Mark Cox in Prada Spring/Summer 2010
To be perfectly honest with you all, this season, I am more in love with Prada’s menswear line than with its womenswear collection. A walk through the brightly-lit store space complete with racks and racks of spring/summer goodies, this feeling just intensifies even more so. If I could, I would have certainly done a grabsweep-and-run, regardless of whether the pieces actually flatter me or not. Well… Yes, sir, yes! I’m crazy! I’m crazy in love!

Lanvin's Carnation Comes Into Bloom
A ball of fabric standing on a pin may not sound exactly like something exciting. However, given the creative treatment by Lanvin’s magnificent menswear designer Lucas Ossendrijver, magic just happens! Available in four different delightful colours – white, navy, grey and plum, Lanvin’s Fabric carnation brooch (£99.00) is simply an amazing accessory to bring an extraordinary sense of softness to a man’s tough look. Beautiful and brilliant at the same time.
Available at Harvey Nichols.

Caroline Brasch Nielsen, Carla Gebhart and Jaquelyn Jablonski in Céline
One sleepy “morning”, my friend woke me up from my most wanted and most needed beauty sleep to tell me to urgently check out Garance Dore’s video of Céline’s show. At first, I was doubtful. I mean was it really that powerful, that worthy to disrupt the most valued activity of my day? Moreover, does it truly live up to all the hypes and expectations? Well… Well… Well… To my surprise, Ms. Philo’s show for Céline was indeed everything of the above description and even more.

VPL's sexy and sporty underwear
With sportswear-inspired body conscious clothing in the spotlight this season, there’s no better time to show off your visible panty line. Perfect for this job is the underwear collection from New York based label VPL. Established by stylist Victoria Bartlett, VPL begs for differ in terms of their philosophy and concept of design by making underwear something no longer suitable to be hidden underneath, but rather, as the acronym of the label suggests, visible. When you see the designs, the reasons would become naturally evident. Obviously, it is stylish and sexy, but what’s more is that it brings out an idiosyncratically sunny and healthy altitude – that is evermore fresh and fascinating. So what are you waiting for? Show off your VPL proud and loud!
Shown in the picture above are VPL’s insertion bra (USD$95.00), Stripe B Bra in Coral (also available in Navy – USD $85.00) and Stripe B Undi in Navy (USD $75.00). Available at Barneys and La Garçonne.

Lanvin's extravagant Stanislas Earring
Add a sense of fun and style to your final look with Lanvin’s adorable Stanislas earrings. Shaped by delicate twigs of shiny brass to form the silhouette of a playful little poster child for endearing cuteness, then, adorned with exquisite crystals and red coral beading; this pair of earrings glows with subtlety, class and extravagant refinement. Yet, its tribal influence creates a remarkably raw touch that makes the entire thing seem primitive in the way that it connects no-time-to-waste city life into the full embrace of Mother Nature. At ~€543.00, this lovely doll-shaped pair, for me, is definitely a timeless piece worth purchasing.

Emilio Pucci's New Nude
Peter Dundas of Emilio Pucci crafted a new sexy curve in the stimulating shade of nude for Spring/Summer 2010. Watch out! Ready or not – here comes his stunning and striking asymmetric cut-out and lace-up swimsuit (USD $645)! Surely, there’s nothing more provocative than this skin-flashing skin-coloured piece. Namely, playing with the perplexing visual effect using those crafty means of his, it is revealing in that distinctively dangerous and delightfully daring way – bringing us excitement of a new height!

Eddie Klint and Jacquelyn Jablonski stares in Selected Spring/Summer 2010 Ad campaign.
Eddie Klint teams up with All American beauty Jacquelyn Jablonski in Selected’s ad campaign this Spring/Summer 2010. Heading the ad campaign for the Copenhagen-based fashion label a second time, Mr. Klint looks confident and cool – like the man we all die to hang out with. The collection shows off an amazing array of easy peasy pieces in neutral shades that look smart and stylish. What I felt is the key to this collection is this sense of serenity, harmony and romance – these elements come together complementarily in a way that felt natural yet luxurious. Inevitably, sweet love is in the air!

Christopher Kane is all dolled up!
Christopher Kane introduces another stunning T-shirt collection for Spring/Summer 2010. As oppose to the iconic gorilla Ts or the equally horrifying atomic T, the Glasgow-born designer surprisingly opts for a different direction this time around – something sweet as honey and just as mesmerizing as a magnet. Featured on his Tees is the hand drawn chubby little face of a cherubic angel, whose gorgeous face is so adorable that we just want to pinch. There is something remarkably special about this figure. Whether it is her glassy eyes, crown of fuzzy hair or her bow-shaped lips, she expresses a sense of sorrow in a poetic way. Available in various colour as well as black and white, this fabulous T-Shirt will surely cause another stir amongst fashionistas all over the world.
Available at Mrs H, The Corner and La Garçonne. Prices start at SEK 2.250,00 at Mrs H.

Estonian model Carmen Kass stars in Lindex Spring/Summer 2010 Ad Campaign
Dreamy clothes in dreamy colours worn by a dreamy heaven body make up for a dreamy ad campaign for Swedish fashion chain Lindex. Under the lens of photographer Jimmy Backius, Estonian model Carmen Kass is the mighty goddess of love in the heavenly set of Lindex Spring/Summer 2010 Ad Campaign. The collection predominantly works with eighties, early nineties and a dose of Bohemian influences in a discreetly clean yet incredibly soft and feminine way. Styled by Marina Kereklidou, Ms. Kass, the heaven-sent modern Venus, radiates a fresh breeze bringing us phenomenally beautiful looks to die for.
