Dressing for the Boardwalk Empire: The Rebel at Revel
For Memorial Weekend. I’m going to the grand opening of Revel in Atlantic City. As a West Coaster, I’m a Vegas girl through and through. I’ve been going since I was a kid, so for me, Atlantic City is a whole new ballgame when it comes to getting dressed. And when you throw in Beyoncé [...]
Fifty Shades of Grey-Inspired Style: Two Sides of Ana
The latest book sensation (at least on the female front!) is erotic, not what you would call well-written, yet completely, utterly addictive. I got hooked on the series recently – and started thinking about Anastasia Steele’s style evolution, which blossoms along with her intense, submissive-dominant relationship. Ana starts off a simple, virginal girl, a 21-year-old [...]
GCB-Inspired Style: Carlene Cockburn vs. Amanda Vaughn
My new Texas-sized obsession? GCB! If you haven’t watched the hilarious new show yet, based on the book Good Christian Bitches, trust me, you’re in for a deliciously guilty Southern treat, packed with naughty humor and Dallas-tastic style (What else would you expect from Sex and the City creator Darren Star and Steel Magnolias writer [...]
Show Me the Marni: One-Track Mind
It’s an old – and often rightly spoken – fashion rule to avoid wearing a single designer from head to toe (the one exception being when you’re sitting front row at that designer’s show). But when it comes to Marni, this law, along with a handful of others, flies out the window. Someone needs to [...]
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 [...]
Look of the Week: Wine Country Snob
From the modestly humble to the over-the-top luxurious, vineyards in Napa Valley wine country are an enchanting way to spend the day for one reason. Do I even need to say it? An excuse to drink wine when the sun is up! Whether you’re a “Sideways”-esque connoisseur, a casual observer, or your attitude is “I [...]
Accessorizing the Maxi: Take Your Look to the Max
Short girls (or to be more discreet, “petite,” but let’s be frank!) know that when it comes to ankle-length dressing, the thigh-high slit is their best friend. For reference, look at M.K. and Ashley; they got this look down. Pale heather gray, as seen on Haute Hippie‘s semi-sheer jersey, means a tank style is chic [...]
Leighton Meester Sparkles in Louis Vuitton
Leighton Meester glittered boldly last night at The Art Of Elysium Fourth Annual Black Annual Black Tie Charity Gala in La la land. Wearing a Louis Vuitton sparkler from Spring 2011 (with LV clutch, natch), the fashion forward actress stepped out in Roger Vivier Bow Chic Sandal in black ($795) and navy Satin. I have [...]
