Derek Lam’s Spring Summer 2015 collection was a full-on 70’s revival with a playful modern twist. The standout feature was the use of colored suede covering jackets, skirts, and flowing dresses. The palette felt warm and nostalgic with burnt orange, mustard yellow, and rich brown tones, accented by cream and muted green. It was a collection that immediately made you smile while appreciating the craft.

Baja East Ready To Wear S/S 2015 NYFW
Baja East’s Spring Summer 2015 collection at New York Fashion Week offers an effortless mix of urban cool and subtle goth edge, giving off that slightly Tumblr-inspired, streetwise aesthetic that feels both modern and relaxed. There is a clear sense that the designer wanted comfort to remain a central focus, yet without sacrificing style or visual interest. Fabrics feel soft and approachable, sometimes airy and lightweight, draping naturally over the body. At the same time, there are moments of careful construction where pieces are intricately twisted or layered over the torso, giving a subtle nod to toga-like draping without feeling costume-y.

Ralph Rucci Ready To Wear S/S 2015 NYFW
Ralph Rucci’s S/S 2015 collection is a masterclass in understated elegance and precision. From the very first look, the collection communicates confidence, refinement, and a deep understanding of structure and form. Rucci’s signature approach to tailoring and silhouette is on full display here, with clean lines and carefully considered shapes dominating the runway. Each gown and cocktail dress feels deliberate, as if every fold, every seam, and every pleat has been meticulously plotted to create a sense of balance and harmony. The overall effect is both modern and timeless, a collection that feels as appropriate for a high-fashion gala as it does for an editorial shoot.

Hyperlaps from Instagram
A new app has been released by Instagram called Hyperlapse making mobile device videos more professional and smooth. Everyone has become an elitist photographer with instagram, so why not video? Or should we call it filmography now? Either way it’s a step in the direction of better quality content. “Traditionally, time-lapse videos depend on holding your phone or camera still while you film,” said Instagram. “Hyperlapse from Instagram features built-in stabilization technology that lets you create moving, handheld time lapses that result in a cinematic look, quality and feel — a feat that has previously only been possible with expensive equipment.” Is Hyperlapse worth they hype?

Ice Bucket Challenge Haters
I was a bit of a skeptic with the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge trend at first, but then I saw Britney Spears (GODney Spears) take part in the challenge and I was sold. Someone throw ice water on me while I whisper and breath heavily like my gorl Britney. On a more serious note, I honestly have done no research on the challenge, where it originated etc. I don’t intend to either. Topics of charity just aren’t interesting. This is just an observation of the recent flood in social media concerning the topic. Just because Charity is boring doesn’t mean it’s bad. I understand. I donate when a cashier asks…
