William Potter II Out Magazine

William Potter is all grown up and would you look at that smoulder! William recently shot this editorial for Out Magazine with Thomas Giddings and can you believe it was shot in Poole, the deserted wasteland would look more at home in the American outback. We are loving Williams laid back look and can't wait to see what else he has to offer us!

Need: Alexander McQueen Double-Buckle Western Belt

Despite the fact that McQueen could not be more hot right now, I have always had a lot of respect for the women who could wear McQueen without ostentatiously participating in a trend. This double-buckle Western belt is an amazingly intricate piece that I could see fitting seamlessly into my wardrobe. The tooled leather and embossed brass buckles give a traditional belt enough detail and excitement to make almost any outfit. I'm thinking that the belt and collar tips might be a bit much?

Olga Sherer || Louis Vuitton Prefall 2011

The stunning elegance of Olga Sherer is a perfect match for the Louis Vuitton prefall collection - the classic art direction and vintage inspired styling has got us pining for yester-year or at least a flight to the Alps for a skiing holiday. Gorgeous.

Brimfield Find: Vintage Sterling Silver Collar Tips

With a little nudge by my friend Naomi, I pulled together a spontaneous trip to Brimfield for their annual spring antique show. Along with Mark and Tanya we piled into a Zipcar for our very own three hour tour to Massachusetts. My buying impulse didn't kick in early enough and thus I only came home with one item, but thankfully I am obsessed with that one item. I scored these amazing vintage sterling silver and brass collar tips by the Mexican artist Ricardo. The lady who sold them to me (also wearing collar tips) told me that if I polished them, the brass would shine like gold. Naturally my first reaction more along the lines of how very Balenciaga they could be. Alas, they will remain tarnished for now riding the line between my newfound love for authentic Western style and my longstanding love for high-fashion with a sense of humor.
