Red Velvet Fur & Sunshine Gold
This photo of MK Olsen is just completely awesome. It looks effortless, yet modern, but also has a hint of old glamour. I absolutely love the gold accessories against the black gloves. Such beauty. Read More →

I’m an avid magazine reader, so seeing this video for Love Magazine got me really excited. I like the vintage collage of editorial video images. And…they are making an iPad app! Fab. Read More →
Lulus.com Offers A Perfect Summer to Fall Look
I discovered Lulus.com over a year ago on Twitter and have been an avid follower since it provides trendy looks at a very affordable price. One of my favorite looks is the below “summer stroll” collage, that inspires a great summer to fall look. The platform pumps, crocheted socks, and feather hat accessorize this usual summer look for the fall weather. The fringe purse and skinny belt give it a hipster vibe, but the tribal pattern...

Mariah Carey Augmented Reality Perfume Ad – Thumbs Down
I usually applaud brands for testing out emerging media, but this augmented reality use for Mariah Carey’s new perfume “Lollipop Bling” gets a huge thumbs down. First of all, is this meant for fans of the board game “CandyLand”? (i.e. ages 1 to 7) Its hard to tell who this ad is targeting since Mariah is in a sexy pose (surprise suprise) but then it looks like Lisa Frank invaded her photoshoot. (Feel free to check...

Proenza Schouler Ad Campaign
Dear Proenza Schouler, Really, Really? Is that model’s waist even possible? At least in the other shots she looks semi-believable. Even if I ignored the awkward pose and possible photoshopping, I’m not thrilled by this campaign. Three out of the five main looks the model is making the same expression, and not really making me love the new designs. Thanks for the attempt Proenza, but no thanks. Any takers? Click on the photo below... [Read More...]
The First Shoppable Children’s StoryBook (by Ralph Lauren Of Course!)
I’ve been reading tweets from the BlogHer conference all week and kept hearing the buzz about Ralph Lauren’s digital marketing brilliance, but when I saw that the brand created a digital children’s book that was shoppable my jaw kinda dropped. While this book looks cute and whimsical, it has marketing engrained in it from start to finish. The 8 kids in the story are dressed in Ralph Lauren kids gear, hoping to make their mark...

Pretty Yet Practical – Lucy Hale for WhoWhatWear
Ok, so its nowhere near being able to wear a leather pleated skirt, but I instantly fell for this Lucy Hale shoot from Who What Wear. The mod-printed blouse and edgy skirt was a great contradiction that I would definitely be willing to test out this coming fall. The same look could be tested with a different a-line skirt, but I think the key is to make it current is the over-the-knee socks, two-finger ring, and thin metal belt. Brilliantly styled,...

Just Dull or Deja Vu – Why Do Fashion Glossies Repeat Celebs?
It seems that at least once a year you will see Madonna, Drew Barrymore, Victoria Beckham, Jessica Alba, Katie Holmes, Gwyneth Paltrow or Jennifer Aniston on the covers of Elle, W, and Vogue. I understand that they are popular actresses/singers, but what happened to originality? Why do American fashion magazines all look the same and rotate the same celebrities? We all know celebrity sells, and fashion and celebrities these days inter-twine more... [Read More...]
Open Toe Ankle Booties – Summer Fav
I saw this photo today on Lookbook.nu and instantly fell in love with the open toe ankle booties. They are remind my current obsession with the Jeffrey Campbell Tick Wedge, but not as bedazzled. This whole ensemble is quite romantic with the lace cream dress, over-sized neutral blazer, and suede fringe bag. To me, its free spirited, but the ankle booties give it a city vibe! LOVE! Read More →
