Bottega Veneta Spring 2010

Bottega Veneta had, byfar, the best Spring 2010 mens collection! I loved everything about it, the youthfulness, the hair, the colours, the bags, c'est incroyable! Tomas Maier was inspired by American sportswear, and in my opinion, a European's take on American sportswear is always better than an American's take on American Sportswear. I can hardly wait for next spring to go shopping to try to find Bottega Veneta inspired clothing at H&M! View more from the collection, after the jump!

Lily Allen for Chanel

I love Lily Allen. I love Chanel. So several months ago, when the world freaked out in disgust when they found out Karl Lagerfeld was shooting Lily Allen, I was secretly happy. I was nervous for the campaign to leek, because if the shots were tacky or otherwise terrible, the world would be hating on Lily more than they are now. I am not sure if I love or hate this campaign. I love Lily, and what she is wearing . The pearls, sunglasses and LBD remind me of Holli Golightly. My only problem with the campaign is the bags themselves! They look very tackey for Chanel! I was hoping something a little more classic, yet young like a jade or pink 2.55 with an ipod and cosmetic holder (like the ones featured in the fall show). After the jump are more shots from the campaign, and a bag from the fall show.

Stella McCartney Fall 2009



Photos from Stella McCartney's Fall 2009 Ad campaign. The photos speak for themselves... but incase you don't lover them already, here is what Stella said about them:
"I’m a huge Bambi fan, and the film reminds me of my mum,” said Stella. “And we wanted to have some fun. The clothes in the campaign are looking quite fierce, and we wanted to contrast them with the innocence of Bambi."

Róisín Murphy

Apparently, Róisín Murphy is pregnant with her first child! To celebrate, I've decided to share her with everyone! Many of you may have herd of Roisin, as her dance tunes are very, very, catchy! If Roisin had to be classified into a genre, I would say she's sophisticated pop. Roisin was part of the group Moloko, until she went solo. She has had two successful albums, and is working on her third. After the jump are some of my favourite songs by the ever so amazing Roisin!

Five Minutes with Jessica Stam

Modelinia recently sat down with one of my favourite models, Jessica Stam, for a little interview. One of the reasons I love Jessica is because she has quite a personality, and has learned alot from the fashion industry. Here is the interveiw, after the jump!



Who are your favorite designers?
I love Nicolas Ghesquière of Balenciaga. Alber Elbaz. John Galliano. John Galliano, in my opinion, is one of the most talented designers. He’s just a genius at what he does. Designing, coming up with a concept for a show. He’s an absolute mastermind.

Best jeans?
Marc by Marc Jacobs jeans. It’s interesting, oddly enough, because he’s not really known for his jeans. And I love Habitual. Acne. I like every cut. Skinny, wide-leg, boot cut—all of it.

What things in your closet would you never throw away?
I have this… I don’t even know what you’d call it, this old camisole? A silk beigy pink cardigan by Dries Van Noten that I hardly ever wear anymore, but I’ll never throw away. I’ll never throw away my Louboutin pumps—any of them. And I will never throw away this beat up old gray sweatshirt from an ex-boyfriend of mine. We’re still friends.

What do you need to throw out?
I really need get rid of old shoes that I never wear. I have way too many shoes. And jeans. I have to do a spring-cleaning.

What era would you want to bring back?
The seventies. I love the jeans from back then, the wide-leg bell-bottoms. The headbands. The tank tops.

Who is your style icon?
Jane Birkin.

Your favorite store?
Barneys has it all. One store, one stop.

Sasha and Eniko

How cute do Eniko Mihalik and Sasha Pivovarova look in the new H&M ad campaign? The photos were snapped by Terry Richardson, and if you ask me, they look very un-Terry. It looks like they were actually shot in a studio with lighting and a non-standard flash! View more from the campaign, after the jump!

Models v.s. People


Magdalena at Nina Ricci.
I don't think we fully appreciate the beauty and height of models until we see them stand by people more like us. Sure it is easy to call models ugly, when they are always surrounded by other models. However, when models and humans meet, it almost becomes funny how much we underestimate their beauty (and height!!!) See more Models vs People after the jump!
