Had to share this clip from the Marc Jacobs handbag collection. Friend and Ttown native, Meggie is the blonde beauty. It was shot at the James hotel in NY - we love the modern minimalism, and dream of lounging by a fire surrounded by a herringbone-tiled wall with copious amounts of champagne.

Wishing you the best, Meggie!

pinky

Pantone announced the color for 2011, and we couldn't be more tickled...especially on a cold, rainy, January day. Pantone 18-2120 Honeysuckle pink is the hue of the year. We've already seen it popping up among tastemakers. From high fashion to interiors, we love a punchy pink pop.

The experts at Pantone explain, “The intensity of this festive reddish pink allures and engages. In fact, this color, not the sweet fragrance of the flower blossoms for which it was named, is what attracts hummingbirds to nectar. Honeysuckle may also bring a wave of nostalgia for its associated delicious scent reminiscent of the carefree days of spring and summer.” Speaking of summer, we're counting down the days until the solstice, and it's exactly 21 weeks until June 21st. Coincidence? We think not!

seedy fashion

Matt Clinton Designs is always on the look out for inspiring floral designs and our most recent obsession hails from the most fashionable city in the world. Paris celebrated nature's finest designs last week when John Galliano debuted Christian Dior's floral-inspired line during the Haute Couture fashion shows. His elegant, thoughtful, drop-dead gorgeous creations gave a whole new meaning to floral design. In addition to watching flowers day and night, through every stage of bloom, Galliano also studied up on Irving Penn's and Nick Knight's photography. Couture is all in the hand-sewn details and we couldn't be more impressed with the fabric to petal transformation. And the shoes!!!

We pulled the image from Style.com – check out a fab article and the rest of the show here.

Beautiful clothing aside, we're wondering what the French fashion house did with the gigantic Parrot Tulips used as runway décor after the show...

adler for seven

Jonathan Adler is one of the top name-brand interior designers in the biz. His hilarious musings, penchant for color and playful themes bring smiles to our ever-natural-toned world. Want to see the proof? Just ask Barbie. He designed her Malibu home. Adler's throw pillows hit cult status a few seasons ago and continue to be one of the hottest accessories in contemporary interior decorating. Word on the street is that he's designing a line of denim for Seven Jeans. We're anxious and curious to see how his pop-arty inspirations will translate into designer denim. Without a doubt there will be at least one look on our wish list.
