The Row, founded by Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen one decade ago, has last week opened their flagship store in Los Angeles. A perfect picture of a midcentury modern California pad with a swimming pool in the sunny central yard. For the creation of this perfect space the Olsen worked with  designers David Montalba and Courtney Applebaum as well as with furniture and antique vendors such as JF Chen, Gallery Half, Blackman Cruz and Thomas Hayes Gallery.

You can visit the store now on 8440 Melrose Place, L.A..

COMME DES GARÇONS

I don't even know where to start. This outfit is just full of pieces I love and most of them coming out from my trip to New York last month. Yes, once again I went crazy on shopping around NYC.

THE BOX

in

I just love it! Introducing The Box by Building Block - my new bag but not the only one. Building Block has been introduced to me by J and who said guys don't have a good taste? Well my guy apparently has. I' m so in love with these bags that I bought two of them in New York. Yes, when I said 'not the only one' I meant I bought more than one new bag and both from Building Block. Couldn't resist it.

Building Block is a design project based in L.A. born in 2011. The brand is a minimalist approach to accessories design through the exploration of utilitarian materials and forms. Building Block just opened their latest space (studio + store) in collaboration with Iko Iko last April in L.A. (check it out here) and is also making a lovely appearance in The Selby latest book Fashionable Selby. The Box (available here).

 

ABOUT TIME

in

Spring has finally hit Shanghai and it's about time! Been waiting for months, never ending freezing months, to put on this one. Bought this one back in December last year and only got to use it for New Years eve. Yeah! Because Shanghai can hit the 45C in Summer but it get's pretty cold in Winter. The wait is over and now the only thing left is to enjoy this short Spring before Summer comes.
