Derek Lam For Kohl’s

If it’s been too long since the Prabal/Target designer collab and you’re looking for affordable designer duds, don’t you fret… there is collab right around the corner.  On April 5, the Derek Lam for Kohl’s will be available online and in stores.  This is the second  in a series of collaborations for Kohl’s called DesignNation- where each featured designer presents a collection inspired by their travels.  Lam took  inspiration for this collection from the jungles and sandy beaches of Rio De Janeiro which comes across in the fun prints and easy breezy vibe of the pieces. The wallet friendly collection is priced at $36-$88 and includes dresses, skirts and even swimwear- a first for the designer.  Below are some of my favorites. Shop the collection HERE.

Paris Couture Fashion Week 2013

24 Jan

With Paris couture fashion week coming to an end today, I must admit I feel like I’ve watched a fairy tale unfold before my eyes.  This particular fashion week which solely concentrates on haute couture pieces from fashion designers around the world, is my favorite of all fashion weeks.  I look forward to the opulent, magical, detailed pieces that come down those Parisian runways.  These are the most beautiful creations in the fashion industry all in one place; all in one week (4 days technically).  The craftsmanship is absolutely impeccable as the designers pull out all the stops to see their “dream” creations come to light.  One of these dresses can take over 2,000 hours of work to create. While many designers showcased their collections, I had four favorites- Valentino, Elie Saab, Giambattista Valli and Zuhair Murad.  These designers lived up to my ultimate fashion dreams of Paris couture fashion week!  Just beautiful!!!!!

The Two Must Have Colors For 2013!!!

22 Jan

What are the “it” colors for 2013?????  I can’t choose just one!  The two colors that I won’t be able to live without are Emerald and Lilac!!!! So many of my favorite fashion moments have included at least one of these colors , if not both!  Emerald has always been a go to color  in my wardrobe but I’m really making room for lilac this year and am very excited about it.  If you’re not big into color you can start by adding a shoe or clutch to your outfit or adding these colors into your makeup regimen. If you love color, go crazy with it-  The more the merrier!

Some colorful inspiration…..
