Tim Hamilton Says...

,monster dr dre headphones

>>... well this is pretty much self-explanatory.  This tank which was given out at the Tim Hamilton film screening last night is printed with the sort of mantra that I would completely abused,diddy beats headphones, with a credit card and too many stores...  

Ski Notes

 >> D&G yesterday marked my first Milano show and frankly I surprised myself how much I ended up liking it.  I mean,Beats By Dr.Dre Solo HD, it's unashamedly taking themes of "skiing" (really BIG air quotation marks) and exploiting elements to an OTT point.  OF COURSE nobody is actually going to be taking to the piste wearing this stuff.  It's sort of like if there was a bimbo skit in a film and she's off to go "skiing" (again,monster beats solo headphones, big air quotes), these are the outfits she'd come up with.  And that's actually no bad thing...

Two notes really...I was struck by the reindeer sweaters which made me dig up this photo I snapped of the lovely Lynn Yaeger (she says I dress "cute"... awww gosh...) at the Cushnie et Ochs show in New York.  She was telling Julia Frakes about her collection of reindeer sweaters and took off her coat to reveal her yellow reindeer friends.  She's got quite a collection supposedly.  Will these D&G versions make the cut... perhaps the jumpsuit/onesie might be too much of an ask.  

I on the other hand am all for the onesie.  I'd also like to wear a reindeer Kigu suit over it just to add reindeer on top of reindeer...

Then there are these shorts.   Y'all know how much I'm addicted to my Tao knitted shorts.  I am however loathe to wear them these days as overwearing has caused severe bobbling.  Before I take to knitting myself a pair, I might consider these slightly puffed out cuties which are not entirely knitted but do have knitted cuffs and waistbands (brilliant for indulging in mountains of fondue action no?).  I quite like them in the PU and floral satin fabric.  I've deliberately cut off the lower half though because instead of furry muk luk type boots (which the models were tripping up in so I'm assuming the heel is a little on the high side...),Coach Backpack black, I'm considering these H by Harris quilted leather gaiters from his new collection that was presented on Wednesday as part of the Fashion East Menswear installations.  He's doing his famed quilted jacket and backpack combo in more colours and has also added bits of womenswear too.

Packing in the Back

The sort of backpacks that have been getting a lot of fash-y chit chat involve ones made out of fur that are at risk of engulfing the model (Kanye's fur backpack on Bambi at his show... that said, I still loves it...) and alligator ones that cost the equivalent of a mortgage downpayment yet still manage to incur waiting lists (The Row of course...).  The sort of backpacks that I've personally been in physical contact with however are more modestly priced but no less interesting in my eyes.  It feels redundant explaining the joys and plus points of a decent backpack.  Only the peeps who regularly carry their laptops, a few books,Gucci Hobo Bag, magazines, maybe some groceries and then all the usual handbag-y stuff would understand the aesthetic and practical requirements of a rucksack.  That's hopefully everyone who is reading this... ?!?  

................................................................................................

I spoke of one of the joys of being back at home was that I can once again nick things from Steve.  Turns out his incoming list of stealable things just keeps getting better.  In addition to the no-brainer jumpers and jackets, French and English Confectioners, a small-ish London-based leather goods label have bestowed upon him this vegetable leather and patent rucksack.  F&E are actually on Etsy now whilst they rebuild their website so you can get your hands on this particular rucksack specimen in addition to versions in grey and navy patent.  The very reasonable price of £200 packs a lot of handmade craftsmanship into the rucksack.  Both Steve and I have crammed a lot in and the straps show no sign of weakening and the double stitched seams ensure it's as sturdy as it is pretty.  

................................................................................................

I must confess I haven't actually physically seen Haerfest's (pronounced Harvest) bags but I can be fairly sure that this relatively new New York-based leather goods label run by brothers Tim and Dan Joo are committed to design and craftsmanship.  “Familiar yet unexpected,” underlies their designs and following the qualitative mantra of a lot of young and smart labels these days, Haerfest strive to use quality materials with great attention to detail.  Opening Ceremony have them in two different skins at the moment but for S/S 12, a seep of colour in the form of carmine and navy will be entering the fold.  

................................................................................................

I'll be talking up the rest of Ostwald Helgason's supremely textured and layered S/S 12 collection but this cork and patent backpack definitely deserves a shout out on its own.  Yes, it's 100% real cork, a material the label sourced from Hong Kong and when reinforced with the black patent, it creates a hardwearing texture that looks unexpected as a backpack.  Wait till you see the cork in action as jackets, tees and baseball caps though... looking like a CORKER won't be too difficult where Ostwald Helgason's S/S 12 collection is involved... uh-huh-uh-huh-uh-huh...   

................................................................................................

When I went to go see Simona Citarella's debut shoe collection at her boutique Wok in Milan, where I also incidentally found a different side to the city's fashion beat, I came across Swiss designer Julian Zigerli whose debut menswear collection involves a lot of jacket backpack hybrids, some more noticeable as backpacks than others.  Some of his printed pieces are now available on Far Fetch but the one I picked up was a frighteningly bright highlighter pink number with an inbuilt drawstring rucksack...

Steve can't quite fathom what man would opt for this shade of pink as this is supposedly a menswear piece but I've obviously got no problem with the shade.  Some daring Milano fashion dude's loss is after all my gain and the fit of a sized small jacket is perfect for stuffing a few layers undernath as well as having a roomy rucksack to boot.  I haven't got round to testing the weight resiliance of the piece yet but I reckon one copy of The Gentlewoman, a wallet, my keys and a jumper will fill it up quite nicely.    

For those that wanted to see the results of my visit to Repetto L'Atelier, here they are.  They've been slightly battered by the sand dusty of the Tuileries gardens but the trio of colours which I picked out for the trim, the lace and the shoe upper remains forcefully bright.

Learning to be Encouraging

>> I was meant to post this up yesterday but mountains of beef, goose, turkey, sprouts and roast potatoes got in the way (yes, I did indeed have THREE different kinds of meat...).  It's not much of a pressie but I did say two pairs of Prints Charming tights from the lovely Natalie Marie Willis would be winging their way over to the peeps who came up with some encouraging banners.  I got a flurry of emails and everyone had wise words to impart, so it was tough to choose two, and in the end I went for three instead.  I'd like to thank everyone for entering in their words and really they're all sagely words, but I did have to go for the ones that apply to myself so the three peeps are...

"Deep Breaths"

Laura Hayes of London - This one's short but sweet and for a person like myself who goes into multiple panic attacks a day and frequently requires someone to take me by the shoulders to give me a good shake, telling me to calm the f*** down... I think these two words are quite useful.  

********************************************************************************

"You're not dead. Yet. And at least you're not Amanda Holden: Success, and a genuinely happy smile could still be yours"

Rachel May from Hertfordshire - Ok, so it's WAY too long for a banner unless you intend to hang one across the mirror hall of Versailles but it did make me chuckle.  I don't even particularly dislike Amanda Holden... I just found the idea of her being in an encouraging banner statement quite funny...

********************************************************************************

"There is so much left to learn."

Corrie Vierregger of New York -  Corrie's entry actually did make it to the Learning to Love You More website which in no way swayed the decision for me.  For mediocrities like myself who are consistently dissatisfied with  the amount of knowledge we have, these words particularly resonate with me.  There IS SOOOOOOOOOO much left to learn... and I SHOULD get a bloody move on with learning more...

********************************************************************************

So I've ordered the three pairs of tights for Laura, Rachel and Corrie and they should be with you asap.  Thanks everyone for entering though and Natalie's Etsy shop is open for business should you still be hankering for some printed tights... oh and of course, it goes without saying... hope everybody had a good Christmas and all that...
