karlie kloss by hedi slimane for vogue nippon, Feb 2012
i love karlie, and no matter what your reaction to her recent spreads in vogue italia, vogue nippon, and vogue us, she’s fantastic. so when one of my best amigas found herself laid-over in tokyo, and this little ditty landed in my hands, it was love at first sight.

the Tom Ford for OWN Documentary is now online here just in time for the perfect “I refuse to leave my apartment for fear of freezing to death” Sunday evening.
I’m now off to hatch a plan to save enough money to rationalize Tom Ford velvet slippers… monogrammed. duh.

Randomly enough I get my music suggestions from American Vogue. Somehow knowing that it was printed in ink, well in advance of the date it landed in my hands, makes me feel like there must be something enduring about their suggestions. And I’m rarely led astray… (cue collegiate obsession with Vampire Weekend. Not sorry.) So when last month’s issue lauded a 15 year old with a crazy powerful voice I ended up here, her dark and beautiful cover of Bon Iver. And then I blasted it over and over again in my apartment. I suggest you do the same.

On The Street: Ombre Outerwear
Last weekend I spotted these two women on 5th Avenue wearing the most beautiful ombre outerwear. The perfect mix of this season’s Pendleton/”tribal”/fairisle trend and last season’s “girls who had the balls to ombre their hair” (a la Rumi Neely) trend. If it isn’t clear, I LOVE these. The perfect, it’s 55 and sunny in NYC in January and tomorrow it might snow, jacket.
I love the cut of the first one… Unfortunately you can’t see the entire thing but it hit just below the hip, cinched at the waist with a matching tie belt. Very cozy reading next to the fireplace with my J Crew clad boyfriend and a golden retriever vibe… but I digress.
The only problem is… I can’t find one anywhere! J Crew did one last year (sold out)… I’m holding out on Mikkat Market to pop one up any day… but really… Anyone? Where can I find one of these??
