Not only loving the ruffles but also the color of this jacket. Amazing look.

This is such a stunning photo. I love how one half is dark and the other half is light. He really is an incredible photographer.

If I looked that good in a cape I don't think I'd ever wear a jacket again! Also really love the glasses -- that style is super cute in clear frames too. Would you wear glasses that weren't prescription solely for fashion? I think I would, they're such a great accessory!

Frida Gustavsson. Ginta Lapina. Abbey Lee. Respectively.

I'd love to lie and say it's good to be back, but Vegas was so much fun and Miami was beeaauutiful weather! I even managed a bit of a tan. Philly is seemingly forever rainy and overcast though it's supposed to heat up towards the end of the week -- score! This is Giovanna Battaglia's little sister, Sara (anyone else think they look really really similar??). Like Giovanna, she has an incredible sense of style. The combination of all these different pieces simply works. Yet another win for The Sartorialist.

party up in here!

Jose Gonzalez - Heartbeats 

This is a cover of the original by The Knife (which is also an incredible song that channels pure funk). The photo is from the Sony Bravia commercial with all the bouncy balls covering the streets of San Francisco. I think it was one of the most well-done and memorable commercials that I've ever seen.

Amazing Vogue editorial. Loved all the pics but these were the most visually striking for me. Natalia Vodianova makes a pretty sweet Alice, don't you think? Two more days until Alice in Wonderland opens! I feel like it's going to be ridiculously frightening in 3-D, but I'm also realllyyyy excited...
