Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction carries a spot-on collection of those classic, low-key styles, so many of us love. You'll find: a snug-fitting toggle coat, the perfect leather satchel, easy tops sewn from plaid and pretty high waisted skirts that look like something Rachel from Glee might sport.
I love the balance of the utilitarian twill fabric with the wee bit of gold in these two pieces. Just enough sparkle for a natural girl like me.
Via Lucky Magazine ( a great issue this month!).
i love the details in that last dress!
happy holidays :)

wow, we are right on the same wavelength! I am currently trimming a taupe twill blouse with gold tussah silk cocoons - the vestige of the cocoon after the worm hatches is like lace. Love these looks!

I really love that skirt!

I'm totally digging the asymmetry of the last piece -- it's just beautiful and quite different from other things I've seen before.

Liking the basic khaki threaded with gold.
