Things I Have: Striped Sweater

So no, this is not me wearing the sweater... but I did buy it and I love it. The stripes on the lower part are great and then the big blocks of red at the bottom (and on the sleeves) add some nice color. Reminds me of a very French sailor's sweater (minus the buttons on the shoulder).

Ordered it from a new label called Company of We. They sent out a promotional coupon + I took advantage of it!

Things I Want: Moncler Gamme Bleu

I've posted before about this collab between Thom Browne (who I LOVE) and Moncler. Well here's a piece for Fall '09 that I think is rockin' and rollin' and stays true to both identities.

Great vest, great buttons, love the high collar. I am in.

Things I Want: Bike from Urban Outfitters

I'm on a cycling kick... so many great bike collabs are coming out and I feel like I see more and more cyclists around L.A. Yeah! Now from Urban Outfitters, a fixie (one-speed) that you can customize yourself, all for a great price.

I actually like the gray color shown here -- and it would be fun with some colored wheels (or a yellow seat).

Things I Love: Lacroix Couture

Well there has been a lot of talk since Christian Lacroix filed the French equivalent of bankruptcy a few weeks ago... and speculation if he would show a Couture collection this week.

Let's just say he did it... with gusto! Amazing amazing amazing.... in fact there have been a lot of incredible pieces shown so far this week, so expect more posts to come. But I had to kick it off with this incroyable photo:
