forget chiffon and florals, give me zips and leather!

Sure, there are still those long flowy dresses for this spring. And yes, still many florals and sailor suits! However, this spring will be the voice of a modern rock and roll.

Rag and Bone

Rag and Bone not only had great pants and vests, they also had some great striped shirts and geometric printed dresses. 


Rock and Republic



Proenza Schouler
There weren't many things at Proenza Schouler that I didn't like, and thats saying a lot. Sequins, leather, zips, baggy MC Hammer pants, and big shoulders are making a huge comeback from the eighties. And i must say, i really will enjoy it. My style is really gearing more towards a rock and roll vibe, so these spring collections have really gotten me excited.

we <3 you wang!!


Upon the first shows of New York City fashion week was the much anticipated Alexander Wang show. After rocketing with his fall/winter 08 collection, everyone was immediately a fan and curious for what was in store for this spring. Behold, a light version of a punk rock style with an edge. Fantastic! In store for Wang's spring collection: crop tops, long sleeveless hoodies, ripped sweaters, sheer dresses, and splattered garments. Love!!

nachos


haven't posted in a couple of days. i'm not busy at all, however. to tell the complete and honest truth, i've been watching dawson's creek, and i have entirely breezed through the fourth season. i know, kind of pathetic. but once i move to London i will be so much more productive!

my sister was gone for a couple of days, and since she is the main form of entertainment at the moment i will be happy to get off the couch since she's back.

wore this just to a cafe on the Haarlermmestraat. ate some apple pie, nachos, and tea. mmm. perfect for a rainy day.

zipped.


being in europe means not being able to watch the fave tv shows the night they air. and to watch them the next day, online. so this is what we're doing today: gossip girl!

its raining and typical amsterdam weather, and its so cozy! my boyfriends here, back from his first day of classes, passed out on my bed as i write this. he was my photographer today, and he did a great job of it! i've been cleaning and unpacking, only to pack again in the next week for London. oh, the craze!

heres the debut of my zip skirt i got at salvation army. wearing it with a white tee, my gray blazer, and docs. this outfit is kind of a play with the grayscale.
