Alexander Wang Dakota Lace Up booties, which are so appealing because they are like a sexy heeled pair of workman boots.

Sydney Zara opening pandemonium

 I'm pretty sure my heart broke as I walked into Zara today. It is FILLED with people and it's 4.40pm on opening day. Zara is no longer the domain of chic overseas travellers. Although, the concession is that everything here is the goods are a mix of the overseas FW collection just past and the new summer collection, so at least I can get the Winter pieces on sale and wear them here.

A Dance For One. A Lover's thing.

Those black lace shorts and the sheerness of everything appeals to the romantic in me. This here is a video from Australian brand Lover to showcase their new collection- they found Amber Scott, from the Australian Ballet, to dance for them. I swear, nothing quite shows off grace and beauty like the long lines from ballet.

Rumi, Colin & the Big Pony

I've been waiting for Rumi of fashiontoast to post this up ever since she first mentioned the video she and boyfriend Colin did for Red #2 from the Ralph Lauren big pony fragrance collection. Such a beautiful video, and I confess I've become quite curious about the photographer taking all those good shots of Rumi. (As an aside: completely jealous of his Leica camera!)

a trip in time

This image of Sasha in the April catalog for Free People sends me straight back to an editorial she did for French Vogue back in 2008, with yet another adorable cub (posted in full here).
