80’s Baby: Marc Jacobs @ NY Fashion Week
New year, new hair!
Hair guru Ken Paves worked his magic on loyal client Jessica Simpson and gave her a new hair style that is very blonde and very curly.
Jessica Simpson came out of the salon carrying the Louis Vuitton Monogram Leopard Stephen “Boston” handbag that we’ve seen her [...]

80’s Baby: Marc Jacobs @ NY Fashion Week
Images from the upcoming V Magazine “Size Issue” have been steadily leaking out and I’m almost afraid to look at them anymore lest I ruin it for the January 14 street date.
The “One Size Fits All” shoot featuring Crystal Renn and Jacquelyn Jablonski (see it here) was hot, [...]

How did I miss this?
While Kanye West got his Cindy Crawford on for A Bathing Ape, his girlfriend, Amber Rose, snuck in a layout for the January 2010 issue of Vibe magazine.
The photo shoot, titled A Splash of Masculinity shows Amber Rose rocking what I can [...]
Marc Jacobs is known for playing with different periods and the Marc Jacobs Fall/Winter 2010 collection was a complete throwback to the ’80s punk era. From the spiked hair, printed tights and structured elements on a dress, he completely embraced the era with a collection that embraced the decade of excess.
Oscar de la Renta knows the key to my heart…leopard print!
The Park Avenue locale was the perfect setting for the uptown fashion that he’s known for. Oscar never disappoints and came through with high fashion separates, suits, cocktail dresses and evening gowns.
The aubergine pants from Oscar de la Renta Fall/Winter 2008 made another appearance and I’m finding them just as crave-worthy as before. I love the long lines and precise tailoring of the Oscar de la Renta trouser. They pair pefectly with a ruffled silk blouse from last season or a slim, leopard-printed knit from this season.
I loooooove Matthew Williamson!
I adore the way he uses ethnic prints and even when he had a bit of a dust-up over being a little too inspired by the Ethiopian national costume in his Spring/Summer ‘08 collection, I still loved his swag.
Well, the Matthew Williamson Fall/Winter 2010 collection just gave me more of what I love — rich color, ethnic beading, and a certain global je ne sais quoi.
High points: chunky knits, hand beading on sexy dresses and color explosions that take you from India to Africa and beyond.
Low points: not a damn thing.
Going to a red carpet event in 30 minutes and Rachel Zoe hasn’t showed up with your dress?
Badgley Mishka is always safe bet.
They always turn out perfect gowns that won’t get you on anyone’s “worst dressed list” and I’m pretty sure at this point, they can sew these gowns with their eyes closed.
But this year, instead of playing it safe, Badgley Mischka rocked it out a little bit with gold lame, tiers of pewter tulle and embellishments that inched them out of their safety zone while still guaranteeing that you’ll look stunning — not scary.
Perfect for the Oscars, the Emmys, the SAG Awards…or you know, walking the dog and such.
What does a hot, young designer do after whipping up an inaugural ball gown for Michelle Obama? He shows at Fashion Week of course!
For his Fall/Winter collection, Jason Wu focused on what got him here — ladylike dresses fit for a First Lady — a super-stylish one at that.
There were clothes that shifted easily from day to night — the neutral grey day dress with circular appliques on a cap sleeve and slim, grey cigarette pants paired with a cropped blazer on Jourdan Dunn.
But for Jason Wu, demure doesn’t mean dull. Cocktail dresses came in punchy chartreuse, vibrant red and regal purple colors. Dresses were made sexy with transparent, peek-a-boo panels and maribou accents.
