NYFW: Day Two

by Rachel Lynch


Day Two of NYFW has been the wildest by far. I was out of my apartment from 8am-4am. But hey, that's just the fashion week life. 

I sat front row at the Mongol show at 10AM, and was invited backstage afterwards to meet the designer (such a cutie) and see the collection first-hand. I love the madness that is backstage after a show, half-dressed models, photographers and the most random reports from all over the world. It's really like nothing else you've ever seen. 

After that I headed to another show at noon for Ese Azenabor, which was a really cool mix of dresses and textures. Then at two, I headed up to studio 450 to see the Nina Athanasiou show. Her stuff was so dope, I took a few phone photos from the front row but ugh, it was so hard to capture. There were these little blonde girls, with blonde eyebrows wearing leather mini belted dresses and tan thigh-high boots. That shit was magical. 

Afterwards, I went to the West Village to hang at the NYLON pop up lounge. Within an hour, I had to head out to the Lulus party. After the Lulus party, I ran back downtown for the Chromat show, and then Brooklyn for the after party. The party was amazing at this really dope bar in Williamsburg that had a skate park inside. We danced till 4am with the best of music. 

Needless to say, when I got home, I passed out and couldn't believe I got up the next day to do more shows and the Galore Mag party.

Lots more coming from Fashion Week, including a cool feature with Lulus, so stay tuned! LA in two days!! Wooo! Sunshine!! <3 xx

NYFW: Day One

by Rachel Lynch


Hey, hey guys! NYFW has been a wild blur so far, I feel like I'm hardly home aka able to update the blog. But it will all end soon & i'll be back in LA in 3 days! 

For the first day of fashion week, where I watched the amazing Darkoh menswear presentation, I wore this full look for MLTD. The hat is by UNIF & the track set is by Joyrich. I'm so so into these colors, especially this jacket. I can't wait to wear it in the California sunshine next week. 

much love & more coming

"i love you, honeybear"

by Rachel Lynch


"Oh honeybear, my love, you're the one I want to watch the ship go down with. The future can't be real, I barely know how long a moment it. Unless we're naked getting high on the mattress, while the global market crashes.

 Mascara, blood, ash and cum on the rorschach sheets where we make love. 

Everything is doomed and nothing will be spared. 

Just one cadillac will do to get us out to where we're going. I brought my mother's depression, you've got your father's scorn and a wayward aunt's schizophrenia. 

But everything is fine, don't give into despair

cause i love you, honeybear."

sugar-frosted sunset

by Rachel Lynch


Weetzie blonde blew down sunset in a 1950's green cadillac and her best friends. They wore matching neon platforms and oversized sunnies. After a long day of snapping film photos and polaroids on Hollywood Boulevard, they cruised through the Hollywood Hills as the pink sky filled what was left of the crystal-blue day. They spun down from the mountains and headed to Sunset Boulevard, to get dinner at one of Weetzie's favorite diners. Mel's Diner was full of classic turquoise booths and sparkle pink chairs. They drank strawberry milkshakes and shared huge plates of fries. Weetzie smiled, she was surrounded by all the love she ever needed.

LA Fox

by Rachel Lynch


The desert jungle. Born blonde in the USA. I used to wonder which coast I belonged on, now I can see that it's both. I'm defined by neither but express myself in each. Honey flows from the sun on west while others speed on the subway in the east. 

In LA, I learned to wake up early, but take it slow. I sat outside under the sky and danced on the streets of silverlake in my 6-inch platforms. I saw reflections in my aviators, and fell in love with the feel of it all.

you must be one of the dreamers

by Rachel Lynch


You must be one of the dreamers. One of the wild ones, whose eyes are as deep blue as the skies. Expansive and endless like your mind. Living in a perpetual state of more, one sentence always bleeds into the next. Now that it's over, I can breath again - I can see all the colors, hear the sounds, feel another's touch and express words. They say that is real which never changes, but I'm pretty sure everything does.

LA Boss Girl

by Rachel Lynch


Los Angeles, Boss ass bitch. Rodeo drive and a need for adventure. Stars in her eyes and flowers in her hair. They grow where she walks, platinum star. Speeding down sunset with the top back, her feet up on the dash, and the stones on loud, this was where she first fell in love.

all west coast and divinity ghosts

by Rachel Lynch


Sedated on a sun high. Desert lips, brush up against it all. I feel the sun bleed through my skin and i’m saturated. Mind sinks into a warm-soak, I throw my legs up and smoke in the van. It’s all too real, the most natural of highs. Shaken by the infinite variety, I let my left hand slip onto you. We’re in it, and we’re free. I pray and I see it all passing. No, I never ask for anything to stay. Did you find your fear? Do you feel it? I see it all as flowing, I get over death as if it never happened. Perpetual and eternal, I am one with it all.
