I came across the rather obscure luxirare.com this afternoon while blog surfing and my eyes were met with some of the most unique clothing and accessories I have seen in quite some time. Luxirare carries vintage and handcrafted items and is really something quite special.
The creator of Luxirare (a recent graduate of Parson's university) who remains faceless and nameless, states in her manifesto that, "Instead of typical 'collections' or batches of ideas which are grouped into 'seasons', the goal is to move towards a season-less, collection-less presentation, promoting a constant renewal of thought." I find this notion to be a rare one, particularly in the fashion world.
I can really see Luxirare going places.
The images below are simply a taste of some of my favorite pieces from shopluxirare.com. I would also love for you to comment and let me know what you think, or if you have any post requests!
First and foremost, this handcrafted one-of-a-kind Luxirare iPad bag REALLY caught my eye. In fact, it's making me want an iPad. Nonetheless, I would use it as a regular messenger satchel. It's clearly of such high quality. The hardware, the fabrics used.... you can really tell a lot of love and had work went into the sleek design and construction of this luxurious messenger.
This handcrafted Luxirare fur tail bag accessory is quite trendy and of the moment (see Chanel's Fall 2010 Ready-to-wear collection), however, I really like the fluffy white version. It's so soft and luxurious it would be the perfect complement to an oversized bag for fall.
I love, love, LOVE this vintage skirt. I don't even think I need to explain why. It would look phenomenal with a black tee and my DVF Opal wedges.
Finally, this vintage necklace makes the perfect accesory all year round. I'm picturing it with a black knit turtleneck and black wool pleated miniskirt. Ahhhh dreaming of fall outfits already!
Ciao!
