TREND: Lace Glasses

Posted in By Em, TREND by styleinspades on June 27, 2010
Lady Gaga recently wore some interesting lace glasses in her Alejandro music video:

And…
So did these three models at the Louis Vuitton Fall 2010 show:

Coincidence?
Yeah, probably.

TREND: That Louis Vuitton Gets Around

Posted in By Em, TREND by styleinspades on April 6, 2010
Louis Vuitton is hitting the magazines…hard. Clémence Poésy wears a Louis Vuitton skirt on the cover of Tatler Magazine. Meanwhile, Amanda Seyfried and Leighton Meester both wear the same neon yellow dress for Glamour. Amanda for Glamour UK and Leighton for the US version.

Whatever, I don’t mind the LV OD, I love that skirt and insanely bright dress. And now, because I can…more Leighton:

LOVE: Louis Vuitton Fall 2010 RTW

Posted in By Em, LOVE by styleinspades on March 11, 2010
It was impossible for me to pick my “Top Four.” Well, not impossible, but I felt it would be cruel to leave out so many beautiful Vuitton looks:

It came into style about three years ago, but the little black belt does not seem to be going away anytime soon. Thankfully, I have no problem with that–I love it!

LOVE: Marc Jacobs Photographed by Terry Richardson

Terry Richardson photo number five of eight for TR Week! Yes, there are seven days in a week…but why wouldn’t you want an extra?

WTF PHOTO: Crimes of Fashion- Lara Stone is Dying for Louis Vuitton

Posted in By Em, WTF PHOTO by styleinspades on February 5, 2010
Lara Stone is dying for Louis Vuitton. A.K.A Lara Stone looks dead in the Louis Vuitton SS 10 ad campaign. Creative director, Marc Jacobs, described the ads as “images that are desirable, colorful, whimsical, and of course, luxurious.” I love you Marc, but I have no idea what you’re talking about.

I feel like I’ve accidently stumbled upon a crime scene when I look at this. The birds don’t exactly help either. White doves are well known as a symbols of peace. R.I.P…

..

Am I just a completely morbid person, or do you see it too?

Posted in By Em, TREND by styleinspades on February 4, 2010
Oh lawd please no.

Alexa Chung is on the cover of British Vogue for March. OK…great, Alexa Chung…woo hoo! Can we talk about what is going on with her right foot, please?!

We all knew this day was coming. Chanel & Louis Vuitton both featured clogs in their spring collections. But…do we actually have to wear them?

More proof that nude is the hot color for Spring. For details on BOTH of Kristen’s Vanity Fair looks, click here!

Is it just me or is Kristen Stewart channeling Sofia Coppola from the Louis Vuitton ’08 ad campaign?

FYI, Mia Wasikowska (fourth from right in the above Vanity Fair photo) will also appear on the March cover of Teen Vogue.  Where are they taking these photos that it’s so beautiful & green outside? Definitely not New York-it’s snowing right now.

Can’t wait to get the new Vanity Fair! I think these new photos are going to be my favorite Lebovitzs.
Wait, scratch that, this will always be my favorite:

LOVE: Golden Globes Fashion

Posted in By Em, LOVE by styleinspades on January 18, 2010
It’s pretty standard to create a fashion winners & fashion losers list the day after an award show. So I’ve made one of my own.
.
However, I am only listing those I think were the best dressed of the night. Mind you, I’m not doing this to be nice. I mean… if I thought someone looked bad, their hideous pictures would just uglify my blog, no?.

Ugh PDA…but this is a great shot of the Versace Atelier dress Drew Barrymore wore

.

I also like the contrast between her tattoo & overall Hollywood glamour look

.

So those were my favorites from last night’s red carpet.

.

The Golden Globes can be amusing…it’s like an awkward, tacky prom for celebrities (I’m talking to you Diane).  The fashion usually improves as the night goes on and celebrities change into their after party outfits. The dresses are usually shorter, more modern & less Kentucky Derby.

WANT: Girl with Kaleidoscope Eyes (Guggenheim Glasses)

Posted in By Em, WANT by styleinspades on January 12, 2010
Today I was over at my Aunt’s apartment. Whenever I visit her she always has something new and interesting to show me like these Peggy Guggenheim sunglasses:

Harper’s Bazaar did a Peggy inspired shoot not too long ago:

Here are some deets:

^We were also looking at her gorgeous Vuitton scarf (actually red on the flip side)

So, if you’d like to buy a pair for yourself, you can go to Venice. Or, find them on the Guggenheim Museum website, along with a Gugg jewelry collection by Harry Winston (which is oh so affordable starting at $21,000). Yep.

.

.

And / Or… maybe if you’re lucky and they’re still selling them, you’ll get these cheap sick silver wooden ones with kaleidoscopic eyes:
