Look of the Day: Michael Kors Fall 2012
Wednesday, February 15th, 2012
While typically a mega-fan of the American-dreamy collections Michael Kors debuts each season, the designer's Fall 2012 lineup is on another level. Complete with hotpants, leather pants, ponchos, buffalo plaid, baldrics, "muppet" coats and sheer separates, it reads like a ...

Look of the Day: Theyskens’ Theory Fall 2012
Tuesday, February 14th, 2012
For better or worse, I tend to enter a viewing session of an Alexander Wang collection or anything concepted by Isabel Marant with a preconceived notion: I'm going to like it. The same goes for Olivier Theyskens' seasonal Theory unveiling; ...

Monday, February 13th, 2012

Look of the Day: Jeremy Laing Fall 2012
Monday, February 13th, 2012
Canadian designer Jeremy Laing knows what women want--rocker chicks, women who favor cult fashion and those who shy away from colors other than black, that is. In other words, I love him... But, earlier this week, as Laing's Fall 2012 runway ...

Shoe of the Day: Alexander Wang Fall 2012 Boot
Sunday, February 12th, 2012
Between the long gloves, the long (calf-length) skirts and the buttoned-up blouses, the Alexander Wang chick is surprisingly covered-up this season. The designer worked in a color palette of black, blood-red and white for Fall 2012--and kept everything shiny and ...

Look of the Day: Altuzarra Fall 2012
Sunday, February 12th, 2012
One of the brightest stars of the season thus far, Joseph Altuzarra's Fall 2012 lineup (which debuted last night, during New York Fashion Week) read as cool, street, everyday-perfect--but, in judging from the details, pulling off the luxe, "easy" look ...

Shoe of the Day: Rag & Bone Fall 2012 Boot
Saturday, February 11th, 2012
It was solid metallics paired with matte prints, sheer layers paired with thick furs, dresses worn over pants,...so, why not add in a traditional granny boot you've attached to a rugged, chunky sole? It seems Rag & Bone's David Neville ...

Look of the Day: Wayne Fall 2012
Saturday, February 11th, 2012
Clad mostly in black and big, block-wedged boots, freaks of Wayne Lee's signature avant-garde minimalism packed into Milk Studios this morning to get a new dose of their choice drug. As the show notes defined the eventual runway models as snakes ...

Shoe of the Day: Nicholas K Fall 2012 Bootie
Friday, February 10th, 2012
It seems--if you're excited to take on the "Nicholas K woman" title this season, based on the collection that hit the runway earlier this week--you're a little outdoorsy, a little bit rock 'n' roll. You like ten-gallon hats and shearling ...

Look of the Day: Creatures of the Wind Fall 2012
Friday, February 10th, 2012
Decidedly retro, whimsical, colorful and crafty, the Creatures of the Wind Fall 2012 collection backs designers Shane Gabier and Chris Peters' current status as ones to watch. For one, they're not afraid to take chances--but they do it in such ...

Shoe of the Day: Organic by John Patrick Fall 2012 Wellies
Thursday, February 9th, 2012
A truly-wearable collection from head to toe, the Organic by John Patrick Fall 2012 lineup could have been boring--if not for the leather pieces. While the luxe-leather bunch included a slicker-look jacket, burgundy flares and surprisingly-cool capris, a definite standout ...

Look of the Day: Gary Graham Fall 2012
Thursday, February 9th, 2012
A bit regal, a bit military-inspired and undoubtedly masculine-feminine, the Gary Graham Fall 2012 collection is a highlight among those we've seen thus far. While lacking a bit in novelty when considering the individual parts, the combination of the pieces ...

Shoe of the Day: Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 2012 Couture Platform
Wednesday, February 8th, 2012
While maybe an odd choice for a sacred couture show (no intricate beading? a mega-platform?), the block-like, black platforms that laced up the models' legs on the Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 2012 Couture runway were arguably among the seasons' best. Image ...

Look of the Day: It’s Complicated
Wednesday, February 8th, 2012
Though I'm not usually a fan of hair that is "complicated", the over-the-top, "sci-fi" styles that played out during Copenhagen Fashion Week Fall 2012 were decidedly covetable. Faves in the mix were the mohawks-out-of-ponytails at Spon Diogo and the double-twists-plus-loopty-loops ...

Shoe of the Day: Chloe “Susan” Boot
Tuesday, February 7th, 2012
Chloe has recently re-released its covetable "Susan", a studded leather bootie loved by such street style icons as Erin Wasson and Kate Bosworth. While back in black, I am loving the cream alternative, now available at Barneys--so much so that ...

Tuesday, February 7th, 2012
With styles shown by a number of designers within collections that span through September (including Chloe Resort 2012, Prada Spring 2012 and Prabal Gurung Pre-Fall 2012), the bomber jacket is arguably one of the smartest investment pieces of the year. ...

Shoe of the Day: Givenchy Pre-Fall 2012 Boot
Monday, February 6th, 2012
A collection that appears both inspired by equestrian wear and ready for the street, the Givenchy Pre-Fall 2012 lineup--more than any other--has me chomping at the bit for the launch of the Fall shows. I blame the boots. Seemingly riding ...

Look of the Day: Akris Spring 2012
Monday, February 6th, 2012
The ad campaign for Swiss label Akris' Spring 2012 collection is characteristically minimal and feminine. To me, one of the greatest elements of the luxury brand is the perfect fit and overall effortlessness of its pieces. The woman who wears ...
