Once again, browsing the Opening Ceremony online shop and finding new Spring-y items to covet. The weather is warming up and the sun is out (yesterday marks the first day I sat on the roof, though only for 5 minutes because of the wind), which means open-toes are finally weather appropriate. Here is today's hypothetical outfit.
For their Spring 2010 collection, Opening Ceremony got Gia Coppola and Tracy Antonopoulos to direct Kirsten Dunst (yeah, my girl crush) and Jason Schwartzman in a short film inspired by French new wave and set to a Coconut Records song (Schwartzman's band). This cute and quirky video is the result.
Being a huge Jason Schwartzman fan (thank you Wes Anderson), I recently watched the first season of Bored to Death (credit to Marj - hi Marj! - for letting me know it exists). So Jason Schwartzman is a Brooklyn-based writer who moonlights as an unlicensed private detective. I wonder how many people posted craigslist ads after seeing this show? I'm not going to lie. I was tempted. Anyway, you should watch it, because it's funny, not necessarily HAHA-funny but chuckle-hmm-that's-smart-funny. Watch it if not just for Ted Danson. Think Alec Baldwin is to 30 Rock as Ted Danson is to Bored to Death (proportionally, but 30 Rock = 10x Bored to Death, and please marry me Tina Fey, MARRY ME).
Just perusing the Opening Ceremony online store, researching for my next personal style guide chapter and finding things I like. So I made a little outfit.
Vena Cava afghan top
Acne sensational silk trouser
Opening Ceremony gladiator oxford
Joomi Lim cuff
(what can I say, I like accessories that double as assault weapons)
