How cool are these Ksubi jeans with a guitar print by Jeremy Scott? I snapped this photo of a model wearing them during the recent Paris collections and have been a bit obsessed with them since. I’m a huge fan of Ksubi and Jeremy and this is my favorite collaboration of theirs to date - adding a bit of edge to this spring/summer staple. Coming soon to a cool girl near you…x eddie

Hey - yesterday’s
Wall Street Journal column on
how to pronounce fashion names gave me such a laugh that I had to pass it on to you guys. Anyone who has ever accidentally bumped into
Hedi Slimane (Edi Sli-mahn) and torn their
Ann Demeulemeester (Ahn Duh-moo-lah-MEE-ster) jacket while racing to catch the
Thakoon (Ta-koon) show will surely be able to relate. The best bit - look for the sidebar where you can play audio clips of
WSJ fashion reporter Christina Passariello pronouncing the names correctly. It’s like a Berlitz course taught by Derek Zoolander! For kicks, try it the way I did - hover your cursor over the “play audio” button…pronounce the designer/label name the way you think is correct…then play the clip. One key to correct pronunciation is not being afraid to use the correct lilt - some fashion names require a certain Euro affectation that can feel seriously pretentious. The upside - certain fashion names, when pronounced correctly, are really fun to say. I dare you not to smile while saying
Bulgari (BOOL-ga-ree) or
Ungaro (OON-ga-ro)…xo Eddie

It seemed like everywhere I went in Paris and London last month I couldn’t swing a baguette without hitting someone wearing
Yves Klein blue. With more depth and richness - and just plain pop - than your average “royal” blue, this color looks fantastic when paired with black. It’s a great way to add a bit of juice to your “all black all the time” urban uniform. There was also something about the dull light of Europe in winter that caused this color to look positively electric when set against grey skies.

Call H&M and tell Henry Holland the news - I totally have to get this new Agyness t-shirt! Only $25 from Deer Dana - aka Brooklyn illustrator and graphic designer, Dana Veraldi. Also, check out this kid’s whole look - most adults don’t dress nearly this well. Nice silver metallic jazz shoes…and the look on his face is like, “What? I dress like this all the time.”

Maybe someday they will build a catwalk inside Buckingham Palace…until then, the Biba show at historic Claridge’s Hotel will have to serve as the most British introduction one could hope for to London Fashion Week…
