The Peter Pan Effect

(images from style.com and around the internet)
Wikipedia gives the definition: "Peter Pan collars are a popular collar style for younger children" and mostly worn by female. I don't really see the reason why Disney didn't give its character Peter Pan a round-edged collar, especially since it is named after him, but I know that lately all I want is those white collars as seen on my favorite girl, Alexa Chung. She also designed some for her line with Madewell, but I don't have access. I had my eyes on this one  but unfortunatelly it is out of stock now. There are alternatives though like this one and this one . We'll see, I would also love a white shirt or a blouse with this collar. Peter Pan Collar is my thing for now!

From Mulberry to Alexa with Love

The new Mulberry bag inspired by Alexa Chung, was announced during the Fashion week back in September 2009. Now we can finally see what comes from the mixing of a super cool british girl's style and a luxurious plus traditional British fashion house. Alexa Chung is one of my personal favorites, she is in the spotlight even more lately hence her unique mix & match style and the fact that she moved to New York (word is that she might be heading back home now though). You can hardly name her merely an "it Girl" because she is so much cooler than all those girls that go around holding the latest designer bags or wearing Balmain dresses with booties (don't get me wrong I love those dresses too, but there is a time when enough is enough).

So here you have it. The new "The Alexa" line of bags will be available soon and it is a mix of the amazing Bayswater (one of the house's trademarks and seen on Alexa in almost all the colors available) and the men's briefcase, mixed with feminine features. Combining classic leather and shape plus being one the most awaited products of S/S 2010 it is sure to become a great hit.
