R.I.P Alexander McQueen

Alexander McQueen…you will be deeply missed, forever in our memories, treasured in our hearts and you will live on through your work for centuries to come. We will preserve the name you worked so hard to give meaning to and the incredible works of art that you dreamt up and brought to life over and over again. Rest in peace.

Everyone wants a little piece of wonderland!

Forget Peter Pan Syndrome, the fashion industry has become love sick over another character…Alice in Wonderland is everywhere! Designers all over the world have been commissioned to design collections celebrating Disney’s new 3-D Alice in Wonderland, set to hit theaters this March. Nicholas Kirkwood, Stella McCartney, Tom Binns, OPI, Paul & Joe and many more are releasing limited edition styles inspired by the twisted classic. We’re almost as excited for the jewels as we are for Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter!

We are more than mildly obsessed with Australian design duo Camilla & Marc’s incredible collection of comfy chic clothing…the pair has created a truly unique line of easy to wear pieces that mix downtown cool with uptown glamour…casual never looked so fabulous! We just can’t seem to take our eyes off of the flowing collars, sharp shoulders and heavy hardware that turns C&M jackets in to works of art. Out of this world.  Check out more at Camillaandmarc.com or find their newest styles at Shopbop.com!
