Missoni for Converse Chuck Taylor All Star
It’s nice to see that, for its sophomore effort, Converse went in a darker direction in its collaboration with Missoni for Converse Chuck Taylor All Star shoes. The updated versions of the classic shoe feature black and white space dyed knits (in horizontal stripes and iconic zigzag) covering the sides and toecap, finished off with … Continue reading “Missoni for Converse Chuck Taylor All Star”
Twirl by Kate Spade New York
Through all its ups and downs, I have to admire Kate Spade for maintaining an unwavering air of sheer giddy femininity. Think colored tights and sparkly heels, festive fêtes and tables for two.

But then along comes Jennifer Aniston–not exactly a fashion plate known for … Continue reading “Jennifer Aniston in Tiffany & Co. Reversible Tote”
Cacharel Pivoines Dress
Maybe it’s because I live in New York City, but I like it when my girl friends wear stylish dresses seemingly inspired by artistic smocks. The whole art-cum-fashion trend was a huge hit several seasons ago–Thakoon, Dolce & Gabbana, Dior–but I say if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Cacharel is a brand I haven’t … Continue reading “Cacharel Pivoines Dress”
