Waste Collection from the fabric of Lanvin for H&M Collection

全球熱搶的Lanvin for H&M原來還有下集(或者是外傳), H&M用了系列剩下的布碎, 製成一Waste Collection環保系列, 七彩繽紛的Patchwork衫裙及手袋, 搶眼可愛.  上回買不到Lanvin for H&M, 可有想過買此Waste Collection, to get a piece of it?

向來非常支持環保物料製的服飾, 而近期發現H&M愈來愈多以Organic Cotton甚至是Recycled Polyester製的服飾, 設計更是非常不錯. 值得一讚!

Simply Flattering, Celine SS11

所謂英雄做時勢, 要數當今的時裝界, 非Celine Phoebe Philo莫屬, 將簡約風帶回時裝界瘋靡全球, 令個個都睇佢頭, 所以British Fashion Awards選她為Designer of the Year絕對實至名歸.
久未在香港舉行Fashion Presentation的Celine今季終於在香港舉行Fashion Presentation, 選址在近期的花生騷同Event熱點上環The Space舉行. 一踏進場地就有大幅'Mood Photo'迎賓', 原來今季Phoebe Philo在花生騷派發一本Mood Book, 以相片形成展示新系列的一靈感同主題如Nude等.

服裝系列早已曝光, 個人覺得好民族+禪+Sporty, 特別是那些白色系列同Scarf製成的服飾, 帶點印度民族味同日式禪味. Phoebe Philo當初設計Celine的宗旨就是簡單易穿有型, 今季繼續沒有令大家失望, 品牌PR問有邊幾個Look最鍾意, 此問題確係難答, 因為成個系列'真係好靚女靚好靚...!!!!' simply flattering!

招牌的Cabas, Luggage同Flap Bag新季繼續有多個款式, 全新袋用有Zip Around同Clasp, 設計簡約懷舊, 可說是Flap Bag的延續.

Tru Trussardi Eyewear Launch

剛睇完vogue.co.uk的LVMH主席Bernard Arnault訪問, 說如果John Galliano同Marc Jacobs Swap, John Galliano去Louis Vuitton而Marc Jacobs去Dior, 成件事唔會Work. 這令我想起多年前的Jil Sander同Milan Vukmirovic, 不是Milan的錯, 而是mismatch. 
不過此地不留人自有留人處, Milan Vukmirovic回歸時裝界執掌Trussardi, 令品牌成功鹹魚番生潮起來. 所以之前收到Invitation去其品牌副線Tru Trussardi Eyewear Launch記招, 都有點期望.
 Tru Trussardi的眼鏡系列是沒有人令人失望,  大包圍將現今最Hit的元素集齊一起. 由Rock Style的大黑超, Dandy味的Clubmaster同Wayfarer款式還有懷舊Aviator有點Dita經典設計的黑超款等等都有齊.  品牌以製造皮手套起家, 所以部分款式的眼臂飾以皮革. 個人向來鍾情大黑超款式, 心水推介有Elegant Heavy Metal的六角形設計同貓眼鏡款, 雖然睇落好誇張但戴上面其實都幾易Carry. 今次引入的鏡款全是Asian-fit, 加上物料好輕, 戴上好貼面舒服, 不錯.

Dandy Style Wins!! Cole Haan SS 11

As I said, Thursday, Press Day.  逢星期四都是Event日, 今日就有起碼5個Event舉行. 本人首站是Cole Haan SS11 Press Lunch同 Presentation. 事實上近年走舒適路線的皮鞋品牌設計愈見出色, Cole Haan就是表表者, 乘著近年的Retro同Dandy熱, 今季品牌不只男裝, 連女裝都推出紳士鞋, 其中一款源自男裝系列的Mackenzie Oxford就非常出色, 有白色同啡色拼帆布款, 設計好Slim, 現場個個都讚靚. 聽品牌PR講,  Cole Haan那個型仔懷舊系列除男裝外原來女裝亦有推出, 只是香港一直未有引入, 雖未見過真身, 但品牌不妨考慮入幾款試試反應.
織皮不是Bottega Veneta的專利, Cole Haan亦同樣以織皮聞名, 今季就推出新織法, 以Barrow木桶為靈感變成呈菱格紋的圖案. 手袋都有唔少出色之作, 個人對一款Vintage Valise Jenna Small Shoulder Bag一見鍾情, 是我最鍾意的 Vintage+College+Dandy設計, 可作Clutch用.
至於品牌同Maria Sharapova的誇科系列, 照顧好「大」, 特別是手袋好Oversize, 是四正實用, 但不是我杯茶.

My Top Favourite - Mackenzie Oxford in Chambray/Woodbury, Vintage Valise Jenna Small Shoulder Bag

Turn over a new page, My 2011 Agenda

雖然而家iphone年代傳統的Diary同Agenda好似冇乜用, 但我仍然堅持用手寫Agenda記下Appointment同資料, 一帶抄一次會更加記得, 二來好多時搵資料時比高科技的iphone更容易, 兼且做訪問時冇帶notebook時, 仲可以抄抵訪問資料.

打從中學時己開始用活頁式的Agenda (or filofax), 換上不同大大小小的款式, 近幾年用的是Louis Vuitton的Small Ring Agenda, 更每季都會買番原裝的Refill更換. 每分年度Refill索價$350, 全套連電話薄等更要五百多元, 足夠買一本靚的Diary或其他Agenda, 之不過用過之後就發現佢真係好好用, 設計好細心:
1)紙質好薄但即使用墨水筆寫都唔會過底,
2)Refill內有好多唔同款式的設計, 每疊有全年月曆同分星期的記事紙, 亦附有數頁的間條紙
3)星期部分每日的一格(有有間或空白設計兩種)有足夠空位寫野, 個人鍾意有間設計, 覺得更整齊.
4)每個月之間更會有少少品牌的歷史資料廣告同小知識,有時睇得多啡啡白白的頁紙, 間中見到彩色版面感覺好醒神!
5)附送膠間尺bookmark, 小貼紙, 近年更愈送愈多, 今年更有兩個小物李箱的書籤!

既然一年用足三百幾日, 花幾百蚊買, 除開確係抵!

Enter the Secret Garden, Mulberry SS2011

近幾季每季開季指定動作就是上Club 21的大型Showroom睇新貨, 每次最期待的當然是Mulberry的新系列.  打從多年前的Bayswater開始, 一直都非常喜歡 Mulberry的手袋皮具, 而自從Emma Hill掌舵人設計比以前更繽紛好玩, 每次睇其新系列就有如吃Eye Candy一樣.

品牌每季的主題都非常鮮明, 今次就以非常春日感覺，名作家Frances Hodgson Burnett的經典兒童小說The Secret Garden為主題, 設計夢幻詩意, 服裝系列用上七彩繽紛顏色再加上花花同兔仔圖案(不知是巧合還是有意, 因今年正好是兔年!).  大家最關心的手袋皮具玩春日的Pastel色調, 而繼上季的豹紋後今季品牌轉攻老虎紋, 但感覺上就比上季的豹紋 Subtle一點. 大賣的Alexa繼續推出新款, 有大有細有又有不同顏色同花紋, 其鋒頭絕對就來趕上品牌經典的Bayswater. 今季全新款式Tillie以手挽金屬扣設計, 帶點Alexa的影子亦好有書包Feel, 四四正正長帶側孭款, 易襯好用, 勢必成為另一大熱.
