Much like Edwin jeans are to the U.S., MOUSSY’S rock influenced vintage style jeans are a signature brand for women in Japan. Moussy campaigns, often shot by Terry Richardson, are sexy, edgy, and reflect Moussy’s image of “American inspired Japanese casual style”. The leading brand of Baroque Limited Japan since 2000, Moussy  has continued to develop its brand portfolio by successfully launching new brands such as Black by Moussy, AZUL by Moussy and a new favorite of mine Underbar by Moussy. The success of the original Moussy pop-up-store in NYC during 2011 Fashion’s Night Out confirms that Moussy is also an American fashion favorite and a brand that is here to stay.

As usual, I went to S/S 2012 pre-sale exhibition to stock up on Moussy goods. Sticking true to their rocker-inspired style the show room was stocked with distressed skinny and vintage-washed wide-legged jeans. I picked up a pair of overall bellbottom denims from the picture below. I will wear this style on the runway for K.I.S.S (Korean International Style Show) supported by Girl’s Award on February 26th! A three-day music and fashion event that is the first of it’s kind to be held at Yoyogi Daiikukan Stadium. For more information on this please check the K.I.S.S website!

I snatched up this net dress in red…

and both these pair of boots. The open middle leather motorcycle boots are easily coordinated and sure to be heavily rotated item in my closet this Spring.

I have been a hardcore Moussy fan ever since shooting for their campaign in 2008.

I met press representative Hanako Suga at that time and have remained good friends ever since. I love you!

XOXO,

I discovered this bag in a Fashionista.com article ”Cambridge Satchel Company: The Inspiring Story Behind Fashion Month’s Most Affordable ‘It-Bag’.” Like a true entrepreneur the creator and founder, Julie Deane, started the company without any previous design experience. Besides wanting to pay for her daughters education she wanted to create a satchel according to the classic British design. Since every bag is hand made the fluorescent series was produced on request by a customer. The future sure looks bright for a company with plans to collaborate with Comme des Garcons, ASOS and Urban Outfitters (UK).

For me, the nonconformist color combined with an embossment is a winning combination. Not only is the colour eye-catching, but a friend recognized me from the monogram.

 

You can order your own Cambridge Satchel online and have it delivered to your door. I do love surprise gifts from myself at my doorstep.

 

I am wearing

Laguna Moon shirt

H&M necklace

Decious sweatpants

TopShop ankle boots

XOXO,

This is my first post of my new favorite items. Thanks to Fakui I discovered the beauty of a pair of good printed tights. Many printed tights can be tacky or even slutty, but with the right texture and design they can be a bold statement of personal style. I fell in love immediately with the tights on the Fakui website and ordered two pairs. Feeling different than usual the other day I matched the tights together with my outfit creating an urban hippie look, in which the wings and streaks of color attract the eye. The tights have already been spotted by Japanese magazines GinzaGlamorous, and Numero so be sure to catch on to the trend early.

 

I am wearing:

Rag & Bone khaki tank

Decious jacket

Vintage snake skin print bag

H&M waist clinch leather belt

H&M suede boots

American Apparel red lace bra

Fakui winged color printed tights

Enjoy,

Liv Lo
