Fashion Combo Fur and Enlarged Scarves

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015February 10, 2015Leave a Comment

Half the country is freezing their rastafarian-nay-nays off (OMG wasn’t Cool Runnings an awesome movie!) and the other half is somewhat surviving on erratic weather. Here in California some days are typical warm Cali days and then the next day its raining. For those who need to keep warm but still want to look fresh and modern, try uniting the scarf and fur coat with a nice pair of pants or denim.

The shirt for this ensemble can be plain since it will be hidden by an quite large scarf. You will stay nice and warm with this couture combination yet look fashion forward. Remember scarves and fur coats can be bold all on their own; therefore, when adding accessories such as a handbag be sure to match it to one piece or the other in order to maintain cohesion.

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015February 5, 2015Leave a Comment

Binx Walton is one of six models to be apart of Alexander Wang’s SS 2015 ad campaign. The party bus theme features the ladies oozing with stylish sass and sex appeal. In a season drowning with campaigns casting celebrities Wang holds true to using models to showcase his designs.

Wang says, “These girls, most of whom have been in my campaigns for a couple of seasons now—I think it’s just to show that I really believe in them. I always am a big advocate for models. In this moment, I just really felt that there’s a lot of great new faces, and could do something that really showed this authentic, genuine message of them hanging out, and also their relationship to the brand. And how fun they are.”

Karen Walker Spring/Summer 2015 Ad Campaign

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015February 5, 2015Leave a Comment

I couldn’t wait to do a write up regarding Karen Walker’s ad campaign for spring/summer because it has two things that I love: sunglasses and cuteness. In a world of super models, where 5’9 and kick butt cheek bones can score some camera time Walker’s campaign deviates from the fashion industry “norm.” For her collection she chose an unlikely yet fitting model who is huge on Instagram. Ladies and gentlemen we present, Toast, the adorable pooch showcasing Karen’s latest looks.

Toast models five different sunglasses in high fashion glam style with full wind effects and perfect lighting. The campaign was shot by photographer Tom Schirmacher who captured Walker’s vision perfectly. Regarding the campaign and her choice to cast Toast Karen said, “We were after a model for this campaign who could fit with our caramel-y color palette and also someone whose hair would work with our three wind machines hitting her from every angle to create a slightly ’70s vibe. Toast ticked every one of those boxes.”

Fashionable Mention: Alexander McQueen RTW Spring 2015

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015February 2, 2015Leave a Comment

We like it, we love it and we definitely want more of it! This heel by Alexander McQueen has a lot going on but it all flows together quite nicely. There are cutouts, string lace ups, cute petal detailing (so perfect for spring) and oh yeah missing the back of the heel! Well not quite, it is there just not in the traditional way. Instead of a vertical heel it has been replaced with a curved version that is found only at the base.

Swarovski Spring/Summer 2015 Collection

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015February 2, 2015Leave a Comment

The right accessory can add so much value and beauty to your couture look. We were excited to see Swarovski’s 2015 spring/summer collection which inspiration was drawn from a dreamy, modern garden. Nathalie Colins who is the collection’s Creative Director mentioned:

“The Crystal Garden collection reaffirms the brand’s passion for modernity, which is why we have turned to flora, fauna, and insects for inspiration to create fluid and feminine lines and motifs.”

The entire collection color palette flows from springtime pastels to warmer summer tints. Moreover, playing off the nature theme the jewelry accessories’ stones were cut as to resemble petals and leaves. We fell in love with the Celeste Cuff (pictured above) due to its elegant as well as intricate design.

What to Wear Spring 2015: Moroccan Flava

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015January 30, 2015Leave a Comment

As the saying goes, “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” Avoid any fashion disaster moments this spring and prep those closets with the right couture. We loved the Nicholas K Spring 2015 Ready-To-Wear collection that’s inspiration was road tripping through Morocco. We were sold with the cargo pants (so comfortable) and gorgeous shawls but then the collection upped the ante with silk tops, side tied skirts (the 90s are back baby) as well as super cute knee length shorts.

Just in case you forgot about the trends we mentioned last fall, for the next few weeks we will be reviewing the styles that we know you will want to wear this upcoming season! The Kaelen Spring 2015 Ready-To-Wear Collection included florals, stripes and everything nice. The collection stuck mostly with a creamy beige, neutral color scheme but deviated with a few print designed pieces in the nautical and botanical realm. This spring you can look stylish by wearing a one neutral color ensemble or punch it up with a print.
