Goop! She Did it Again!

I always look forward to Gwyneth's "Get" posts on GOOP each Spring, and as always, her picks are flawless! Love her or hate her, there's no denying she's got impeccable taste! Well, ok I am biased because I also like Isabel Marant, Girl by Band of Outsiders, Margiela, DVF, Lanvin, DAY Birger et Mikkelsen, Kain, Sandro, Paul & Joe Sister, Lanvin and Alexander Wang. Hee!

Apart from her gorgeous albeit pricey Spring picks, she also has more affordable options that will help readers replicate the look, for less! Read the full post, HERE!

Girl. by Band of Outsiders

Band of Outsiders had everything. But the Girl.

Well, here's what's out this Spring! Band of Outsiders' new line called, (you guessed it!), Girl.  Dear Scottie (Scott Sternberg, in case you didn't know) told Style.com that, "...after dressing men and tomboys, he just wanted to drape a dress for a woman." Hence, Girl is all about femininity, "Sugar and spice and all things nice" as he puts it. Well, I am liking this look:

And this one too:

Love the whites and the charming styling (gold oxfords! Love!). But I still have space in my heart for Boy.

Over and all, Band of Outsiders are still Insiders in my book! I can totally see me wearing all these, Girl, Boy, whatevs, Scott can do no wrong. 

PS - I wonder what line he's doing next. Girl. Boy. Bakla? Tomboy? Ehehehe, corny!

Let's Hear It For (The) Boy

I love preppy dressing. But I wouldn't take it too literally. I like it with a bit of edge, and coolness to it. That's why Boy by Band of Outsiders is a favorite! Elegant, but hip and very "now", thanks to slimmer fits, and meticulous attention to detail, every piece is just covetable! Read my story on Boy's Spring/Summer 09 Collection here for The Radar.

Boy by Band of Outsiders F/W 2009

The only way for me to get excited about dressing up for Fall/Winter 2009 is if I could get my hands on a whole new wardrobe from Boy by Band of Outsiders. Even just this coat with gold buttons will make me happy happy happy!



But hello, at about $220 for a button down shirt, and $1,500+ for a blazer, what are the chances? But man, the tailoring is impeccable! Every time I am at Barneys, I make sure to visit the Boy section just to say hello to my lovelies!

For F/W 2009, say hello to my new found objects of desire!

That blazer!


Those pants!


That blazer too!


Want that leather jacket!


That dress!


I can't believe I'm saying this, but that fur coat! Not stuffy at all! Very downtown!


Everything in this outfit!


And this outfit! Especially that trench coat!


The shoes, by the way, were designed in collaboration with Manolo Blahnik. Not something I would wear but pretty pretty too huh?!
