Thursday, May 23, 2013 Nasty Gals In The Wild: Last Night A DJ Saved Our Life – Catching Up with Chelsea Leyland
A couple years ago, New York-based English DJ Chelsea Leyland quickly rose the ranks from total neophyte to totally in demand spinstress. Her signature mix of party-provoking tunes—and eye-catching personal style—are renowned for coaxing the notoriously fickle fashion pack out from behind their too-chic fortress and onto the dance floor. Because we could use some extra heavy bass drops in our lives, we made a point of spending the day with Lady Leyland last week in New York. She was kind of enough to tailor make a special playlist just for us—and fill us in on what to wear to our next party.

Monday, May 13, 2013 Guest Edit: Dive In With Part Nouveau
Since we’re constantly searching for vintage treasures and looking to the past for design inspiration, it’s only natural that it was love at first click when we laid eyes on Lilah Ramzi’s blog, Part Nouveau. The fashion history buff explores the cyclical nature of fashion by juxtaposing modern styles with their past incarnations, whether it be ’70s Rudi Gernreich reimagined as a strapped pentagram swimsuit or Guy Bourdin-inspired snaps through Terry Richardson’s lens. As we’re gearing up for some hot fun in the summertime, we asked Lilah to school us on the history of the bikini and a few of our suit’s past lives.
