How Street It Is

paris fashion week is in full swing: PETA is screaming “fourrure, torture!” all over the city, and models-off-duty are swarming the metros. the latter came as a surprise to me, as i hardly had them pegged as the public-transportation types. anyways, i’m loving photographer tommy ton’s new project for style.com, which opts to focus on the pretty people attending the shows, rather than those who are in them . . .

to see more of tommy tom’s work, check out his blog here.

Please Don’t Feed the Models

fashion is only the attempt to realize art in living forms and social intercourse.

Swede Heart

hello my dears, hope you all had a happy weekend. i just found out that i’m hitting stockholm in a few weeks! here’s what my swed-est dreams are made of:

{hotel j on the scandinavian sea, where nantucket meets nordic cool}

{moderna museet, the museum of modern art}

{that elusive stockholm style}

cropped yyigal jacket, alexander wang pants and givenchy booties that were even more beautiful in person when i spotted them at shine

ps. in my excitement, i started researching the city and stumbled upon a “list of useful swedish phrases.” among them: “Min svävare är full med ålar,” which roughly translates into, “My hovercraft is full of eels.” i’m quite unsure of what this is supposed to express (bliss? boredom? imminent danger?) but i plan on inserting it randomly into conversations until i find out. more updates to come.

We’re All Mad Here

in honor of tim burton’s much-anticipated interpretation of alice in wonderland, french department store printemps invited a few creative geniuses of a different sort (namely, designers) to create alice-inspired window displays. i all but ran to see the final products on a recent saturday afternoon and, unsurprisingly, i was joined by approximately one billion tourists. after narrowly escaping death-by-trampling, i managed to snap a few photos of my favorite displays:

{the late alexander mcqueen}

{manish arora}

{chloé}

on a related note, enjoy this wonderful (har, har)  little video by pogo:

Wedded Bliss

anja rubick in the march issue of vogue nippon . . .

rubick manages to add a generous punch of sexuality to virginal white dresses, an innocent baby lamb, and a serene setting of rolling hills and haystacks. girl’s got a gift.
