The comforting...I mean slightly disturbing...that is to say...it's at once reassuring and disconcerting that in Ralph Lauren time the years merge into one seamless blob...vintage RL designs and those of current seasons blend seamlessly together...so that you're left wondering if time has stood still... I was reminded of this manifestation of the space/time continuum when I flipped through Barney's latest Co-Op catalog and spotted a Navajo blanket jacket...almost identical to the skirts sitting in my closet (thanks to my mother's fascination during the 80's with all things Lauren)...and a gentle push to take the blasted things out every once in a while and actually wear them... |

Hey Heb, did you see the news? Isabel Marant is coming to Soho next year!

It will be yet another store I can only dream of having the money to buy something from. Until then, I'll just look through the racks...
gemmifer - I heard...was excited...then saw the pictures from her S/S '10 collection...pink pom-pom earrings do not form a part of the Marant vibe that I know and love...
