a.r. trapp for jcrew.

I just got home from New York to find an email in my inbox about A.R. Trapp's Troubadour sunglasses made especially for J Crew's Spring/Summer offering. I've never been one to collect shades unless their absolutely worth it, so take this posting as my official stamp of approval. These are totally worthy of my face, but I'm not so sure about the $395 price point. The price by itself is making my palms sweaty and my head ache. That's like buying a new pair of reading glasses WITH my prescription. Should I splurge?

zara.zara.zara.zara.nuevo.

Zara just released ANOTHER look book, this time for their Nuevo line. I just can't get enough of Zara, seriously. I can't wait until they open their online store so I don't have to take random calculated trips to New York in order to shop. Can't.Wait. [facebook]

acne 'pop classics' spring 2010 collection.

I've already expressed my deep distain for all things involving colder weather, so seeing this "lower priced" spring 2010 collection from Acne doesn't make my cabin fever any better. Pop Classics is the first full collection Acne's rolled that's supposedly on the affordable side, but I won't believe that until I see the numbers. Drawing inspiration from Neil Young's album "Harvest Moon", the collection is full of basics, and bold prints. I posted awhile ago the wedged sandals you see in the lookbook and a couple other Acne previews, but those leopard print oxfords are calling my name. Yessssss!
