There’s nothing more magical than when my two passions are united together. We can thank Hedi Slimane, creative director for Saint Laurent, for this one. Hedi has named Jake Bugg the face of Saint Laurent’s newest campaign. If you aren’t familiar with Jake Bugg, maybe THIS ultra-catchy song will ring a bell – or perhaps his previous love interest with Cara Delevingne. Saint Laurent is no stranger to rock n’ roll as Courtney Love, BB King, Chuck Berry, Daft Punk, and Marilyn Manson (to name a few) have also landed this role in the past, though 19 year old Bugg is the youngest among the artists. The campaigns feature the artists rocking one of Saint Laurent’s pieces in their own fashion, in which case Bugg is sporting one of their leather moto jackets as he’s strumming his guitar – young Mick Jagger, anyone?
Listen to Jake Bugg:

Out of all the seasons of the year, my favorite has finally arrived… BOOT SEASON! Though it may not be considered a “real season”, it still counts in my book. Styles come and go quickly, so it’s important to pay attention to which designer items we decide to invest in. Riding boots will forever be a classic, which is why I just snagged a pair of these Frye boots for the Fall. While I’m dreaming for these super trendy Balenciaga ankle boots, I know in reality it would be smarter for me to order a pair of these instead. Take a peek of some of my favorite Fall boot trends below and see how you can get the look for less!

Au revoir Nicolas Ghesquiére! If you haven’t heard the news already, Alexander Wang has officially been confirmed as the new creative director at Balenciaga by PPR – the luxury French conglomerate which purchased Balenciaga in 2001. PPR also includes large names such as: Alexander McQueen, Gucci, Saint Laurent, and Stella McCartney. Though Wang is known for his contemporary street-style fashion, he plans on embracing and enriching the designs that Balenciaga has represented for almost 100 years now. At the ripe age of 28, Alexander Wang has become the first designer of Asian descent to lead a major French fashion house. No need to worry my friends, Alexander Wang will continue to oversee his brand that we have all come to know and love.
Take a peek at some of Balenciaga and Wang’s pieces below. How do you think the two will mix?
