Once again I am cleaning out my closet and attic for our town’s annual community yard sale. There are a few things that are too wonderful to put in the yard sale pile and this Anthropologie dress is one of them. It is brand new and never worn. It’s too big for me so it is time for this lovely dress to find a new home. I’m even offering free shipping for U.S. buyers. Click here to go to ebay.

Nadinoo’s Spring/Summer 2010 collection is now available online. I love all of the vintage details, peter pan collars, mini lengths and bows. Nadia Izruna’s designs celebrate the lady from eras gone by with timeless silhouettes in silks and cottons from Liberty of London prints.

Dear Creatures Spring 2010

Anissa — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 17:40:10 +0000

Dear Creatures Spring 2010 collection takes inspiration from the vivid and colorful world of Jack Demy’s The Umbrellas of Cherbourg. Visually delightful and unique, the 1964 film musical creates high French drama with popping hues and rich textural design, and Dear Creatures manifests this in chic sartorial form. Spring 2010 evokes the fresh energy of 1960s Paris. Iconic French New Wave films cease to be imaginary with the line’s charming looks, which in a past life could have found their way into the closets of Catherine Deneuve, Anna Karina, and Brigitte Bardot.

Love Story

Love Story is on my top ten list of favorite movies. Other than the plot my favorite part of the movie of course is the wardrobe. Love Story does winter clothing better than any other movie with the coats, wool skirts and brightly colored tights. Here are a few stills.
