THE Kate Moss).

The lovely Kate Moss walked in the Louis Vuitton Spring 2012 RTW show in a beautiful white, lace dress. I was also obsessed with the colored lace frocks -I’ve learned that I am all over anything that comes in a variety of pastels and resembles cotton candy.

Do you ever view an image and feel nostalgic for a moment captured in time that you were never a part of? When I look at Lina Scheynius’s photographs, I can’t help but wish I was strewn, salt stained and sleepy-eyed, atop a black rock or curled up like a cat in a solitary patch of sunlight. I want to fold in between the tangled sheets and press my hand against the bare chests and matted hair. Her life just looks so incredibly beautiful that I’d like to be let in.

I had the pleasure of checking out the Gen Art Fresh Faces in Fashion SS12 show this past Friday as part of NYC Fashion Week. Gen Art has helped to launch the careers of several now-famous designers including Zac Posen, Philip Lim and Vena Cava.
Eleven women’s, men’s and accessory designers were featured and for me, two collections really stood out. The first was Eighteenth, created by the young designer Alexa Galler. She creates new takes on the t-shirt (it IS possible) as well as clingy cotton dresses and skirts. She started Eighteenth due to a lack of inspiration while designing denim rhinestone shorts for tween girls at Walmart.
Everything on the runway I wanted to own – Eighteenth is super wearable and down to earth, just like Galler herself who seemed like a hilarious person. She mentioned that theme of the show was “I gained ten pounds, but grew ten inches”…serious LOLZ! See the Fall 2011 collection below.
The second stand-out collection was William Okpo, created by sisters Lizzy and Darlene Okpo. The label is named after their father, a fan of ironing and sharp dressing. The designs somehow managed to be be structured and bohemian and the sisters themselves are also incredibly cool with endless braids and stacks of bangles. See images from their Fall 2011 collection below.
