Lacoste x Li Xiaofeng Limited Edition Polo
While he may be best known for re-fashioning ceramic shards into everything from fire extinguishers to Mao jackets, it was Li Xiaofeng’s art of creating handcrafted “clothes” that inspired Lacoste to enlist the Chinese artist to join a highly-selective group of collaborators in creating a limited edition polo. The latest designer in Lacoste’s Holiday Collector’s [...]
Kimberly Ovitz Dresses
I don’t always have the confidence to wear one of my Kimberly Ovitz dresses, namely because when it comes to body issues, my legs are my main insecurity. When I’m feeling good though and getting dressed for a fun night out , I’m all about her minis! I bought the Kimberly Ovitz Endecott Dress ($290.50, [...]
Kirsten Dunst in Miu Miu
Over the weekend I saw Kirsten Dunst at Milk Studios for The Creators Project concert series, where she and I were both enjoying the performance by Die Antwoord.

Uterque
Since so many of us are traveling now that it’s finally summer, I thought I would highlight another popular European chain of boutiques.

Jessica Alba in Lanvin
Seriously, is there anything Jessica Alba can’t wear? Kudos to her stylist, Daniel Caudill, who has her style cues down to a tee. The latest example of Alba’s style prowess came last Thursday, when she attended the Paris premiere of her new film, “The Killer Inside Me.” For the occasion she chose a French-minded designer–Alber [...]

Helmut Lang Ruched Jersey Dress
You’ll be hard pressed to find a sexier, slinkier and more bad ass little dress than this one from Helmut Lang. I mean… just look at it– it takes a girl with extremely high self confidence and excellent body image to rock this little number. I was that girl before I gave birth and thought [...]
Karen Millen Folded Satin Pencil Dress: Snob or Slob?
After living in sweats for the last two weeks during my move into a new home (granted they are Lulu Lemon sweats but STILL…)– I am so ready to squeeze myself into a little cocktail dress! Spent the last 20 minutes looking at different dresses online and happened upon this little number from British designer [...]
