The latest collection by one of my favourite new designers, Samantha Cole, is an equally a visual surrealist treat as her previous collection. Entitled “Warrior”, the new collection displays Cole’s mastery of blending fashion with art and sculpture, a talent that see’s her create some truly original silhouettes. What is particularly striking about Cole’s work though is her ability to craft unusual structured forms, which on paper shouldn’t translate to wearability, but in reality are figure flatteringly so.

Artistic Mouth Glitter (GALLERY): This collection of flaming and bejeweled lips are very artistic and extremely provocative. This collection of flaming and bejeweled lips are very artistic and extremely provocative. I particularly like the jewelry-encrusted lips on the first image in the gallery, with the black nails, the pale skin and the overall Gothic look. The entire collection is very aesthetically appealing and creative, and the explosive display of artistic workmanship and combination of colors is outstanding.

Black Cashmere Cord Waistcoat Derek Lawlor Collection Black Cashmere Cord Waistcoat Derek Lawlor is a contemporary knitwear designer who has received great praise for his innovative work since showcasing his first collection at London Fashion Week in 2009. Each of his Haute Couture creations are entirely handmade and take between two to three weeks to complete. The designer has been Inspired by shapes and structures of Japanese armor and Architecture. This unique knitting technique involves the use of wax cord as thread, which is weaved through lace patterns to create free flowing organic shapes on tight-fitting cashmere.

Closing at the front with a hook fastening, the waistcoat is long at the front and has a cropped appearance at the back. This versatile piece has been made using the softest cashmere and wax cotton cord. This is a perfect example of Derek Lawlor's impeccable skill and revolutionary ability as a knitwear designer. This is a bespoke piece which is entirely handcrafted and can take up two to three weeks to be made. Please contact us for more information. £2,625 €2,809 (approx) $3,675 (approx)

headphone cord is a common piece of material but if worked by Marc Jacobs' hands for Louis Vuitton, its now one of this season's most fashion forward accessories. Meet the Headphone Bracelet from Louis Vuitton's Spring/Summer 2010 collection. Inspired by the headphones worn by DJs, the bracelet is skillfully crafted from materials such as calf leather, metal and lacquer. It also features an innovative magnetic closure system and a Louis Vuitton signature engraved on top of the bracelet. It may look too "out there" but if worn and styled suitably, it would definitely add spark on your outfit. Headphone Bracelet comes in two colors: Gold and Gray and is available exclusively at Louis Vuitton stores. Price will be posted soon.

Peter Philips, global creative director of Chanel Makeup, created a simple yet stunning spring 2010 beauty collection. Les Impressions De Chanel is a line of clean, classic neutrals that makes every woman feel pretty without piles of face paint. It's about enhancing, illuminating, and highlighting without tons of color — effortlessly chic and naturally beautiful. Here are five reasons why we love Chanel: 1. After seasons of crazy nail colors, it's refreshing to go back to the basics. 2. Natural is sexy. Sometimes the best kind of pretty is the one that doesn't make a splashy statement. 3. The powders are almost too pretty to touch. 4. Every season the house creates an item to covet. Remember how fast the Jade polish sold out this fall? 5. We're dying to see what Peter Philips has on tap for next season.

We already know that the Chanel brand wants to conquer your nails, lips, purses, and—with the advent of Chanel's temporary tattoos—the top layers of your epidermis, so what surface will Chanel conquer next? How about your forehead? Art student Ryan McSorley thinks so. In his final project for a product design class at Central Saint Martins, Ryan created Skin by Chanel, a collection of skincare standbys including a cleanser, toner, and moisturizer, but with an unexpected addition: There's also a headband that imprints the double C's on your forehead, cheek, or facial surface of choice. If his prediction about the future of extreme branding ever comes true, people won't have to ask you what moisturizer you're using—the answer will be written on your face. (Notcot)

When we buy shoes, we'll actually wear them, which means that the lifespan of our spindly stilettos doesn't justify their pricetag. Wedges and heavy-duty boots are our footwear of choice, and Swedish label Minimarket stocks some of the best options out there. Their spring '10 collection doesn't disappoint! There's a terribly chic cap-toed boot with a wooden platform (it comes in a more understated blacked-out version, too), a cobalt version of their classic back-zip wedge...and don't get us started on those tan lace-ups. We dare you to find us a sleeker, more practical shoe. And if shoes aren't your thing, they've got a covetable collection of sunglasses and purses‐including patent and suede wristlets and studded caps that are nearly too sweet for words.

Catching a flash of a leopard boot and football-shaped baguette last season was enough to have us sitting on the edges of our proverbial seats in anticipation for high-res images of Alexander Wang's spring 2010 collection. After all, the mop-topped charmer's accessories are on a winning streak, with every one of his studded, embossed, and cracked leather goodies selling out faster than you can say "How much for these?". But that was last season during the heyday of the tough-as-nails trend, and as the spikes-'n'-chains thing fizzes out, we were worried that Alex might not be able to play catch-up quickly enough. But, from these product shots, we really had nothing to be concerned about, with playful heels with an athletic kick, a graphic update on the Coco bag, and that leather clutch that you might want to think twice about hiking down the end zone.

Rock Star Rebel Works just as well with distressed denim and black leather as with polished pink and tailored flats…who doesn’t love a little rock-n-roll in their wardrobe? The silvered crystal beads flash like paparazzi bulbs (but without the hassle!) and how do we even begin to describe the fabulous-ness of those wings? From the 1950s, the black plastic feathered ornaments (earrings, unbelievably) are elegantly layered and then studded with a single rhinestone. A gunmetal clasp with chain is adjustable at back, from 17-18" long. Rock on. Collection: Elva
