“A Love Story,” a video for Spring/Summer ’11 by GANT by Michael Bastian.
Love Michael Bastian, LOVE the styling of this video.  All the class and elegance of an old movie plus the hazy warmth of a wonderful dream.
I’ve watched this about five times now, maybe hoping my dreams tonight will look like this.
Directed by Carl Axel-Wahlstrom.

 Love these photos unearthed by Brooklyn fashion blogger 
Sighs and Whispers taken for Life Magazine from backstage at a Pierre Balmain couture show.  What an amazing snapshot of a bygone, and oh-so-glamorous, era.  
Also interesting to compare to current photos we see from backstage at fashion shows!  Don’t these models seem much older and more decidedly feminine than runway models today?  I feel like these women look very mature and elegant.

Sometimes I come across things that just make my nerdy-designy heart race.  Like these Kate Spade clutches, printed with their own re-imagined vintage book cover designs on silk twill.  Would I actually carry one of these around?  I’m not sure, it could be a little kitschy in real life.  Do I love the concept?  YES.
Love the back cover for Great Expectations…

I posted this pic above of Emmanuelle Alt a while ago, and ever since I’ve noticed that in every single picture I see of her, she looks unbearably cool.  This really isn’t any surprise given that she’s head of Vogue Paris, but I like that she isn’t super-trendy or all dressed up all the time.  Usually just a tshirt or sweater with jeans and a great jacket… just casual, a little rough/tough around the edges, but still very chic, with an effortlessness about the whole thing.  
Anyway, then I saw these pics of her daughter, and I almost died. 
I want one just like her. 
 Cuffed jeans, trench, striped tee, and flats?  Seriously?  Does Emmanuelle dress her or is that just genetically inherited style right there?  Either way, I don’t care, I want to steal her.  She couldn’t get ANY cuter.
