DEATH IN JUNE

Okay guys, I know I haven't updated in forever. It's been chilly and raining nonstop here, and I've mostly been hanging out, listening to Current 93 and drinking wine. Even though I just caught the tail-end of a hailstorm, here's hoping July will be a little more inspiring...

HARD AS NAILS

I'm so indebted to Refinery29 for posting some scans from the new issue of Dazed & Confused. Of all the UK magazines I don't already get in the mail, D&C is by far one of the absolute wickedest, and this editorial makes a really good case for just sucking it up and paying for the subscription.

WHEN MIDNIGHT COMES AROUND

HOLIDAY IN CAMBODIA

The whole idea of an entire fashion season dedicated to yachting, running away to Rio, pretending to live in a French Riviera fantasy, etc., really doesn't appeal to me at all. Maybe I've seen one too many sailor-striped maillot bathing suits, but I can't help but feel like a lot of designers just throw out a lot of forgettable pieces for Resort. These killer looks from Phi and Helmut Lang, though, are just about perfect, yacht or no yacht.

The question is, where would you most like to wear these looks from Resort '10? I want to have those buckle shoes by Phi on my feet immediately, right now, the fact that I'm just lying around in bed be damned. AND that slick cutaway coat, thank you.

EXPRESSWAY TO YR SKULL

How crazy awesome are these vintage Daryl K vinyl pants?! Add in the fact that they were previously worn by Kim Gordon, and all proceeds benefit people with autism, and the deal just becomes that much sweeter. I'm thinking pretty much all of these Urban Renewal selections are going to be quickly saved in my eBay watch list.
