The Love Thing

I'll be the first to admit that I'm a media whore.  I love commercials and the great music in which they are infused.  Hell, even Gaga's Telephone video made me want to buy a Polaroid and buy Miracle Whip.  This video came from one of Jason's contacts, and when he showed me, I was hooked.  It's an ad for Conde Nast's new UK rag mag, "Love", that features two of my fave models of the moment, Agyness Deyn and Alessandra Ambrosio.  They are styled in head-to-toe Prada (thank you Miuccia!)  Be warned, this video is NSFW, due to Britain's fabulous attitude towards nudity.

Prada's Classic Edge

I have always admired Miuccia Prada and what this former pantomime has done with her grandfather's leather goods brand, especially her fabulous shoes for her women's pret-a-porter.  Her menswear line, though, in season's past, has been very utilitarian and minimal, and sometimes androgynous - not what I personally desire in a menswear.  For Fall 2010, however, Miuccia has gone back to the basics with a bit of the Prada edge.  The camouflage trench coat is one of my favorite pieces in this collection.  There is a slight 1970s feel (a decade of fashion I love), with clean, tailored items that can be mixed and matched and stay relevent in your closet for many seasons to come.
