My booty from the Barneys Warehouse sale
Yesterday I hauled it over to 17th between 7th and 8th Avenues for the bi-annual Barneys Warehouse sale. Lucky for me there were no lines and incredible bargains to be had. It was more civilized than in year’s past and there was no grabbing, pushing and fighting for that Alåia... Read More
Talking trends at MBFW Fall 2012
So far on the runways for Fall 2012 fitted looks, military influences, a continuation of the peplum, and fierce rough fashion are just of few of the hot new emerging trends. In sharp contrast to Spring’s flowy looks that dominated the runways, I am seeing a lot of menswear- inspired looks... Read More
Get mesmerized
If you have been paying attention to fashion lately, you might have noticed all the trippy psychedelic videos that have been appearing on your screen. No, nobody spiked your Koolaid. Its just a phantasmagoric moment in fashion videography meant to hypnotize us fashion zombies into it wanting (needing) all of the latest... Read More
On a shoestring
Need a mid-week pick-me-up? Raise your hand. Well if you did, I can’t see it, but maybe soon I will be able to. Come Wednesday, I know I’m ready to do the happy dance. Especially when I see a pair of fabulous heels. I don’t know if you had a... Read More
Catch the fall fashion train before it’s gone
It’s about time I put up this video about Fall trends. Better NOW than never. Even though it’s mid-November (as I write this here in NY, it’s nearing 60 degrees), we only have 40 days till Hanukah begins and 45 days till Christmas. Wow, that is really soon. Although this... Read More
Versace for H&M. Be Bold.
Christy Turlington. Photograph by Irving Penn, VOGUE, 1990. Last night Versace launched their collection for H&M. Another collaboration between mega fashion house and mass market retailer. A bad-ass rock-n-roll collection. And it is on its way to stores, November 19th. I think the whole collaboration between high fashion x mass... Read More
One fabulous leather dress
I normally do not post a “Part 2” about anything (way too boring), but I’ve had many requests for a follow-up on my leather story. I was called onto post pictures of myself wearing my leather dress and how to style it correctly. Before I ever started blogging, I took... Read More
Tom Ford – Fashion Etc.
Last Sunday I tuned into the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) to catch the documentary on Tom Ford, Visionaries: Inside the Creative Mind. If there was ever a reason to watch the OWN channel, this was it. The documentary profiled Ford not only as a designer and icon in the fashion industry, but... Read More
Chanel Spring 2012 Runway
For Spring 2012, Chanel debuted an under- the- water sea- scape fantasy theme. And the clothes lived up to these magical expectations. There were sea shells, shine, pretty pastels, and pearls, comprised of a pale palette rich with iridescence and shimmer. I especially love all of the shiny accents... Read More
