The Blonds Spring Summer ’13

Even if you are not directly familiar with New York fashion duo Phillipe and David Blond  the chances are you’re familiar with their work. They are the go to designers for stage costumes and a huge list of celebs have donned their creations including, Rihanna, Katy Perry, Nicki Minaj, Christina Aguleria and Cheryl Cole (Who can forget that amazing gold jumpsuit from her a million lights tour!).

 

Having a look through their recent Spring Summer 2013 collection got me very excited, so I thought I’d share. It’s in your face and glamorous while still maintaining a level of cool and never trying too hard. In my book they can do no wrong. You can check out more from them here.

Oh Boy!.. BOY London

Cult brand BOY London has always been popular with the stars and has been around since the 70’s. This year BOY decided to totally re-invent their brand, and what a success  its been! it feels like BOY has just exploded all over the fashion world with stars from Jessie J to Nicki Minaj sporting custom made pieces.

One person who really seems to be championing BOY at the moment is Rihanna, since the first time she was spotted wearing BL shes been wearing it at least once a week. She was head to toe custom made  BL  for an appearance on the Jonathon Ross Show back in March, this appearence alone increased BL sales by a massive 45%!!

I recently put together this casual monochrome look with a BOY Londan Snap back cap (£30), a peace sign vest (€8 from fab in the ilac centre Dublin), black shorts (€15 H&M) and some white flossys (€10 top tickets ibiza).

Check out their new online store www.leavetheboyalone.com for some really great pieces! Im loving BL’s new found popularity, I just hope it doesnt meet the brand will loose its underground/cult style.
Untill Next time,
