The Ann Demeulmeester ‘Evelyn’ trousers also known as the perfect wide leg trousers will take you through many, many occasions. While in my mind it makes sense to have 2 pairs, one for heels and one for flats, you will agree that the simplicity and  the flawless tailoring make them a must have.Proportion of what you accompany them with is key. Available at Ln-cc.

Platform LV: Suecomma Bonnie Shoes

SuecommaBonnie (1)

Okay readers, I think today should wrap up at least my coverage of our trip to Magic, which is quickly fading in the rearview. The shoes you’re spying here are designed by Korean designer Suecomma Bonnie, who was sharing a booth with Camilla Scovgaard. Both clearly revel in making eye-catching shoes though I’d say Suecomma Bonnie is more about the fancy via a contrasting color and materials story. They’re different and yet I could easily see the same woman wearing both brands. Enjoy more looks from Suecomma Bonnie’s collection on the next page.

WeddingJosephinedelaBaumeZacPosen 540x443 Mark Ronsons Bride Josephine De La Baume Wears Zac Posen

Mark Ronson married model Josephine de la Baume this past weekend. She wore a Zac Posen designed dress, he a cheery, red seersucker suit. Love the decolletage on the dress–very apt given her role as the face of Agent Provocateur.

Must have been a day of mixed emotions for Ronson, who less than two months ago in response to Amy Winehouse’s death Tweeted, “She was my musical soulmate,” adding, “This is one of the saddest days of my life.” Hopefully the marriage provides him a bit of a turning point. As SGP has mentioned to me in times of strife…..time is a beautiful thing.

See Ronson’s suit on the next page.

The latest Land Rover Defender concept to be unveiled at the Frankfurt auto show this month is a thing of beauty. The Snobette version would be gunmetal grey with Lexani  firestar rims.#fierce.Via.

Degree Art Gallery ‘Nailphilia’ Exhibit

LaruicciNailArt SusieBubble Degree Art Gallery Nailphilia Exhibit

We mentioned London’s Degree Art Gallery “Nailphilia” exhibit last week, and we see (with great envy!) that Susie Bubble was able to make a visit. Above is a creation by Laruicci (who worked on Beyonce’s nails for her “Run The World” video) that Bubble snapped while there, among a bunch others you can view here.

On a sort of side note, Bubble shows some photos on display from the exhibit, and mentions how the art form has blown up beyond “ghetto” nail salons. I would be shocked if Bubble meant anything negative by the word ghetto and my guess is she was trying to say it’s gone from being a trend sported by a narrow demographic to one embraced worldwide. But for Americans (which Bubble isn’t) the word does have negative connotations, which speak to a phenomenom Samia was alluding to the other day. How expressions of creativity like nail art, one like many that was born, grown and continues to be nurtured in predominantly black city neighborhoods, are dismissed and even mocked until they are embraced by outside cultures. We like to think nail art is nail art and it looks as eye-popping and amazing on the 16-year old in Flatbush, Brooklyn, as the runway model in Paris. And there is no ghetto style…just forms of creativity that have yet to be interpreted and co-opted by the masses.
