H&M have release their spring magazine, with a cover and editorial featuring Erin Wasson. There is always a lot of chic-chat when Erin models for a company like H&M that revolves around whether a grunge goddess like her should model for a clean-cut company.
Finally, this editorial proves that there is a happy medium for Erin. By mixing classic denim pieces and fresh tees with chunky boots and Navajo-inspired earrings, they’ve managed to give us a healthy dose of Erin without taking away from the fresh-faced appeal that H&M has. A success?
Remember Jess Hart, the charming, gap-toothed model who appeared alongside Whitney Port on The City’s first season? Jess has just added designer to her resume, releasing a capsule collection with Australian retailer General Pants. Neon Hart is a ragbag assortment of clothes that takes inspiration from the rocker chic aesthetic of the 1980s.
Or, in Jess’s words: “Chunky and studded pieces, edgy and clean, a splash of red, animal print and lace. It’s a bit boyish, a bit rock and roll and even a bit sexy. It’s uncomplicated clothes [that] I wear on a daily basis.”
Here’s a sneak peek at the Neon Hart lookbook. Neon Hart is available in General Pants stores and online now and is priced between AU $59.95 and AU $139.95. Check it out and tell me what you think.
If there is one thing that can be said about Kirsten Dunst, it is that she always dresses for comfort. That’s not to say she isn’t super stylish; she is. But the girl doesn’t sacrifice her personal comfort for fashion. Luckily, she has managed to combine the two to come up with her own quirky style.
Kirsten’s style is an effortless mix of vintage chic and modern basics. She has a knack for bringing out the best in a vintage dress, often updating an otherwise drab silhouette by throwing on a modern piece like a denim jacket or boyfriend blazer. Her unforced, natural aesthetic has resulted in Kirsten becoming the unofficial muse of Rodarte’s Mulleavy sisters. “She inspires us to be more creative,” Kate Mulleavy says.
As a muse to Rodarte and many others, Kirsten Dunst was a natural choice for March’s edition of It Girl. You clearly agreed, because she led our reader’s poll from the beginning. Whether you like her for her cool-yet-casual style or her quirky take on vintage, you’ll be sure to find some inspiration below. With that, we present some of our favorite looks from Kirsten over the years.
#1. Here, our It Girl heads out on the town with red hair and a toned-down, casual look. Her grey skinny jeans are paired with simple ballet flats and a slouchy cardigan for a great “everyday” style. For a stylish take on Kirsten’s outfit, pair BDG’s Premium Skinny Jeans ($54) with Splendid’s Hemp Slub Slouchy Cardigan ($63). Finish off the look with these Leather Ballet Flats ($39.50) from Gap and a skinny leather belt.
#2. Heading out for day in Hollywood, Kirsten mixed a 50s-inspired denim skirt with a floral top, then accessorized with a thin scarf and bright green Wayfarers for a modern touch. For a similar style, try this Chambray Elastic Waist Skirt ($24.99) from Arden B, paired with Topshop’s Lace Floral Shawl Top ($50). As you walk out the door, grab these Summer Wayfarers ($196.58) by Ray-Ban.
#3. As with all our It Girls, the ability to mix-and-match is essential. Here, Kirsten shows us how to work a vintage dress by pairing it with a denim jacket and a pair of leather sandals for an updated look. For a similar style, we love Stop Staring’s Vintage Dress ($142) paired with AE’s Cropped Denim Jacket ($34.95). Add a pair of Huarache Flats ($18.99) from Charlotte Russe and you are good to go.
#4. Here our It Girl provides us with another fresh take on casual dressing. Kirsten pairs a grunge-inspired plaid shirt with simple black shorts and a pair of peep-toed wedges. For a similar style, try this Plaid Cotton Shirt ($62) by J.A.K., mixed with Topshop’s Black Denim Hotpants ($44). Throw on a pair of Ucantell Peep-Toe Wedges ($69) by Bandolino to complete the look.
#5. One of the things we love most about Kirtsen’s style is her ability to pull off just about anything. This effortless ensemble combines a pair of high-waist, wide-leg jeans – totally inspired by the 70s – with a plain white tee, an embroidered leather satchel and her favorite wedge shoe. DVB’s High Waist Wide Leg Jean ($189) starts the look off nicely, especially when paired with J Crew’s Vintage Slub V-Neck Tee ($29.50) and Lucky Brand’s Get Laced Embroidered Leather Crossbody Bag ($119).

Last year we featured an interview with Sarah Bagner, the cutting-edge Londoner behind Supermarket Sarah. Supermarket Sarah is an online shop with a twist. The website features a picture of Sarah’s London flat, with a wall of wares that you can click on and purchase. If you’re in London, you can visit Supermarket Sarah personally, where you’ll be greeted with tea and cakes.
For her latest wall of treasures, Sarah has enlisted the help of guest curators, Anna Murray and Grace Winteringham from Patternity, who have put together a selection of bright, patterned goods that are perfect for spring. From technicolor sweater dresses to vintage swimsuits, from woven basket bags to nail files, there’s a little something for everyone.
I can’t help but love the bright colors and prints. It’s all very techno-tribal which is a huge trend for spring. Let me know what you think of Supermarket Sarah x Patternity.

Yesterday, less than a month after his death, Alexander McQueen’s final collection was shown to a small audience in Paris. The show notes told of McQueen’s inspiration for the collection – Byzantine art and Old Master paintings – and ended with the words: “Each piece is unique, as was he.” What more can be said?

New York-based streetwear label Hellz Bellz has been on the fashion map for a while and they have developed a huge cult following. The launch of their spring collection, “Obsessed With You,” brings with it some exciting news for fans: Hellz Bellz is evolving from a streetwear label into a fashion-forward brand.
Although the new collection still has plenty of the gritty attitude that Hellz Bellz is known for, it also offers a more diverse selection of clothes. It was inspired by the “obscure view of modern fashion and the obsession it becomes.” Miss Lawn/Lanie, the founder and creative director, stuck to a minimal palette for the collection and focused on simple silhouettes. The approach paid off. Obsessed With You has something for every girl, yet it doesn’t stray from those signature elements that made Hellz Bellz as popular as it is.
Here is a peek at some images from the Obsessed With You lookbook. What do you think of the collection?

Late last year, British “It Girl” and model Daisy Lowe was named as the face of Louis Vuitton’s swimwear line. She promptly headed down to Miami for the shoot and a few days ago, the first shots of the campaign were revealed, thanks to Dazed Digital.
In the campaign, Daisy wears pieces with prints designed by Japanese artist Takashi Murakami, alongside bright sunglasses, stacked bracelets and popping clutches. The collection, named Cosmic Blossom, is bright and colorful and feels fresh, young and contemporary. What do you think of Daisy’s turn in the campaign?
Kirsten Dunst has turned up in the #64 issue of V Magazine, looking decidedly “Old Hollywood.” Appearing on two separate covers and in an accompanying editorial, Kirsten was photographed by Mario Testino and wore labels like Givenchy, Burberry, Balenciaga and Rodarte.
The one-shouldered Rodarte dress is probably familiar to Kirsten. Over the last few years, Kirsten has formed a special, muse-worthy relationship with Kate and Laura Mulleavy, the sisters behind Rodarte. “She inspires us to be more creative,” Kate Mulleavy told V.
The colors in this editorial, the greens against the reds, are quite striking. What do you think of Kirsten Dunst channeling the Old Hollywood glamour?
