’Im just going to gloat the tiniest bit
and say we called it. Self-expression, pins, and chick flicks
are rebounding on the fashion scene. Each of these trends is
gaining ground in new and interesting ways this month and has everything to do
with Rachael Zoe‘s much repeated, spot-on quote, “Style is a way to say who you are without having to speak.”
This all ties in to this flutter (which is quietly escalating to a drumbeat) of
a social under current about individualism and putting quality time aside — without interacting with your phone every second.
Designers take note. We’re all looking for new ways to express ourselves. So when everyone zigs. You zag. That’s what the
month of May is all about
The iPhone or smart phone is
so ubiquitous it was only a matter of time that someone figured out how to turn
that upside down. Violá. Case-Mate is the smarty pants and I’m hooked. You just select your
device and you’re good to go with #NAKEDTOUGH custom designs. Besides gifting yourself,
this is the perfect bridesmaid, party favor, and conversation starter.
One of my favorite
designers, ever, Marc Jacobs, who I spent a few minutes speaking with at The Met Gala,
has such a stellar SS16 collection he is up for another CFDA Award.
Let’s give some credit where it is due. Always on the cutting edge,
Jacobs may just be the one who kicked off the allover mixed-metal charm embellishment trend
that is making it’s way on to bags, and all
about individualism. My personal favorite is his new Marc Jacobs Wingman “shopper” look that multi-tasks perfectly for summer. I was obsessed
with it and and searched high and low to find it. The Bonus. An interior pouch
for your passport and other goodies. We couldn’t resist photographing ourselves
with our dream summer tote outside Neiman’s in Beverly Hills (where I actually found it). It’s already
traveled to New York and back with me. And yes, it’s perfect with denim.
I saw these all over the
streets of New York while I was there for The Met Gala and a slew of parties
and meetings. Luxe slippers and the Gucci Princetown seems to be on the top of everyone’s list. Love
them and the luxe just rolled out of bed look
Summer is almost here and distressed denim in white is the key to brightening up my
wardrobe. I personally love pairing white with grey or black. The one caveat
they seem to go fast as they are seasonal.
This is my favorite indulgence. A chick flick. O.K. A Jane
Austin chick
flick. There is a new adaption that is just hitting the theaters this Friday. Love
& Friendship. Starring lovely Kate Beckinsale and Chloe
Sevigny, the story is set in the 1790s with the widowed Lady Susan Vernon
seeking refuge with her in-laws as rumors about her private life circulate
through society. While staying at the estate, Lady Susan decides to find
herself and her daughter, Frederica, a husband. Complications and intrigue
ensue.
