Telepathe: So Fine=So Good

We love Brooklyn based Telepathe's single "So Fine" so much we just had to share it with you. We love the video with it's sentimental John Hughes feel, it's just great new music.

Accessory of the Week: 80's Dior Wide Belt

From the 80's comes this classic CHRISTIAN DIOR bottle green wide leather belt that hits all of today's trends dead-on with its somber colorway and waist-cinching construction. After all, everyone needs a wide belt in their wardrobe to play with proportions and ultimately highlight the waist. And it's rather refreshing that this one is not black.

Style Watch: Lake Bell

We have to admit that while we honestly may not know too much about actress Lake Bell's work, we do admire her style and look. She's a New york City girl through & through and it always shows on the red carpet with her slick, strict, clean confident style that's always a bit body-con with a stylized flourish. We also love her strong brows, something we are always attracted to! Weather she's clad in our favorites from Balmain, Balenciaga, Valli, or Dior, she's always a shining example of a VagaBond Nyc kind of girl.

Label Moment: Paule Ka

One label we truly admire but just can't ever seem to get our hands on is French label Paule Ka, by Serge Cajfinger. Elusiveness withstanding, the label offers chic sportswear that stands on it's own urban warrior territory firmly. We admire the fact that it's trying to create goods that are innovative in design, with an avant-garde bent, somewhat like Prada, clothing you can't find anywhere, yet it's grounded, it's not kooky, or loud or gimmicky. Simply elegant, beautifully made and perfect for a sophisticated, restrained urbanite, this collection astounds us with slick ladylike pieces that don't sacrifice the cool factor over old-school luxury norms. And it's always tricked out with unique accessories from lucite bowlers to peaked shoulders and seven inch bubble platforms,  all with the perfect dash of  hardcore provocativeness. After all, not every city girl needs to be clad in body-con and layered in ripped tights to look cool, now she has the chance to look sophisticated in a fresh, modern way.

Liberty Prints the Westwood Way

As you would expect from the pineal eye of VIVIENNE WESTWOOD, comes this fantastic update to the classic, ultra-femme floral blouse. First of all, it's naive country floral print in rich khaki isn't what you'd expect from Liberty, the purveyor's of ultra-prim fabrics in ultra-girlie pastels. Then there's the deep, soothing maroon, strong, perfect for fall and far from powdery. It also boasts a beautifully cut, abbreviated, squared collar.
