Looks by Larissa: Moschino Boots

Spring is finally in the air. Today the sun was shining and students were soaking up the rays on the grass in every spot of sunlight. On this day, I opted for one of my most favorite pieces: Leggings from H&M with a suede detail. These unique leggings can take any outfit to the next level. I have received countless compliments whenever I wear them.

I am also wearing Moschino vintage ankle boots, which are one of my most recent purchases. These leather boots were beautifully made in Italy, and I am in love with them! On top, I am wearing a basic white T-shirt with a vintage, light blue jean vest, I picked the vest up on the streets of Mexico in a tiny little vintage shop for only $1.50. It's super lightweight and simple, and I can pair it with almost any top on warm days.

Moschino RTW Fall 2012

Toy soldiers, marching bands, and the Pink Panther could all describe the inspiration for Moschino’s fall 2012 collection. With such a complex description, one may conclude that the collection was wide-ranging, diverse, or all over the place. Each assumption would be correct, but in Moschino’s case, it worked.

Gold accents, double-breasted military jackets, clutches, and mini dresses with ruffles upon ruffles were featured in the line’s runway show. Cropped jackets paired with miniskirts, hooped earrings, zippers, chain-link details, and an array of gloves were also present.

Materials like fur, leather, cashmere, brass, and feathers all appeared in the collection, designed by Rossella Jardini. Described as a parade by Jardini, the ready-to-wear collection was colorful, bold, and fun.

Extremely daring and borderline “out there,” this collection may only work for the experienced fashionista unafraid of taking risks. With great options for everyday errands and evening events, Moschino’s RTW fall 2012 collection should be considered when you're putting together an awesome wardrobe for the coming months.

Thinking Outside Of The Cage: Anna Dello Russo, Fashion Maniac

There is no arguing that fashion videos are by far one of the latest crazes. From cheese chic fashion vids like the recent Fall 2011 Lanvin Campaign Movie to the fashion footage gold found on the website of luxury storyteller NOWNESS and fashion blogger extraordinaire Bryan Boy’s pocket voyeur videos, fashion videos take on many forms and many different levels of production. However out of all the forms and coagulations that fashion and video may manifest, the most engrossing thus far, is by Anna Dello Russo.

Coca-Cola Does Milan Fashion Week

Yes, I know. A bit odd. But hey, it is Milan Fashion Week.

Coca-Cola Light teamed up with various designers this week to feature "fashionable" giant coke bottles wearing various designer's labels.

The event, "Tribute to Fashion," was thrown to raise money for Abruzzo, Italy earthquake victims. Some of designers who participated were Moschino, Donatella Versace, Angela Missoni, Alberto Ferreti, Consuelo Castiglioni and Etro.
