I love the idea of 24 hour shopping. 24 hour anything really, let the people decide when they want to do what they want to do. So Paper Magazine is bringing it to the people of L.A. once again with their “24 Hour Department Store”. Tons of brands from Jeremy Scott to Converse will be posted up from 6 p.m. tonight to 6 p.m. Saturday night. And as an added punch to this 24 hour shopping par-tay, there will be 24 bands/performers keeping the energy up! Go cop some vintage from Screaming Mimi’s or Fruition at 2 a.m. and an ice cream sandwich from Heartschallenger at noon cause you can!

Location: 8873 Sunset Blvd. LA

London emporium Dover Street Market has recently updated its window and added some new spaces featuring Lanvin, Salvatore Ferragamo, Yves Saint Laurent, Henry Holland and Hussein Chalayan. The Ferragamo space showcases 80 years of archive pieces from the Creations Collection by Salvatore Ferragamo - so exciting!

Yves Saint Laurent opens its first ever stand-alone “Edition 24″ space at Dover Street Market in a space designed by the renowned theatrical set designer Michael Howells. New Autumn/Winter ‘08-’09 designs are highlighted in the Lanvin, Henry Holland and Hussein Chayalan spaces. One of the more interesting spaces is One Plus One Eve Democracy - Medical Vintage, a new collaboration space featuring Christian Lacroix Haute Couture and Katerina Jebb’s personal vintage collection. Finally, one of the newest additions to DSM is the jewelry line of Tom Binns. His first collection, “Pearls in Peril” is the first of many collections that will be exclusive to Dover Street Market and I love what I’ve seen. Think tons of pearls layered with even more faux-diamond jewels. It’s a little bit drunken prom queen - but in a good way. Binns won the CFDA Fashion Award for Accessories Designer of the Year in 2006 so I’m excited to see his new collections. See the jewels and photos of the designer spaces after the jump . . .
