That's So New YorkSo it turns out that I've just had an epiphany and I'm going to go all crazy on community and other stuff like that; notice my casual tone and the voice in my head that's screaming "You only sleep four hours per night, what on earth are your thinking in that monotonous teenage brain of yours!" (All I can say is thank the lord that I'm not rambling on about rainbows and ponies and how hot Robert Pattinson looks in that brand new Tw

Natalie B Coleman

That's So New YorkEarlier this week I was speaking with Dublin, Ireland-based designer Natalie B Coleman and after agreeing to an interview (that of which will I will present to you all mid-week), Natalie was kind enough to send across a selection of images from her Spring/Summer 2012 collection; that of which she has titled All the Jewellery I never Got Pt.2, following on from Autumn/Winter 2011 collection, which you may have guessed followed the same title of All the Jewellery I never Got.

-Never Mind-

That's So New YorkDespite the fact that I currently have an interview with Finnish designer, Daniel Palillo in my mitts waiting for me to press that publish button, I feel that it may have seemed a little odd if I had posted an interview with a designer before introducing you all to that said designer. The reason behind my decision is primarily due to the fact that Daniel Palillo is still what you may consider to be anacquired taste when it comes to the wear ability of a number of his garment

Elizabeth Lau / Spring/Summer 2012

That's So New York - As Elizabeth Lau begins gearing herself up in preparation for the showing of her Spring/Summer 2012 look book video tomorrow (18/09/2011) in London Fashion Week's very own cinema, it seems she got a little too excited and was kind enough to share a premiere of the video via her Facebook page this morning. I can confidentially say that this is certainly yet another promised success for Elizabeth and might have just ... (CONTINUE READING)

Designer / Daniel Palillo

That's So New York - Those of you who follow my Facebook page may recall me mentioning an upcoming interview with Finnish designer, Daniel Palillo; despite the fact that it has taken me more than a respectable amount of time to jot everything up, I do finally have the interview ready for a read. The answers are a tad short, yet Daniel explained at the very beginning of the interview "We in Finland don't talk that much", therefore i'll let him off, as the answers he provided me with were more tha

I'M KOO

That's So New York - Okay, so i'll admit it; I'm obsessed, obsessed with YoungJun Koo. Let me rephrase; I have developed an addiction admiration for the work of blogger, YoungJun Koo and his street style photography blog,
 I'M KOO. As YoungJun is situated in New York, of-course as expected his photography consists of simple snap shots of various trendy personas, first presenting us with an image of the entire outfit, and then focusing in on particular

Dan Monick 'Blind Bargain Bag'

That's So New YorkFrom the title of this post alone, those of you who follow my Facebook page would have guessed that this is the post I gave you a heads up on over the weekend, after receiving my Dan Monick Blind Bargain Bag (Retail Price: $30.00 USD) from Blood Is The New Black, which I have to say I was extremely impressed with. For those of you who are unaware what a Blind Bargain Bag is, let me explain. Blood Is The New Black (the graphic label I have been rambling on about for far too l

Lazy Oaf

That's So New YorkOkay, so it's official, I survived my first day of college; I have to say, I'm not exactly overjoyed. A summary of the day? I walked around the majority of the time on my own as it seemed that everyone, everywhere was reluctant to spark up a conversation with me. I won't point fingers, yet in my opinion it's a little rude to ignore someone when they casually slip out a "Hello" (let me verify that I was the one being ignored; oh, how I wish it was the other way round). I neve

Venice Jewellery

That's So New YorkThe majority of you may have noticed that over the course of the past week or so, I haven't exactly been consistent in regards to my posting schedule; my reason? I have been enjoying the last week or so of my Summer holidays, as I will of-course be starting College this coming Tuesday. The thought that I have now spent almost twelve years of my life in education seems a little absurd, yet is it paying off? I have to say, yes; simply due to the fact that I received my results

'Rookie' by Tavi Gevinson

 (Image Credit: Rookie)

 

That's So New YorkDespite the fact that the majority of you will be aware that Style Rookie blogger, Tavi Gevinson has launched her very own online-magazine, I thought I'd throw around this notification-type post a little, just in-case you have been trapped in a well for the past week or so, or even been living in some sort of cave on the top of a mountain where internet access isn't exactly viable (then again, with the amount of wires and things around nowadays, I thi

Venice Jewellery / Mini's Collection

That's So New YorkDespite the fact that it was just days ago I mentioned Venice Rish of Venice Jewellery and how much I admired the label as a whole, I couldn't help but throw around a handful of additional images from Venice's Mini's collection which I was presented with just recently. There is something about stick figures in love which manages to give me butterfly's inside ...

Viktor Vauthier

8842964691?profile=originalThat's So New York - Photography is sort of a guilty pleasure of mine; therefore when I'm not sifting through a borderline ridiculous amount of online-stores and designer profiles, I tend to spend the majority of my time hunting down a selection of photographers which I can introduce to you all; I even tend to occasionally venture out of my house, and perhaps even my village to wave my camera around a little and snap some images of my own. 

I have the Lazy Oaf AW/11 Women's Look Book to thank for

Blood Is The New Black / Mitra Khayyam

That's So New YorkIt didn't take me too long to hunt down a second fashion industry-related interviewee after my first interview post which featured a a handful of questions by yours truly, followed by a selection of answers courtesy of ICU - IN PARIS.COM Owner/Founder Christan Summers. Despite the fact that the opportunity to sit down and talk with Mitra Khayyam, Owner/Founder of Blood Is The New Black via Skype was not available (due to the fact that Mitra is presumably an extremely busy wo

ICU - IN PARIS.COM / Christan Summers

That's So New YorkThe majority of you may recall mentions of an interview with ICU - IN PARIS.COM Owner/Founder Christan Summers briefly last week; although it may have taken me just over a week to pull myself together and choose an image whilst piecing together the presentation of the interview, I have pulled the rabbit out of the hatand finally thrown placed everything together. Somehow during mine and Christan's conversation, we did manage to go off subject a little, and at a guess we most

Heidi Mottram: Part Two of Two

8842962276?profile=original

That's So New YorkThe majority of you may recall my post which introduced a handful of my favorite products from London, United Kingdom-based Eel Skin bag designer, Heidi Mottram, titled Heidi Mottram: Part One of Two a week or so ago; yes, you may have guessed that this is the second part of that same post, yet instead I thought that I would venture a little more in depth in regards to Heidi's background, which I have to admit triggered various feelings of surprise after a first read. I mean

Cheap Monday; 'Cheap Date' (Re-Blogged)

That's So New YorkI have Susie Bubble (Susanna Lau) of Style Bubble to thank for this post, primarily due to the fact that the majority of you may recall Susie sharing a post titled Cheap Date earlier this week; that of which presented an interview which Susie held with Cheap Monday's Creative Director, Ann Sofie-Back and Orjan Andersson, where she questioned the aesthetic behind their Spring/Summer 2012 show/collection (don't worry, I haven't completely forgotten Fall/Winter 2011; rest assur

Dan Monick

That's So New York - In addition to my most recent hobby which involves me sitting and flicking through pages and pages of online-stores, images, portfolio’s, collections and designer profiles in an attempt to find the next big thing, I have recently come to notice that yet another hobby seems to have begun toppling in; that of which still involves me flicking through pages and pages of images/portfolio’s; in this case, perhaps online-stores too. “What on earth is this hobby?” you may ask; my an

tuktuk

That's So New York - Despite the fact that I'm constantly receiving press releases and emails from press representatives which suggest a potential post, regrettably I have to admit that it is seemingly once in a blue moon that I actually post about the said designer, product or photographer; simply because I seem to enjoy that thrill of being able to scream "look what I have just found!" in addition to "look what someone has just handed to me on a silver platter!" - yes, I have to say that it se

I Love Ugly: Sale!

That's So New York - Admittedly this is more of a "post and dash" notification in addition to a long-winded yet informative essay; not to worry, there is a slight perk to my "what to post when you have a busy schedule" methods  (I know, me with a busy schedule, you wouldn't have thought it, would you?) In regards to this notification, I simply wanted to inform you all that I Love Ugly, a brand which I posted about just two weeks or so ago have just announced a rather dandy sale; I mean, a pair o
