TiC Pick: Cage Heels
Ever since YSL came out with their version of the cage heels for SS 09, we've seen them splashed in editorial spreads and fashion blogs everywhere. A wearable piece of modern art in its own right, they might snag your toes as you pull them on, but those grid lines are worth dying for anyway!

Valentine's Day: YSL Manifesto Takes To The Streets
The YSL Manifesto is due to strike again on Valentine's Day, featuring no less than Claudia Schiffer working her magic in the Hollywood Hills. If you happen to be in Hong Kong, Paris, New York, Tokyo or Milan; look out for the newspaper-style publication that will be passed out by the thousands on the streets tomorrow.

TiC Pick: Multitasking Wristlets
By: Yu Shan
You’ll never have to pay so little for a YSL bracelet, ever. Yes, us at TiC are all about fashion on a friendly budget, and we won’t deny that rooting through vintage shops or junkyard sales give us infinite joy. But come on, all of us want a piece of a designer as well, and here’s your chance to combine both.

Accessories took the spotlight at the Prada Resort 2009 collection in New York a mere 2 days ago, with the clothes taking a step back which was a rather disappointing turn for Prada this time around, I mean windcheaters for night? It changed focus, to favour rich, sumptuous Indian jewels, heavily laden and encrusted with every colour of the rainbow in order. For the past few seasons, we have seen the rise of the accessory - the gladiator sandal at Balenciaga, the pastel hued star shaped necklace at YSL, the shoe bootie just about everywhere, and the alcohol monitoring anklet at Chanel.
RIP YSL

As some of you may have already known, Yves Saint Laurent passed away at the age of 71 on Sunday. Widely hailed as one of the greatest designers of the 20th century, he had many fans among which was Catherine Deneuve, who was always to be seen at his shows (pictured above backstage with the designer).
