Vintage Romance in a Red Coat



Juxtaposing a masculine pixie cut against the feminine flourish of a vintage red coat - hearts!  Plus, the proportions are perfection - just the right amount of flounce for the short skirt. (via Lookbook.nu).

Spiraling Stairwells and Dramatic Dresses



Yes, I heart alliteration.  And the pure beauty of juxtaposed textures.  (via Lookbook.nu).

Occam’s Razor for Fashion

What can I say?  Simplicity wins the day.  The crisp white shirt, black mini, and that trifecta of accessories: the brogues, clutch and headband.  Magnificent.  (via Lookbook.nu)

The Shirt Tuck



What to do if your shirt is too long?  Tuck it in…but only in the front.  Let the rest of the shirt casually drape for a look that embodies that je ne sais quoi.

J Crew Fall 2011



Judicious use of bright color can really make a look.  Just can’t get enough of the robin’s egg blue with the creamy brown - it’s truly inspired.  For a more neutral look, try mixing things up with silhouette and statement accessories.  Who knew that nerd glasses went with rocker gloves?

Those Colors!

So I don’t even want this bag (too logo-ed), but I adore the colors in this photo.  The reds against the green.  The punch of yellow against the indigo denim.  And you just can’t go wrong with a baguette in your bag… [via Tory Burch]

Le sac à main de Julia Roitfeld



The texture, the chain, the way it so elegantly rests atop the glass tabletop.  J’adore ce sac à main.  I love Julia Roitfeld’s taste - and that of her ever so stylish mother Carine.

Lights, Loudness, and LCD Soundsystem



Lights and loudness - what LCD Soundsystem always did best.  

Go listen to Dance Yrself Clean (slow burn intro, exploding at ~3:15), how they opened both this show (Sala Razmatazz Barcelona, Oct 2010) and their funeral concert at MSG, April 2011.
