Everytime I visit 2BD, there’s also something that stops me in my tracks, but this manicure [UPDATE: As a couple of our readers--thanks guys--have pointed out, this is Miu-Miu-inspired, not Prada] they featured was a jaw-dropper.  Watching the way nail art has evolved and grown over the past couple of years has been pretty amazing and definitely more dynamic/fun than other aspects of fashion.

Opening Ceremony’s fall lookbook is online and layering is a key part of the styling. With a mish-mosh of lengths and textures the look remains new bohemian, updated with fabrics like velour, fur and lace. I can’t layer to save my life (especially dichotomous layering when one pairs a flowery summer frock with a fur coat), but I do like the furry shoes, especially the ones featuring peep toes!

Looky-loo who was picked to be featured in this month’s Paper mag feature on stylish bloggers, none other than my partner in crime, SGP! Looking good, ma soeur. (Don’t tell her I’m telling…cuz she’d kill me, but she’s the one featured on the far left.) Check back later this week when we post up images from an upcoming Yana handbags show, which she will be styling. For behind-the-scene images from the shoot, click here.

A look at Prada’s spring/summer 2010 collection, featuring its Canapa bags.  Not exactly sure if the collection is named that or if it refers to the material since canapa translated from italian to english simply means hemp.  Anyway, love the shape as I generally find tote-type bags to be too boxy or rather rectangular.

Thanks to Karl Hab for the send!

Lori Earley’s  paintings mix realism  and a sense of distortion  that allows  her subjects to still look  like women but with a slight  ”other world” quality. And then , there is the young artists  ability  to illustrate emotions  in the eyes of her  subjects  a skill we cannot help but applaud. On the next page a closer look at a few of Lori Earley’s prints and paintings.

Yours truly had honor to be included in PAPER magazine’s May 2010 (Un)socializing” Editorial featuring some of the reigning kings and queens of the web. On the next page  a peek at the backstage ambiance  ,the yellow Diego Dolcini sandals that stole my heart and much more…

Claw knows her stuff when it comes to eyewear, which is why it’s always a strong element in her collections. The latest looks may be her best effort yet (the ones on this page are from the X-Frames collection) and include a collaboration with the super creative Kerin Rose, whose eyewear we have featured on these pages endlessly.

We showed some of the denim looks from the G-Star Raw line, which features actress Liv Tyler as its spokesmodel. Here are some behind-the-scenes looks from the summer ad campaign, shot by Anton Corbijn. From what I can see, we’re definitely getting a look at the more serious side of Liv Tyler, who has always struck me as having a light spirit sort of in the same vein as Kate Hudson.

Don’t know how this Shakuhaki  top went under my radar? The beading and the choice of color  make it flawlessly desirable. Very few available at mycatwalk.
