Lambo Louboutons?

January 12th, 2010

We know you love your cars. We know you love your stilettos. Ever thought about combining them? Well, Tim Cooper has. He created a high heel shoe using images from the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera.

What do they look like you ask? Various sites had photos up but it looks as if Mr. Cooper asked them to take them down so we will respect that not post them here (although a quick google search should allow you to find them). Want a visual—think Lamborghini meets Louboutin.

Cooper reportedly created them as a possible item for Tonino Lamborghini. We’re not sure what the status is but we hope to see them racing around city streets soon!

Lagerfeld sporting his new wardrobe staple.

January 11th, 2010

It’s been showing up on fashion runways and the petite palms of fashionistas for about a year now—fingerless gloves. It’s been seen on the likes of Paris, Britney, Lindsay and countless other pretty young Hollywood types.

And of course, the trend—in black, silver, leather and mesh—has become a staple in the Karl Lagerfeld dark glasses and buttoned-up white shirt uniform consistently over the past year. Lagerfeld even designed some high end versions for Chanel.

Is this a cool new street trend or is it a lame attempt to bring racing wear to masses? Is it Lagerfeld fashion forward or Like A Virgin Madonna trend best left in the past? Read more about the fingerless glove trend…

Chanel concept car.

January 07th, 2010

Sadly no, Karl Lagerfeld has not designed a car. But Jinyoung Jo, a student at Hong-ik University in South Korea has designed a Chanel concept car.

Worthy of Coco, we’re not sure, but it is a pretty amazing design.

Katie sporting the Balenciaga jacket in tan.

January 04th, 2010

Ok, so the jacket is not brand new—came out a few years ago. But motorcycle jackets are always a fashion must-have and never go out of style.  Balenciaga has been a friend to the Car Couture fashion for a while now what with their infamous, and perhaps currently just a little over-saturated, motorcycle bag. With that, this Balenciaga jacket is THE motorcycle jacket to have this year.  I have been lusting after it for a while now and trying to figure out a way to make it mine—do i really need things like say food and shelter this month? All my love to Nic, well done on this one—big kiss from Drive like a woman!
