La Cara

Fashion Crush > When you think of model Cara Delevingne, your first thoughts are probably of her insanely goofy Instagram selfies or how lucky she is to be Karl's latest muse. That's all fluff when it comes down to the booming career of this 21 year old British model, who in the last year has walked over 30 runways including her second appearance in Victoria Secret's coveted televised Fashion Show. With her famous eyebrows, Cara is spunky and gorgeous yes, but becoming the face of a brand synonymous with sexy was a choice unexpected. As one of La Perla's three new brand ambassadors, Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott shoot Delevingne alongside supermodels Liu Wen and Malgosia Bela for their 2014 Spring Summer Collection. Between her smoldering photos and sit down interview, you almost forget she has any side but sexy.

Not Your Normal Skivvies

Look Book Lovin' >  X-Rated. Almost Offensive. Showoff. These are just a few of the pieces from For Love and Lemons debut Skivvies line and I have never been so amped about a collection, let alone a debut collection, of lingerie to be released. Largely due to their ability to create so much hype through social media, usage in campaigns and general wear by connected stylists, For Love and Lemons duo, Gillian Mahin and Laura Hall have successfully created a line of undergarments that every woman making her own rules in fashion has been waiting for.

Throw away your unflattering bandeau tops and forget about unwanted side boob. For every dress, top and outfit that you have never had the right bra for, The Skivvies collection has you covered.

Well, sort of.

Check out the incredibly hot look book here.
Shop the collection here. Also available on Revolve and Nasty Gal.

Meet and Greet

 

 

Wish List > I would like to introduce you to the new object of my eye, the Furla Avocado Pebbled Leather Anemone Shopper Tote. Pretty isn't she? Known for the quality of their leather and design that maintains the family's 80 year tradition of beauty and simplicity, Furla released this well crafted top handle as an outstanding example of why their bags are so hard to pass by. (They are also sold out everywhere, hence my utter disappointment.)

I actually had my fingers on this bad boy just a few hours ago and foolishly decided to sleep on it. Now someone much smarter than I is going to rest peacefully tonight knowing she has this beaut sitting in her closet.

I'm green with envy.

If it is released again, you can find the best price here, lowered from $428. And if green isn't your thing, it comes in cherry red and white.

Lesson Learned.

Wish List > So I opted to sleep in instead of waking up at 5am for the November 14th release of Isabel Marant pour H&M collaboration. Seeing that the collection was sold out online before the stores even opened and only one location in San Diego carried the line, I never stood a chance. And now instead of staring at these fringe boots or abstract print skinnies, quilted leather pants or Penny Lane shag sweaters hanging beautifully in my closet, I am looking at photos of fall leaves on my Instagram. Le sigh.

But all is not lost. After berating myself for missing the release, I gifted myself. I could no longer take all the photos of every front-row invite blogger wearing their handpicked pieces from the collection. So I bought something better. The Multicolor Momo Bouclé Wool Blend Jacket from Etoile Isabel Marant. And seeing that this piece is now sold out as well, it makes my heart feel a little better. 

Lysted here.
