In honour of my temporary foray into hedgehog-parenting, here are some painfully adorable hedgehog-themed accessories I found on Etsy.
Hedgehog flats by emandsprout ($24):
I feel like it would be impossible to have a bad day with these on your feet. How much do you love the fact that the hedgehogs have little flowers in their hair (or in their spikes, I guess)?
Hedgehog hair clips by CuckooBoo ($5):
Hedgehog necklace by Piggy ($18):
For the sophisticated hedgehog-wearer. (As if there's any other kind).
You guys, this collection is totally Barbie in Space!
Line Knitwear's show was the last of the week and arguably the best. The collection - full of long skirts, baggy sweaters, and knit turbans - spoke perfectly to the 70s meets 90s mood that the fashion world's been feeling as of late. The styling was impeccable - every look seemed like something Ali MacGraw might have worn in Love Story, if only she had more of a taste for accessories.

These pictures are mine. Don't steal them. Especially because you can totally find better ones to steal.
OR by Angela Chen's collection utilized knitwear in playful yet sexy ways. There were lots of back-revealing dresses but the most memorable look was probably a black mini dress with a sheer white piece at the back (calling to mind a bridal train). The clothes stuck to a fairly neutral pallette, but were paired with bright coloured tights.
Also, I really want to make a knit-related pun right now (knitwit? knitty-gritty?) but I am super overtired and in no position to be clever. Feel free to suggest your own in the comments. Winner gets nothing except for you will probably make me laugh.

While some collections are all about the concept, Lundström Collection’s fall/winter 2011 presentation was definitely all about the individual pieces. The Russia-inspired puffy fur hats and fur-trimmed coats were as close as the lovely but staid collection got to having any sort of conceptual, over-arching theme, but the beauty of some of the garments more than made up for it in the fashion stakes. The best were definitely a pair of tan leather trousers and textured black tea dress reminiscent of something Holly Golightly might pluck out of her closet.You can't tell me people wouldn't be all over this look if she was some nubile young hipsterette. I'm possibly biased, because I think the elderly pull off eccentricities better than anyone, but I think this woman is ridiculously cool.
Exhibit B:
I'm sorry, if you don't think appearing as if you have befriended oodles of butterflies is a good look, than you are no friend of mine.

Exhibit C:
Doesn't this one sort of remind you of Jeremy Scott's latest collection? Or of something Tavi would wear?
I guess one person's trailer trash is another's sartorial treasure?
Howwww are you so well-dressed? You are infants!
