If I see one more Coco Chanel quote about being chic or Parisian or minimal or glamorous or super-feminine or what-evaaa I may just blow a gasket. Because it turns out that Coco was a piece of WORK, and not in the da Vinci, “oh she’s a Mona Lisa” sense. Whatever your feelings about tweed, […]
The Pyer Moss Fall 2021 couture collection ruffled feathers as it closed out Haute Couture Week a few days ago, and no, it wasn’t because it was delayed 24 hours due to monsoon-like conditions. Ready to see what has people clutching their pearls? First of all, the show wasn’t presented in Paris per couture norm […]
Alright, alright, alright, first things first: I love you, I miss you, I love you, I miss you, I love you, I miss youuuu! YES it’s been too long since I’ve posted – and I’m afraid the Busy Bee Train has kept chugging through June and will likely steam on into July and our little […]
This look is the perfect example of what happens when you mix WASP and Latin flavors – that measured, self-conscious modesty of a well-tailored knit married with the unapologetic, let-it-all-hang-out lust for life that only a ruffled bodycon silhouette could bring. I’ve long been a champion of the fitted knit dress, as it embodies the […]
So what if my ideal power suit includes a crop top and a belly chain? In the Stig boardroom, there are only two rules: 1. Wear what honors who you are and what you’re up to, and 2. Never hang knits. Nowhere in Company guidelines does it say to never mix midriff and shoulder pads. […]
Lemme paint you a picture: it’s a a spring evening, warm – say, a balmy 70 – and you’re drinking a glass of red as the sun sets over the olive orchards. You’ve had fresh pasta with young asparagus for dinner, the air smells like lemons, rosemary, and clean soil. You feel robustly squishy and […]
Bee-bopping in after a hiatus last week (mea culpa!) with this sunshine-infused yellow bodycon look to celebrate spring! To be honest – this is my ideal date night outfit. It smacks of seaside cocktails, after-dinner dancing, and coming home smelling like your sig other’s cologne. The silhouette is spicy, but the colors – bold, primary […]
Ok, y’all. I am SA-WAMPED these few weeks and have to admit that I’m not sure if my head is screwed on straight, but I had to check in today and make sure you saw the news! Revolve, the clothing e-retail titan of industry who moved to my sh*t list last year after reports of […]
Every now and then, an outfit comes along that surprises you – this knit set was one of them. I mean, a polo shirt? A midi skirt? All knit, like an extra’s outfit from The Queen’s Gambit? And in lime??? Ah, yes, people: it happened. It was just so clingy, so shiny, so demure yet […]
Today we’re talking about the genocide of Uighurs in Northwest China’s Xinjiang region – not because it’s fun, or it’s art, or it’s fashion-mixed-with-philosophy, or even because it’s it’s political. It’s because WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT IT. If you haven’t heard of the Uighurs (pronounced wee-gers, also spelled Uyghurs, Uygurs or Uigurs), it’s likely […]
