RAQUEL ALLEGRA LABEL COMING TO ADL SOON!

Filed under: designers — alexandradellago @ 10:53 am

 


Designer and musician Raquel Allegra originally moved to Los Angeles to pursue her singing career, while working her requisite day job on the floor at Barnerys New York. Her clients often asked her about the vintage tees she redesigned and wore. These discerning clothing connoisseurs quickly formed a ravenous Raquel Allegra following. As the demand grew and the designer needed a more steady supply of tees, she discovered what would become the trademark of her bourgeoning line, namely cast off prison tees from LA County Jail. These individually hand-dyed and deconstructed pieces have been featured on the pages of Vogue and Elle, and are worn by tastemakers including Agyness Dean, Kate Moss, The Olsens, Erin Wasson and Kate Lanphear.

What this Blog is about…

 

…yes, of course its about advertising my alexandra del lago store and letting you know what just came in, what is coming, what I’m working on and what I’m lusting after… however I would also like to make it a space where you can get inspired by fashion.. a space where I’ll share what and who inspires me.. about what is happening overseas –as that IS where it is ALL happening really! Nothing against SA, I love this country with all my being! There is no better place to live than right here, but lets face it- fashion is not one of our forte!!

BUT, I am on a mission to change that, and that is what this blog is about J

 

The Sartorialist, and the stylish people he blogs about has been and is one of my main sources of inspiration– see http://thesartorialist.blogspot.com – reminding me that fashion is so much more than following trends… its about expressing who you are, playing with the personalities within and letting them all play together…just for fun!

 

The following photos are some of my favorite images from The Sartorialist:

 


 

How simply classy is this??

 


Anna Dello Russo (the lady in leopard) fashion director at Vogue Nippon… no one can pull off off the wall dresses the way she does!

 


 


 

Wouldn’t it be nice if Cape Town ladies would go for lunch looking like this? It certainly would be a feast for my eyes!!

 


I just love the simplicity of this outfit!

 



…key pieces that make the outfit..

 



Besides posting about what goes on in my store and my fashion-filled head, I’ll also post and share whatever I think is worth sharing and as soon as I have more than a handful of followers I will start some totally random give-aways and competitions…

so start following me NOW!

 

Love

Me
