Insane Shoe Sale at Barneys!
You must get to a Barneys asap– almost the entire shoe department is 40% off! I’m talking YSL (except the tribute), Pierre Hardy, Jil Sanders, and LOUBOUTINS! Look at these shoes, it’s insane! I was in there this weekend and snatched up a pair of gray/platinum platforms that I’ve been looking at all season– so [...]
Stone Cold Fox
I was out-and-about the other night when I spotted a girl in this fab black top with a triangular back cut-out. I was dying to know where she got it, so I approached her and asked her. Turns out one of her friends handmade it! Lucky for me, her friend is a designer who owns [...]
Elaine Kim: Easy Chic
I found the most delightful little boutique while wandering on 3rd street in LA this week. From the window I got a peek of an actual studio behind the store where seamstresses and pattern makers were working. Intrigued, I walked in to get a better look and discovered a hidden gem– designer Elaine Kim. Elaine [...]
Cindy Chao Jewel Art: December Auction in NY
My absolute favorite piece of jewelry is from my friend, internationally renowned Jewel Artist Cindy Chao. I have never seen jewelry as uniquely ornate and stunning as hers. When I was in Asia I was invited to her showroom and given the honor of viewing almost all of her pieces (she usually only allows each [...]
Frugal Buy: Timex Watches
The only thing more important than having a fabulous, classic go-to bag — in my opinion — is a great watch. When I turned 18 my parents bought me a Cartier watch (which I’ve worn pretty much every day of my life since), and when I turned 21 I got a Patek Philippe one (gorgeous, [...]
Minnie Driver Wears Vionnet
I don’t even want to know what Minnie Driver was doing in the cab prior to this event (although Taxi Cab confessions come to mind) but she could have at least straightened herself up a bit don’t ya think? What has she been doing since Good Will Hunting? I have no idea but from the [...]
Katherine Heigl in Sydney Evan Pistol Necklace
Sydney Evan’s fine meets fashion jewelry has made quite an impact in Hollywood. The designer’s jewelry has been worn by everyone from Katherine Heigl to Ashton Kutcher (both recently wore the designer’s diamond encrusted gun necklace), and her line has a variety of trend-driven, spirituality, cause, and personality pieces. I would never splurge on a [...]
Gucci Clemence Platform Wedge Sandals
Gucci strikes the perfect balance between fashion and sci-fi with these Clemence wedges– can you not see Princess Leia rocking the white pair? I’m partial to the gray version myself– rarely do you find chunky platforms so sleekly and chicly designed. These are from the Cruise collection and if you live in warmer climates you’ll [...]
Celebs Love: Reebok EasyTone
From left — Kendra Wilkinson, Miranda Kerr, Marisa Miller I’ve been wearing a pair of Reebok EasyTone sneakers for the past few weeks now and I’m in love! Maybe it’s because I’m used to Puma sneakers, which are very slender and don’t have much cushioning, but the EasyTones are refreshingly comfortable and soft — especially [...]
Alice + Olivia Ponte & Leather Leggings
I’ve been wearing Alice+Olivia’s Ponte & Leather leggings a lot this season– they make everything in my closet instantly modern and edgy (even a ten year old Donna Karan cashmere tunic!) Don’t fear these leggings, the luxe leather details wrap around in a curve so your legs actually look long(er) and thin(ner). Try them with [...]
