Pink Tartan Spring/Summer 2008

(Pink Tartan's 2008 Spring/Summer collection by Toronto-based designer Kimberley Newport-Mimran is absolutely beautiful. I can image myself in any of these outfits. So chic and stylish! (P.S. click on any image for a larger view)).

Love them, want them, need them!

A Canadian Beauty

(Canadian-born Daria Werbowy, an international sensational model, will become the new face of H&M's upcoming high summer ad campaign, Vogue UK reports. H&M's new head of design Ann-Sofie Johansson, who took over after Margareta Van Den Bosch earlier this year said in a statement: "We wanted to create something very colourful and light, with stand-out print... We were inspired by hot holidays in Africa, India, Hawaii and South America; hence ethnic-style prints such as tropical flowers and leaves, ikat designs, dip-dyes and ombre effects."

Aussie/UK Photographers

Blog Surfing

(So last night I accomplished a great technical feat - at least for me - I added a flickr badge! I also surfed a bit and came upon Creative Archive, which led me to Fashion156, the source of the above images taken from their Sheer Issue. Excellent article about how to pull off the sheer look. Creative Archive led me to A Shaded View with a post about Karl Lagerfeld's 10 things he could do without via Jezebel. Really funny. Whew!)
