COS Boutiques
I came across COS while I was walking around Munich’s town center. I had never heard of the boutique before and was surprised at the mild prices (most everything is under 129 euros), given the quality of the materials used. The bi-level store was choke-full of monochromatic pieces that appeared simple, but had small details … Continue reading “COS Boutiques”
Kate Moss-Inspired Leopard: Snob or Slob?
All the attention Kate Moss has gotten for sporting some gray streaks aside, her looks that seem to consistently draw the most attention involve leopard.

Bess Cape: Snob or Slob?
It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s Batman! No wait it’s just Bess’ Alpaca wool hooded cape (£730)! I’m all about capes, but I don’t like how this one is cut shorter in the front because it makes it look like a superhero costume. Though it’s not a cape, there’s a similar piece to this … Continue reading “Bess Cape: Snob or Slob?”
Gwen Stefani in Jeremy Scott
Remember those old school TVs that would go blank sometimes for “tests” and have color-blocked colors pop-up on on the screen? Doesn’t this Jeremy Scott jacket kind of look like it?? I’m guessing Scott was indeed inspired by that screen because this brightly-colored number that Gwen Stefani was spotted in (pictured above with her son … Continue reading “Gwen Stefani in Jeremy Scott”
