Today was the funeral for Alexander McQueen. I hope he finds peace and beauty in the next life – thank you for a lifetime’s worth of inspiration. (Image of McQueen lace-up peep-toe pumps from Pedder Zine Spring/Summer 2008)

Anthropologie fan favorite Leifsdottir’s Spring 2010 lookbook is lush and lovely, and incites the wanderlust in me, full-body airport scanners be damned. Their pieces are available for online purchase now.

Truly in love in everything Stella McCartney creates – her summer 2010 collection has the sweetest, softest palette of sunset shades.

I haven’t been this excited about a designer collab in awhile – really looking forward to the stripey sweaters by Sonia Rykiel for H&M next week. And it doesn’t help matters that the campaign features my fave model of the moment, Karlie Kloss.

I’m a big fan of Claire Pettibone’s bridal gowns – she designed my wedding dress, after all – and her latest Asian-inspired Spring 2010 collection is nothing short of breathtaking. In a world full of over-the-top cupcake dresses, I love how the standard bloom takes on a more sculptural, textured feel.

Nina Ricci Pre-Fall 2010 serves as the perfect point of inspiration for a Valentine’s Day date – whatever the occasion, the style remains classically romantic, effortlessly feminine, sexy not slutty.

I’m still enjoying my (pleasantly cool So Cal) winter, thanks, but Moschino Cheap & Chic Resort 2010 gives me something to look forward to.

Fuzzy, flesh-toned pieces in Lizzie Fortunato’s Ragdoll necklace, part of her line for the always-body-conscious VPL.

Phillip Lim spoke at the LACMA yesterday on his latest spring collection, so I find myself re-inspired by his work. His Fall 2009 looks incorporate various shades of rose – normally bright, springtime colors that still manage to look overall neutral for autumn.

I have a new affinity for overhead shots, and the shots of punchy pinks on concrete make me excited for the upcoming cooler weather in Who What Wear’s November editorial.
