The Buzz from Paris
Yes, it’s over. You can rest your eyes for now. At the bleary end of a runway season, I am exhausted just looking at the shows from Paris. I would love to watch the clothes sway down the catwalk, but from an outsider’s viewpoint, judging from the photos on Vogue.com,... Read More
Monochrome
On the tail-end of January, few things are more comforting than contemplating the new season’s styles. In lieu of what’s to come down the runways next month for Fall 2013 (see: Céline reincarnations of the furry Birkenstock, rainbow shades of emerald), fans of monochromatic dressing, rejoice. I am looking forward to... Read More
Printed Matter
While I love to stock up on classic staples, I also have an intense appreciation for all things fun and whimsical. Call me crazy, yes you can, but I’ve been known to throw on floral pants with a simple white tee one day, and a striped tee with denim overalls... Read More
Fashion Secret
Smack dab in the middle of summer, I am feeling jejune about the fabulousness of my closet including clothing and accessories. Mon Dieu!

In Shoe News
There are a ton of reasons to wear platforms during the summer (BTW, today is the summer solstice) and making your legs look taller and leaner is definitely one of them. Last week’s photo on Instagram featuring this shoe and all sorts of cool-ass accessories has left me begging for answers... Read More
Sheer bliss
Thanks to the Fall and Spring runways, not to mention street style, sheer fabrics are having a moment. Sheer usually means it is practically see-through, intimating that you are going to need to wear something underneath. This trend popped up during Fashion Week in Paris at a number of collections such... Read More
Playing Dress-Up with Pastels
Pastels have resurged back into fashion and designers like Peter Som, Jason Wu, Philip Lim and others flirted with them this Spring. For me, maybe it is the over saturation of blinding neon in the stores, but the refreshing soft blues, pinks, and mint greens – a Ladurée macaron palette... Read More
Day 7 interruption
Day 7 of NYFW has reared its head and I seem to be plugging through the end of this week unscathed and smiling. Besides an iPhone that runs out of juice, therefore searching any bar or restaurant for a charging station, fashion week is coming to a close with a... Read More
