Spring 2010 Loves

It’s not even cold yet, but looking at London Fashion Week’s latest has got me craving NEXT summer…and I never thought I’d really say that. There’s something about these London designers…to me, they can’t do wrong. There must be something in the water. Here are some of my favorites thus far:
00230m
This amazing Julien Mcdonald dress is great for a night out, I’m a sucker for voluminous shoulders & longsleeve dress so this is prettyyy much perfect.
00020m
Gorgeous mini dress by Antonio Berardi. I love the color, sparkly details, and outrageously short hemline (maybe it can make even myy legs look long?) You can read more about my crush on Antonio on my blog…
00110m
Such a young & fun outfit to wear during the day. And my best friend Elizabeth would die for the shark tee. Outfit by Unique.
00070m
Not my favorite length for dresses, but this one by Mary Katrantzou is an absolute piece of art.
00140m-1
I’m loving this strong, structured jacket paired with flowy, flirty shorts & heels. How easy & cute. By Sykes.
00210m
Another amazing, but easy look, this time for night by Jasmine Di Milo. I am dying for those pantsss!

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not ready to completely skip over fall & winter, but just a few things to look forward to! xx, L.

I can’t help myself

Quite frankly, I just love this too much and can’t help but make it more public. The only other video that makes me as happy as “kittens inspired by kittens” is this sassy little number performed by these fun-loving men.

…and might I add that they are just so darn handsome!

Lindsay Lohan + Emanuel Ungaro..?!?!

Lindsay Lohan_0_0

I’m in shock. Some people in the world apparently stilllll find “LiLo” to be relevant. And one of those people is Emanuel Ungaro CEO and president Mounir Moufarrige?! He made the Adderall-addicted trainwreck- on- heels his “Artistic Advisor” (ok, that was mean, i apologize kinda). She’s supposed to work with Estrella Archs as a “super-consumer”/designer business model. Archs who has worked for Prada, Pucci, & Nina Ricci, must feel ever-so privileged to be able to add Lohan to her resume. Gross. What artistic qualities can she possibly offer the fashion world…if that long lost legging line 6126 (who knew it even had a name?) she came up with is any indication, Ungaro is about to make a huge mistake. No, Moufarrige, not all publicity is good publicity. Good luck…

the “master” cleanse.

“I just moved back to Burlington after being in New York City for 2 years and you’re doing the cleanse? For real?”
IMG_0053

Yes, my best friend and favorite person ever, Bess is on day SIX of the MASTER CLEANSE. For those who don’t know, the MASTER CLEANSE consists of not eating or drinking anything but some liquid concoction of water, lemons, cayenne pepper, and maple syrup. She has been drinking this mixture for 5 days now. She has to start every morning with a “salt bath,” which I suppose is the whole cleansing aspect of the 10 day trip. Oh and she can drink water and peppermint tea, as well.

Nonetheless, beer, BBQs, and even vodkawaters are not allowed. She is doing the cleanse for herself. Nobody else.

This past weekend was my first weekend back in Burlington, Vermont after living in Williamsburg, Brooklyn for the past two years of my life. I could not of asked for a better weekend. We hung at the beach, we drank PBRs by noon, BBQ’d, and hung at the Burton Bowl. We caught up with old friends and laughed till our stomache’s hurt. Some of us “blonde moshed” and some of us ate rise-and-shiners (bacon egg and cheese/hash brown delights from kountry kart deli) at 2 a.m. If felt like 2006. It felt like home.

Bess Aili hung out with us…the entire time. She packed her cooler of concoctions and sipped on maple-lemon water for hours on end. She saved my life when I was too drunk to keep going and she drank peppermint tea when we all ate hungover herby turkeys from Breugger’s Bagel. When we went BBQ shopping, she bought lemons and syrup. She stayed strong and she kept on the cleanse. She was hungry and I’m sure she wanted to sling back a jack and coke, but she didn’t.

You know how someone always has a story of a friend that tried to do it, but only got to day 3 or 4. Well, I already have a friend that got past that. And I know I will soon have a friend that successfully completed THE MASTER CLEANSE. I am proud of Bess for many a things. This is just one more success she can add to her achievements. She is amazing. She is Bess.
