Pause for Celebration!

...Followers and counting! Can I hear ya say Woot!?!

We see you ladies and gents. Though I think it should be noted that you all are less "followers" and more like Special Guests at our very entertaining (and never ending) Tea Party in Wonderland.

On behalf of RW, thanks for the love and support... lawd knows we need some more of that floating around the Universe.

And many thanks to Sergio Wonder, Seneca and Joana for inviting me to contribute to this masterpiece and being 3 amazingly talented individuals who I hope to be trekking the NYC pavement with someday... ((stares dreamily into the heavens))

Stalk Me!

We all have a thing for cheeky design, don't we? Thanks to Paul Smith and his "love" cufflinks, we can all live happily ever after! Buy it here.

Nobody Hates Chris...

FHM Magazine's "Fall" Editorial shot by Emilio Tini is a story that I've dreamed of for years. Gentlemen heppy about art and fashion. Don't we all love an animated gesture?

I do!

Out of the Sky....

The more you see work from Maison Martin Margiela's house.. the more you begin to think that that the people living there are capable of doing no wrong. These boots ::: sigh ::: are simply great.

Mighty Favor!

There are the very things that bring some serious attention to your wardrobe. Sometimes it could be the special pieces that are your layers... other times it's your spare parts. Like this blue leather back-pack by Yves Saint Laurent... take it anywhere and you're bound to get questioned.

Be prepared

Love Interest: DBSS

Although it may not be the proper weather for this type of layering... there's something about this loose knit cardigan by Diet Butcher Slim Skin that makes my imagination go wild. It's odd construction brings a lovely image to what can potentially be worn with it. I would say that I'm in love.. but the other pieces already standing in my closet might leave me.

Drinks In The Air!

Thanks to French designer Kitsune, gentlemen like us have accessories that have a special touch to it. Like this black bowtie, just not like your average bow. Which is why we love it...

Business Meeting at 9 a.m

Dries Van Noten knows how to keep it sharp in everything that involves menswear. These dress shoes are extremely modern and my ticket to the corner office on the top floor. Don't you agree?

Be There in the Morning...

It isn't at all surprising that Antonio Azzuolo's Spring 2010 collection adopted a clean and dapper image that might have more than a few gentlemen busy next season. In fact... I might be one of them that goes absolutely ballistic for the sleeveless blazer. I see so many great things for such a piece.

Navy Blue Suit

I've recently become quite fond of style icon and fellow entrepreneur, Ashley LeBlanc. I see her to be incredibly unique in all that she does and surely this had an influence on how I continued to see everyday life. Last week LeBlanc shared her views on the do's and dont's in the professional world. After reading the complete list, I realized that this was just something that people tend to do on a daily basis without having to realizing the image that is being portrayed.

"-You run your own company yet your employees are always late, and so are you.

-Every time someone sends you an inquiry about interviewing you with their e-mail and contact number (you still decide to Facebook them on their wall-uber unprofessional- or even in their inbox-you still think that's professional?- Oh no.

-You tweet a major or local celeb about meeting up for tea and possibly interviewing them. -Twitter?-

-Someone whom you are being interviewed by sends you questions via e-mail and though you spend most of your time on Twitter and Facebook it takes you SEVERAL weeks to reply... And the feedback is not as enjoyable as one would have thought.

-You text your business associate rather than call or e-mail them (calling would be preferred).

-You text your business associate AFTER BUSINESS HOURS! If its after 10pm and all you can say is : "Hey I just got your questions I will send them in a few". That could have honestly waited until the morning between the hours of 8am and 6pm.

-You decide to wear your lucky pair of chucks to your interview with Sony (yes we all know its a record deal... But you still need to be doning a suit and some dress shoes w/ a TIE!

-You possess a callertune on your phone. In which when a person of business calls you they are scared half to death with your favorite song blasting in their ears. Thus you have lost that opportunity. Or you have a very unprofessional voice box set up. Nobody cares about heartbreak in the world or BUSINESS!

-You are on a public train or bus and you are so loud with your phone conversation. You never know when you are around a potential employer. Or even your future boss at a huge corporation like SoBe Water.

-You post videos on YouTube, MySpace, Facebook and Vimeo of you and your friends being children, or you and your friends drinking, or even of you being too cocky to listen to your agent while in a cab you blast music and post it like that's the new "cool".

-You claim to be grown yet you still live with your Mom, you still have her washing your clothing and you don't have a damn job.

-Ideally a professional person always carries themselves in a professional manner. This person is highly respectable, and does not even take place in nonesense such as all the above."

If this has gotten more than just your attention and you'd like to read more about what LeBlanc thinks, you can find her at Haus of Fade

Be Professional.

Master Teacher...

Bex Rox continues to produce goods for the young and trendy block walkers. This chain bracelet with the cord detail is clearly for the girl who craves fun.

She's So Fresh...

Once again Christian Siriano brings the noise to his Spring 2010 collection. He also brings new meaning to "Project Runway" winner. If we'll every see one again, I'm not so sure. As for Siriano's Spring collection, I see him challenging his woman to try new things while keeping up with her viewers. Also note the amazing footwear.

The man is just good in what he does.

Fight Dirty!

I've always had a special yearning for feathers and other bird-parts and since jewelry designer, Pamela Love shares the same obsession... she's still my favorite LifeStyler to follow. Her beaked ring is perfect for conversation and ideal for a good weapon.

Play safe!

Just Us....

Since We last of heard of Jeremy Scott and his exclusive collection with Adidas... all the winged high-tops had sold out within a week. Gladly... he's giving us another chance with his Fall 2009 collection. I've got my eyes on the black pair in my size.

Stay Fly!

Control!

Very rarely we talk about cars here on Runway Wonderland... but when we do... it's gooood. Like Lamborghini's new Reventon Roadster which has every bit of edge that you need to prove you've got style and class. Read more about your new car... here.

Dark Skin

Tim Hamilton's Spring 2010 women's collection has a very strong and dark essence to it. The woman of the season clearly cares nothing for glamour, nor does she care to have her picture taken. Oddly enough it seems that people would perceive her this way without a doubt. I do dig trousers!

ZIP 'EM UP!

These Streets...

Balenciaga's new high tops are obvio0usly for the young and gritty.
And I like 'em
