Best-Dressed at the Met Costume Institute Gala

Are there two more deeply intelligent and influential designers of the past century than Elsa Schiaparelli and Miuccia Prada? So it’s only logical that for Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations, the Met Gala’s glamorous attendees brought out all the stops, with looks that ran the gamut from the fiercely elegant to the just plain fierce [...]

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 [...]

Scarlett Johansson in Prada

Scarlett Johansson looks radiant wearing PRADA to the London premiere of ‘Avengers Assemble’ last night! The tri-color raso silk and lace strapless dress enriched with a red ‘super posé’ rose embroidered bust, black raso peplum waist, and navy on black guipure lace skirt is from the Prada Spring Summer 2012 collection. I don’t know many [...]

Prada Fall 2012 Collection: The Pleasure Principle

Miuccia Prada’s nearly identical battalion of models – each sporting lash-line-to-brow eye shadow and pin-straight, extension-enhanced hair, slicked back for a feeling of digital-world severity – said it all. For this collection, she was zeroing into a narrow focus and sticking with it. But that’s not to say Fall 2012 doesn’t have a feeling of [...]

Prada Spring 2011

Tired of fall’s almost too clinical minimalism, Miuccia Prada perverted the aesthetic by turning to Baroque minimal. It wasn’t quite Carmen Miranda in “The Gang’s All Here,” as was easy to reference immediately; rather, it was simply about having fun with fashion. Again. It was hard to avoid the South American references what with the [...]

Pre-Order Pre-Fall Prada!

I realize it’s ridiculous to pre-order anything for fall when we have not even finished our spring shopping but this is a shoe that must not be missed out on.  Cutout booties remain strong for fall and this is one of the best ones I’ve seen.  Prada reinvents the classic granny lace up bootie with [...]

Combat Boot Camp

Top Row: DVF, $395; Giuseppe Zanotti, $1745; Prada $850 Bottom: Tory Burch, $495; Jimmy Choo $1195; Miu Miu $730 Oh these boots make me think of my younger wilder days – I was a total boot chick and I wore super high boots with straps and hardware galore to the office. Luckily, I worked in [...]

Disco Chic: Alexander Wang Asymmetrical dress

Times sure have changed, there was a day when I’d just be leaving the house to dance the night away at 10pm on a Saturday night– now you’re more likely to find me coming in by 10pm on a Saturday night.  But a girl can still live vicariously through her memories.  Let’s see– what would [...]

Stop the presses and embrace your wrinkles and creases!

Creases and wrinkles are very on trend right now. Crumpled summer dresses and jackets are fuss free and casually chic. Prada has the best crinkly clothes in the market– made mostly of of muslin and cotton, its filmy fabric looks feminine and crinkly pretty. Just make sure your hair is slicked back and sleek and [...]

Prada Pre-Fall 2009 Shoes

How hot are these Prada shoes for Pre-Fall?  I want all of them but am especially obsessed with this black strappy platform pair on the left. The cutout shoe shape continues strong for the next season so if you got a pair this season, keep them!  Prada shoes are not the most comfortable for me [...]
