Folk for men

I love these shoes from Shofolk for men.  Actually, all their menswear is great.

Etsy find: Kate Szabone Jewelry

I love these rings from Kate Szabone.  I especially like the rough cut diamond ones with the rose gold.

The accessories thus far…

I have been impressed with a few more shows this fashion week (like Doo.Ri, Jeremy Laing, 3.1 Phillp Lim, and Marc by Marc) but I was especially struck by the accessories by Lizzie Fortunato in the VPL show.

I also really loved the stained glass necklaces in the 3.1 Phillip Lim show.  Not sure who designed them though.

Marc Jacobs SS09

So far this SS09 fashion week Marc Jacobs is the only collection that has captured my attention for more that a split second.  He presented a lovely collection combining metallics, plaids, stripes,and solids- which could have been a mish-mash disaster, but was quite successfully executed.  It was very fun, and was much more visually interesting than his last few collections.  There are some beautiful woven metallic patterns which I loved (see the detail shots).  I felt that the only weakness in the collection were the shoes.

Geode necklaces

Typically I’m not into crystal/geode necklaces, nor am I into the mystical “healing” aspect of them.  I will, however, make an aesthetic exception for these.  Very rad.

Reflector face

I’m going to make my husband wear these when he rides his bike… hehe.  They would surely get drivers to pay attention.

Etsy find: Hippo ring

Is anyone else sick to death of woodland creatures?  Can’t bear to see another squirrel, bird, or deer used as a motif? …Yeah me too.  I think that’s why this ring is so awesome (even better in gold).
