Ridiculousness makes life grand.

The concept (and price!) of this Rodarte pencil case is pretty

outlandish and thats exactly what makes it so wonderful.

Buy it for your nine year old niece. She's bound to be the

How to rock

2010-06-01T17:06:00.000-07:00

Style inspiration from girls with guitars this week.
Are you wondering how to rock?
Its easy: tiny jean tores, spiky Givenchy cuff, bad attitude, messy face-hiding hair
and viola!
You're ready for the stage, kid.

A mix

2010-05-26T11:38:00.001-07:00

Pretty, young, and all mixed up.
Our stylish and unlikely pairing of the week is
Florals and stripes.
The "right" way to pair?
Stick within one color scheme and add a solid piece (my pick was a cardigan)
for cohesion.
Happy Mixing!

Pyfling has a mostly fem readership but for the boys that follow

I thought I'd include some man tips for this week's installation

These tips come from designer Tom Ford

via an article that is, at least, four years old.

Oh the things we find when we're clearing out our inbox.

So, without further ado--

5 things a sexy man needs according to Tom Ford

1. GOOD MANNERS
2. EXPENSIVE SOAP
3. A NEWSPAPER
4. A WELL CUT DARK SUIT
5. A PAIR OF DARK DENIM JEANS

Examples above include: NY Times, Levi's 501 straight leg jeans

, How to Be A Gentleman by John Bridges,

Wool suit by Hugo Boss and finally Kiehls facial fuel.

Often referred to as the Texan Tuxedo or, more fondly, the Canadian Tuxedo, the all over denim look seems to be making its way back into the limelight for spring (AND FALL!)

This post from Elle advises on how to make your denim dress-up fail safe:

(1)WASH- pair washes that contrast and complement one another.

(2)SIMPLICITY- avoid patches or acid wash

(3)ACCESSORIZE- add a signature belt, scarf, shoes or jewel to break the look up.

See pictures above for inspiration.

I find style "advice" in the most unlikely of places. Beyond the obvious (dress manuals and biographies of fashion's most fab), I've found wardrobing wisdom interspersed throughout history books, law journals and even a military field guide. I thought sharing this unlikely wisdom might be a fun new feature for PYFLING.

Lets start with a standard:

Coco Chanel

"A woman who doesn't wear perfume has no future."

"Dress shabbily and they remember the dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman."

Well Coco, If Commes Des Garcons, Play (The unofficial scent of PYfling) were a dress, I believe it would look like this.

How's that for Impeccable?

PYfling is nominating Daveigh Chase (in red) as "it girl" of the moment. We're way into Miss Thang's killer stare. I'm so looking forward to seeing more of this Pretty Young Fling.

Oh and P.S. ..check out her snotty 'tude on HBO's Big Love

2009-11-07T18:31:00.001-08:00

Its been a while since we paired a bunch of random stuff that doesnt go together.

I want to pair these two, as I continue to feel inspired by a regular casual/glam pairing.

My Pretty Knees

Yes, Yes, Yes.
You'll probably need some sparkling socks for your fall/winter closet.

Embellished socks for Miu Miu but cheapo embellished tights would be just as good.

Buy @ net-a-porta
