like a boy

My first "look" put up on blogspot. A little menswear inspired, a little 80s. I put this outfit together in about 5 minutes, but is there anyone who has any thoughts on it, comments, critiques? Anybody?

Also, I'm sorry about how crappy that first picture's quality is.

-Shirt: Forever 21
-Jeans: bleached myself, unknown brand
-Bowler hat: Part of an old dance costume :P
-Shoes: Fioni Payless

Supermodel Saturday: Kasia Struss

So I've taken today to talk about one of my favorite professional pretty girls, the beautiful Kasia Struss.

Though she might not rank as high on my list of favorites, as...say, Freja Beha she's really a great model. Kasia was spring 08's catwalk queen, walking 75 shows in four weeks -- that's commendable. She's still in high demand, those sky-high cheekbones and pro walk still winning her shows and shoots. (Did you like that? "Sky-high cheekbones"?)
More recently she's been in Mulberry's fall 09 campaign which I caught for the first time in Elle. Though I have to admit that I've never been a fan of the whole..."avant garde" huge frizz hair concept, it's a nice ad that Kasia of course looks great in along with Irina Kulikova. Shows off the girls' gorgeous legs and maybe, just maybe, the ridiculous hair even works a little with the autumn-y background.

A great model who shares my name. How awesome is that.
That's about it for now. I know it was low on info, and maybe interest too, but if anyone reads this, what do you think? About Kasia, and about the blog?
Thanks, and I'll write again soon.

I got a call from the electric company

September Elle, how I love you.

Leafing through my issue I came across the editorial Electric Company, styled by Christopher Niquet and photographed by Yelena Yemchuk. It's amazing at the least. Madisyn Ritland looks like some ethereal 70's beauty goddess on a trip, showing off the (completely lovely) flowy, gorgeously saturated looks like no one's business...the best thing I've ever seen. She looks so free and stunning, and she's got so much passion.
I think I've got a new favorite.
The looks are as gorgeous as Madisyn...I'm a sucker for 60's/70's inspired stuff so I love the free-flowing chiffons and colors and everything. (especially the beige gown in the fourth photo -- beautiful construction...or lack thereof)

Let's begin, being over serious and writing slightly melodramatically

Hello, blogspot.
I'm a (fledgling) fashion blogger.
My name is Kasia.
I like tea, cats, silk, MGMT, sushi, twinkle lights, tie dye, learning French, The Fratellis, thinness, leather, ballet, frozen yogurt, satin, (film) photography, CSI: Miami, lip balm, and fashion. I like fashion a lot. One could say that I love it. I really, really, really love it.
I do not like sports, ugly clothes, geometry, bad electronica, hot weather, Speidi, hick towns, Hummers, bad grammar, irresponsibility, bad spelling, or Sarah Palin.
I'm after a lookbook invitation...not to seem desperate or anything. But, you know...
Well, blogspot, now that we're acquainted, I think anyone reading this should follow this blog -- don't worry, I'll make a real blog entry in the very near future. One that actually has a focus on fashion. One that's actually a little interesting to read.
