A home with personality

Loving this bench and the floor.
Me encanta este banco y este suelo.

And white walls and flowers.
Y las paredes blancas y las flores.

A small Im-at-the-beach detail.
Un pequeño detalle que te recuerde una atmósfera playera.

And more flowers and books.
Y más libros y flores.

I want a home with this exact same personality.
Quiero una casa que tenga exactamente la personalidad de esta.

Greenish Adirondack desk

A bit of inspiration for your artistic desks.

We are in Upstate NY, in the Adirondack region and its so beautiful, my Barcelona seems really far away right now.



Un poco de inspiración artística para vuestros escritorios.

Estamos al norte de NY, en la Región del parque natural Adirondack, en casa de unos amigos. Y es tan bonito, que mi Barcelona parece especialmente lejana ahora mismo.

Green with envy

Lovely flat for a Monday morning, dont you think?

How beautiful are those wood details on the ceiling and that olive green colored walls?

And have you paid attention to the old fireplace?



Un apartamento bonito para empezar este lunes, qué os parece?

ME parecen una maravilla los detalles en madera del techo y las paredes de verde oliva, por no hablar de la chimenea antigua de la última foto!

New York Fashion Week: Betsey Johnson, Carolina Herrera, Christian Cota, Charlotte Ronson

Betsey Johnson has never really been my cup of tea, though I did admire her insistence on youthfulness and fun. I mean, really -- can you call a lady who does cartwheels and splits at the end of her shows uptight? I definitely enjoyed this collection. Even though it was a mishmash of styles, I think all of the patterns and silhouettes showed scream "Betsey". Favorites of mine: The studded bustier, the half colored-in florals, the sheer trench, and all the ruffles and lace!

Another designer who's never really been my cup of tea. This time around, however, I was pleasantly surprised. Carolina Herrera plus a shot of graphic direction are a match made in heaven. I particularly liked all the uses for the short stripes shown. Vertical patterns, blocks of sheer/opaque, the belts, as piping... it showed up nearly everywhere, and I thoroughly approve.

Christian Cota is a perennial favorite here at Frock Yeah. I don't really have much to say that I haven't said about Cota before, but again: I love the silhouettes, the color palette, the presentation. The only thing I didn't really like this time around is the shoes.

I should have titled this post "People I Don't Usually Like, and One I'm Obsessed With". Ronson is yet another designer who I never really liked (I only warmed up to her rather recently), but for me, this collection says she's moving in the right direction. Not my favorite from her, but it's all right.

New York Fashion Week: Adam, Altuzarra, Band of Outsiders and Charlotte Ronson

It only comes but twice a year...

Mmm, I like this! The first half was weirdly frothy and over-the-top girly, with giant pink flowers and lavender (the color) strewn everywhere. Then the darker florals came, bringing with them a mishmash of... I'm not entirely sure what. I was a little confused as to where the band jacket fit in, to be honest. However, I still appreciate the rest of it. Moral of the story? I guess florals aren't going anywhere. And maybe this spring, instead of leather jackets with maxis, it'll be band/military jackets? I just might be okay with that.

This collection by Altuzarra reminds me of someone/something, but I just can't place it... is it Alexander Wang? I'm sure comparisons will be drawn between the two, since there were quite a few open knits.

One of my absolute favorites so far! I like the Amish meets tennis separates look.

I really like the new direction Charlotte Ronson's going on. This collection is more like her than her last (I think it was last fall that was more punky/sporty than usual), but I think she's sitll on the right track. Here, geometric designs are in, from patch pocket details to mazelike patterns on skirts to large silvery polka dots.

J. Crew Looks We Love

I really like this collection from J. Crew, and now that I'm working somewhere with an actual dress code, it may be in my best interest to spend a little more cash and invest in some "business casual" items...

P.S. It's my birthday! :D

F/W 2011: Jil Sander, Just Cavalli, Alberta Ferretti, Acquilano.Rimondi

ASOS Favorites!

I haven't done one of these in a while, but y'know, I do love ASOS. Here's what's caught my eye lately:

Holly Fulton scarf

Metal bowtie

Metallic satchel bag

Sheer knit maxidress

Boucle tweed dress

Floral lace dress

The perfect leather jacket! It looks like something a French guy would wear.

Probably the coolest ripped/non-ripped jeans I've ever seen.

The blouse and shoes in this outfit.

I love anything with a collar.

Probably as close as I'll get to the hat that Wendy and I are looking for.

I must have this brace!

Patent leather? Blush color? I am SO there.

I love ribbon  laces.
