Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian in LOVE Magazine
Seriously, are those really their names? I’ve missed this whole Kardashian revolution and have no idea who the “Kardashian Sisters”, oh famed tabloid darlings, really are. What do they do exactly? How many are there? Do all their names start with a K? Well anyway, these two have a vintage noir, femme fatale look going strong in this shoot for LOVE Magazine, shot by Patrick Demarchelier. Enjoy!

J’adore!!! Unfortunately I don’t know who is the maker of these fabulous tights otherwise I’d own them. Let’s not forget to mention how stunning this photo is. Ah….maybe one day the Killer Diller girls will do a photo shoot like this….

Top Picks: Sonia Rykiel Spring 2010 Ready-to-Wear Collection

Ahh, so much to love in this one. Clingy striped sweaters, waist belts, pencil skirts, retro disc fascinators, crystal-covered cats eye glasses, seamed Cuban heel stockings (even in purple!) and rhinestone-covered strappy platform heels. But most of all – happy, laughing, smiling, dancing models! How wonderful.
These photos (infinitely more gorgeous than the official catwalk shots) from The Cherry Blossom Girl.

Bebaroque Hosiery
![]()
Having been seeing a lot of swing girls at events wearing embellished stockings (remember Katie Anderson’s floral patterned stockings here?), I was delighted to stumble across Scottish company Bebaroque. I love the sailor blue pinup prints on opaque white tights!




They also have these cute opaque tights with bows – yes, the bows are on the tights, not the shoes:
