Pamela Barsky Shop on Etsy makes me seriously ask myself that question. Also: how much money is too much money to spend on lots of cosmetic bags? Why am I so taken with cosmetic bags? Maybe it’s because the artist seems to understand my affinity for New York, and not in a I’ve-never-been-to-New-York-but-I-own-the-Sex-and-the-City-box-set kind of way. But in […]
First mint, then pink–apparently we can’t get enough of pastels. The latest Easter egg hue to step into the spotlight is the binary of last season’s blushing pink, and in the interest of all things soft and fluffy, I approve. Donning baby blue will make you feel as if you’re wearing a cloud–or attending an anti-climactic […]

Without a doubt, my favorite resort collection this year. A simple, bold color palette grounded in blue and red, and an interesting mix of print, jacquard, and color-blocking make Prabal Gurung’s resort collection, titled “Unconditional Love” and consisting of chunky knits to floor-length gowns, a practical yet eye-catching affair. I’ve always had a soft spot […]
It’s finally summer, which means less clothing and more skin–although, ironically, it also means restocking your wardrobe with all the requisite apparel. Sheer Paneling Because everyone loves playing the peekaboo game right now, but not all of us are Rihanna. High Necks/Square Necks The perfect way to balance out the ubiquitous crop top, not […]
Maybe it’s the approach of summer and ridiculously high temps, but recently I’ve found myself being drawn to the effortless appeal of dresses. I’ve always been one for simplicity. I like throwing on a dress and adding just a few of my own subtle details. Though my personality may reflect otherwise, I can’t help but […]
Last Monday, Rihanna was awarded the coveted title of 2014 Fashion Icon by the CFDA. Some were happy, some were not, but all of that was eclipsed by the now ubiquitous image of a practically-naked Rihanna on the red carpet at the award show. Full disclosure: I’m not Rihanna’s biggest fan, but for reasons other […]
Convenience seems to be an obsession in our culture. One-stop shopping is the way we do things (have you been to a Super Target?), and now that extends to online shopping. Apparently, no one has time to “surf” the Web anymore; the bookmarks tab has become so twentieth century. Now, even one-stop browsing has become […]
A retro flair with a touch of preppy quirk for good measure–Zooey Deschanel’s capsule collection for Tommy Hilfiger, which was finally made available last month, has my heart aflutter. Dubbed by the actress/singer/designer as “modical,” the line is comprised of retro dresses with red and navy color blocking, pleats, and a nautical motif, pretty much […]
Memorial weekend is almost upon us, which means the unofficial inauguration of summer and the celebration of all things related–hot dogs, American flags, day-drinking, and white clothing. The past year has been a year for rule-breaking, sartorially speaking, so if you’ve been wearing white all through the winter, don’t fret; Memorial weekend is simply another […]
