It is so cold outside, I feel like my hands are about to separate from my body every time I step out of the flat and yet, here I am, day dreaming about the beautiful collections slowly arriving in store for the Spring. To start my SS 2010 lust / wish list, I had to show you one of my faves. tba has been on my mind a lot recently as you may have noticed!
I discovered the brand through Urban Outfitters but bought my first tba piece from ASOS. It is a beautiful butter soft mustard yellow silk blouse with scalloped edges in contrasting fabric and colours. The whole thing is so delicate, I feel extremely precious each time I wear it. Then came my lovely tunic dress... In between, I had a glimpse of the new collection at the UO press day and fell a little bit more in love with Binbin's designs. I've had the lookbook for a few weeks now and waited till now to share it with you as unveiling a collection too early is sometimes bad news for a small brand... if you catch my drift...
The good news is that tba also has a website and a beautiful one at that, showcasing SS 2010 goodies to the music of Serge Gainsbourg's Couleur Café.
This dress is my absolute favourite from the collection. I think it definitely will be up there on my shopping list for Spring!
I just love the way Binbin takes very simple shapes and mixes them with amazing embellishments and luxurious fabrics to create cute yet edgy pieces.
This is another wonderful dress, for sailor/flapper girls. You should go and have a look at the collection now, it is utterly perfect! Then come back here and tell me what you think...
Danger danger danger!!!
ReplyDeleteOooh, these are gorgeous. Can't wait for Spring!
ReplyDeleteAlso, love your new site design :)
Ah, snap, I love these too. There are some TBA dresses in the Urban Outfitters sale but the yellow one for ss10 is really something special...
ReplyDeleteAdeline - Tu devrais arreter de lire mon blog en fait, j'ai l'impression que j'ai une tres mauvaise influence sur toi. As if you needed that!
ReplyDeleteLeia - Thanks! I think the dresses will be available very soon in stores, no need to wait for Spring!
Rollergirl - I'd love to see you in one of these, you'd probably bring out their more minimal side with your super skills.
Goodness gracious!!!! You're right--that pale peter pan one is a dream dress!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful dresses + whimsical photos + interesting location = PERFECTION.

ReplyDeleteAl - La photo du 19/11, c'était pendant la journée presse. La robe n'est pas encore dispo. Normalement elle sera en magasin en Janvier/Février je crois.

HarrietCamilla - Thank you for your comment... I have just been paid and I am pondering getting the same one. Now I need to decide if I want it in black or nude.
ReplyDeleteHow is the fit?
