i want: Harlequin Feltworks Scarf

Published by

Interesting treatment on the wool scarf. Jenne Giles of Harlequin Feltworks combines wool and silk to make felt that she uses to create these sculptural scarfs. This would be a great addition to a collarless coat in the winter. You can purchase these scarves online at Jenne’s Etsy shop, Radici.co.uk and The Artful Home. via Notcouture.com images: radici.co.uk and artfulhome.com

i got: Oakley Frogskins Re-release Sunglasses

Oakley Frogskins Re-release Sunglasses I had a pair of Frogskins in 1987, I loved them to death. I thought they were the coolest thing ever. They got scratched and then lost. They came back into my life in 2007 when Oakley decided to bring them back from the dead. I have to admit, I’m loving them to death all over again. Be a part of our history with a new spin on a pop culture classic, the Oakley Frogskin®! At Oakley, we’ve spent decades creating original works of art that reinvent both technology and style. To celebrate the rich history of our brand, we decided to re-release a ground-breaking style that can be traced back more than twenty years to our “garage” company roots.

Frillr has the Runway Video for Louis Vuitton up. I downloaded it and watched it on my Nano one morning going to work. You have to see it, just amazing. You can see the whole collection at Louis Vuitton Spring 2009 Ready-to-Wear Collection on Style.com: Complete Collection
