Undercover Denim Spring / Summer 2010

Denim is Back and in Full Attack this summer. I know you see everyone wearing demin jackets, this is a huge trend for spring/summer2010. Check some of these items out.





& BTW
These looks would look nice with a pair of Givenchy sneakers

I'm obsessed with Gourmet Sneakers =D

Café Habana has expanded to the left coast and to commemorate the occasion, Gourmet has pieced together 24 pairs of these special Quattros.



The dark grey uppers are constructed with 100 percent cotton, which is fitting given the organic- and local-friendly nature of the small Café Habana chain. To contrast the upper, an all white sole has been implemented, though bits of white do appear up top, including on the tongue logo and laces.

I love Vintage Items

My New Favorite Desginer



Coccolily Bioni       
Designer Naana Tennachie Yankey was born in Ghana. Her formative years were spent in the United Kingdom where she attended boarding school and later ventured off to Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. While living in the US, Naana made a dramatic switch from business to fashion, to cultivate her creative spirit. Her longing to be part of the fashion world came to fruition when she apprenticed with Marc Jacobs in New York.
Naana later moved to Montreal to study Fashion Design at Academy of Arts and Design in Montreal, Quebec and then worked under Eve Gravel, before starting to sow the seeds of her own line, Coccolily.
Through her diverse travels and colourful heritage, Naana`s approach to fashion is sensual, edgy and bold. Coccolily is infused by European flare, since Naana loves to work with original haute-couture fabrics from mainly Italian mills. Naana believes that a woman deserves to be draped in luxury; to have her body enhanced with special clothes. Coccolily is a daring yet playful line of couture lounge and eveningwear that brings out the edge and sexuality in every woman.
