Jean-Charles de CASTELBAJAC A/W 2011

I've got a shop update chock full of surprises for you, but I've been under the weather all weekend. I won't complain about being stuck in bed, though, because it's been the perfect weekend to catch up on all of the runway show highlights I've been aching to see. How tailored, yet playful is is collection? I've only picked twenty of my favorite looks from the Autumn Winter 2011 collection (surprised I chose so much plaid?), but you should really see some of the more spectacular ensembles here. What showmanship, by golly - and where can I find that lovely orange-red shade of lipstick that seems to be ever popular these days? Oh, and how adorable are the 101 Dalmatian novelty print pieces? I'm won over!

Flying Squirrel- young&restless Spring/Summer 2011

Have you been enjoying the NYFW posts that have been making the rounds? I'll be sifting through those photos for weeks, but I wanted to share with you some photos from Singaporean designer, Ashburn Eng's, Spring/Summer 2011 lookbook. Designing under the label young&restless, the line features heavily geometric draping, and a pallet of subtle and calm colors.
