six days, five bags

bloggers,

Hello world! Onlysix more days in the beloved Luton, it's really a sad thing. I'm so accustomed to everything, especially the time zone :) But school starts in eighteen days, and I've already got five Primark bags! I found some other great stores, Topshop, Blue Star, Accessorize, but Primark has to be the best. Baha, so I've finally got our fashion editions for today, curtesy of fashionweekdaily.com . I saw so many posts that I loved, I had to have all of them :D

Kanye West has long been outspoken about his plan to break into the fashion business. This summer, rumors have abounded that the musician was working as a lowly intern at the Gap. “He’s not my intern!” laughed Gap designer Patrick Robinson this morning, as he launched his 1969 Premium Jeans Collection. “He’s a friend of mine, and he just likes to see what we do. I tell him, if he wants people to take him seriously in fashion, they have to see blood first! They have to see the blood and the sweat, to see that he really wants it–but he definitely has the capability.” Chic Report had to know: does Robinson really think West might one day make the switch from singing to sewing? “I keep telling him he should stick to music,” he said. “I’d do it! I’d sell out Madison Square Garden!”

Hollywood’s finest came out for the annual Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s installation luncheon held at the Beverly Hills Hotel to basically butter up journalists from Australia and Russia for the winter (January’s Golden Globes are approaching, after all!). Evan Rachel Wood stood out in her breezy Gucci dress.


Our favorite September cover so far? None other than the one found on Seventeen’s subscription copies. The magazine is turning 65 this month, and to appropriately toast, editor Ann Shoket and publisher Jayne Jamison trotted out an archival cover wrap from the September 1944 issue. (The coverline? “Young fashions & beauty, movies & music, ideas & people.”) There may be a lesson here…


Other than, say, Robert Pattinson, the Chic Report award for most meticulously documented summer is looking like it’s going to Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana. Photo op in Portofino with Eva Mendes, check. Party with Jennifer Lopez and Naomi Campbell in Capri, check. Now, pictures are popping up (figure 1, 2) of the D&G duo frolicking in Italy’s Aeolian Islands with Giovanna Battaglia and Vladimir Restoin-Roitfeld. All this is making Chic wonder: could there be a pap on the Dolce & Gabbana payroll?

Special thanks to Patrick McMullen and Getty images, for your wonderful photography :) Alright, I've got to go to town soon, bye!
