Sometimes I like being careless


Task for the weekend?

Find a perfect nail colour for new season. I am hesitating between those two:

OPI Barefoot in Barcelona     
OPI Tickle my France

No, don't worry...I have other things on my mind as well...

It's LANVIN

It is official - Lanvin will create a capsule collection for H&M.
And may I just say "Hell yeah"!

Collection will be designed by Alber Elbaz ( womenswear) and Lucas Ossendrijver (menswear) and will launch in Europe on November 23th. Now I know were I am going to be on this (probably) cold winter morning.



Lanvin is a french brand with great history and tradition. Elbaz is its Artistic Director from 2001 and absolutely every picece he creates is pure magic and perfection. He mixes classic with modernity as no one else and I am absolute fan (please take my Birthday wish post as an exemple).

For H&M collection I am hoping for clean lines, classic silhouettes with little twist of insanity. And more over - affordable prices. If it won't be the case It will take me a while to reach proper Lanvin budget as their pieces are rather expensive.
Looks preview from November 2th on hm.com

And at the end, Lanvin ad campaign  for A/W 2010/11 featuring two polish top models Ania Rubik and Magda Frackowiak. Bravo girls, I am patriotically proud ( and I think I have just invented this word)...

New brand in the e-commerce world

There is good news for online shoppers community - Zara just launched first online store for their pret-à-porter.

What we like:
  • creation&graphics
  • clear, very professional photos
  • extras: videos, lookbooks for every month
  • even if you miss the new collection (and we all now that chez Zara collections are changing almost every month) you can still get your favourites online
What we don't:
  • there are still some technical bugs
  • it will makes us spend even more on clothes

Let's shop, shall we?

Bridges are collapsing the first

Instead of simply announcing the name of it's upcoming designer collaboration, H&M invites us to play a little game.






There are voices saying it's Carolina Herrera and Thomas Maier for Bottega Veneta. I am pretty happy with both options.

The official announcment on 9th September.

Go back to school with style
