Sofia Coppola: wedding style

One of my favorite style icons got married over the weekend. She chose Azzedine Alaia to design her wedding dress (as well as daughter Romy's), a surprising choice considering her long-running friendship and many fashion collaborations with Marc Jacobs. Have to say though, the lavender dress is beautiful and I love that she went the non-traditional route and embraced a "party-dress" silhouette with the short, poufy skirt. The black ankle strap sandals she paired it with are simple yet perfectly complement the girliness of the dress.


She had some amazing beach and shopping looks as well. Love the black strapless one-piece and the white cross-body handbag, and how she wears it with a white dress.

paper bag clutch

I saw this bag a few weeks ago over on Simple Blueprint. It's by LA-based designer Marie Turnor and constructed of super soft leather with a magnetic closure. It strikes me as something a little bit kitschy but chic at the same time. It's called "the picnic" and also comes in a few metallic colors and a lipstick red.


The picnic is only $175 or there is a larger more traditionally-shaped clutch style called "the dinner" that is $240. All are available to buy on Marie Turnor's website.

Dixie Boots - Fall Isabel Marant

Isabel Marant's new Dixie boot is a low-heel version of the incessantly coveted Dicker boots. To me, they are more like a beatle boot and less of a cowboy boot. Regardless, they are at the very top of my fall wishlist. The taupe is pictured but they also come in black. I'm sure all the usual places will have them: Stuart & Wright in Brooklyn, Creatures of Comfort and of course Odessa in Portland. At $615, they are not for the faint of heart.

Sale Dress - Stuart & Wright

Stuart & Wright in Brooklyn has this Isabel Marant "rush" dress on sale (50% off, i think?). Only one left, size 0. I've been on the fence for a few days myself, but for sure a good deal on a print that will no doubt be a collector's item.

Kate Moss and her dream

I've got to give it to Kate. After Johnny and all the others, she really waited for the right one. And as much as I loved her Galliano wedding gown (the beeding, the fringe, the veil), this vintage dress that she wore to her "pre-wedding" fete is so unique and ultimately exemplifies exactly what makes her Kate Moss. Congrats, Mr and Mrs Hince.

Somewhere over the Rainbow

Absolutely dying over the new fall colors for the No.6 clog boots. I wish my closet looked like this. Since I can only pick one color (or two..or three), I would have to say the rust is my favorite, followed by the honey and the ash grey. Really though, they are all nice. I wonder if No.6 will be keeping the lace-up boot from Fall 2010 as well? I'd love for them to do an ankle height version of the lace-up boot. And in forest green leather maybe. That would be my dream...
