Proenza Schouler for J Brand Painted Jeans
Even with the endless denim brands out there, J Brand is a clear favorite for many, including myself. So when you put the much coveted designed behind Proenza Schouler on J Brand jeans, you get magic and fireworks. Kind of literally here.

Stella McCartney Set of Two Tourist Briefs
Stella McCartney has become one of my go-tos for lingerie along with Deborah Marquit, Kiki, and Moschino. I love the innocent, playful sexiness that most of her pieces exude. A year ago my boyfriend moved to San Fran leaving me to travel back and forth a bit, so I can relate to this set of [...]
Emmy Awards — The Fashion Recap
The temperature may have been soaring, but the actresses attending the 62nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles Sunday night didn’t let the strong sun from ruining their walk down the red carpet. Indeed, many of them wore black and shades of navy with plenty of aplomb. Inevitably, however, there [...]
Kate Beckinsale in Versace
For an actress who oft prefers long, billowy gowns, it was surprising, but in a great way, to see her arrive at the premiere of “Going the Distance” in L.A. in a terrific and smart Versace shift. Yes, you read right: Versace. The white leather (LEATHER!) dress with charming black dotted pocket-flat details is from [...]
Drew Barrymore in Malandrino
Drew Barrymore proves that one doesn’t necessarily need to rush to Chanel, Lanvin and Oscar de la Renta for a fabulous red carpet dress. Don’t get me wrong: there’s nothing wrong with any of the aforementioned designers; I just think it’s nice to stir the pot sometimes. And who better than Drew? At this week’s [...]
Alice + Olivia Masha Faux Fur Jacket
It was 107 degrees when I ordered this jacket online on Monday. Yes I do need my head examined but I always plan ahead so when I see a great piece, I get it before it sells out! Shawl collars are so pretty and feminine and I just hope it looks as good in real [...]
Lanvin Suitcase Honeymoon Set
Ladies, let me make something clear: you do NOT have to be a new bride to snap up this nifty and unique Lanvin piece. Alber Elbaz, who not too long ago designed an engagement ring for Van Cleef & Arpels and, more recently, launched a Lanvin bridal line, clearly has matrimony on his mind. With [...]
Black on Black on Black
It has come to my attention that I have become way too colorful. A friend blamed it on Texas but I say it’s old age. There was a time that I’d only wear black/white/gray, but as I look in my closet right now, it’s like someone threw up rainbow sherbert in it. Not that I’m [...]
VPL Stripe Band Bra
I’m sure most of you have, like me, had a bad day and gone shopping to get yourself out of your funk. In those kinds of cases I tend to gravitate towards lingerie, because the damage isn’t as steep (though depending on where you go, that sadly is not always the case!). On a recent [...]
