geekiviews: Second Clothing Yoga Jean

Yoga Jeans from Second Clothing. They came out last year amid the yoga buzz but somehow I missed hearing about them. It’s only after I received an email from Jennifer from Mudsharkstreetwear.com that I became intrigued. I was looking for another pair of dark skinny denim for the fall to wear with boots. This is what the website says: Jeans are not generally associated with perfect comfort. They tend to impede the large movements of the body and restrain and ususual stretching.

i want: Jonathan Saunders silk skirt and shirt

Karl’s gotta brand new bag.

The Kaiser is coming out with a new bag line and I kinda like some. The line won’t be available until Spring 2009. My love for Karl Largerfeld has grown 10 fold since reading The Beautiful Fall (see side bar for amazon link). Amazing book which really give you an insight into how brilliant this man is. via Karl Lagerfeld’s New Bag Line Is Futuristic! — The Cut: New York Magazine’s Fashion Blog images: same source

Miu Miu Fall Winter 2008 – 2009 Ad Campaign
