TOUR DE FORCE

After working with Lanvin, Zac Posen and Johnny Loves Rosie, Camille Roman decided it was time to do her own thing-by launching her own range of luxury accessories. Tour de Force "believes in offering feminine and flattering designs by creating innovative sculptural forms using luxurious fabrics and intricate detail" Not only is Camille innovative, and creative-she's also extremely nice! All the more reason to but her accessories! I can't wait to see what she comes up with next! visit her site at http://www.letourdeforce.com/

Samantha Pleet

So basically I'm in love, Samantha Pleet is a designer after my heart. Unlike the big designers heading straight towards target, and H&M; Samantha Pleet is collaborting with none other then Urban Outfitters! The line is entiled Rapscallion, the color palette is darker, the materials are less silky, but the combination between "cupie doll and coquette Pleet brings to every collection is there in spades".

There is Only ONE Project Runway

It comes to no surprise when MTV announced their new reality series (which is basically a spin off of project runway). They are casting a new fashion design reality show, but will obviously be more focus on drama, being as its MTV of course. However, they are looking for more than just a seamstress. Designers, graphic artists, painters, and anyone who is artistically gifted are being asked to send over an email to mtvfashioncastingsbiz@gmail.com.\

Bona Drag

Bona Drag means "nice outfit" a term came about in London during the 60's, and was used mostly by gay culture. The phrase was introduced to Heather Rose Wojner (creator of bonadrag.com) by Morrissey. I find that so creative and interesting! This website is amazing, featuring select vintage pieces to hard to find and independent designers. It's great because you can always count on it having amazing pieces that you can't find in stores...I just love it! www.bonadrag.com check it out!
