kiwis are my favorite fruit.

karen walker is another designer who has recently been making a buzz. the new zealand native made her debut at sydney fashion week in 1998 and has had her work featured in "eternal sunshine of the spotless mind" and on the red carpet by bjork, liv tyler, and jennifer lopez (what a mix!).

her aesthetic is tomboy meets girly, alternative but not overtly so, and cutesy but not nauseating.

pictured below are some looks from her SS08 collection, which was inspired by the Marx brothers' classic "A Day at the Races".
