leathershorts


Got inspired by this girls' leather shorts and wanted to see how the shorts season will look like next summer... Crazy that I just stopped wearing shorts (because its too damn cold! ) but I'm dreaming of next summer already, and what I might be wearing then. It might sound silly, but this way I'm constantly living in summertime, no matter if it rain or snows.
The shorts for next summer: Paperbag waist is still on, leather and shimmery fabrics take charge. Super colorful color combinations and prints are in:

I got really curious about that leather shoulder piece with 'wings' (look my previous posting ''waiting in line''). I found, who else than Rihanna sporting the same type of armored shoulder piece -bag. The designer brand behind these creations is Fleet Ilya, who has taken the leather armoring to the next level. Check also her amazing bandage masks.

This wing leather harness below, found at Zana's blog: www.garbagedress.com. It looks very similar to the one that the girl in my previous ''waiting in line'' posting is wearing. These handmade leather armors available for 140 usd @ www.garbagedress.etsy.com

#1. Lovely one (bag).          #2. Interesting looking leather shoulder piece.
The greatest thing to live in a big city is that you can decorate your apartment with stuff found literally from the garbage bin. People throw out so much cool stuff. I would have dragged this piece into my apartment:

Brain damage. Brain malfunction. Brains in pause. Brain -less...  That's how I fee l right now. Last night we checked in to Dazed & Confused's party @ Jane Hotel Ballroom, in the west village. Open bars always get you so excited, but eventually you still end up paying for the 'free fun'... Damn you hangover!

The picture that I captured yesterday, of the angelic -looking girl wearing the ACNE wedges & Alexander Wang bag, is Hanneli Mustaparta. I hadn't recognized her! Hanneli is a Norwegian model, and a photographer. During fashion week, when she is not walking the catwalk, you can find her taking pictures of stylish people on the streets.

Yes, she is wearing the Acne Atacoma wedges and Alexander Wang's coco duffel bag. Everything a girl could wish for! And not only that... she looks sweet as an angel and has an amazing, natural elegance. Ah!
luckyluckygalPhotos taken by moi, after the Y-3 fashion show. Ps. Look at the first photo, where Yvan, the facehunter documenting a fashion moment. :)
The Y-3 fashion shows are always spectacular... shows! This time the peak of the show wast at the end, when a soccer net dropped down from the ceiling, and model Irina Lazareanu drafted a photographer to play goalie. One by one all the models kicked a soccer ball at the goalie. The grand finale happened, when designer Yohji Yamamoto pulled French soccer player Zinedine Zidane from the front row to play soccer with him. The crowd was cheering the entire time. What a great ending for a show... It just shows, how a little humor and fun is always an amazing quality to have. Specially in the, oh so serious fashion biz!

Pardon the not so sharp images... This was partly due to the lack of light, mostly due for the lack of food = a steady hand!
These few days have been hec-tic, but in an exciting way. I don't know where to begin... but I tell you this: I have great material to show you guys, but I don't want to post it in a hurry, so I'll get more into details later on. Hang in there! Friday night we went to see ERIN WASSON x RVCA fashion show at the Bryant Park tent. After that we hit some after parties in the city... Sharing some drinks with old friends, made the whole day amazing all the way to the end... <3

On Saturday morning the show went on with Lacoste's S/S '10 collection. The vivid, bold colors were a real energy boost, that snapped me out of my jet lag. Prior to that, I had already had two cups of coffee, without any other result than dying my white shirt brown... Yes, I spilled the whole coffee on top of my white shirt. DIY camo pattern is the new thing, I predict...
After the show we hit with the finnish force, Brand Model management's Toni Korpineva and Helsingin Sanomat's Fashion Editor Sami Sykkö, for brunch at cozy Freeman's restaurant. This wonderfully decorated retro-Americana style restaurant is tucked at the end of an alley in the Lower East Side: End of Freemans Alley / Rivington St. I highly recommend you to check out this place!

It was pouring in the morning, but now the weather is nice, clear and fresh. A bit chilly. I woke up at around 6am... because of the jet lag. I'm famous for baaad jet lags that can easily take me a week, sometimes two to get over them. I'm not kidding!
I was happy to wake up from my friend's place who lives in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. This is more deeper into Brooklyn, not in the center of the hipster Bedford area. There's tons of artist lofts in this heavily growing industrial neighborhood... A sweet coffee & bagle place where I got my breakfast this morning.
Since it's fashion week, my focus will be in Fashion only. It's good to start it right in the morning when your brain is alert and blank to suck in all the inspiring information!
