I didn't think much of this Phillip Lim 3.1 blouson sleeve shirt until I saw close ups of the fabric, and now I kinda want it!

Hanii Y is quickly becoming one of my favorites. This balloon sleeve jacket is so cute and looks soft & comfy. Wishing I had it to wear to work to brighten up a dreary day somewhat

Black and tan... Adorable ruffle trench coat by R.E.D. Valentino

Yes, the menswear-inspired look is in. And I love it, like I love the edgy and sophisticated look of this Dandy Vest Jacket by Elizabeth and James (the Olsens' newest line)

Wanting these Cleo boots by 12th Street Cynthia Vincent

Trench coat by Golden Goose. Liking the quirky buttons at the bottom, the super sleek belt, and all the interesting seams

Okay i love love love this shirt by Henrik Vibskov! Dunno how well you can see it in this pic, but it's got "elaborate yet still discrete deep v vest seaming details". I'm a sucker for clever, subtle details!

Nice Collective's take on the classic peacoat. I love the zipper details which keeps the coat from being just another peacoat

Comfy cozy pullover with cashmere blend trim by Trovata

I can't get with high waisted pants, but high waisted skirts are rad, like this Alida skirt by Miss Sixty

Grey on grey. Something about the simplicity of this Carolina bag by Posse New York really drew me to it

Pullover Hoodie by B. Son (the men's line by Rebecca Beeson). It's pretty plain and simple, except for the interesting little diagonal button detail at the collar, and I know this stuff is soft

Kinda curious about these Stella McCartney satin and patent pumps... they've got an angled platform.. I wonder what it feels like to walk in them?

Derrick Cruz of Black Sheep & Prodigal Sons and THECAST collaborated on a series of handmade accessories for their Spring/Summer 2008 collection.

Found this via BagSnob. Love the smooth curves on this wooden (black walnut) clutch by Ports 1961

Simple but sophisticated. The Kabuki tie dress by James Perse. And it has pockets!

Ooohh my most favorite boots I've seen this season. The Kittie Vintage Tibetan Castoro Boot by Modern Vintage Shoes. Love the shape, the heel, and the strap that wraps underneath! Also available in black

I usually hate pleats on pants, but they actually look kinda cute on these comfy-looking wide leg trousers by Rory Beca.

Fun chunky knit hat by Twinkle. It's called the "Sword and Stone" hat.. and it does sorta look like a helmet you'd wear in battle

Pretty cashmere sweater hoody over at Stewart & Brown

For guys looking for a long coat that's different from the standard trench coat, check out this one by Kosmetique Label

I love unique details like the draped strap on this wool voile dress by Helmut Lang

I am shocked that I'm posting something by L.A.M.B., but I can't help it... I find this jacket to be undeniably cute

I think it's safe to say it's officially coat season for us at Notcouture. Loving the high collar and black and white stripeyness of this one by Madison Marcus

This dress by Nave made me go "ooh!" when I saw it. Very nice rich color for Fall as well.

Also saw this cocoon coat by Mon Petit Oiseau the other day at Doe. So adorable and looks cozy

Spotted this cute Mike & Chris Quentin trench coat the other day and I was glad to see that it was made of canvas rather than hoodie material.

Yes, this coat by Mayle is very cute, but what really draws me to it is the materials it's made of... alpaca and silk!

Shiny and dangerous. Wear this crossed knife necklace by In God We Trust when you're in no mood to deal with other people's crap

I imagine this duofold hoodie (actually looks like a hooded jacket to me...) by Marc by Marc Jacobs is like a nice warm hug. (awww.) Seriously though, I want this.

Aww who can resist a guy with a dog.. or at least with a Penguin shirt with a fun and cute little dog pattern print on it.

Morphine Generation's Byron jacket. A nice dark grey, and the high collar will keep your neck warm. I can see this being a nice daily jacket

I can't ever seem to find the perfect casual black jacket. I like this one though.. Converse by John Varvatos

Cool shape on these Pedro Garcia Rosalyn patent pumps. I also love hidden details so the label with all the info on the inside amuses me too

This bucket bag by Geren Ford would be pretty plain if it weren't for the perforated leather.. it makes all the difference and I'm sort of obsessing over it!

Loving the not too shiny distressed metallic finish on this T-strap pump by Frye. It's also got a 1/2" hidden platform for a little extra height

Kinda sporty knit hoodie by Mayle. Makes me think of what a Mike & Chris hoodie might look like if it were knit

Love the heel on these shoes by Corso Como

Thankfully it's not super hot here in SF like it seems to be in the rest of California (and the US?) so I can think about jackets like this cute dashed stripe one from Marc by Marc Jacobs

Burberry Prorsum trench coat. Awesome rows of buttons

The goth in me loves these oxidized silver linked rings by Miki Tanaka. One ring has "memento mori" engraved on it, and "21st century" on the other

There's a sweet, sophisticated simplicity to this strapless mini dress by Hanii Y

Behold, yet another hooded scarf for Fall 2007. This one's by Mike & Chris, and a bit more dramatic than the others we've seen.

Cute coat by Hanii Y. "Heavy knee-length coat with mandarin collar, princess sleeves, and double layer top with 4 front buttons and attatched belt."
