The Verdict: Hey back to you and we see you sliding into our DMs super late! Nevertheless, we got your message and would be more than happy to fill you in on this duo’s metallic fit! Chloe x Halle are wearing an ensemble by fashion label, Baja East. Their looks hail from the brand’s Resort 2019 collection.

Chloe is rocking the Baja East 2019 Resort Silk Lame Jacket, Harem pants as well as Bandeau top. Her just as glamorous sister, Halle, stuns in the brand’s silver metallic strapless dress. This Resort 2019 line is a favorite among celebrities, being seen recently on CFDA’s 2019 Fashion Icon, JLO.

Ask and Tell: Lauren London Wearing Nichole Lynel Dress

Arianne February 15, 2019February 15, 2019

The Item: Actress Lauren London Wearing Nichole Lynel sparkling fringe dress. The screen siren was spotted in her eye-popping look while in attendance for an after Grammy party.

You Asked: 1966 please help! I have been commenting on the Nichole Lynel page and no one is answering. I am trying to get some details regarding Lauren London’s dress. Can we buy it or not?

Ask and Tell: Lauren London Wearing Nichole Lynel Dress

The Verdict: Sorry guys, but the news on this look is currently a little stylishly sketch. While there is plenty of fashion evidence that this design does in fact exist. Now being spotted on the gorgeous Lauren London; however, to be honest we have not seen this head-turning design since the NL’s fab runway show.

We scoured the brand’s site and all of our detective work turned up zilch. Therefore, our conclusion is that Nichole has the look ready to go; it’s just not currently “in production.”

Nevertheless, now that much interest has been churned up thanks to London; perhaps NL will go ahead and make the look available for purchase. We believe it would sell extremely well thanks to its dazzling one-shoulder and fringe detailing. The perfect gown for a voguish night on the town. Nonetheless, as of now we will have to wait to see if this dress becomes apart of the official Nichole Lynel lineup.

Hope that answered your fashion question! If you or a style obsessed gal pal has one they would like to ask give us a follow on Instagram, slide into our DMs and ask away.

Maison Valentino Pre-Fall 2019 Fashion Show- See the Looks!

ArianneUpdated on November 27, 2018November 27, 2018

Falling roses, gorgeous models and deliciously vogue designs; elegantly make up the Maison Valentino Pre-Fall 2019 Fashion Show! The runway spectacular was presented in Tokyo, Japan at the infamous Warehouse TERRADA. A venue that nonstop holds galleries, markets as well as events in order to help support, as well as spread art and culture.

Our favorite pieces? Can’t say that one stood out among all the others; however, the color palette is beautiful! Red gowns (a signature color for Valentino) as far as the eye could see. Also, strong use of denim and two tone clothing.

Furthermore, one look that was super cute to us is an all-sweater ensemble. Actually, it is more so of a “cape” over a dress, but adorbs nonetheless. It is a cozy looking, woven masterpiece that stretches all the way down to the knees. With a stylish pair of boots you will easily and effortlessly look chic.

Other than a pretty cream, florals and sophisticated black looks complete the collection. Black tone clothing is great because the hue is timeless. Looks great on everyone and never really goes out of style or “trend.” Thus, making any black outfit pretty classic.

Maison Valentino Pre-Fall 2019 Fashion Show

Creative Director, Pierpalo Piccioli definitely put on quite the show. Regarding his presentation the humble designer simply stated via social, “Thank you everyone who made this dream come true. You know who you are.”

Nevertheless, the brand itself had a few more words on the subject. In regards to the highly anticipated show and its designs; the couture label explains it as,

“A dialogue between perfection and imperfection, permanence and caducity. Two ideas of beauty are compared: one strives for balance, symmetry, harmony; the other is asymmetrical, and favors what is impermanent.

Distant elements meet and merge in the interval that separates them; showing the gesture of clashing opposites instead of hiding it. The iconography of the Maison – the ruffles, the lace, the grace; and then the flowers, the colors, the motifs – is interpreted in a wabi sabi key.

Volumes are purified, ruffles are crushed, pleats are misaligned. Valentino Pre-Fall 2019 by Pierpalo Piccioli.”

What about the men? Well, still plenty of couture looks to love. The color scheme for the show was incorporated into all of the mens’ fashion too. We loved all of the long coats and relaxed suits. Relaxed we say? Yup, peep the untucked shirts. Ingenious Piccioli!

However, more on the men in our follow-up feature. Be sure to check it out in our Get Your Man Right series. Until then, check out more rouge looks from the show!

Pyer Moss Wins 2018 CFDA Vogue Fashion Fund-Congrats Kerby Jean-Raymond!

Arianne November 7, 2018November 7, 2018

It’s not all sunshine kids. When people see others reaching success, they normally envision a steady upward movement towards the top. However, reality is a different beast. It’s filled with ups, downs, tears, blood, sweat and at times; years of hustle and grind. The story behind fashion label Pyer Moss Wins 2018 CFDA Vogue Fashion Fund; is one of triumph and a prime example as to why you should never EVER give up on yourself; or your dreams.

He believed, and so he did. Kerby Jean-Raymond, the couture genius behind Pyer Moss is a winner. Jean-Raymond won the coveted CFDA Fashion Fund for 2018. A move and fund started back in 2003 in order to help up and coming American design talent to find continued success in the tough business of fashion. Not only do designers receive mentorship from established industry leaders; the fund provides significant financial awards to one or more designers in order to help in such areas as: marketing, public relations, production and sales.

Pyer Moss Wins 2018 CFDA Vogue Fashion Fund-Congrats Kerby Jean-Raymond

Nevertheless, what is Kerby Jean-Raymond’s story? How did he “make it?” In a statement regarding his win Kerby relates,

“18 years designing. 5 years with Pyer Moss. A bunch of fails, mad press, but very few wholesale accounts for a while. 3 eviction notices, mad overdrafts, crazy number of heartbreaks [and] employee turnover. People doubted me so much, I even started to believe it.

Few things remained consistent except my core team, friends and family. So thank you guys for this opportunity to rest last year and reset. Thank you [designer] Aurora James for following me around with this camera last night like a proud auntie.

This ride has been insane – we won, in Brooklyn. Thank you the PM team, friends, family, judges, Vogue, CFDA and Reebok. We’re ready for whatever comes next. Love.”

As you can see, it has not been just a walk in the park. Put did you notice his drive? He may have had to reset, rethink and fail; but he NEVER gave up. We hope the same for any of you reading this feature. You can do it too, because like Kerby Jean-Raymond we all have the same amount of hours in the day; it’s just what we choose to do with them. Keep going.

Fashionable Mention: Givenchy Women’s Foldover-Cuff Leather Ankle Boots

ArianneUpdated on October 5, 2018October 5, 2018

We are loving all of these “hybrid” couture designs! Our latest obsession is with a pair of boot heels by luxury label, Givenchy. The look? A heel that seems to be part kitten heel, half boot and simply ingenius. Allow us to fashionably introduce you the Givenchy Women’s Foldover-Cuff Leather Ankle Boots!

Fashionable Mention: Givenchy Women’s Foldover-Cuff Leather Ankle Boots

No your eyes are not playing tricks on you. Givenchy’s Artistic Director Clare Waight Keller (yes, the fab woman behind the Duchess of Sussex’s infamous wedding gown); wanted to reimagine the traditional boot heel design. Her creation from the fall 2018 collection is the perfect juxtaposition between safe and edgy.

If your personal style flair tends to lean towards being “out of the box;” then these shoes will certainly fit the bill. The boot plus simplistic heel alone make for quite the fashion statement. However, the black and white color also thrusts the designer ankle boot to an even more voguish realm.

Speaking of the design the fashion brand states that it is “crafted in Italy of white smooth leather. [Furthermore it is] detailed with a silver mirrored sole. This sleek pair [of boots] features a black asymmetric foldover cuff and cone heel.”

Love what you see? This modern take on boot heels is available for purchase right now. It can be bought online and in-store from Barney’s New York. The price? This shoe item currently is retailing for $995.
