How I Style a Long White Shirt for the Summer

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]A[/dropcap] number of weeks ago in this post I wrote about how to style a white shirt. And today I am showing how I styled my white shirt. I picked up this shirt a few weeks ago at the Zara in Soho. This shirt is super comfortable and perfect for the hot weather. It is light and airy and the long relaxed fit means it won’t be too clingy in the more warm humid days of summer. I

A Beautiful Illustrated Tote From Anthropologie and My Answer to too Much Black

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]B[/dropcap] eing a consummate New Yorker I wear a lot of black. Black clothes, black shoes, black coats, black accessories, but when summer roles around the last thing I feel like doing is carrying around a heavy black bag. Last week I spoke about the blush suede bag I picked up at Zara, well here is a beauty that I picked up at Anthropologie a few weeks ago and you will not believe how much I paid for this stunner.

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]A[/dropcap] few weeks ago we looked at Mango’s Spring Summer 2015 collection which featured a lot of 70’s inspired boho looks, with the pre-fall collection the 70’s vibe is still present but it has given way to a more stream lined urban feel. Prints are kept to a minimum and are expressed in stripes, leopard print and the occasional floral pattern. S

Spring’s Eden, Anthropologie, and a Light but Effective Hand Cream—Perfect for Summer

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]I[/dropcap] like many in our population, suffer from dry skin and even had this problem as a kid. Seems this is something that funs in our family and can be rather a pain to deal with. But luckily along with antioxidants, using hand cream and body lotion and oils keeps this problem at bay. During the summer months the problem is not quite as intense

Chloé Resort 2016 for Lookbook Friday

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]T[/dropcap] he Chloé aesthetic is certainly my aesthetic. I love the independent yet girly vibe of the brand. And the Resort Collection for 2016 fully embraces this aesthetic and adds a new bohemian twist to the looks. From the over-sized flare jeans to the studded man tailored trousers to the flowing eyelet dresses and repeated use of leopard print, the line straddles the fence between boho chic and London Mod Carneby Street style.

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]Y[/dropcap]Yes summer has finally arrived here in the north east and that means we all want to glow with a “healthy” looking tan. And we all know that a tan via the sun is anything but healthy. Of course today we have many choices in achieving a sun-kissed look without the aid of the sun. The two most popular are spray tans, and self-tanners.

Satu Maaranen and the Spring-Summer Collection 2015 for Lookbook Friday

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]I[/dropcap] n this age of fast fashion it is hard sometimes to remember that fashion can be, and is often considered a work of art. We all fall prey to coveting the latest trends and lusting after the who’s who in designer brands. And yes this quite a guilty pleasure of mine...
