It’s New York Fashion Week and I Don’t Care…

In fact, I have no plans to watch anything they’re streaming.  I just don’t seem to care anymore.  It’s not that I don’t like clothing or because I feel like the styles don’t apply to me, it’s just that it’s not something I’m not interested in writing much about anymore.  I feel like my posts […]

Kenzo x H&M Launches Next Week…

and I absolutely HATE it.  I really don’t understand why they even bothered with the collaboration.  Sure, I haven’t actually purchased anything from any of H&M’s collabs since, oh, I don’t know, Marni, and haven’t “loved” an entire collection since Lanvin (actually, I think that was the only collection I was absolutely IN LOVE with.  […]

WMCFW Yays, Nays & Mehs: Spring/Summer 2016 Edition

Yes, back again with my wrap of World MasterCard Fashion Week.  And due to a crazy schedule, I did not attend many shows this season either (or, at least, not as many as I could have). Yays: Star Wars:   Loved the R2D2 shoes on display.  The Force is definitely with us. Press and Buyers’ […]

WMCFW FW15 Wrap-Up: Yays, Nays and Mehs

I’m actually not sure if I can really post one this season, since I only went to six shows over a period of three days (this is what happens when there are too many events on your plate.  Ahhh… the life of a lifestyle blogger).  However, I do this every season, so I’ll try my […]

Sid Neigum: Many Practical Shades of Neutrals

Sid Neigum, who won the 2014-2015 Mercedes-Benz Start Up competition last season, presented his collection Monday evening, the first night of World MasterCard Fashion Week.  The models walked down the runway to a string quartet, wearing pieces which were a combination of very wearable pieces to ones which were a bit more artistic.  The palate […]

Nili Lotan: A Delectable Line for the Chic, Sophisticated Woman

I recently had the wonderful opportunity to speak with trendy, New York-based designer Nili Lotan.  Ms. Lotan’s pieces, often celebrity favourites, target a sophisticated woman who is not only looking for classic, long-lasting style, but also comfort.  The current Fall/Winter collection is filled with loose, comfortable pieces that pair well with skinnies or leggings and […]
