The cool girl she had in mind for Fall was the model Charlotte Kemp Muhl, who is recognized equally for her experimental street style and for her relationship with Sean Lennon. The couple, a.k.a. The Ghost of a Saber Tooth Tiger, performed during Minkoff's first runway show for guests including Agyness Deyn and Albert Hammond, Jr.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px;"><br style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px;"><br style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px;">Of note here was a metallic twill bomber with leather sleeves and fox fur at the neck. And to match: tough drainpipe pants with snakeskin patches on the knees. On the other end of the spectrum were super-feminine, sweeping dresses in watercolor patterns with hints of burnout velvet, and slouchy sweaters that just slip off the shoulder. (Minkoff recently added knits to her offerings.) One could picture Lennon's lady rocking racy lace pants with a bodysuit and boyfriend blazer, or a leopard-print silk jumpsuit. But not all of Minkoff's customers are as uninhibited, so there was a swingy trench with an exaggerated collar and leather trim that would bring just the right amount of edge to the table. And let's not forget about the designer's trump card: accessories. Fans can add a mini quilted chain-handle bag or pony-hair stirrup boots to their growing collections.</span><br />

Fall's runways were chock-a-block with exciting—but wearable—jewelry trends that work for summer, too. From statement jewelry that'll liven up a black T-shirt to an earring style that you haven't thought about for awhile, these are the bits and baubles to start adding to your jewelry box. <br />

We like nearly 2D curlicues in a wild color.<br />

Worn over a bikini, under a little denim jacket, and paired with some flatform sandals, it’s low-maintenance and high-impact at its best—the ultimate summer essential! Whether you pick a solid-colored number, a form-fitting option, or something a little more relaxed, the maxi-dress can take your summer style to the max.<br />

The dapper rapper is reportedly working on his own clothing line in the fashion capital of the world.<br />
<span id="more-86978"></span><br />
Mr. West is said to be developing a high-end collection for both men and women, a source close to him tells <em><a href="http://fashion.telegraph.co.uk/columns/olivia-bergin/TMG8552249/Kanye-West-is-busy-working-on-a-fashion-range-in-Paris.html" target="_blank">The Telegraph</a></em>. He has set up shop at a studio in Paris to begin work.<br />
This is not his first foray into fashion. Kanye, a regular fixture at runway shows, scrapped plans for his Pastelle line in 2009 and most recently released a limited collection of <a href="http://www.rap-up.com/2011/05/06/kanye-west-debuts-line-of-scarves/">scarves</a> inspired by the artwork for his latest album <em>My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy</em>.<br />
He is expected to present Céline designer Phoebe Philo with an award at the CFDA Fashion Awards on June 6 and recently performed at the <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/ny_local/uptown/2011/06/02/2011-06-02_for_gil_and_the_music_kin_friends_at_memorial_for_scottheron.html" target="_blank">memorial</a> for legendary poet Gil Scott-Heron.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4989517526604226410-7234694575757778119?l=clauderusselldesigns.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Casey Russellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00783855463849804144noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4989517526604226410.post-65526313311246883122011-06-05T02:09:00.000-07:002011-06-05T02:09:46.598-07:002011-06-05T02:09:46.598-07:00Shake Up Your Summer With Beaded JewelryRemember the many hours of your childhood spent clumsily beading jewelry for your mom? Well, forget about it, because these beaded pieces are taking the medium from juvenile to show-stopping. <strong>Beaded jewelry</strong> is the perfect way to pile on colors and textures, whether you go for a subtle chain of tiny glass beads or an eye-popping pattern. You can pile 'em on your wrist, hang 'em from your ears, or go for an eclectic, summery spin on last year's statement necklaces. Many of these pieces recall a modified tribal aesthetic, with bright colors and small, irregular beads that make high-end feel hand-made. A couple of items on our list are even made in collaboration with local artisans in small villages across the globe. So, put aside those summer camp friendship bracelets, hit up the Internets this weekend and get your fix of brand-new beads! <br />

There’s a big difference between smart money and regular money. I was lucky enough to have two business-savvy math whiz kids as partners. Know your part – if you’re the creative guy then be the creative guy, if you’re the business guy then be that guy. A lot of times people try to wear all the hats and end up doing nothing at all because they take on too many projects and nothing gets finished. Part of growing is delegating. Keep it fun. If you have to call it work then you probably shouldn’t be doing it. Don’t take it so serious, fashion is an expression. It’s an art, it’s a reflection of how you feel, it’s supposed to be fun. We’re not curing cancer, even though that would be nice. Most importantly always stay inspired or else you can get bored very easily. I’m constantly looking for new hobbies and interests to stay inspired. <a href="http://hypebeast.com/2011/05/a-conversation-with-jonas-bevacqua/" style="color: #8b023e; text-decoration: none;">Source</a></div></blockquote><div style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">No official cause of death has been reported, but according to online reports Bevacqua died in his sleep yesterday (May 30) at his home in Laguna Beach, California.</div><div style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><br />

Seriously Hold THIS FAN!!!<strong>Louis Vuitton Chinoiserie Fan</strong><br />
Hold the fan! Really. This Louis Vuitton one. A luxury item like no other, it is the object of my accessory affections today for obvious reasons. Molded in bronze with an intricate lace design and silky strands of tassel, it is a work of art and true collector’s piece for any fashion enthusiast.<br />

We're welcoming everything from dainty, slender options to bracelets that should come with warnings, like to wear sunscreen for tan-line prevention or to be extra-cautious when speaking with your hands. Statement rings or necklaces may be great, but we suggest mixing it up with a little arm candy that takes center stage. Browse through our top picks of the <strong>cuffs</strong> you wish you could get locked up in.<br />

If there's any one thing that instantly adds another dimension to an outfit, it's a belt. Whether you use it to define a roomy dress or loop it around a pair of summer shorts, they're only second to sunglasses in must-have summer accessories. This season, the versatile braided, <strong>woven belts</strong> are really calling out to us—with their lack of pre-placed belt holes, you can wear it as tight as you'd like, or slung loose around your hips for boho, '70s vibe. Behold—braided belts you'll want to work into your summer outfit rotation.<br />

Ahead, our roundup of summer booties—because we can finally have our cake, and eat it, too<br />

We know all too well how many of you feel about <strong>hats</strong> (they can be a tricky purchase, especially online), which is why we put in overtime on combing our sources for styles you'll absolutely love. Yup, from the uber-dramatic floppy version that's oh-so-au courant to a flirty trilby that trumps Royal Wedding party territory. Best of all, that pretty little <strong>summer hat</strong> will protect your even prettier face (rays today, raisins tomorrow, right ladies?). Behold, the top toppers to make the cut!<br />

In my opinon the colors are beautiful and rich but the graphic images are just a little bit too much. I love a graphic image but these are beyond GRAPHIC, can you say Rated R and a little Rated PG21.<br />
