Martha Marcy May... Mccc???

I really like Nylon Magazine because:
- their looks are easily adaptable to everyday life
- they mix both high and low end pieces creatively
- their editorials are totally my style... so much that I often see clothes/accessories that I already own depicted in their pages.

Their October issue, fronted by new Hollywood It-girl Elizabeth Olsen promoting her breakthrough leading role in indie flick "Martha Marcy May Marlene", is no exception.

I am absolutely in love with the Chanel tweed jacket worn by Ms. Olsen on the cover. If I had a few thousand dollars to toss on such an item, that would be it. This piece is timeless and so versatile.

But most importantly, I was delighted to see that one of the few purchases that I've made so far for Fall 2011 has made it to their pages. Elizabeth is wearing the Brixton "Kat" felt hat, which I bought a few weeks ago at Unicorn Boutique in the exact same colour. Have I found my style twin?

Nylon Cover for October 2011 + Editorial that I like so much, I'm thinking of getting gray leopard print jeans...


The perfect hat for Fall!

Desperately Seeking Sleeveless Denim Jackets





So, I've been reading everywhere that the 90's grunge look is back (actually, it has been in back for a while now)...

However, sleveless denim jackets are NOWHERE TO BE FOUND.
Where are they??????

I've been searching the web for them over the past couple of weeks (ok, months...) and it seems that no respectable label has gotten the memo on how awesome they are.
So please, lay off the chockers (yes, they're back... apparently... but more on that later) and BRING BACK SLEEVELESS DENIM JACKETS!!

I've searched through eBay and only 2 jackets managed to make the cut (only 2 out of the WHOLE eBay store!!!)

This 7 for all Mankind vest.


And this vintage Levi's piece.



I think it's time to quote Andre Leon Talley : "IT'S A FAMINE OF FASHION"

So I'm off to my neighbourhood Salvation Army store. Will probably have to resort to Plan B and make my own.

Until then, I'm totally jealous of Rihanna, who found a great one.

Second Skin

Sorry for having been out of the loop for a while... I can't believe that summer went by so fast. But this means that I get to go shopping for a new Fall wardrobe!

Topping my wishlist are...

This PERFECT studded black leather jacket from Mackage.
I've been trying to get my hands on the perfect leather jacket but none of the designs from this season have caught my eye. This beauty from last season is what dreams are made of and 50% off. Ka-Ching!



Animal print wedge booties from Kelsi Dagger
Anyone who knows me is aware of my infatuation for leopard print garments. I must have been an African Queen in another life. These booties from Nasty Gal will be a great asset to survive the concrete jungle.
