Aussie Style

Today, an email popped into my inbox, along with my MBFW chic Instagram feed, exclaiming the beginning of Sydney Fashion Week to be wowing us yet again. Yes, Sydney has become a strong player in the fashion game. With the likes of Ellery, Camilla & Marc, Han, New Generation, and... Read More

Coachella Cheat Sheet

Heading to the desert this weekend? It wouldn’t be a great idea to blend into the crowd of music lovers seamlessly with the same old band T-shirt and cutoff shorts would it? Not that I don’t love and wear denim jorts all summer long. I love me a denim on... Read More

Dream On

It was apparent to me from the onset that I didn’t want a sedentary secretarial job after graduating from college  – I longed for a more esoteric position – when I failed my first typing test. On my first job interview, little unbeknownst to me, the requirements for the position,... Read More

The Boyfriend Blazer

A few years back when I traveled, be it near or far, I used to overpack. By a long shot. I was guilty of paying the overweight charges on my luggage, transferring some items into the other bag, therefore rendering my carry-on just another generic black bag on the baggage... Read More

Gucci Loafers

In high school I wanted those baby yellow suede Gucci loafers more than any other pair of shoes as far as I can remember. In fact, I had saved up petty cash in the name of babysitting for a number of months in order to get them into my closet... Read More

Crimson Tide

Are you ready to go micro? It was in the recent edition of Harper’s Bazaar that I read the Rise and Fall of Hemlines, regarding the return of the miniskirt and of brief minis and/or of bottoms, for that matter. I get that minis stop an outfit from looking too... Read More

The Spring Boot

Today on Things I want, Most likely won’t get, but Secretly Crave–enter the gladiator sandal/boots from Alexander Wang that re-surfaced on the runways marking the debut of a controversial affair that has lasted for years. To gladiator, or to not. Last seen on the spring runways at Altuzarra, Marc Jacobs, and Proenza... Read More

Girls, Girls, Girl

One of the more notable things about the season finale of “Girls” last Sunday night is that Hannah Horvath kept her clothes on. There was no mesh T-shirt, no exposed belly buttons, or ill-fitting jumpers on display. I’m OK with that because although the series as a whole wasn’t about... Read More

Spring Fling

Ah spring! Now that winter is over and out, we can rejoice that at 7:02 A.M. spring began with the vernal equinox chirping away on your alarm. Although it may not feel like spring (my weather reads a whopping 29 degrees) we can be sure that we will see increased... Read More

Inside Lulu Frost’s Studio

I always enjoy going up to preview designer’s collection and especially having the privilege to meet them one-on-one. Last week I went up to Lulu Frost’s loft-like showroom and spent time with Lisa Salzar and her vintage-inspired necklaces and retro-chic jewels. What resonated with me is the combination of antique,... Read More
