We love these vertical-stripe wide-leg pants, and that even the guys wore (faux) fur.

A few people from our home office were lucky enough to attend Copenhagen Fashion Week, and especially loved the Minimarket show. It was full of bold and pastel colors that popped alongside fringe and feathers, paired with wedge boots and hats with very slight brims. Later, we could easily tell who had walked in the show, because they kept their face paint on for the parties!
All hail the British! Those kooky geniuses across the pond have actually invented a vehicle fueled by roasted coffee granules. It's called the Carpuccino, and it runs on an impressive 56 espressos per mile. Sort of like us.

Germans are so good at the future. When it comes to selecting the six figureheads of avant-garde fashion, there's no one we'd turn to faster than Achtung, whose newest issue features just this. Gentlemen, place your bets.

Blood, Sweat & Fears is a live magazine taking place on Carnaby Street from March 17th -21st, showcasing emerging British artists and designers. The project will translate the concept of a magazine from the printed page to a live, interactive event, and will feature artists as diverse as jellymongers, illustrators, musicians and a ‘haute coiffeur’ hairdresser. It sounds pretty rad to me!-Molly Donovan
If you loved these dinosaur bags on the Giles runway than you'll be happy to know they've gone into production and will probably be showing up on the chicest women during fashion week. I could see Julia Frakes of Bunny BISOUS toting one for sure. x - Jen
Was just riding home on the 55 bus when I saw a crowd of very sad looking people gathered outside the McQueen offices. A few minutes later I heard the horrible news that Lee Mcqueen had been found dead in his home. An inspiration to the fashion world and the ultimate createur. He will be sorely missed.
