Here’s a great way to start your weekend: looking at goodlooking guys for the 9 Countries 9 Men CK Underwear casting at the Bijenkorf department store.

….but for a reason. To celebrate 15 years of his make-up and skincare line, reknown make-up artist François Nars made a serie of 15 photographies, featuring his favorite fashion people and celebrities. The settings of the pictures were all inspired by the names of his iconic products.
Digitalista K. and another fashion-colleague were interviewed about the influence of Fashionbloggers like young Tavi taking over front-rows by daily free newspaper Sp!ts. The article was published in the paper yesterday. So if you were able to catch one of ’em, don’t forget to read it!
October still has two weeks to go, so if you want to support a good cause, now is the time! This month is Breastcancer Awareness Month, and especially for this very important cause accessory-brand Zoe & Morgan joined forces with My Wardrobe.com.
They launched a set of limited edition tees and necklaces to support the UK’s leading breastcancer charity: Breakthrough Breastcancer. 20% of every sale will be donated to this charity.
….That’s the pay-off for a new line of Dell laptops in collaboration with O.P.I. , a known brand in nailpolishes. Another proof that technologie companies are still looking to seduce female consumers.
Not sure if this will result in a laptop-sale rise for Dell, because as a female consumer I am rather interested in having a laptop that blends with my interior, than one that matches my nailpolish…
Is it made of recycled wood? Probably. Because this ‘wooden’ shoulderbag is from eco-friendly designer Stella McCartney, and it featured in her S/S’010 show.
Wether it’s gonna be one of next season’s It-bags or not, the usability is questionable. Would you dare to put your keys or mobile phone in it? I woudn’t. You might loose them between the slits!
I am always curious what Marc Jacobs is going to come up with for the Louis Vuitton show. After last seasons bunny ears, this time it’s all about massive afro-wigs and again…clogs! But different and funny, with hairy details, straps or a small metal heel.
The clothes were less luxury Vuitton like we’re used to, but had more of a fresh , sporty and urban look. Jacobs describes it as: ”80s and ’90s New Age traveller and street clothes, embracing the hippie-cyber, tribal-punk world.” Definitely a mash up of styles and a little Indian/Native American touch to it, with moccassins and Davy Crockett-like coloured racoon tails hanging down the bags.
Opening Ceremony was one of the most inspiring shopping-finds in New York when I was there in February last year. An online shop wasn’t available yet, but now it is! The Soho-located shop reminded us a bit of SPRMRKT in Amsterdam. Interesting labels, collaborations and stylish personnel are a common thing for both shops.
Opening Ceremony also has a muse: Actress Chloë Sevigny. Known for her distinctive sense of style, Chloë Sevigny has designed a collection for Opening Ceremony, since Spring 2008. She finds her inspiration in nostalgia for her early days in New York, high school thrift store finds, and music by Depeche Mode and the Slits.
Hatsjooooehhh! No, it’s not a case of hayfever. It’s just Chanel taking us to the farm. The decor of this season’s show was a barn filled with hay bales in which Karl’s new male muse, Baptiste Giabiconi, fooled around with models like Lara Stone and Freja Beja Erichsen… Even some celebrities made their appareance à la ferme Chanel: Rihanna, Prince and Claudia Schiffer.
