  • NY Fashion Week SS10: Day 4 Recap
    I’ve been so busy these last few days it was nice to get out last night for some fun parties. I hit the town with my friend Christine who is visiting from Paris (she moved from NYC to attend perfumery school, so we had plenty to catch up on!). Our first stop was the Generra boutique opening in the MPD (823 Washington Street). Very cute boutique in an AMAZING location....

  • NY Fashion Week SS10: Day 3 Recap
    Day three was a rainy day so I kept it in the tents with Yigal Azrouel, Twinkle by Wenlan, Charlotte Ronson, and Monarchy. I was hoping to spot Katie Lee Joel at the Yigal show (that would be too good and juicy to be true I suppose!), but alas she was a no-show. The ethereal collection with its expertly draped tops and jackets, sexy loose boyfriend blazers, and “harness”...

  • NY Fashion Week SS10: Day 2 Recap
    It was a morning of tough decisions on Thursday the 10th — the first official day of NY FW — do I go to the BCBG show at the tents or to the Dries Van Noten Q + A at FIT? While BCBG has long been one of my favorite shows to attend (and is always packed to the brim with celebs), I decided to opt for the latter — after all how many times do you get to...

  • NY Fashion Week SS10: Day 1 Recap
    The Spring/Summer New York Fashion Week shows are always a bit like going back to school after summer break. You’ve been taking it easy and basking in the sun when suddenly – with a mix of excitement and anxiety – you are faced with an overwhelmingly busy schedule! While today may have been the first official day of New York Fashion Week, the festivities really...

  • Paris Couture Week AW09: It’s bloomin lovely at Christian Dior!
    John Galliano sent models down the catwalk in their underwear at the first day of Paris’ Couture Fashion Week yesterday. The ‘Fever in the Cabine’ Christian Dior collection was inspired by shows put on in the 50s, and featured models in jackets and knickers, and skirts and bras. Galliano was inspired by a picture of Dior backstage at a show surrounded...

  • Paris Fashion Week: RM by Roland Mouret AW09
    I always look forward to seeing what Roland Mouret has in store for us. Beautifully cut, sophisticated dresses, are you kidding me? I live for his dresses and no one does effortless chic like Mouret, so of course I too was sucked into the allure of the infamous Galaxy dress as worn by every celeb starlet. Maybe that’s why I’ve been willing to let him off the hook...

  • Paris Fashion Week: Louis Vuitton AW09
    If you have ever wondered what Marie Antoinette would have looked like as a courtesan then never fear, because Marc Jacobs can show you. With a little bit of French fancy, a sprinkling of 80s bad taste and a Playboy bunny cherry. It was quite a mix.

  • Paris Fashion Week: Miu Miu AW09
    Oh Miuccia Prada, is there nothing you can’t do? After sending out a fabulous collection for the Prada mainline, the style genius has worked her magic again on Prada’s little sister. With a Hollywood glamour influence, the lines were clean, sleek and of course very very stylish. Fur stoles were recreated to look thoroughly modern and the 50s esque pencil skirts were...

  • Paris Fashion Week: Chloe AW09
    This is only the second show for Chloe’s head of design Hannah MacGibbon. And she has taken it back to its dreamier days of Phoebe Philo. To when Chloe was girly, chic and had a grown up cuteness.
