ChEaP MoNdAy FW09/10...

Cheap Monday started out in 2000 as a second-hand store in Stockholm. 18 years down the line, they're a big international name in jeans.

They are bringing us their fall winter 09/10 catalogue - they're one of the first brands to present their campaign for FW 09/10.

The store began distributing new garments as well as second-hand, but they found that jeans were too expensive. The solution? To create their own line of jeans.Their first 800 jeans sold in just two weeks. And in 2005, Cheap Monday became a true fashion brand with a collection that went beyond just jeans

They've achieved their aim, distributing reasonably-priced garments in luxury stores, and competing with the attitudes and philosophies of luxury brands.Today, their jeans are sold in 28 countries and in over 1,000 stores.

I'm a FAN now!!!

Daughter of famous editor of Vogue Paris Corine Roitfeld, is the new face of Mango's ad campaign.

They've discovered an excellent branding tool in their link with popular faces.

Now's the time for this real European socialité!

This collaboration comes as no surprise - late last year we saw Julia dressed in Mango. And now we get to see the long-awaited photos.

The collection takes its inspiration from nature. It's simple, with architectural silhouettes and dominant pearl and grey tones.

What do you think?

I didn't like this pictures, found them as the collection pretty simple and kind of boring but she's gorgeous anyways!

Well obviously I know winter is over and now is all about Spring trends but I just found this designer that makes very original winter hats!

I guess we can wear this head accesories in any season because as we have this crazy weather... one day it's so hot and the other freezing!

So here it is Emilie Zanon, a 27-year-old French designer and her truly original collection of head accessories called chapkas, her designs (along with the help of excessive use of recycled fabrics) have this extra-terrestrial shapes.

Zanon describes her inspiration for this collection to be simply the observation of people in the street, trying to protect themselves not only from the cold but also from the different sources of pollution surrounding them. She created a warm and comfortable world for them to hide peacefully. It’s fascinating to see such inspiration not only translated in her collection, but also in the photographs of her pieces.

Don't you love this ammount of creativity?

Frida Giannini's new passion is tartan, in jackets and silk georgette dresses.

A collection that also manages to fit in the classic argyles, which combine with gold-flecked accessories.Greens and blues dominate the colour palette, mixing with pinks and yellows in the tartan patterns and giving the collection a younger, more urban feel and an interesting yet unexpected British touch.

Can't wait! I fell in love with the first tartan dress!
