When we want a quick pick-me-up, we usually head to Forever21, but who would have expected this kind of thrill from the brand? Tennesse Thomas, the drummer, vocalist, and pretty lady of band, The Like, models some delicate, vintage-inspired pieces from Forever21's new line, Boutique. Launching tomorrow, the new line is set to provide delicate and unique wares from the fast fashion brand that includes dresses, sweaters, bottoms, and outerwear inspired by old Hollywood costume archives as well as finds you might spot along Portobello Road. We're craving that ruffled, mint-green top (or dress, if you're as brave as Tennessee) and can't wait to get our hands on the heart-printed tights as well. Who's up for a quickie trip this weekend?
You came, you shopped…but after a week of stellar sales, we're slashing prices even more on all your favorite labels, from Zimmermann (the cutest bikinis and long dresses ever!) to loads of incredible designers like Thakoon and Stella McCartney (courtesy of Bird boutiques), all an extra 30% off! Rain or shine, this is your last chance on the very best deals of the week, so get to SAVE FASHION before the coolest sale ever is nothing more than a memory...
Above, from left: Vena Cava Leather Leggings, $325 (was $975); Wren T-Shirt Dress, $48 (was $150); Kimberly Ovitz Nylon Motorcycle Jacket (in black), $219 (was $625); Rebecca Turbow Bubble Skirt, $104 (was $300), all available at SAVE FASHION, 237 Lafayette Street, (at the corner of Spring Street), for details, check www.savefashion.com.
Catching a flash of a leopard boot and football-shaped baguette last season was enough to have us sitting on the edges of our proverbial seats in anticipation for high-res images of Alexander Wang's spring 2010 collection. After all, the mop-topped charmer's accessories are on a winning streak, with every one of his studded, embossed, and cracked leather goodies selling out faster than you can say "How much for these?". But that was last season during the heyday of the tough-as-nails trend, and as the spikes-'n'-chains thing fizzes out, we were worried that Alex might not be able to play catch-up quickly enough. But, from these product shots, we really had nothing to be concerned about, with playful heels with an athletic kick, a graphic update on the Coco bag, and that leather clutch that you might want to think twice about hiking down the end zone.

Twenty-year-old model, photographer, and artist Daul Kim is a personality we could never get enough of. Her audacious style and graceful stare have always stopped us in our tracks—but the tragic news of her untimely death has us frozen. Daul's enigmatic face appeared in editorials the world over, and her sublime demeanor always shone alive on each page. She surrounded herself in creative endeavors and spoke out in favor of personal expression, putting fans in their place when they criticized her for nude photo shoots, and celebrating and castigating the industry and its culture on her personal blog. As the last post on her blog overflows with respects from all who love her, we look at some of the best editorial moments of Daul Kim's career. RIP, Daul. You will be missed.

Miss Alicia Keys' resume is nothing to be scoffed at. Since appearing on The Cosby Show at age four, she's sold a gazillion albums, earned 12 Grammys, acted in three films, and is responsible for the insanely-catchy "Empire State of Mind," which has been playing on repeat in our heads for two months now. Despite her Midas touch, Alicia might want to think twice before expanding her jewelry-making venture. Pictures from her new line "The Barber's Daughters" emerged this morning, and we had to blink twice to make sure that the insanely talented 28-year-old could have produced something that would look right at home atop of a Christopher Banks sweater. The silver and gemstone pieces are inscribed with poetry and retail between $85 to $2500. "Jewelry is a first step," says Alicia, though she's thinking of expanding into accessories. If it's going to be anything like the jewelry, stay tuned for embroidered "fashion sandals" and long handled-hobo bags. Oy. (WWD)
When one thinks of Zac Posen, a distinct picture comes to mind—namely one of lavish evening gowns delineated by miles of luxe ruffles and jeweled panels, and chic cocktail dresses that become works of art on those with the income to flaunt them. For most of America, a Zac Posen label in something of a pipe dream. But no longer will we lack! The young designer, who claims that he can bust out dresses with his eyes closed, announced the birth of his "new identity" through a lower-priced sportswear line for Saks Fifth Avenue. Previews of the line (which is somewhat unfortunately named "Z Spoke") reveal a clean, high-fashion rendition of basic silhouettes, with a few twists in the form of asymmetrical style lines and cut-outs with defined piping detail. Believe it or not, the line is actually street-inspired, but with Zac Posen's magic touch, it becomes a luxury sportswear genre unto itself. (WWD)

Zac Posen Does Chic (and Cheap!) Sportswear for Saks
