fail-proof

Here at Electricsekki, denim cut-offs are a fail-proof summer staple.  They've been around for decades without ever becoming passe, but it was Erin Wasson and her army of 'model-off-duty' friends that have really brought these back recently. Wear them to the beach, then throw on a pair of chunky ankle boots and they're immediately perfect for a night on the town. Our current favourites? Definitely cult-favourite Aussie label, One Teaspoon; we have yet to find a more perfect pair of meticulously trashed denim shorts!

spotted: pinto in som on glamour

The gorgeous Freida Pinto wears this adorable printed two-piece from Peter Som's SS '11 collection on the cover of Glamour for May.  She's totally reinventing my idea of the "bombshell" -- work it, Freida!

spotted: sienna in head-to-toe T8T

Here's the beautiful Sienna Miller rep-ing her line, Twenty8Twelve, in a head-to-toe look, featuring the Delphy jumper and Sienna jeans.  We love how she spices up her outfit with a bit of pony-hair leopard by adding the Jadin belt. Can you say style icon?

spotted: rumi in 'kiss of death'

Here's Rumi from Fashiontoast at the RETNA party in NYC rocking my personal favourite One Teaspoon piece from their SS11 collection, the KISS OF DEATH dress with a pearly bustier. I like how she layered it with a simple tee underneath to tone down the sexiness of the piece.  So 90's! The dress is available in stores now for a steal at just $2,199; got to have it!

horace @ london fashion week a/w 11

This footage of the Horace show at London Fashion Week A/W11 almost makes us wish it was winter already so we can rock these stellar pieces!  At least it's something to look forward to when the months start to get cool again.
