$$$hopping: some sites worth seeing


lanvin tee-shirt, €515; comme des garçons for speedo swimsuit, €75; at colette.


remind me to re-visit these sites when i'm filthy rich and have nothing to spend all my millions on:

luisaviaroma.com: i find this site to be much nicer and easier to navigate than net-à-porter. it also sells balmain - isn't that nuts? also look at their selection of ann demeulemeester, chloé, givenchy, rick owens and sonia rykiel for inspiration at a high price.

lagarconne.com: basically, the one site where i want absolutely everything. it's like this strange utopia on the internet that i can flock to when i'm feeling upset, and automatically love myself again. really, there's nothing like relying on a website as your source for zen, right? a great place to go for fun european brans like vivienne westwood's "anglomania" line, a.p.c., united bamboo, zero + maria cornejo (a mobama favorite) and vanessa bruno.

oaknyc.com: pleasure principle, pour la victoire, fifth avenue shoe repair, and alexander wang's new diffusion line "t by alexander wang" are all mid-range luxury items available at oak, and i cannot wait to go to their manhattan store this weekend!

sevennewyork.com: i love this site so fucking much, but it has one fatal flaw: any items that are sold out still remain on the site, but have a little "sold out" logo in the corner of each thumbnail. seriously, do you have to rub it in? still, if you're looking for crazy shit like gareth pugh, nicholas kirkwood shoes, jeremy scott, jean-charles de castelbajac, house of holland and cassette playa, here's your hub.

colette.fr: this is a no-brainer, but colette has some pretty fabulous shit in their e-shop right now. lutz and patmos, valentino, current/elliot, rodarte jewelry (gasp!) and even erin wasson's line of clothing are all there.
