Marc Jacobs' colours make me giddy

These bags are taken straight off the the catwalk, where they were part of a heavenly mish-mash of colour and texture, but I'm imagining them against the backdrop of the perfect dark wash jeans and a white t-shirt. Lovely.





More colourful, and less static than his usual work for Marc Jacobs, Jeurgen Teller grabs the glamour and chilled-out vibe of the show, puts it on paper and compels us to look. I absolutely love this and can't wait to see more.

WELCOME


So I've decided to bite the bullet and join the blogosphere. After discovering the thrills of the online fashion world about a year ago, I have become a devoted lurker. I think it is the time to take that fateful step from lurker to active participator.
I hope to avoid regurgitating all the wonderful posts around and about, and will strive to create something which will add value not volume. And also strive to not write like this is a job application. Whoops.

It's difficult to resist the temptation of overloading this first post with all my favourite fashiony things (humans are always so desperate to make sure they are transmitting the an 'accurate' portrayal of themselves, 'accurate' as in what they think they themselves to be, which probably bears very little relation to accuracy anyhow, don't you think?) but I shall instead whet your appetite with this editorial from Winter 2010 Factory magazine. Good reminder that it is still WINTER. Must remember this.
