BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
Any chance you know where to buy one like this? I have a condition that prevents me from being in the sun, and this would be perfect for blocking the rays! i would love to purchase one, myself.
Thanks in advance and LOVE the blog to bits!!!

the burn
August 30th, 2010 / Posted by fp julia / Permalink










burning man starts today, anyone going? i have never been to burning man but its one of those things that i’ve always been really interested in doing. it just looks so primeval and spirited… and maybe a little eerie in these photos by samantha casolari. beautiful though… i think it would be quite an experience. if any of you have been or plan on going, i would love to hear about it!
these photos can also be seen in samantha’s first book which is out now :)

Falls Hot New Looks (Part 3)
August 30th, 2010 / Posted by fp jemma / Permalink
Why we love it
It has come from our love of slips. Sheerness feels so fresh especially going into fall and especially wearing chunky boots with something sheer, we really loved the contrast of pretty and tough. This trend feels so Free People we couldn’t ignore it.
How we’ll wear it
Lacey details and body con slips are something we are known for, so we wanted to freshen them up and bring them on trend. Rather than wearing them underneath, we put them on the outside so they didn’t get hidden. There are so many ways to do this trend. It’s a real easy one to get into straight away and beat the rest of the fashion pack. Just team a chiffon or mesh slip over skinny jeans and throw on an oversized sweater for an understated hint of sheer peeking out from underneath. Or, go for it with a sheer maxi slip over a shorter body con slip and style with chunky boyfriend boots and tough leather jacket to get the whole look.

Hi fp jemma, I love it when you post on the blog especially your styling posts they’re awesome. Wish there was more of this on the blog. I love the idea of roughing up chiffon frills with botfriend boots – amazing style.
