Jason Wu x Target: A Dream Come Wu
I’ve got to hand it to Target. They’ve managed to attract every legit designer who has owned the runway to do crazy-affordable collaborations. Next up: Jason Wu! As of next month, Jason is set to bring his sense of modern femininity to the mass retailer, with a collection of print dresses, perfectly nipped at the [...]
Catch It Now
Photo credit: Coliena Rentmeester Our friend Marlien Rentmeester–Lucky Magazine editor and preternaturally chic mother of two–has FINALLY started letting the rest of the world in on her style secrets. This is the woman who always looks as if she’s stepped off the pages of Paris Vogue without ever seeming to have spent more than a [...]
Versace for H&M: H&M Turns Up the Italiano Heat
Sure, Alber Ebaz for Lanvin did it, but I never thought I’d see the day that Donatella would join the ranks of couture-meets-High Street. And here she comes with a bang! This just might be the most powerful high-low collaboration to date. Think bright prints – Asian, Greek, tropical, wild – and you’ve conjured Versace [...]
Zara, is that you?!
Whoa, this is Zara? High street has never looked so chic! Okay, so the inspiration is clearly Celine – note the elemental quality, graphic colors, and slouch on top of structure – but fashionable girls can’t swing all those four-figures required for a Celine spring wardrobe. Let this be a reminder that eighty percent of [...]
Thakoon Print Drape Dress
Before I extol the virtues of this gorgeous dress, can we discuss its price? $525! In this world of markups, it’s practically a bargain for a designer label. One look at this dress and I’m already longing for the arrival of spring and garden parties in the Hamptons. Thakoon is nothing if not a terrific [...]
Call it Springs Opens in NYC
A few days ago I went to an event hosted by Shine Media PR to celebrate the opening of the Call it Spring store in NYC. The chain, which belongs to Aldo, sells inexpensive shoes, accessories, and handbags (we’re talking cheaper than H&M). I was not familiar with the chain, but from what I can [...]
Stephen Burrows x Target Dress Collection
Looking for a way to inject some pop into your summer wardrobe but don’t want to spend a fortune on a one-season dress? I have a solution for you: snag one of Stephen Burrows’ new knit dresses made exclusively to celebrate the opening of Target’s first-ever Manhattan store in East Harlem. The colorful dresses come [...]
DKNY: The Cozy Revolution!
Have you joined the DKNY Cozy revolution yet??? I have! It’s the singular most versatile piece of clothing I own (next to the DK infinity dress that is). I know the cozy doesn’t look like much folded on a shelf or hanging on a rack but pick it up the next time you see it [...]
Lilly and Van
Lily & Van is a collection designed by the god daughter of Lilly Pulitzer that’s comfortable, fashionable, affordable, and perfect for this spring and summer. The colorful prints and patterns are designed by Lilly and her husband Barry Van Gerbig, and are all based on his artwork. I love that everything is around 30 bucks, [...]
Zac Posen x Target Gown
Have you marked your calendars yet? Zac Posen’s highly-awaited collection for Target hits stores nationwide this Sunday, and while I’ll be the first to admit I don’t necessarily love every piece–because, really, who does?–I do have a particular affinity for this dress. It’s the first time Target has sold a gown–ever! If that’s not momentous [...]
