Looking "Lang"

And to keep with my terrible wonderful puns, I give you a little more unconventional pun: looking "Lang". 

To understand this pun, I'm going to need to give you a bit of a Chinese (Cantonese) lesson. 

Lang = Beautiful 

And voila, you've just learned a bit of Chinese!  To fully understand my pun, I must now inform you that while looking beautiful is all fine and dandy, I mean it specifically in reference to the great Helmut Lang. 

This is one ready-to-wear S/S collection that I wish I could catch in lower end stores.  I'm adoring the balanced use of flowing sheers mixed with intricate knots to create a look of clean complexity.  Though the tan lines from these tops would be quite a shame, their unique elegance makes up for that.  With awesome straps like that, it would definitely dress up any casual jeans ensemble for everyday practicality.  A more or less simple collection, helped by edgy cuts and soft sheers- now that's my kind of style.

*Sidenote: Gee, maybe I should stop with the puns...I don't think puns are meant to be explained this thoroughly.
