GivenchyResort2012 385x540 Givenchy Fave Resort 2012 Collection So Far

Definitely my fave resort collection thus far. Super love for everything on this page–the visor, key chain(!!!), the skirt and the coordinated shoes–it’s luxury doing its deftest dance with street, which, something like the Wicked Witch has my heart melting. (Double props for using models of colors other than white.) Via Coutequecoute.

SolarBikini 540x405 Solar Bikini That Can Charge Your Gadgets

Check out this bikini that’s capable of charging your gadgets. Sounds a little gimmicky at first but if you think about it, the beach is the one place where this could come in really handy. And yes you can swim in it. You just have to make sure the port is dry before you plug any devices into it. Extra points for the designer Andrew Schneider being a resident of Brooklyn! Via Ecouterre.

Little Boy B-Boys Getting Down For American Apparel

When I was over gathering details at The Hundreds site for the post I did on its bikini launch, I found this video of mini, well-dressed B-Boys breaking (well, at least one is), as directed by Tony Kelly for American Apparel. According to details accompanying the video the dancers, Jalen Testerman and Lil Demon, are “world renowned.” What ever their credentials may be, they’re also super cute!

AdidasAutumn2011 394x540 Adidas Jackets and Tees Autumn 2011

HighSnobette is giving you a first look at some of Adidas’s offerings for Autumn 2011. Always willing to be a little more creative than its competitors, we found this vintage comic tee the most eye-catching of the bunch, but the other jackets and tees also have a certain swing to them that is special to this brand. The items haven’t landed yet, but eventually they will be sold here. Images courtesy of Adidas.

Lirfons ‘Sound Of Rain’ Jacket

14 June 2011, 20.20 | Posted in Coats & Jackets, Design, Fashion, activewear | No comments »

Highsnobette-Lirfons SOR1

One of the reasons why the Snobs adore independent designers and young labels is because they put it all out there fabulously. This “Sound of Rain Jacket” by the talented  Maldova-based Lirfons we cannot ignore. At first glance the look can be seen as conceptual but on closer inspection the thick activewear zipper and elastic cuff translates into a street sensibility with an avant-garde edge.

Painting the picture of the womem we imagine wearing–it ranges from Snobette style  faves Stella Tenneant, Tilda Swinton, Rihanna  to of course Melody Ehsani. In my dream in which the big brands go all the way with design, there’s a  collaboration with Lirfons , this jacket has a swoosh, a Jumpman  or three stripes somewhere and my heart stops . You can see it in more angles on the flip, and  please take the time to look at many more heart stopping  (Billberry and Black Puma) jackets here.

Highsnobette-Maree crochet one piece3

Every summer I get fixated on  a fashion “thing,” and this summer one of them is crochet. After purchasing a  long knit dress now the hunt for the crochet one piece that can double as a top has started. Aussie designer Lisa Maree ’s one piece  is pretty much perfection. More views on the flip, available  in blue and black at Freepeople.
