Personal Must-Haves for S/S 06

[jssy4eva]

these are the derek lam flats, am i right? they are rather cute

*style

 

[Mettchen]

yes, those are the ones jssy. i really like white ones, they'd be awesome with shorts .. i actually remember seeing some pretty decent knock-offs in black. i think they were nine west ..

I´m wanting a fabulously cut pair of reeeally skinny raw denim jeans that don´t fit too low on the hips, but not too high either. I just figured out that overtly destroyed jeans, as well as loose or any type of undecided cuts don´t flatter me at all - either way, super skinny jeans or wide leg dress pants. Speaking of dress pants, apart from a pair of really floaty ones, I´d want one pair of cigarettes with a flat front, preferably not with a pleat ironed in, as an alternative to jeans.

I´ll probably need a new sweater, preferably with a deep V to allow layering, or even better, a nice cardigan. I´m always stuck wearing that same old Lagerfeld H&M thingy since it is the only cardigan that looks good with my monochrome colours...!

I already received my first pair of cuban heel boots from Acne, they are seriously gorgeous and I´m wearing them almost daily now, I´m afraid it´ll be just as strong as an addiction for me as the skinny jeans...

 

[Tinetush]

me too!!!...

...

i think those are the best shoe of the season!!!...
great with anything andn everything....
cute. sweet and sexy.sassy at the same time...
that's for me!!!..

Yes, to me they are perfection
I like the white ones the best, but actually I really don't care

I would love a good trench coat for spring. I know this is from Fall 2006 Viktor & Rolf, but something like this for spring would be lovely (from style.com

I also love these Tara Subkoff Edrie wedges in red patent leather... and blue patent leather... and the nude suede!!! (Sorry, I couldn't post a picture directly)

 

[EskimoGirl]

headbands, hoodies, some more chain necklaces, more flats (ballet and sandals), a grey chloe edith, ands shorts (if i can find any i really like).

I really wish the Acne shoes were less expensive, I LOVE this season's as well as last's. They're all so nice!

Also, I've got a pair of custom-tailored dark grey dress pants cut like dior votc ones with a slight pleat and a very very small leg opening. Not in the habit of pawning stuff off on the boards but they're between a 29-30" waist and i wear a 31.5" so they don't fit. PM if interested.

[two months off]

I desperately need to go shoe shopping. I need flats, specially, and a few pairs of heels never hurt : )

Also looking for:
- A dress that's NOT boho-ish.
- A men's style waistcoat (having it made)
- Non-denim overalls (also having those made)
- Shorts (longer ones, like bermudas maybe?)
- Tees & tanks.

 

[light_sparkles]

Bubble skirts
Decent pair of shorts
Lots of floral dresses
Flats
gold chain jewelery

I'm going pretty girly this summer

 

[softgrey]

ok...i figured out what is wrong....

everything that i like and have been wearing for many years now...
seems to have become a big...
no... HUGE ...trend...


and so all the quirky little things that used to set me apart...
are now the very things that make me look 'trendy'...
which i CANNOT STAND!!!...

*vests
*cropped pants
*wooden platforms
*pirate/poet/gypsy shirts
*empire waist dresses
*culottes
*boots
*skinny jeans
*pants tucked into boots
*layers
*chunky wooden beads
*pins
*crochet doilies as scarves/vests
*flat sandals
*tunics
*drop waist dresses
*babydoll tops and dresses

the list goes on and on...

**even my black frames have become a nasty TREND......

aaaagh!!!...

***haven't quite figured out the solution yet...
i have an idea though...
...

I can just picture the summer with EVERYONE wearing slouchy shorts..that clean look with a nice tailored top with headband thing..it hasn't even started and I'm sick of it thanks to zara and many other stores

 

[Gunpowder]

I'm looking forward to playing around with variations on the typical skinny jean - grey Sass & Bide and there's a great pair of Paige white jeans.

I'm liking anything Grecian right now, and I still want a pair of gladiator sandals that I was looking for last summer!

And no matter how trendy they get, I always love white and cream flowy, lace tops.

Oh, and peep-toe flats. The black patent Louboutins are my dream, but they fit me so awkwardly. I did end up settling for pale pink Loeffler Randall flats, so that's a plus.

 

[aya80]

Softgrey I understand you so muchl!!!
I have the same problem!! I've been wearing flats for ages, and now it is a huge trand, which I dont like...and many other things that used to set me apart...I didnt want to change my style, but I will have to, since I hate trendy clothes.. One is sure..No white things for me this summer!!!

 

[iAMme]

i need more shorts, skirts, and heels :]

 

[Erin]

Beautiful platforms are at the top of my list...

as are:

knee-skimming skirts...
60's-inspired halter tops..
Bermuda shorts
distressed jean anything

 

[em 692]

softgrey, hope it works out for you! i'm sure it will, you always manage to look great in everything you wear
