Stealing the Spotlight: Thieves Fall/Winter '09
 I have spoken about how much I admire the work of Sonja den Elzen for Thieves in the past. The Spring/Summer '09 collection was so perfectly executed, that I didn't expect to ever see a future Thieves collection that I loved as much. Thankfully, I was wrong. Sonja continues to evolve and progress each season, and has given us a collection for Fall/Winter '09 that is daring and bold, but in a very clean and sophisticated way. ... click here to read more 0 comments | Posted on Oct 29 2009, 5:45am Delicate Spiderwebs: Shadowplay
 I am instantly reminded of my Grandmother whenever I see anything yarn related. She was a knitting pro - a skill I wish I'd been open to learning from her. So, I can't help but have a soft spot for Heather Goldberg's yarn and crystal designs for Shadowplay. Heather creates ethereal, one of a kind, delicate knit necklaces adorned with crystals. ... click here to read more 2 comments | Posted on Oct 28 2009, 6:39am The Twenty Ten: A Space in Between
 While I'm not a big fan of the (hair & make-up) styling of the models, the clothing from The Twenty Ten's Season two is amazing.

 It has to be the grey clouds that have been hanging over Berlin for weeks that have me dreaming of adding florals and pretty colours to my otherwise monochromatic wardrobe. And now that I've had a sneak peak at 80%20's new Spring/Summer 2010 collection, winter cannot come and go soon enough. The collection still has all the elements we've come to love and expect from designer CeCe Chin - unique, fashion forward, wearable designs (and of course the much copied hidden wedge heel). This season, CeCe has incorporated a feminine, playful touch with searsucker and Liberty prints. ... click here to read more 1 comment | Posted on Oct 26 2009, 6:01am Adieu: Dressing Up a T-Shirt
 I haven't worn a graphic t-shirt in about 10 years. So, I surprised myself recently when I fell in love with the beautifully illustrated t-shirts from Adieu. This morning, I browsed onto their blog for news of new styles, only to find out that the SS'10 collection is so much more than just t-shirts! So exciting!! ... click here to read more 1 comment | Posted on Oct 22 2009, 6:54am Nadinoo: Not Afraid of Florals
 I tend to shy away from prints - opting instead for solids and texture. But things may change after seeing Nadinoo's sweet, whimsical, print-filled Fall/Winter '09 collection. ... click here to read more 3 comments | Posted on Oct 21 2009, 7:47am Mono: The Depth of Darkness
