Calista is a jaw dropping, gush worthy, swoon inducing, rad new label based in NYC. The fabulous designer duo, Brigitte Kum and Sofia Shannon from IN, USA and Beunos Aires respectively are both gorgeous, lovely girls. Their collection is all unstructured lace dresses (an ode to menswear that Brigitte is OBSESSED with (Sister!), leather, leather and more leather (works for me) and luxe basics like silk tanks and plaid tops (not shirts but tops). Updated versions of the basic leather skirt, etc. made me want to die and spend my college fund on the entire line.
Wearing: Calista Jamie Gingham hazel top, Calista Inda Scallop leather skirt, Charles and Keith zipper booties, Boyy Sylvester bag in black, 1986 braided silver necklace.
So I love how the back of this top because it makes me feel like Batman. Okay, stop staring at me like I'm a nut. Stop it. Full disclosure: Iactually almost ran around my room shouting "Batman in the HOUUUSE" with the back flaring like a freakin badass plaid cape behind me. I can't remember when I've felt cooler.
Also, I've always been a little apprehensive of wearing like a leather dress? Maybe because I'm a measly 5 feet 4 inches and I maintain that you need to be a minimum of 5 feet 6 to don one of them black beauties. So the obvious solution is a leather skirt. I love the Inda because of the cute detailing at the waist and because it isn't bodycon. A bodycon leather skirt only looks good on Daria Werbody, take it from me in writing. And that is because she is a goddess from outer space (hiii Daria!). So consequently, you can feel like a badass without like, looking like an extra from Dynasty.
Boyy does these gorgeous, somewhat utilitarian bags and this season they've gone really big on custom metal clasps on the pieces in some form or the other. I got this fucking amazing clutch but more on that later. This one is seriously a life saver because I've been looking for a cool fringed bag for ages. Originally, I wanted a brown suede version but I loved this one too much to pass it up. I also really love that it has these teeny chain link strands peeking from beneath, giving it a hardware edge, you know?
Oh, and thanks to Sample Sale Forum for interviewing me here!
Later!

That top actually looks really cool. I would have done the batman thing as well. You do look great though. The pictures are so pretty. Also LOVE those shoes.
Thx for your comment, love!!! Love this label and these pieces are great. I like the idea of a plaid top (as you specified) versus a button-up shirt. Fresh!
Stay fabulous!

the whole look is awesome.. I specially loved the skirt!
you have a great style.. thanks for visiting my blog btw.. stay cool!
I haven't seen too many leather skirts around. It looks rad on you (-_- I occasionally say things like rad, swell, spiffy. It's just a habit)
If I could pack my bags right now and head off somewhere I'd probably go to South Italy, Cinque Terre. It's so beautiful at night. I would be like my little wonderland...
Damnit! I've just been daydreaming. Oh well...

Fringed stuff rules! I just put leather fringing on the back of a jacket I made http://stylewilderness.blogspot.com/2010/07/ultra-violet.html
Holiday destinations? I'd love to visit all my friends and old haunts in Tokyo although right now it would be sooooo hot... otherwise anywhere that has a beach and sunshine with no danger of getting skin cancer but lets you get a beautiful tan anyway!
gorgeous photos, the skirt is to die for and i love that bag!
