Merci! M.I.S.S. Thanks Mitchell & Ness


Merci! M.I.S.S. Thanks Mitchell & Ness for Oakland Raiders beanies

Our friend M.I.S.S. Sondra (Cookie Cutter and “The Sweatpant Diaries”), a designer at Mitchell & Ness saw how much love Liz and I had for the Oakland Raiders when she saw the Mama Winter “Mi Vida Loca” collection.  So, she sent us the real deal licensed Oakland Raiders beanies.  These beanies are awesome - from the giant “Oakland” across the hat to the retro black and white pom pom on top, Liz and I were ecstatic to get these - so much so that we put them on right away!  Merci Sondra!

Mama Clothing F/W 08: “La Vida Loca”


I had the recent pleasure of getting together with Mama and her “locas” to shoot the lookbook for her Holiday collection. Taking it back to a theme she visited in the early days of Mama, her collection entitled “Mi Vida Loca” takes inspiration from classic, west coast Americana style of the lives of L.A. Chola’s depicted in the movie “Mi Vida Loca”. The collection takes us from the Zoot Suit Riots of the 1940’s, to the low rider culture of today.  I always love the research Gabriella puts into her collections. Paying close attention to detail in making sure her collections are true to the theme that inspires her. From the silhouettes of her pieces (can you say Derbay jacket!) to the artists she worked with, Gabriella never disappoints in taking you on a journey and telling a story as if she lived it herself. These are all qualities that come out in her collection every season and I look forward to whats to come! It’s always a pleasure to be the stylist to this star. Welcome to the West Siiiiiiiide!

Princess of The Posse Fall 2008, Available Now!


Princess of the Posse just dropped their Fall 08 collection. I love that they used bodies other than your same old same old t-shirt…bodysuit, totally 80’s off-the-shoulder fleece, fleece hoody dress, and over-sized scoop neck t-shirt….very refreshing to see something a little different.  A small drop of 4 styles shows you dont have to do it HUGE as long as you do it right and keep it coming. Also loving the lips and dark moody feeling in the look book picts. Nice one ladies! Oh and we see you Cubannie Links, luv, luv, luv!!

See it all after the jump!
