I am YEARNING for these Isabell Marant Renell jeans.  Like, cheesecake craving on period day number 4.  Too bad they are sold out on Net-a-Porter (and a little steep at $660) because that is absolute leg love.   Behold, our friends over at A pair and a spare have Martha Stewart-style'd it up and created a DIY version.

NYFW; the streetstyle

The bags that haven't been released (and the one's that cost more than 2 month's rent), resort that was so hard to get hands on ya had to get your best gay to sleep with someone somewhat im-port-tante, fur for miles and insiders so chic it hurts the soul.  It's all about the attendee's streetstyle.  XX

Mary Katrantzou for Topshop




Lampshades and epilepsy, OH MY.  Cannot wait to see exactly what MK has in store for AW12 next week in London, but a little spring and summer taste (at a fraction of the price) can be found at Topshop.  Good luck getting your hands on this calibo because it will most definitely go like Versace for HM hotcakes.  xx

stella's spring and summer












I'm wearing pajamas.  Just kidding.  Casual Friday just became pretty sweet with clashing waves of blue, embroidered ease and laid back patterns.  As the designer for the 2012 British Olympic team, (those butcheys are going to be stylin') McCartney combined swirls and sports and made it work.
