Oh man! Shala Monroque always looks awesome and is officially a favorite internet stalkee of mine. She wore the long Miu Miu SS10 cat dress with a feather in her hair at the MOCA event a couple weeks ago and had the studded Prada heels I wrote a love letter to during Fashion Week. At Alexander Wang she was dressed like a Coco Chanel horseback rider and in this slideshow she has the yellow skirt from Prada Spring 2001, which I know about thanks to Laia's obsession. At some point she wore the Christopher Kane gorilla dress too, also die-worthy. So classy and elegant but still interesting. She never resorts to anything plain but easy to get away with..
And now she is in Rodarte. So I HAD to post.PS hiiii Naomi, hi Elizabeth, how are you
Oh Shala. Is there a song with "Shala" in it? Because then I would make a parody of it now. Or maybe one about Shabbat that talks about challah? Hm. I'll come back to that one.

  5. that rodarte dress has had my heart from the first time i laid eyes on it. and it's even lovelier to see it off-runway, on a real human being.

    and as for a shala song, you can't go wrong with kiss the girl from the little mermaid :)

  22. you are pretty much the most awesome person ever. you have 4 million readers? thats the entire population of new zealand (not including the possums which number around 30 million) so i reckon teach the possums to read and you have 34 million readers. theres no-one in new zealand as cool as you cause they all leeeaaave. but actually karen walker and kate sylvester are good. you should hit that shit up. and trelise cooper and deadly ponies and stuff.ummm im not from tourism new zealand the whole point of this comment was to tell you that you're awesome and whenever you post something new my heart SINGS with joy. haha some quality personification there (an example of why i cant write a blog but yoooooouuu can)
    keep it classic!

  32. Tavi, you have the pleasure of working with her. She is one of my favorite new "IT" Girls and was even so nice to give me a little interview. I love to see newer individual style and not the ideas of a stylist and Shala is just that. I wish her all the best.

  38. Ok, Tavi, I know everyone has been saying Kiss the Girl. But seriously the best Shala song is:
    "Shala, la la la la, live for today"
    It's a serious classic. plus this video is awesome:
