Accessory of the Week: Stella McCartney Stilettos

From Stella McCartney's smashing spring 2003 collection come these provocative and down right sexy red patent stiletto pumps that have a clever clear 4" ombre lucite heel. They also have those bewitching & empowering pointy toes that are juxtaposed with ultra-femme clear red side panels that give the shoe a demure d'orsay edge.

What's great about Stella's line, and what keeps addicts coming back for more is the fact that her accessories are notoriously eco/animal friendly yet hyper-cool, unlike most conscious labels out there.

JC/DC Lego Fashion Show Spring 3001



Like Franco Moschino before him, you can always count on Jean Charles de Castelbajac to give the fashion world a powerfully cheeky, irreverent and humurous jolt of energy and he has done it yet again with this sweet collaboration with Lego Group. Check the video out for a quick giggle and a bit of nostalgia and don't miss a bobbed Lego Anna Wintour sitting next to the devil front & center checking out the goods. And check out the cool gear the "models" are wearing, we'd take the human versions any day.

Vogue.com Celebrates the Joy of Collecting 90's Vintage

Ladies, we just had to point out Vogue.com's October Scoop by Hamish Bowles that high-lighted the next big trend in collecting vintage, collecting 80's/90's era pieces from provocative designers who pushed fashion forward like ALAIA, ANN DEMUELEMEESTER, RICK OWENS, YOHJI YAMAMOTO, COMME DES GARCONS, ROMEO GIGLI, MUGLER, MONTANA, PRADA and most importantly, GIANNI VERSACE. All of whom we have been highlighting in our own collection since we started two years ago! To that list we would also like to add our favorites HELMUT LANG, SONIA RYKIEL, NORMA KAMALI and JEAN PAUL-GAULTIER. And there is definitely much more to come in the future.

It was also mentioned that collecting these labels is more cost-effective compared to vintage heavy-hitters like Ossie Clark or Norman Norell. We look forward to this new appreciation of more contemporary pieces since they are frankly much wittier, more cutting-edge, and relevant for today, especially since we have always shyed away from that cliche, too-precious retro-look that many vintage outlets seem to be so fond of.

Check out VagaBondnyc.com, where shipping is always free, and our future-collectibles will always proudly be on display.
