Yea! I love these really fun and chic bags available now from Yazbukey...Yazbukey is Yaz and Emel, two Middle Eastern Ottoman princesses...and they seem to be having a lot of fun with their fashion venture...just look at the pieces below. I would love to own any of these. Especially the mouse purse at the bottom. Available at Colette and Yazbukey's site. ♡

UM PS: DOESN'T FEEL LIKE IT'S BEEN 12 THOUSAND YEARS SINCE THE LAST FASHION WEEK??? I THINK IT'S BECAUSE OF THAT WEIRD OVERDONE/ FORCED RESORT "WEEK"...ANYWAY...JUST A THOUGHT...IT FEELS LIKE A MILLION YEARS TO ME! ☺
Kansas City fatale, designer Peggy Noland, has been blowing up for some time. Her new collection of unisex sportswear debuts at NY Fashion Week....at none other than the notorious newly-resurrected (for real) slush-lush haunt The Hole, a then-gay-boy club (um, the hole....hello!) that a few years ago used to turn into a hipster after-hours on Wednesday nights (all straights included). I loved that place. The walls were covered in graffiti and ick, and the floors...I never wanted to look down, but it always felt/seemed like the entire floor was covered in water (of some nature!)...but you knew when you had no where else to go on a Wednesday night in Manhattan, you could head over to The Hole and run into all your homies and see some cool girls, too (like Chloe Sevigny, who was always had a guy on each side of her in her lovely lovely clothes....true story). I don't know what the "new" hole is like, but this might be super cool...and fun. And a nice break from the douches that cram into Bryant Park (yep....for ever 50 lame-asses, there's like five cool real fashion people who don't look like they spent a year planning their garment dis ass ter). I wasn't able to get the new collection images in time for this post...the collection showing is called PEGGY NOLAND HAS BALLS...but I can show you some of the pieces available on the site's shop...and some other images I rounded up. Looks like a revival. We need some new crazy ass blood in the mix. Right? Aight. ♡

Gorgeous Chinese paper cut falsie eyelashes by Luna & Curious ! In shapes you've probably never seen before...absolutely amazing for any shoot. I love these lashes, totally original and delicately done...ethereal...as well as the way they've been shot. Perfectly sweet and mysterious. ♡

Small Horse Eyelashes (though they look like seahorses to me)
I just watched Loïc Prigent's latest documentary...playing now on Sundance (love Sundance...!). He's the lovely who did the lovely Marc Jacobs doc that I've literally watched over 1000 times. No joke. I love this style of doc. Of music choice and humor. And narration. And that everything is really in French with subtitles. (KIDS...LEARN FRENCH AND ITALIAN...and don't every stop using it! I studied French for 5 years and then stopped, thinking it would stay...it DIDN'T!) Sundance is lovely enough to share it with us. So I'll post a chapter on here and hope you can watch the rest on the Sundance site...forever! (I would have posted all the chapters...but it doesn't allow you to.) It's quite long...90 minutes. So get something lovely to munch on and turn the ringer on your phone off. There's also a follow up that's a bit shorter by 30 minutes. It's GIRL ON THE RUN: Winter 2010...and I believe it to be about the economic climate and how it's affecting fashion. Or, the fashion industry. There's also a series called THE DAY BEFORE which is 36 hours with a designer before their fashion show. The first episode was DVF, which was really good. And the second is going to be Versace. Loïc gets personal...in their zone, so to speak. That's also what I enjoy. The first film...10 YEARS....pinpoints the most poignant things that happened in the past 10 years...it includes the nasty break up and friction between Yves Saint Laurent and Tom Ford's take over and the backers behind the stress, the sad goodbye of Christian Lacroix and even some funny scandals about Anna Wintour wearing the same dress twice in one week.
I LOVE THIS!!! And will buy it as soon as I can. I'm an Aquarius...we obsess over a few things, watching and dissecting them over and over and over...and then we move on to the next batch. :)This film reminds me of so many reasons why I wanted to be a fashion editor when I was a little little child. But it also bums me out, because it really gets into the big money reasons why the old ways of fashion are totally disappearing, and the business of fashion and the money of fashion really f***s it all up. And how will it and can it ever go back again? I mean, some of these houses are insanely huge...I wonder what it was like to be a fashion editor in the late 50s or mid 60s. When the houses were small and personal and respected for talent, not the money they brought in. It says somewhere in this film that if Chanel were alive today, she'd still be a burlesque dancer.
You can follow onto the next chapter here on the Sundance Channel site. *** (Might be best to just click the site link and see all the chapters...there are 10!) ♡
*** NOTE: I just checked the link, and apparently the link for GIRL ON THE RUN: 10 YEARS is not there. BUT if you click on GIRL ON THE RUN: WINTER 2010, you'll see all the chapters for 10 YEARS.
