NYFW AW’14- Trend- Golden
One thing is for sure, Gold is going to be huge come Fall. It has been a steady climber during this round of NYFW, from DVF’s gold finale to Neem Khan’s show stopping power pieces. Its one of those tones that will work on anyone so have at it. Strategically.

NYFW AW’14- Milly, A Gradual Appreciation
I like it when a collection gradually grows from like to love when you see it coming down the runway and by the end of it you are so pleasantly surprised by how much you like it. That was Milly. I confess I’ve often just bypassed this collection as one of those but I’m glad…

Refined Minimalism- Baukjen Spring-Summer Collection
Basics are the bones of a closet, there may be secret weapons and special pieces but what truly makes a wardrobe have staying power are the basics, the jacket, the shirt, the dress, etc. So its no surprise that I find this refreshing collection from Baukjen very appealing, a refinement of the minimal and an…

NYFW AW’14- Dennis Basso- Fur Fury
Sometimes less is more, so much more. Dennis Basso gave us a collection of furs on furs of furs on all kinds of fur, Cruella DeVille would approve.

NYFW AW’14- Madam Herrera- A Lesson In Simplicity

NYFW AW’14- Prabal Almost Out of His Element
From the very first moment I saw one of Prabal Gurung’s creations, one that episode of The City where he asked Olivia Palermo to wear that dress, I fell in love with him. He knows how to dress a woman but most importantlly he LOVES to dress a woman. Lives for it. Although in past…

NYFW AW’14- Jason Wu Comes Correct.
This is my first livestream of NYFW, I don’t know about you but it still doesn’t feel like its Fashion Week . Maybe its because there’s so much else going on right now what with the global shitty weather, Sochi, Mercury in retrograde etc. it feels like this has come a week too early. But…

Brunch- Anything Goes
I love an unstructured day out. Anything and everything is possible and for this we need sparkly shoes. We just do. Picture this, you get a text from a friend, a bunch of you are getting together, meeting up for brunch in Kensington …groan. You don’t really want to deal with the tourists down there,…
