This Jumpsuit Trend Has Real Staying Power...

Yves Saint Laurent
I'm telling you, this jumpsuit trend is holding stronger than I ever thought it would. I remember not liking this look at all when it first emerged, but it slowly started to grow on me, and now I can really appreciate the whole vibe of it.

For Spring, the question on designers’ minds was: What would Yves Saint Laurent do? Everyone from Marc Jacobs to Gucci’s Frida Giannini took pages straight from the late great’s playbook, showing seventies-inspired designs. There was no lack of jumpsuits on the runways, but in contrast to recent seasons, these were more Studio 54 dance floor than airplane hangar or mechanics’ garage.

Sorry, But I DO NOT Approve of Angelina Jolie's Dress.

Attached gloves to the sleeve? WTH is that? And why? And is the dress velvet? I don't know who's on Jolie's glam squad (does she even use a glam squad?) but if she does, this (Versace? Really? Wow) dress should have been BATTED DOWN. With the swiftness. And like I've said before about Vanessa Bryant's too tight dress in the chi chi area, the answer to this weirded out dress that Angelina wore to the Berlin movie premiere of "The Tourist" should have been NO. Period. This dress is just not the look hon.

beachcombing collections from quercus design on etsy

I am obsessed with multiples of things, and collections (that’s why I keep making more and more ceramics), and was immediately drawn to this work by Quercus Design. The serenity of the found objects arranged in a grid is soothing to me, like applying order on a chaotic world.

The above images can be purchased from Quercus Design’s Etsy shop.

These are the two most beautiful photos I have seen in a long time!
