Excess-orized

June 26, 2024

Every girl should own a few statement accessories that bring a real “wow” factor — you know? Those No. 1 (style) Stunnas that make your girlfriends say “that is so you!” Or, as I actually prefer, “how the hell do you walk in those?”

Last weekend, I paired these lace-up, sculpted Jeffrey Campbell’s with a perfect perforated mini bag from Ann Taylor. My mantra is generally somewhere along the line of “less is more,” but hell; if you’re investing in statement accessories, you might as well wear ’em, right? And why not together?

Like these shoes? See how else I’ve styled ’em here and here. And, a mental note: Despite an overwhelming urge to match your shoes to your shorts, just do not don leather duds when the temps are slated to rise above 90 degrees.

Runway Recap: Rag & Bone F/W 2012

February 16, 2024

Who: Rag & Bone designers Marcus Wainwright and David Neville drew on the cultures of England and India as the apparent inspiration for their fall 2012 collection.

What: To me, this collection was a lesson in layering. Each look felt modern, luxe and textured without going overboard. Blanket stripes, printed dresses, tapestry-style brocades and asymmetric wrap skirts smartly piled atop one another on models who gracefully stomped down the industrial-themed runway at Pier 57. While there were many to covet, the most tempting (and seasonally-appropriate) pieces were the belted blanket coats and wraps. And, of course, the show-stopping shoes: Shiny, bold boots with thick wooden soles.
