APC in Boston

I was sad to see that APC had a store in NYC... until I found out that Stel's on Newbury St. sells APC too! So if you live in NYC, I'm jealous. If you live in Boston, rejoice with me! APC is here!

OLIVIER!

PS - I just found out that Olivier Theyskens debuted his collection for Nina Ricci. Really pretty, I'll post some fave pics later.

Free, I mean Out of My Price Range, People

I was browsing the Free People site (they need to send me another catalog soon! I haven't seen their summer stuff!) and found some gorgeous (though wintery) looks (b/c thats whats on sale now. DANG!)

This dress is super cute and spring-ish, and the boots make it a little more rugged but it's not the standard "dress-and-boots" fare. LOVE! Too bad the boots are about $500...

These leggings seem so equestrian (sp?). Not that I've ever ridden a horse, but if I did, this is what I'd wear.

First of all, the background on this picture makes me happy. Secondly, the tights are great (I can't tell if those are bloomer-type things over the tights?) and the boots look cozy and the dress is simple but a great color.

And here's one of the Freja pics I was talking about in the last post but was too lazy to look for:

I love the minimalist background, and her dress, and her ridiculously nice legs.

S/S ads

You know you've been reading too many fashion magazines when, without looking at the brand name, you can tell what designer an ad is for and who the model is in it.

I love the S/S Chloe ads. The completely 60s clothing and interesting makeup makes me so happy. Chanel's ads are cool too, with Freja Beha's immensely long legs making me really jealous... I loved their black/white ads with Daria from fall,too... and Gucci's Russian peasant ads (which of course I love, due to my Russian obsession haha). Balenciaga's, with Coco Rocha, aren't that interesting, but I do love Coco. She's an Irish stepdancer like me and was actually discovered at an Irish dance festival; how great is that??

I also love Sasha Pivovrova's ads for Prada, mainly because of their brightly-colored turbans that she's wearing. I totally want one and would find any excuse to wear, even though people would either ask me to tell their fortunes or give me some spare change...
