There have been a few eyewear lookbooks this summer that have caught my eye (pun not intended).
To start off, Karen Walker’s new collection “Celebrate the sun” has a range of both round and rectangular styles, coming in a nice little selection of coloured lenses and frames – cobalt blue, blood orange, tortoise shell, plain pastal colours and black. They are all definately worth looking at this summer.
view the rest of them at http://www.karenwalker.com.
If Karen Walker hasn’t got what your after then take a look at Ksubi.
Ksubi have 13 new unisex frames as part of their new eyewear collection for 09/2010: Book Club. All of the frames [...]
1. A little introduction for our readers who might not know the real Alvin?
I’m Alvin Manalo, the designer and creator of Saint Augustine Academy, a music snob and general nice guy. Haha.
2. When and How was Saint Augustine Academy born?The idea of the label started in December 2003. I really wanted to make something that reflected what me and my friends were into: music, art. We just really loved to dress up.
3. When was the turning point in your life that you believe designing and clothing could be more than just a passion, but [...]
Fashion these days is beginning to move into a whole new realm, pushing boundaries of heinous vs. amazing and wearable vs. extreme. I find it exciting seeing the visible results of why these worldwide fashion houses are known as the masters of design. Alexander McQueen is among many of the designers who most definitely need a mention. McQueen’s latest collection, inspired by the textures and skins of mysterious underwater creatures and reptiles, is truly an innovation in the field of fashion design. The silhouettes of these amazing dresses are futuristic in nature, complimented by the digital print patterns, turning any [...]
Im sure everybody will know what im talking about when i mention the word “DERELICTE”. Yes, Zoolander. The up market, high end fashion label by MUGATU, inspired by hobos and the homeless on the streets.
Its not just evident in that movie, but now we are seeing more and more labels “creating” pieces of clothing with holes, rips, tears, unfinished hems or paint thrown all over it. some people might pick up a shirt or a pair of jeans and say something like “what the fuck, $99.95 for a shirt with holes in it” or “these jeans have holes in them” [...]
Scott and Quill, two talented, young, inspirational designers who have released their newest range from their aesthetically pleasing label.
The Sydney sider duo have been designing together for over three years and in this time they have evolved their creations into the Twelfth Letter. In their newest spring/summer range we see a variety of over sized both printed and plain tees, singlets and vests. Not just your typical range of shirts or singlets, the Twelfth Letter delivers beautiful pieces with stunning cuts. Hitting shelves this summer.
summer is coming up and its that time when you lock away all your coats and leather jackets and pull out your thongs, singlets and boardshorts.
but i was having a little look through my wardrobe and realised i would have to go out and buy a whole new closet; singlets, shorts and all that swimwear.
WELL STOP, you can do it alot cheaper than you think. i had a little flick through a few of those old shirts that i just dont really wear that much anymore and decided instead of throwing these bad boys out, cut them into singlets and [...]
I recenlty had my long locks of hair trimmed away to reveal a little rounded (close to shaved) head. At the time i had had a bit of a scruff growing because i always thought it complemented my longer hair quite well, but since i have a shorter cut now i am reluctant to keep a bit of scruff. its just so much easier for me because i am that little bit lazy and i do like to let it go out of control sometimes, but now that its grown out a bit it doesnt look so warding as it [...]
im always trying to look ahead in fashion, presuming whats going to be in and keeping an eye out, but when it comes to jeans, im stumped. if u have a look back at bands like the sex pistols and the doors. they all wore their skinny jeans back in the 60’s and 70’s and they are still around now. But will the trend of the skinny legs be around for ever? Leather jackets on the other hand are timeless, you can own one that is 30 years old that still looks kick ass, every time winter comes around you [...]
