Chanel No.5

Hello all, I've been busy lately with so much end of the semester of the work and finals starting next week. I have every second planned out, but of course I procrastinate, so I'd like to share just a bit of love.

I remember being a little girl and thinking Chanel No.5 signified elegance and class, and I was right, but it also means fashion and sexiness and sophistication and being an adult and so much more, all that embodies Coco Chanel too. The new short film for Chanel No.5 is such an inspiration, Audrey Tatou is breathtaking, and it's such a pretty little love story that embodies what you fantasize would happen to you when you wear this perfume. Which I will wear one day but once I reach that point that I can. In the meantime I can see this, dream a little and be inspired for the future...

Until summer,

Warning: Memory Low

Hello all,
I have reached finals week (FINALly!) and my brain has jammed up with information on management, sewing standards, and economics. Of course C. and M. are on top of their game as usual and posting some sweet entries, but I promise once school is officially over, I will be right there with them.

Until then...

"Fashion was parallel to architecture, in theory"

I know all of you must read Nylon, if not go pick up a copy ASAP. In the most recent issue (May 2009) of Nylon I came across a new designer: Julian Louie. He grew up in a artistic family, and went to New York City to pursue architecture after he finished his five year program for architecture he pursued his new love, fashion. He interned for Christ in 2005 where he hand painted chiffon dresses, and then went on to study in Berlin where he learned even more about the industry. His collection for 2009 were inspired by his upbringing in California, with neon colors washed out on wetsuits and dresses with plastic zippers. His spring/summer 09 collection, looking almost futuristic consists of many ruffles, and block coloring throughout mainly dresses.

Here are a few:



Everyone should be on the look out for new up and coming designers, and trends like these!
