Shamask S/S 2012 :

Shamask Returns to the Tents!!!












Fluid silhouettes and impeccable pleating details usher in the return of Shamask to New York Fashion Week and the coveted tents. With vivid color blocking colors in rich fabrics each ensemble is a fine example of luxurious spring and summer wear, a must have for any 'Hamptons' regular, or on a holiday to Saint Tropez. There is a casual chicness in the pieces and wearability is a smart direction where many designers can never pass specially during a down turn economy. Although Shamask delivers outstanding cuts and tailoring, with fluid jackets juxtaposed with structured pieces, everything still transitions from runway to everyday easily and still look high end.

Outfit of the DAY: October 30, 2011

Diesel Black Gold chunky knit hooded sweater. plain black vneck tee



Cold weather is at the doorstep, but I'm still resisting the whole heavy coat ensemble. It's Autumn and the weather is definitely unpredictable but a good chunky knit ( by Diesel Black Gold) specially with a hood is a wonderful alternative to carrying a heavy jacket. I like accessorizing with tone on tone, so black accessories is my usual go to pieces when wearing dark colors. From Calvin Klein bottle shaped sunglasses, to Armani Exchange leather/metal cuff, to my vintage consignment store find dragon medallion necklace. Other pieces of the outfit includes a distressed slim fit jeans by Bullhead and vneck tee (both from Pac Sun) and studded buckle boots by Aldo.

Black metal bead necklace (belt chains I created into a long strand necklace). Dragon medallion chain (consignment store find). oversized cotton scarf H&M

After a brief hiatus, I am returning my blog to re-focus on outfit of the day along with my fashion coverage. Today's kid's birthday party outfit was centered around this great vintage leather trench jacket- 70's inspired oversized collar and wide belt detail, a great consignment store find! My weekly sunglasses hunt led me to this Marc by Marc Jacobs dark tortoise shell shades (sorry not vintage). Faux Fur stole is by HM Fall 2011 (I also have the one from last year). Cinnamon color v-neck shirt and button down both by Gap, and distressed slim fit jeans by ZARA MAN. The western inspired boots by Aldo and the necklace by HM.

Elene Cassis S/S 2012: Classic Nostalgia

            

Inspired by the Greek Key, Elene Cassis Spring / Summer 2012 is reminiscent of the 60's but with a wonderful modern edge. The silhouettes are romantically nostalgic of some of the wardrobe First Lady Jackie Kennedy O' wore during her media and political appearances. Elene Cassis captured the understated elegance that Jackie O was known for. Several pieces were definitely geared towards the 'modern, powerful, career driven, independent' woman; a woman who can run a Fortune 500 company, but at the end of the day look chic as she shops Madison Avenue. Clean structured silhouettes with shorter hemlines juxtapose career and sexy amazingly.
