The other day, a lot of you asked me where the bag in my illustration came from.
I don’t know how any of you put together that I was inspired by a real bag (Seriously ? You guys are goooooood!) but… Here we go !
The simplicity and coolitude of this bag is to die for. I’ve been wearing it for a week and everyone has been asking where I got it – even with a drawing! :)
The Trend: Lace
How I would wear it: Seriously, with everything. I like mixing it up with something a little bit tougher like some of those tomboy pieces we talked about this morning…
How would you wear it… Lace on lace like in the Burberry picture?
Best Looks: From left to right, Organic by John Patrick, Burberry, Nina Ricci, DKNY, Sea.
Overalls, bermudas, sneakers, boyfriend jeans, boyfriend shirts, tuxedos, baseball caps… If you put together everything that’s in style right now, you’d find yourself dressing like a guy real fast.
How do you figure out the right amount?
The Trend: Bermuda Shorts
How I would wear it: With a slouchy sweater? I love the low waist / high waist feel of the Reed Krakoff one in the center though. AND with heels. You have to have the longest legs in the universe to be able to pull off that look with flats, don’t you think?
How would you wear it? Would you dare with flats like in some of the pictures?
Best Looks: From left to right, Tibi, Chloé, Reed Krakoff, Christopher Kane and Phillip Lim.
I’m having serious headband envy…
Oooooooooh, no not again, Audrey Hepburn!!!
That’s kind of how it feels, right?
When so many admire the same person, it becomes too common, too easy, and in the end whenever you hear her name you raise an exhausted eyebrow.
That didn’t stop me from buying the book Audrey in Rome the other day with the idea of looking at it on the beach in Montauk. Scott raised an exhausted eyebrow, obviously.
Of course, it rained (isn’t that how all stories are ending this spring?) and we found ourselves stuck in traffic (isn’t that how all weekends start in the Hamptons?) and I started flipping through the pages in the car.
Ten minutes later opening the book, I finally said to Scott…
“Wow, that Audrey Hepburn was seriously cool.”
He started cranking his neck to try to get a look at the book while driving – so we ended up pulling over to get a coffee. We then proceeded to devour the book in its entirety and came to some conclusions about her style.
Here are a few…
Heavy metal at Chanel.
A cool silicone tote from Alexander Wang.
