NYFW Recap: Louis Verdad F/W 2017

Verdad NYFW F/W 2017 Collection Photography by Noam Galai Louis Verdad is a 15-year fashion industry veteran who brought sophisticated street style to the table this year. I can tell you right now he can eat alone because his F/W 17′ collection is that good. Just about every item is totally wearable. Each piece exemplifies from runway to street. If you’re trying to curate an effortless style take note from this collection. My favorite items were the jackets and coats, each one was more effortless than the last. Take a look at the patent leather jacket above and try and tell me you…

NYFW Recap: Taoray Wang F/W 2017

Taoray Wang NYFW F/W 2017 Collection Wang Tao successfully added sex appeal and a feminine touch to otherwise modest menswear pieces in her Taoray Wang Collection. With an admirable education in history and fashion, Tao effortlessly combines the two in her namesake line. Most looks could be worn from office to dinner, with some minor alterations (ie. layering under a lace negligee during the day). Overall there was a mostly neutral palate with pops of fuchsia in the lining and stitching. If you’re looking to update your work wardrobe or if you’re going for a ‘who run the world’ girl…

NYFW Recap: Michael Costello F/W 2017

Michael Costello NYFW F/W 2017 Collection Michael Costello has become a name familiar to many partially due to his time on Project Runway. If you don’t know him from the reality TV Show then you definitely remember that sheer white lace number Beyoncé wore to the Grammy’s in 2014. To-die-for (find it here). Referred to as a prodigy (with good measure, he started a couture collection when he was 14 years old) Costello brought his A-game to the table for his F/W 2017 collection. Sex appeal with just the right amount of romance is how I would sum up the…

Talk of the town: New York Fashion Week

Jacket: All Saints | Dress: DVF | Booties: Marc Fisher | Bag: Chanel | Sunglasses: Elizabeth & James Happy official day two of New York Fashion Week (NYFW)! It’s such a fun time in New York City. You can totally tell that everyone (at least downtown) steps up their outfit game. It’s a great week for outfit inspiration and also a good excuse to try out new looks. I’m sure by now you can tell I’m a jeans girl to the fullest. I think it’s mostly because I’m always so cold, not that I actually don’t like wearing dresses. So,…

One More Addiction

I’m newly obsessed with coats. Living in New York and being someone who’s always freezing, coats have become a natural addition for me. And if something going to cover my entire outfit, it better make a statement. Let’s take a look at one of my new favorites.. Coat: 1 by O’2nd | Sweater: H&M | Pants: H&M | Shoes: Ivanka Trump This coat’s boyish charm and color combo totally caught my eye. Not to mention the fur trim. I will live in this look for the rest of the fall/winter. There’s nothing better than a cozy sweater, denim, heels or…

Fall Staples: Black Mini Skirt

A black leather mini skirt is a classic piece that you’ll have forever. Personally, I think this makes it totally worth the investment. I was lucky enough to pick up this All Saints leather skirt over the Summer on major sale! So if you’re not ready to pull that $500+ trigger, I would suggest getting a fun faux leather piece and then waiting until off season for this investment. I’ve linked a few real/faux faves below. Take a look.. Turtleneck: Gap | Fur Vest: 525 America | Skirt: All Saints | Shoes: Pour La Victoire | Bag: Chanel | Pearls: Bloomingdales …
