Just some inspiration for my upcoming Mexico trip... Be back in a week!

Coeur Show

It's day 3 at Coeur! It's been such a productive show but we're ready for some r & r in Puerto Vallerta!

Trunks Trunks Trunks

I fell in love with antique trunks when I went to the Paris flea market for the first time at 16. Louis Vuitton and Goyard still make the same trunks they made almost 200 years ago, but the older they are the more character they have. Not only are trunks useful in an apartment setting (they hold all of my handbags), they add personality to any room. And isn't there something autumn-esque about a weathered trunk?

Halloween Costume Inspiration

It's getting to be that time of year again-- where ladies wear ill fitting polyester dresses and the men wear some "I think I'm hilarious" pervy getup... oh Halloween!!! Here's my inspiration for this years holiday, no polyester allowed.

Fall Transition: Stripes

Ah yes...  the first day Fall feels like Fall...  the first cold day of the season... I was realizing this today at lunch at Balthazar bundled up in scarves and hats sipping French onion soup (the cheese doesn't count when it's in soup form). The time has come to put away the cottons and linens and transition into the Fall wools and cashmeres and leathers. Finally! Surprisingly, your Summer stripes can transition you from Summer to Fall with ease... just pair with a darker pant and maybe driving gloves or a military jacket and viola! Stay warm, ya'll!

Paris in the Springtime

Ahhh Fashion Week *MONTH* is finally over, ending with my favorite... Paris. I was really into the strapless dresses, the intricate wovens, and the tailored pieces. A la prochaine, Paris!

Texas Toast

Off to Dallas for the weekend! In the mean time, here's a lovely western-inspired Isabel Marant look from Fall '12. Ciao!

Hello Moto

The perfect piece that gives you an instant edge, that has the ability to take you from day to night, that smiles at you when you walk into the room ... the motorcycle jacket (preferably in leather). It's one of those timeless pieces that has carried over from the 50's, the 80's and especially today. I have my eye on this Acne number with the bright-blue shearling collar  ... I wish it was Christmas already.

Milan S/S '13 : Favorite Looks

The Milan Spring looks I was drawn to were predominantly dainty and feminine with a lighter-than-air energy. My favorite looks weren't etherial in their daintiness, rather, they exuded power from their delicate fabrication and complex construction.

London S/S '13: Favorite Looks

My favorite looks from the collections shown during London's Fashion Week are definitely in sync with my favorite looks shown during New York's. I was drawn to structured, clean and tailored looks in cold palettes which seem to be very menswear inspired.
