those boots that end on knit pieces that look like legwarmers..
saw them at Marc Jacobs fw06.07 and here they sell them on sale for about 100 euros.. invest time

Polka-dots and stripes, not necesarly together though.

Slouchy floor sweeping skirts or dresses for everyday wear... the marc by marc jacobs f/w 06.07 ones are so lovely... esp in the fabrics chosen and the beautiful navy blue color..... grunge grunge, meets "boho" (i almost cringed when typing boho)... lovely...

Black eyeliner strokes all over the eyelids (marc by mj f/w 06.07) and the rest of the face is almost bare... it had been done a while back at ann dem and probably other shows... very modern...! love it a lot!

These black boots/shoes.... very quirky.... also from marc by mj f/w 06.07

Opaque black tights just can't get enough of them... they go with everything.... !



Thick black "thread" worn as a long necklace..... with no pendants or charms attached to it... very pretty...!

very interesting Kimkhuu..... could you post a pic of the black thread necklace???????

 

[Kimkhuu]

^ yes....! what's fun with these is they are so simple which makes them super easy to make by yourself (buy extra long shoe lace, cut off the plastic ends, tie them together and leave about 8 cm of lace hanging loose after the knot. add a really really tiny ornament the same color as the lace at the end if you feel like it)

Marc by Marc Jacobs F/W 06.07 (these ones have a sort of pendant though)

lately i've been drawn to the striped sweater look

esp. this cloak version:

a longshoreman's best friend and preppy-ish staple comes flavored with a dose of darkness. consider this blue-and-gray striped number the sweater of choice for kids recently expelled from exeter.

I personally love big sunglasses. Maybe I'm on the wagon but I don't care. I also love that mod is back. For the longest time, I have loved Edie SEdgwick, Marianne FAithful... Most of my fav pieces are homemade or altered to look how I want them to.

Zac Posen!!

Who cannot love him? HOnestly! There is a very distinct look about his line but it is just fantastic.

One thing about being "trendy": If you are but you don't want to be, you have to have a sense of humor about yourself.

Oh, and it's a little dorky but I love jewelery with big red hearts on. I have a long gold thin necklace with a big red heart on the end and a little gold nautical anchor. I it.

Sorry for double post, but Kimkhuu I really like that idea for a necklace, using thick thread
