blogging for new york girl style: alexander wang teases spring with edgy pieces

TWITTER CHANGES LIVES. And not just because New York Girl Style tweeted and asked If I'd guest blog for them. I think it's awesome because... well yeah because of that :-)

The post covers my fav pieces from Alexander Wang Spring 2012. Feedback? I'm all ears!

inspiration board: oh so coco rocha + zac posen

Voted #1 on Vogue's 10 Best Dressed list this week!
IT'S REALLY DIFFICULT not to oh.so.love Coco Rocha. I'm going to use the tackiest best word to describer her: energy. She just... has it. And you're just... drawn to her.
AND she was discovered at an Irish dance competition in 2002. Making her the coolest person EVER to emerge from an Irish dancing competition. Ga'head girl.



And surprise surprise, I got distracted!
Coco to Vogue to Zac Posen back to Coco to the entire Zac Posen Fall 2011 RTW Collection:

the new fall 2011 campaign: sasha pivovarova for giorgio armani

THE NEW FALL 2011 Giorgio Armani campaign will feature an ice blonde, red-lipped, glammed out Sasha Pivovarova. I wonder how curly hair would look blonde... does peroxide burn?

The campaign, shot by Mert & Marcus, will run in the upcoming Vogue September Issue. Which is rumored to have newlywed Kate Moss on the cover! A model? On the cover of Vogue US? GASP! #enoughwiththeactressesalready

Stay cool in this heat NYC :-)

lara stone covers vogue paris. swoon.

OH LARA STONE. You've covered Vogue Paris 7 times in 4 years. If I wasn't so turned on, I'd be impressed. JK. I AM impressed. And still turned on.

But I love the 60's influence of this cover. And the full length image + beach + all black attire + retro machines is oddly inspiring. Blending modern and hip with vintage and cooooool. I like it.




I've had a long time #girlcrush on Lara Stone. It began after reading a Vogue US article about her weight battle. Isn't that news for a model!? 

But hers was more about staying true to her size 4 curves, while rocking editorial runways with skinnybitches. I mean, her boobs are huge though. HUGE. Seeeeeee ▼▼

And the androgyny in her Calvin Klein ads is hauntingly sexy.
God, she's like a chameleon alien. Clearly from another planet and can morph into anything, including a man. Sigh, love her.

Giambatistta Valli Fall 2011 Couture

 
After perusing the latest collections shows on Vogue.com (check 'em, you won't be disappointed!), one model continued to stand out to me. Joan.Smalls. Striking? Obviously. But jeez loueeeez, #girlcrush #forreals
 

Alexander Wang Fall/Winter 2011 RTW
And I know I'm going back a few months—it's easy to get sidetracked while watching runway shows, oops 2 hours later—but OH to be at the Alexander Wang Fall/Winter 2011 RTW show... an NYC girl can dream :-) I also love and appreciate the diversity in his shows.

Check out pics here, the full runway show video here, and behind-the-scenes here!

Aaaand still looking...
