structured moschino

There's something really timeless about these structured pieces from Moschino's Spring 09 collection, with both clean lines and rumpled draping that reminds me of wrapping paper when you rip it off a present. Love it.

pucci - beyond the cliche

Pucci has a new designer, and I love that they're taking the brand beyond the bring patterns they're known for -- it was a really nice surprise when I started looking through the Fall 09 shows.
I love the above pattern, which is a lot more subtle than the stereotypical Pucci, and in colors that you could wear in fall or in spring really. The white one-shouldered dress reminds me at the same time somehow of Chloe under Stella McCartney and Alexander McQueen, which would never be a bad combination I don't think. Tougher leather separates, and more classic draped dresses, helped round out the collection with a little something for any occasion.
I can't wait to keep watching what's new at Pucci each season.



And dear lord don't get me started on the boots....
