Liv is organising the upcoming photo/video shoot for the
new Blushless styles,
finishing dresses, puzzling the concept together.
Psssssssssssst, it will be 1,2,3! new styles-
And you had a little sneak-peak already.
Time is going superfast right now.
Can’t believe August is already over.
2010 is on speed. I have to go back to work.
See ya soon.
Here is a little sneak preview of new styles and you can see what I am up to.
Liv lacks sleep these days.
I finally started working on my dresses again, but beside a full time job
Its hard to manage everything on a way too short day of 24 hours.
I am excited though for the new styles and litres of coffee and really loud music keep me going.
Its weekend again, which means workin on my business day and night.
My biggest wish and main goal is to make a living from my designs and be able to focus on that.

Shoes: FRED PERRY; Scarf: LOVE LABEL
both sponsored by and available via VERY
Dress: BLUSHLESS; Blazer: Liv’s own/Vintage
Here is to the ultimate eloping outfit:
I would highly recommend my new shoes as comfortable bridal flats, for all the “eff-the-heels-brides” that look for something cool and chic (and vegan).
They would make fantastic eloping shoes to just run out of the townhall and jump in the car!
Complete the look with the soft cotton skull & heart print scarf, that you can drape around your head to protect your hair while driving away in a convertible off to your adventurous roadtrip honeymoon ; )

ENGAGEMENTRINGS somehow became the topic of the month,
We had a post about my love for vintage/family jewelry,
contemporary edgy designers, a DESIGN-IT-YOURSELF-Post,
a special on my current obsession for grey diamonds and now here is my top selection of high fashion designer/luxury brand engagement rings.

You’ve maybe seen part of my new BLUSHLESS moodboard here already.
I am in full work process right now. There are so many strong images
and ideas that will have a big influence on the new styles.
I have the idea of “giving each other/giving the bride wings” through marriage in my head, plus transformation, growing, apiring, explosions…
All translating into new shapes for wedding dresses!
I can’t stop draping and don’t get too much sleep this days, but very soon you will see the results.
Isn’t the white peocock a stunning animal?
I would love to rent one or a few for my photoshoot, but I guess that’s not gonna happen.

HOT:
White shirt, and braces (for the British- or suspenders for the American readers!)
Any thoughts?
When I saw the photo shown above for the first time in a magazine,
I couldn’t help but stare on the page for about 10 minutes.
There was something about it. Something real, something intense and more
than just well photographed hot man in fantastic clothes.
I was wondering about the wedding ring on his finger as well…
After a little research about the campaign it became clear:
The photographers Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin, who are a married couple, shot themselves for the campaign. Seeing him through the eyes of his wife and see the love story between them — makes the whole campaign so very emotional. Van Lamsweerde left all fashion statements to her husband and appears nude.
I love projects of artist couples! And always have.
Ohhhh these summernights! Liv is getting excited, for the first time in her life, she’ll see a movie in a drive in!!!
They just created an urban drive in in east London, with original 50′s cars, all already set up! I can’t wait!

I think this piece would be great to wear with a wedding dress, to cover your shoulders and keep you hot during a chilly summernight!
I want!
shoes AMALIE by Sophie Gittins
Liv is a golden girl.
She just fell for this hot heels by Sophie Gittins.
This design drew from the rules applied by the Wiener Werkstätte – Graphic simplification of architectural shapes. The palette derives from the heavy use of black/gold by the movement.
Are there any golden guys/grooms to be out there?
The Gold Hexagon Printed Shoes is a Collaboration piece between Koji Horigome and creator Himbad.
These shoes of art are printed &made by hand in Shoreditch, London.
P.S: Did I mention I wanna have an all golden bathroom?
More, more , more London goodness:
The London based fashion label Social Suicide
The winter 2009 collection, entitled ”Dictators of Fashion”, draws style and structural inspiration from a series of 20th Century military and political heroes and tyrants. Classy!
Day suits in pure wool flannels and evening wear in super 120’s wool cashmere, trimmed and lined in silk. Every piece, as ever, hand made by tailors.
Happy Easter! What are you up to?
Liv will be in London for room&job hunting next week!
So now I am mainly planning and preparing,
as well as having some dog and family time this weekend.
Liv is busy making dresses!
The picture above shows theLIVLAVone in the making.
I had to take a photograph, since it draped so beautifully under the sewing machine.

The dress above is one of many great costumes by Christian Lacroix for the Agrippina Opera currently shown at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden Berlin
What a stunning dramatic wedding dress this piece would make!?
I haven’t seen this opera live but I am in love with the photos and I really feel
like going to the theater soon.(it has been a while)
This one will be a great fashion inspiration. So: If you are planning a Berlin trip soon: GO!
incredibly cool “engagement” rings by Maison Martin Margiela via oki-ni
…and you better have a ring ; )
Here we are, in the brave new world, where the ladies propose to their boyfriends.
I loved East Side Brides “ How to propose to your boyfriend” post.
If you haven’t read it already do it NOW here!
And then please come back here, if you got inspired because
Liv wants to suggest an incredible cool engagement ring for your boy.
Using brass and silver, the rings shown above are brushed for a worn appearance.
(alright I am biased, because I am a HUGE Margiela fan and the very hot suits on the site aren’t helping)
You might also like these groom style posts: rebellious rings, Lav is velvet, smart, sexy, and a little bit fabulous

But for now Liv has to focus on the head.
So here you go:
