Silver Streaks

It’s no secret that I love shoes. If you keep up to date with my currently obsessed, you would know that a lot of the goods from my vault are usually of a footwear variety of some sort. Sometimes a shoe can define a moment, the beginning of a thought process and I blame Sex and the City for a high percentage of my major shoe fetish. These simple metallic sandals below had me thinking about both silver and the chunky heel. After abandoning the shade for a warmer shade of gold see Accessorize it, I have found a lost craving for gun metal, cue the 31 Minute bag. It has a cooling effect– great for those hot summer months when all you want to do is... Read More

Ring Ding

Yesterday I got an email from a desperate friend asking where she can get some awesome black caged knuckle rings she saw in a magazine. Willing to hunt for anything, as the Fashion Hunter does, I did my obligatory investigating. I found the ring and she was thrilled that it cost over $4,000 –the price of a normal, not NYC mortgage–for a very trendy accessory. I have received a few questions of late about where to purchase these unique rings that I wear in my blog photos and put up on my Currently Obsessed page. Now I would bet many of you can’t wait to show off your beautiful manicured nails this summer with plenty of finger candy. Right? I have a penchant for wearing delicate... Read More

Tangerine Dreams

Happy Tuesday!!! On my way home from the beach this weekend, I was pondering the many aspects of the color orange, my “it” flavor of the month and how it was dubbed this season as Tangerine Tango. If you have been hiding under a rock or missed Saturday’s Sneak a Peek post, it is actually Pantone’s color of the year. Summertime dressing is so easy to master and a single splash of color on the top or bottom usually does the trick. I don’t like to indulge in too many brights, as it can be overwhelmingly blinding to anyone who walks past you. A fabulous pedicure, or a little arm fiesta is usually all I can handle. Remember Groovy Freaks? However, this year is almost... Read More

Enzo Costa tee, Georgie pant, Alexander McQueen sunnies, Dogeared necklace, iPhone, Honest Tea Photo: Michael Crook. Here’s a little sneak peek of what’s previewing next week on the Fashion Hunter. For some this could be a chance desperate attempt to inspire you on what to wear once the sun comes out and salute the casual comfort factor. A white tee-shirt, tangerine drawstring pants, denim everything, and lots o’lots of arm candy..that’s what summertime style is all about. This post is not an advertisement for the iPhone or Honest Tea. Honestly. It’s just a need to quench my thirst in every way possible by staying connected to you while I’m hunting those blazing trails. In case you are wondering where I am, you can now stalk me 24/7 on...

Memorial Day Weekend

Ready or not, Memorial Day weekend is arriving in T- minus 2 days.While I’m sure we all agree that we can’t wait for freaking summer to start, this week’s overcast and rainy weather is not perfectly pitched for barbecues and hanging pool-side. Undaunted, I’m still determined to dress the part, and a little rain won’t stop the fashion hunter. You never know when you end up at the right party in the wrong threads. That is hashtag awkward. Truth be told, one of my favorite things about summer is going to the beach and undressing to the bare minimum. I love feeling the warm sand under my feet, feasting on chips and guacamole, and staring at the posers with their six-pack abs stroll by. So... Read More

Life’s a beach

From Memorial Day (which is quickly approaching) to Labor Day, I try to jam-pack everything warm-weather related into a few very short weeks. I remember when I was in high school and thought that summer lasted forever. I even bought a tee-shirt that said “Forever Summer.” But reality bites, it ends. Unfortunately, like summer and its romances, bathing suits usually don’t last more than one season. I’ve tried to reuse my $350 Eres suit that I purchased in Italy last summer, but even expensive elastic stretches out. Here’s a little preview to kick-off the summer vacation season Part 1. (Beach Boys Endless Summer playing in the background.) Coming soon.. a chance  to bear ass! Or not. Wear bandeau! Or not. A chance to wear.. or be... Read More

Raising the Bar

Hello World! I’ve always set my standards high, ever reaching for loftier goals in all aspects of my life. As my alter ego -Fashion Hunter, I am my own heroine, always on the hunt for the latest, greatest, newest, freakiest, funniest, coolest hottest ting going-saving the world from fashion fails. And like the Avengers it is a collaborative effort, meaning that Fashion Hunter survives on the feedback (good or bad) from its loyal and hopefully widening readership. Keeping in character, last week I found this camo Nerf Gun in the kid section of the drug store. As I was on my way to a penthouse rooftop for a Bar iii bbq event in the West Village, I had an “Ah Ha ” moment. After one solid... Read More

Beach Days Part II

A derivative of my original Beach Days post a few weeks ago, the sun is out, at last. Hitting a high of 70 degrees today, and a possible 79 over the weekend, Memorial Day weekend is a mere 8 days away. Are you beach-ready? Bikini, check. Sunglasses, check. Sandals, check. Beach tote, check. Colorful arm baubles? check. Tight abs? Uncheck. So if you haven’t started doing 300 sit-ups a day, now is a perfect time to start. I am starting to realize that it is clearly time for a spray tan mini wardrobe infusion. Hard to imagine, but the endless possibilities of summer 2012, don’t seem so endless anymore. Surf lessons anyone? I’m ready to dive into that ocean. And in honor of Donna Summer I’ll be singing...
