oh isabel

 via here

there are only a few designers out there that I truly love.

Isabel Marant is at the top of that list.

she manages to design collections that equal parts tomboy cool, sexy feminine and always a bit disheveled.

i love the layered look this girl has with all the different textures, colors and a bike to boot. 

the thing that works so well for me here is that she sticks to solids and complementary tones, nothing too busy. 

Asos Spring Lookbook

if you haven't already discovered ASOS, an online fashion mecca with fantastic prices and even more fantastic styles, then now is the time. 

The spring lookbook is out and is proving to be one of their most gorgeous, diverse and interesting collections yet. 

And if ASOS the brand doesn't suit you then don't forget to check out all of the other designers they showcase such as; APC, Antik Batik, Chie Mahara, Dagmar, Jil Sander and Karen Walker to name a very few. 

I have already hit up thier winter sale and found two beautiful dresses and a gorgeous blouse that I have been wearing in a constant rotation. 

:) 

happy hunting!

helmut lang pre-fall '11

the pre-fall collection by Helmut Lang ticks all the right boxes.

sexy, strong, feminine and soft...all the things i want in my wardrobe. 

there isn't a piece in this collection that I couldn't figure out a way to wear. They are all so cool!
