Top Coachella Looks: Music to My Eyes
It’s that time of year again! When all creatures young and wild get down and dirty in the fields of Indio, California. Coachella is more popular than ever, going for two full weekends this year. Which means it’s especially no occasion to play it safe or serious. Find your muse, whether she’s the retro rocker [...]
Early Nineties Revival: The Return of Grunge?
WWD has just announced the return of Grunge for Fall 2012. Are you ready for the return of the dumpster-chic kinderwhore? According to WWD, you’d better be! Dressing like a ragamuffin is it this fall. I dabbled in grunge-glam in the nineties, courtesy of Marc Jacobs, who in 1992 said “Grunge style is about doing [...]
Top Turbans: Wrap it up this Season
In case you didn’t know, I’m a huge fan of headgear. Hats, tiaras (I collect them, making me very popular with girls under 10) and yes, even turbans. From Mommy Dearest to Kate Moss to Axl Rose: all can be scene rocking this head accessory. Turbans are always fresh and modern, no matter the era. [...]

If you’re planning to walk down the aisle this summer, soft, loose curls and one of these ethereal headdresses is the look you want.

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 [...]
Marc Jacobs Mickey Mouse and Furball Headbands: The Powerpuff Girls
Remember last year when so many cozy winter hats turned up with cute little kitten ears attached to the tops? On adults? Well, now Marc Jacobs has taken the idea of animal ears to a fluffy new level of exaggerated proportions. Right out of Disneyland and onto the runway, meet the Mickey Mouse headband ($560)! [...]
Turbans: The Sikh is Chic!
Turbans, like caftans, have always fascinated me. For a topping of mystery that suggests the worldly, modern gypsy, nothing accessorizes like a turban. Once only for the worst of bad hair days, the new interpretations are thankfully more Nicole Richie than Mrs. Roper. Worn correctly and with conscientious styling, you get instant exotic allure. Add [...]

Feather Headbands: Snob or Slob?
We will try anything once, even stick feathers in our hair for the sake of fashion (apparently celebs will do the same for publicity). The Feather Light Brigade (headband), worn by Carmen Electra, Khloe Kardashian, Kat Deluna, and Aubrey O’Day, is sold exclusively at Owl’s Lab and designed by Danny Masterson’s sister Alanna Masterson. It’s [...]

I love quirky accessories, sometimes it’s all you need to spice up an old outfit! Like these Floral headpieces from Paige Gamble made of exotic skin– it’s both funky and luxurious! I wore this headpiece in metallic python everywhere over Fashion Week and was stopped constantly by chic young girls who wanted to snatch it [...]
