the latest collaboration this spring, thom browne for colette: is a matter of excess. 650euro polo shirts, 1415euro tennis shoes and 1850euro belts:

I am really into lace-up shoes these days, and these Givenchy's are in such a delicate shade of cream. Check out how tiny the laces are (compared to that mega-chunk heel)!

Gorgeous digital Springtime at Akris' recent RTW.

The simplicity of this Ben Sherman Woven really does it for me. I love that it comes with the tie made of the same fabric and color. Simply perfection.

On awesome box design ~ the way the Jurlique Biodynamic Beauty Serum literally unfolds and opens itself, presenting the gorgeous frosted glass bottle to you.... such a nice unboxing experience! See more pics of the line, and scans of the box!

I love Samantha Cole line. A designer based out of London that combines menswear, lots of volume, with feminine accents. Can't wait to see more of this stuff.

Stumbled upon these beautiful red biker gloves by Filippa K and had to have them. Why should girls be the only ones to wear the fun stuff?

From a French Artisan based in Nîmes, limited edition, for women in the move: the "Voyager" pants by Mandarinbillie.

Aline Weber by Greg Kadel for Italian Vogue Oct 2008.I love the harshness of her clothing, hair, and outfits mixed with the soft feminine backgrounds.

Fashion icon, Karl Lagerfeld, discusses his personal art collections, his love of German posters from the 1910s, how he has so much furniture that he’s started giving it as gifts, and how he stays ahead of the curb.

This lovely silver clutch by Versace is the perfect accent to the LBD. And what girl doesn't love a little sparkle with her outfit?

On the cleopatra snake themes that are back: Jean-Michel Cazabat Twister Sandals in Gold and Dark Silver ~ leather snakes that wrap their way up your leg for summer

The pleated detail and sleeves on this shirt dress by Lemonstory turn an otherwise simple silhouette into the base for a chic summer ensemble.

The absolutely gorgeous designs of the 'parashell' are stunning. So delicate and functional.

The Ojon Tawaka "BALL" ~ is basically like a baseball sized dark chocolate ball that you roll all over your body as a body exfoliating treatment ~ see how they package this - as well as how they make it!

The 'Hiding Place' purse pokes fun at our relationship with nature. The pattern on the surface is pretty and appealing but the folds in the fabric reveal a darker side, where spiders and beetles lurk...

This fashionably elegant two-piece from La Perla has a decidedly retro feel (on sale).
