Friday Flickr Five

4380100038_a9fdc5c7c5

This is one of those weeks where I’m so happy it’s Friday. Headed into a little r&r …. good wine, good food (are you with me?) Not to mention Monday means March and that means winter’s days are numbered.

That said,

On with the Five:

Oh how I love photo #5!

A bit of housekeeping: I’ll be away from the laptop for a couple of days, but rest assured: I watched the live stream of the fall Prada collection + loved it. My hope is to get a couple of fashion posts up before I’m offline, but if not, I’ll address the fashion fabulosity from Milan next week. See you then!

London Fashion Week – Issa

London Fashion Week – Margaret Howell

While we’re talking about shops that need to have a US presence, can we please include Margaret Howell on the short list? I’ve been smitten with the shop for a while, and the fall 2010 collection is glorious. Click over to nymag.com to preview the fall collection, and here to visit the Margaret Howell website.

Loft Design By

The French certainly seem to have luxe basics figured out. Case in point: Loft Design By. I think I would go bananas (and broke) at one of their shops. Aren’t the looks above gorgeous? So stylish; seeming effortless. The perfect place to build a wardrobe. (Must get to Paris, but fingers crossed they’ll make it to the US soon.) Click here to see more from Loft Design By’s latest collection.

Makié Linen Tote

Makié has some fantastic totes available, like this linen tote bag from Tampico. Simple + pretty and perfect for spring marketing and errands. (Can’t believe I didn’t know about their fabulous accessories until now.)

London Fashion Week – simply pretty

London Fashion Week has a decidedly different vibe: the shows seem a bit more theatrical and perhaps riskier? But I’ve found a lot to like. Check out a designer’s full collection by clicking on the photo.
