FASHION'S NIGHT OUT: Daria, Alexa, Pearl & Alice

I would die to be in New York right now. As well as Fashion Week kicking off, the just had Fashion's Night Out - aimed at "making shopping fun again" and helping local retailers. Apparently it was a major success.


The first pictures of our favorite girls are slowly filtering in - plenty more to come, after all EVERYONE was out (Wasson, Olsens etc etc)


Daria looked killer at Sunglass Hut in to die for leather pants. And look at that skin!
Also love Alexa's mini prom-ish dress at Miu Miu - and, of course, the green nails.
Over in London they threw there own version of FNO. Daisy and Alice nailed it; edgy and youthful yet fun and relaxed.

Hair Ramble #2

God I have been tearing my hair out all day trying to upload the images for this post. Finally figured it was the colour profiles from Photoshop causing drrrama. And of course technical issues are great distractions from uni work.

So speaking of hair, I had a ramble the other day about the half (or more? maybe?) of me that is dying to lop of my hair into a scruffy bob. The rest of my is desperate for it to grow grow grow. Do I keep growing it? Am tempted to dye it darkblonde/lightbrown - am pretty much obsessed with this hair colour. Think young Brooke Shields circa Blue Lagoon and those Calvin Klein ads.

But am I ready to not be blonde? Have been for my WHOLE life. There is something heavenly about long, messy blonde locks. Typical of the iconic Chloe girls (as well as Chloe Sevigny).
 Or should I maintain what I have at the moment? Midlength, growing out, wavy/disheveled - but occasionally bordering on scarecrow when I am v lazy.

Wow this post has been the ultimate in distraction. And sleep calls, 5 hours before wakeup and deadlines tomorrow. But only two sleeps until my five week mid semester break!! Hallelujah!

Best Of The Best of The Brits

Fashionologie has the twelve covers that i-D is doing for their March Best of British issue. They used twelves iconic British faces - past and present - for the issue. My faves are Kate, Lily D, Alice Dellal and Twiggy:

The other cover stars are Aggy, Daisy Lowe, Eliza Cummings, Jourdan Dunn, Naomi Campbell, Stella Tennant, Susie Bick and Yasmin Le Bon.

"The confirmations were instant — it was about doing something for England, and models have been so faceless — British models always have personality."

Oyster: Issue 80

The new issue of Oyster looks great - entitled "Distortion",  Alice Dellal rocks the cover and inside are the amazing Rick Owens and Christopher Kane (plus many more - several Aussies too). Can't wait! Was very impressed by their past two issues, so this should be equally fab!

Refinery Picks

Refinery 29 have chosen their picks of the designers you need to know for 2009. My favorite was Natascha Stolle (especially that first outfit)...

 

Def an Alice Dellal vibe going on don't you think?
