Just in: MM6 by Maison Martin Margiela

mm6_1

MM6 is a sister line of Belgian designer label Maison Martin Margiela which transforms the main line’s avant garde style into an everyday wardrobe staple. All the pieces are mix and match items, with super clean construction, beautiful details and most of all, comfortable to wear. Azalea is thrilled to present the latest collection for Spring 2010 at the store, and coming soon online!

Just a couple of things to show you… We also have shoes, trench coat, a crisp shirt as well as denim leggings!

See the world through Tom Ford’s eye(wear)…

tom_ford1

Seeing the world through Tom Ford’s eyes would be pretty extraordinary. Not sure if that’ll ever be possible, but what’s possible at least, is seeing through his sunglasses!

The Whitney, which is the “Star” of the line, fits amazingly well on all sort of different face types and shapes. The plastic is tough and heavy weight, considering it’s slim frame. It is not flimsy and has a great shine and feel to it. The lens is just the right shade to show a little bit of your eyes behind it, and the slight grade of ombre on the bottom is a very nice touch for extra depth and dimension. Oh, and we aren’t currently carrying the men’s eyewear line, but I  had to put the (…ehem) naked male model from the latest Tom Ford campaign because it’s just hawt….!

New styles are available online and in-store:

Iosselliani in Lucky Mag

Henry Duarte x J.Brand – Capsule Collection

The much anticipated capsule collection from Henry Duarte for J.Brand channels David Bowie’s rock-on, timeless, reverberating style. Skin tight black jeans, with Bowie-inspired detailing like exposed zippers, lace up front style called the “Suffragette,” goes for the classic fit meets grunge chic. After all, who does skinny better than Bowie? These are definitely on our wish-list!! Coming soon at the store and online. Try them on, or reserve a pair!

More Doma Leather Jackets please!

Doma_Press

As seen on the Hollywood “It” girls, leather jackets are here to stay! Check out some styles from Doma Leather.

Black, skinny, and ripped

ripped_jeans

When you think that a pair of jeans can have more than a few rips on the knees, someone else comes up with a better idea! Works on both gals and guys… We have a pair from Blank for $71, which really worth saving you time and work if you are trying to rip your old jeans at home :P

Must try this: Jeggings, the “IT” item.

denim_leggings

They are all over the celebs, from Jessica Alba, Kristen Stewart, Nicky Hilton, and even Beyonce! They are soft, they are tight but comfortable, and they turn your silhouette svelte. We try them, we love them, and we definitely can’t keep them in stock. Come and try them at Azalea and see what I mean. Get them online! (On the right: AG Jeans “The Legging in Black” – $148, on the left: J.Brand “Denim Leggings in Olympia” – $139)
