Fashion: All

Promises, Promises

New Year's Resolutions from the Fashion Flock: Alex Wang, Erin Wasson, The Selby, and more... By Christene Barberich


A brand new year is upon us (thank heavens!!), and in honor of ushering in 2009, we decided to check in with some very stylish friends about what they're planning, promising, and putting at the top of their resolution lists. As for us, we resolve to continue to make the inter-web an utter hot-zone of good vibes and good fashion. That, and read Baudelaire. And try bikram yoga…again.

susanna-lau-nyr.jpgSusanna Lau, Fashion Guru/Blogger, Style Bubble: "My New Year's resolution is to buy more of the right stuff, less of the shit stuff…oh, and to get a bloody sewing machine in the house!"






Alexander Wang, Designer: "Hmmm I haven't really made any new year's resolutions—I find that its better to surprise myself than to have expectations I can't keep. But I guess if I had to make one it would be to eat more organic…no junk food. Except for maybe pineapple buns!"

harley-viera-newton-nyr.jpgHarley Viera-Newton, Model, DJ, and Musician: "My New Year's resolution is to sleep more and drink less…I've yet to see a resolution come to fruition, but it's the thought that counts, right?"
