Tattoos, Leather and Lace at London Fashion Week

The recent Marios Schwab 2011 Spring collection shown at London Fashion Week was an unlikely collection of leather, lace and mystical tattoo prints. And, amazingly, it all worked remarkably well together in an edgy, feminine, and chic way. We plan to save our money to buy one of these adorable get-ups (the first dress is calling to us) because, let's face it, it's the closest we'll ever get to the tattoo parlor. Enjoy.

SJP at Burberry Show

And in other HBOish news, Sarah Jessica Parker attended the Burberry show at London Fashion week, looking a bit like a bobblehead. We love the jacket and the skirt and her hair and her bag. In particular, we love both the color on her and the structured leather jacket with the soft, feminine skirt. But we also think the proportions are just a bit off. In particular, we think her jacket requires just a bit more skirt or maybe a little less skirt? Don't get me wrong, she looks terrific, we just think she could look even more terrific with slightly different proportions. Or as we've thought for awhile now, maybe she just needs to gain a few pounds.

Boardwalk Empire and Flapper Fashion!

Michael K. Williams, who played Omar on "The Wire", is Chalky White on "Boardwalk Empire"

Well, dear hearts, we don't know if you watched Boardwalk Empire on Sunday night or not, but we sure did. Much to our dismay, we had been hearing a bit of damage control already regarding this show and were really concerned it wasn't going to be any good.

The adorable and talented Michael Pitt.

Wow. Were we ever wrong! First of all, Steve Buscemi is a fantastic actor, as everyone knows, and we can not wait to see what happens to his character Nucky Thompson. Second, we have loved Michael Pitt, the actor who plays Jimmy Darmody, since he wooed Michelle Williams on Dawson's Creek as Henry Parker. And, finally, the costumes are to die for!

In fact, we are really, really hoping that we see some 1920s styles hit the fashion scene soon as a result of this show (just as Mad Men is inspiring designers now). But, until the 1920s craze makes its way onto the pages of Vogue, we'll have to settle with the few 1920s-inspired fashions we can find now...
