Window Shopping. Vivienne Westwood Comes to LA




















I've worn Vivienne Westwood clothes since the early 80's, when I was in full fledged World's End mode living in London. Westwood is one of fashion design's true visionaries, and is on the short list of people I'd love to meet someday. One of my favorite things is a pearl orb necklace that I still wear from time to time.
On a recent trip to Japan my make-up artist surprised me with a pair of Vivienne Westwood gloves as a gift and I was as giddy as a schoolgirl.

I'm so excited she's opening a flagship boutique in Los Angeles. I had to pull my car over and snap a pic.

October VOGUE. 70's meets the 30's Glam

























































































































































Though I get the majority of content online, there is still something that can't be replaced by browsing the pages of a favorite magazine, this probably goes back to my childhood when my Mom bought fashion magazines.
I picked up October's domestic VOGUE and instantly fell in love with this layout titled 'Society Slouch' featuring Chanel Iman, Jourdann Dunn and Caroline Trentini. Fashion from the 70's and 30's are among my favorites in style.
Though the looks pictured feature a range of designers from Calvin Klein Collection, Celine, Donna Karan, Maison Martin Margiela to name a few, I think these looks can be achieved by also blending vintage pieces with contemporary.
