In case you haven't heard about Revolve's new site
Forward by revolve,
now you have =)
As usual when I have no life and there's no t.v life
(there's only so many tv movies you can watch in a day)
I go online to browse
Somehow, from looking at platform sandals (marni patent wedges anywhere?)
I drifted into Brian Reyes section on Forward
Who is he?
Well he's young
he's up-and-coming
he's from Columbia
he interned at Oscar de la Renta (whose from the Dominican Republic, aahh Latin America)
and still his clothes cost beyond anywhere near my means
although cheaper when compared to de la Renta right right?
Anyways, his clothing are very polished and refined
and after looking at his Fall 2009, he's heavy on the shiny fabrics
while his Spring 2009 clothes on Forward are very airy and light.
Observe exhibit 1 that caught my eye
look at how happy those model legs are prancing in that skirt
note to self: must get legs like those, skirt like that, shoes like that
in other words, find a way to inhabit the model
what's that you say?
a close-up
but of course!
How pretty is that fabric?
and POCKETS
nothing makes me happier than a pleated skirt with POCKETS
and screw the fact that there's horizontal stripes
yes yes we know they apparently draw attention to width and blah blah
but this skirt is way pretty to care
If only it didn't cost $500
What else caught my wayward eye?
oh just this little simple thing
beautiful isn't it?
in the alternate dimension where I'm obscenely wealthy and I would have this dress in my hands,
I would wear this dress everywhere
to church ( I'm not religious really)
to the supermarket (might get a few stares, a FEW)
to the bowling alley (would look very nice with those shoes)
heck I might get married in it
but if I were obscenely wealthy,
I wouldn't wear it more than once
Gahhhhhhhh
I have no idea how to make these photos smaller
In case you can't see, this photo is from justjared
and yes that is Ashley Greene,
more famously known by teenieboppers everywhere as the actress playing Alice Cullen
in the Twilight movies.
More to the point, she's wearing a Brian Reyes dress, hence I included her.
(also for the fact I love a nice tangerine clutch with a white dress, very wise choice stylist for Ashley)
She looks pretty kickass in this outfit and I would also wear that dress everywhere
(wear it to bed! wear it to football games! It goes everywhere!)
and finally
Brian Reyes Fall 2009 RTW
I just found the intensity in the model's face very amusing
Why the death glare?
Can't you let the audience appreciate the delicate dress you're wearing without feeling your wrath?
Perhaps it's the awkward cleavage
