Marc & Elodie

Adrian C of Fashion Verbatim very aptly wondered if anyone has ever questioned Marc Jacobs’ godliness.
Well, he has to be a god of some kind. If anyone other than him sports a tattoo of a cartoon character, I will think they look completely daft. But Marc Jacobs with his Spongebob Squarepants tattoo - its quirky [...]

Cute Japanese Cosmetics

The Boyfriend is currently in Japan on vacation with his bachelor mates. I thought about tagging along, but I would have stuck out like a sore thumb. With Stephie still in Europe, I feel a little left behind this few days. But there’s a silver lining to every dark cloud, and in this case, it’ll [...]

Dior: Starting the Resort Season

With Dior unveiling its Resort 2009 collection, Resort season has officially begun! Actually, I’m still a little confused about exactly when Resort season starts…
The ethnic-inspired pieces in the Dior collection didn’t really appeal to me, but I love, love, love the full, swishy tiered skirts, which is one of the main themes.

My list of fashion blogs to read on my Google Reader is constantly expanding, so much so that I often find myself with a hundred plus posts to flip through after just one day. Not that I’m complaining of course
Despite this potential backlog of fashion reading, I’m still always on the look out [...]

Capture the Fashion Action

A few posts back, I wrote about the illustrations of Cocopit. Her rendition of fashion is dreamy but one can’t really say that they are abstract.
Then I chanced upon the works of Jarno Kettunen. They are quite something else.

Mode of Freedom

In my 3rd year of university, I was in Copenhagen for around half a year on the exchange program. On paper, I was there to study politics for a semester at the University of Copenhagen, but unofficially, my main priority was to get to know the place and to have as much fun as possible. [...]

Hedi Slimane for Dior Homme

Hello! Male readers of Fashion Nation, this post is mainly for you.
I’ve found these lovely pictures off schalling of the glorious times of Hedi Slimane for Dior Homme, and I have to share them with you. The photo is huge, so you’ll have to be slightly patient on the loading time:

I’ve also found an excellent [...]

Blake Lively In Paris

Vanity Fair brought Blake Lively along to Paris for the Spring/Summer ‘08 Fashion Week. For a shoot of course
I will expect more exciting photographs, but even if these are not wildly cutting-edge, at least they’re pretty.

It may be a genetic disorder, but I can never resist tulle, especially if it comes in a [...]

The Urban Collection

I was randomly reading Fashion156 when I chanced upon The Urban Collection. For an online vintage store, they have the cutest clothing!

Behold a lace cape, perfect for a weekend brunch out in the sun by the Botanic Gardens. The Dempsey Project Shop Cafe is another frolick-friendly possibility with this (:

This 80s couture jacket looks just [...]
