Kate Moss Does Casual Chanel: The Love Affair Continues
I love Kate Moss. Have I said that before? One of the many reasons being that, despite access to covetable clothes seasons ahead of time, she doesn’t care about wearing the latest and greatest. Instead, she shakes up what she has in her closet, even if it’s from past seasons. I have the exact same [...]
Oscar de la Renta Girls’ Collection: No Small Victory
For all the times I’ve yearned for more height (and trust me, I’ve achieved it thanks to a longstanding love affair with 6” heels), there are some perks to being petite. Case in point, Oscar de la Renta’s spring girls’ collection! I don’t know about you, but this latest assortment is bursting with everything my [...]
Top Easter Brunch Looks: Spring Awakening
When we were little girls, it was so exciting to put on our new spring dresses every Easter. Not much has changed! And why should it? No matter the age, Easter brunch is a prime opportunity to whip out our warm-weather finery and put some effort into our outfits. Here, three of my favorite looks [...]
Oscar de la Renta Fall 2012 Collection: Dresses to the Nines
The tone for the Fall season has been set: “Go big or go home.” At least that was the message Mr. de la Renta sent down the runway last night. To call the delectable array of dresses, suits, and gowns embellished would be a woeful understatement. Oscar delivered unabashed decadence with jewels galore. Embroidered blouses [...]
Top 5 Prints of the Season: Paint the Town
I’m usually one for big, bold prints but this season I’m all about the pretty painterly feel. It’s a softer approach – and it’s speaking to the romantic in me. These printed dresses are so gorgeous you can practically hang them on your walls. But it’s so much for fun to wear something beautiful! My [...]
Oscar de la Renta Pre-Fall 2012: A Park Avenue Love Story
Credit: Style.com My love affair with Oscar de la Renta is a well-documented fact, one that even my husband approves of wholeheartedly. And the romance continues with his Pre-Fall 2012 collection. The show’s Park Avenue location might have been a telling hint: we have gone back uptown. Unlike Spring, which revolved around the electrified ball [...]
Oscar de la Renta Four-Stud Belt: This Lady’s on the Cutting-Edge
Studs like you’ve never seen them before. When Oscar does tough-girl hardware, it is anything but typical. He executes his studs with chic polish, giving the metal-trimmed belt a whole new meaning. As seen on de la Renta’s exquisite Fall 2011 runway, the four-stud belt is at once edgy and ladylike, a combination requiring well-versed [...]
Abigail Spencer in Oscar de la Renta: Soldiers & Ladies Who Lunch
Look out, Olivia Wilde! Fresh face Abigail Spencer turned more than a few heads at the premiere of “Cowboys & Aliens” on July 23rd in San Diego, thanks, in part, to her shimmering choice of attire. Her strapless black crepe de chine dress, covered in an endlessly intricate amount of sequins, is from Oscar de [...]
Emma Watson in Oscar de la Renta: Couture Cutie
The next best thing to wearing an exquisite couture gown yourself is seeing it worn with elegance and style on someone else. (And by next best thing, I mean distant second!). I almost requested this gown for a photo shoot This past weekend in China for Harper’s Bazaar. Looks like Emma Watson and I are [...]
Jessica Chastain in Oscar de la Renta: Lady in Red
The “daytime chic” note is a delicate balance to hit. You don’t want to look overly done or like you are in the same ensemble from the night before, but you want to look like you actually give a damn. A charming ladylike dress is the way to go, and no one does that better [...]
