Anonymous asked: Hi! I love reading your blog. I was just wondering where I could purchase the notebook you posted about earlier?
Fall 2011: Emilio Pucci
Always a favorite.
I couldn’t leave out a brief rundown of my favorites…
Michelle Williams in Chanel Spring 2011 Couture
Mila Kunis in Elie Saab Spring 2011 Couture
Florence Welch in Valentino Spring 2011 Couture
Cate Blanchett in Givenchy Spring 2011 Couture
Things I want to discuss: Zoe Saldana at the Spirit Awards
Zoe Saldana in Dolce & Gabbana Spring 2011 // February 26
I was really unsure about this dress on the runway but it’s styled well and suits Zoe quite nicely. I don’t think it would work on just anyone though…
The contents of my tote bag now includes this amazing notebook…
Dope as fuck.

Oscar fashion has been, regrettably, beaten to death. And that’s okay. What I want to look at specifically is Anne Hathaway’s wardrobe last night…
Valentino Fall 2002 Couture
Armani Privé Spring 2011
Lanvin tuxedo and button down
Givenchy Fall 2009 Couture
Oscar de la Renta Fall 2011

Rosie Huntington Whiteley in Valentino Fall 2009 Couture
Taylor Swift in Zuhair Murad Spring 2011

Nicole Richie covers Harper's Bazaar (Russia) //...
This is some truly heinous styling.
Included:
Prada Spring 2011 // Viktor & Rolf Spring 2011 // Prada Spring 2011
Max Mara Spring 2011 // Miu Miu Spring 2011 // Moschino Spring 2011
Just a quick note, I’m in San Francisco for the next few days so posting will be less frequent and Oscar coverage will not be in real time.
But you can perhaps look forward to shitty photos of what I’m doing, seeing, wearing by way of my iPhone.
Cheers to the weekend.
Fall 2011: more from Milan!
Etro
Gianfranco Ferré
Prada
Look of the day: my boyfriend cleans up quite nicely.
Alexander Skarsgard // February 24
Love that he skipped the usual solid colored button down and went for this patterened one instead.
Obsessed!
Rachel Bilson // February 24
With colored pants. And her hair.
So this photo has made its rounds. And it’s super cute and all, especially from a fashion lover’s perspective, but…
from a real world perspective isn’t there something just a bit vulgar about a one year old wearing a fur jacket and receiving a Chanel purse for her 1st birthday?
Fall 2011: Fendi
Some things were awesome, some were not…
that’s life.
Kate Moss // February 23
I love it when women nail “menswear.” She makes this pantsuit look amazing.
Things I’d like to discuss: Ciara fits so much adorableness into one LV dog bag
Ciara // February 23
Also, I like her jacket.
Lanvin Los Angeles…
versus Lanvin Milan…
In love with the Milan store’s understated facade.
Evening jumpsuit!
Katie Holmes // February 23
I don’t think I like her shoe choice, but I love the jumpsuit, naturally. I can’t wait to whip out my E.J. for the next cocktail party or E.J. worthy event I attend.
Oh hey this awesome clutch? It’s actually an iPad case from the one and only Jagger Edge!
Yep, the genius behind the dope as fuck iPhone covers is making a big bang for Spring 2011 with an array of new iPhone covers (yes, for the iPhone 4, too), gorgeous deconstructed leather bags and clutches, jewelry AND iPad cases!
Best of all, they will be making their debut at ShopBop and Saks in...
Shades of grey. I really like grey. It’s easily one of my favorite colors to wear, especially with other shades of it or black or white. The point is, I like her scarf.
Rachel Bilson // February 22
I never really noticed her Rag & Bone booties until now but she has worn them a number of times before…
I wish they were still in stock.
“I don’t want to be reviewed,” he says. “I’m not an artist with an opening; this is not a film. I’m just trying to make pretty clothes. And beautiful clothes make beautiful women, but sometimes they don’t make fashion news. I don’t want to be pushed to think about what we have that’s new when we don’t need anything new except another...
Halle Berry in Elie Saab Spring 2011 Couture // February 22
Kate Bosworth in Mulberry Fall 2010 // February 23
She is killllllllling me with these adorable denim dresses. And she has managed to wear one no matter what the weather…like the time she looked too adorable for words in sunny Los Angeles.
A little PSA…
If you take a look in the top left corner of HLC, there’s a little present for all of you,
I’ve joined forces with online boutique Tobi to bring you 20% off your purchase!
Tobi has an amazing selection of designers for both men and women including some of my personal favorites: Alexander Wang, Mike Gonzales (!), Ksubi, Minntonka, Vince, Acne, Helmut Lung and even...
Fall 2011: Gucci
Yet again, Frida Giannini has turned out a stellar fucking array. My current obsession with Gucci started with their Fall 2010 collection and has only grown stronger with each new presentation (Spring 2011 was soo perfect I die thinking about it). The latest is no exception…

There’s menswear and sexy dresses, color and neutrals — she didn’t...
Julia Restoin-Roitfelt in Burberry Spring 2011 // February 21
I loved this coat on the runway and especially love the way Julia manages to make this trench still look quite classic despite the metallic fabric.

Things I’d like to discuss: how wonderfully Olivia utilizes shoes
Olivia Palermo at Erdem // February 21
Olivia Palermo at Emilio de la Morena // February 22
They add to, and complete, her looks without distracting from the rest of the outfit.
“If you’re listening, Natalie…”
The dress Style.com thinks Natalie Portman should wear to the Oscars:
Mary Katrantzou Fall 2011 [via]
I would LOVE to see her in this. The color, the print, the darling bow…splendid.
At first glance I thought this was an evening jumpsuit and my heart was bursting.
Kim Kardashian // February 21
Then I realized it looks more like a pants + tank combo.
In any case, well done Kim.
It’s easy to forget how well an understated look like this can work (especially for Kim who tends to go overkill). But here she has all the right elements and doesn’t look like...
I’m unsure about snake print anything.
I like it in theory, but I then I remember how much I hate snakes…and it can be quite a tacky print.
So as you can imagine, my heart was torn over these Lanvin wedges when I first spotted them.
Lanvin - snake print wedge, $1,120 @ Netaporter
after seeing them on Netaporter’s facebook page on a real person, I decided I love them,...
New JOIE at Shopbop.
While considerably, heinously overpriced, Joie is still a favorite in my wardrobe. It’s contemporary and it’s laid back yet luxurious…
Joie Emilie sweater ($238) paired with Soft Joie maxi skirt ($128)
Joie Bellina maxi dress ($198)
Joie Bergamot romper ($258)
Joie Wesley top ($218) paired with Current Elliott boyfriend shorts ($168)
Pair any of the...
London Fashion Week looks I love…

Dusting off my cowboy boots…
[photos via]
It can be hard to do “cowgirl chic” without looking like a fucking idiot or super lame and cheesy.
I recently re-found my vintage cowboy boots and this was just the inspiration I needed to work them back into my wardrobe in a big way…
I’m thinking skinny jeans in bold colors, over sized tanks with bare...

MY Mr. Porter picks…
Sorry for the confusion, the site does not open to the public until Tuesday, the 22nd. Here’s a quick peek at what I’m loving so far:
[paisley pocket squares? yes, please. and how adorable are the button cuff links?]
A classic trench by Burberry, a single breasted Navy blazer by Rag & Bone, adorable cuff links, a chunky caridigan, Alexander McQueen...
Gentlemen, meet Mr. Porter…
the best thing to happen to men’s shopping (and fashion) in a long, long time.
Their current feature, Men of the Moment, profiles eight men with careers in every industry from finance to music.
[sorry you guys down below who got cut off — you’re not any less handsome]
Take a minute and check out the site, it’s pretty fucking...
Olivia Palermo // February 18
Try not to freak out…
Brandy & Melville @ Revolve
affordable, dope as fuck stripes.
ALL under $60!
Not quite sure how I feel about the “one size fits all” deal but it’s a risk I’m willing to take.
Shop Gilt Groupe by your favorite style icon through the ages!
Her sartorial choices have made the legendary Katharine Hepburn a pioneer both on and off screen. At a time when few women in Hollywood dared to take fashion risks, Hepburn unwittingly redefined feminine dressing by borrowing heavily from the boys. And her roomy slacks, crisp button-downs, and oxford lace-ups continue...
Givenchy Summer 2011
I think I have an unhealthy obsession with bright orange.
I want to bathe myself in it.
And this new Givenchy polish will be an easy way to get a fix without looking like a pumpkin.
