MELANIE WARD/BLOUSON NOIR

Famed stylist Melanie Ward has long been a style inspiration to me. She now has a clothing line, Blouson Noir, which is a bit punk, a bit austere, a bit lady - just like her.

Here are the clothes beautifully shot for ID magazine:

Prada Print Collection

I've said that if I had the means I would pretty much always wear Prada and Marni.  Obviously I love prints.  

I was pleased to see that Prada came out with a capsule collection featuring accessories and one style of dress using varying prints.  So simple and sweet.

Actress Carey Mulligan (An Education) is someone who wears a lot of Prada and was seen wearing one of the capsule collection prints at Cannes this year.  She's got a unique style with her Mia Farrow pixie cut and 50's style dresses.
