Levi's X Liberty Collection

Bang on trend and just as the spring/summer weather is finally here, Levi's, the iconic denim brand and Liberty, the London department store, known for its Tudor building, prints, home ware range and heritage, worked together to create Levi's X Liberty Collection. A fusion of Levi's archive pieces and Liberty's historic prints, reworked and modernised.

The collection consists of 15 pieces characterised by two distinctive prints: Carlin, a 1970's floral print and Kerr Bandana, a floral Pointillist prints of the 1940's.

The items range from dresses, shirts, trousers, to shorts and jackets and great bag! I picked up five items but you can view and shop the whole collection here, or at Liberty.

Wonder Girls - Wonder Style!!

Are you familiar with Lim, Sohee, Sun, Yenny and Yubin? Ever heard of the Wonder Girls?
K-pop icons and, it's the reason I'm writing about them on this bog, style mavericks? If not, here there is a brief up to date account about them.

• First Koean group to make it in the American Billboard chart, with the 2009 single 'Nobody' (76th place).

  




Dreamgirls inspired look for 'Nobody'








• Supporting act for the Jonas Brother's U.S. tour last summer.

• Touring the U.S and Canada with their first world tour with the funky/retro song ' 2 Different Tears ' ( 2DT) , that came out in 3 langauges (English, Korean and Chinese).
  

80 denim&lace look for 2DT album cover and MV

Taking for granted that K-pop songs are catchy and well written, that Korean singers are true performers ( their singing and dancing skills are far better than the average Western pop sensation), the Wonder Girls, since their debut in Korea, in February 2007, have always stood out from the multitude of K-pop artists, and are successful abroad, because of their unique sense of fun, their smart, girly femininity, and, as they define it, their hip, funky style!

Their latest MV look (see below - picture and MV) has to be taken into consideration as the perfect mix of seasonal colours (turquoise, lime, sunshine, sea and navy blue ), garments (two colour shiny stockings, leggings, sheer rib, short sleeve tunics) and shoes (wedges, platforms and -they're back!- Doc. Martens).

And, last but not least, the girls take a really fresh and personal approach to the style of the '80,

both wearing tailored denim little dresses, tops, shorts and skirts, and a very exact mish-mash of pop colours.

So, look out for the Wonder Girls on youtube and we'll keep following their music and looks.

For the time being...Wonder Girls FIGHTING!!
