J.Crew Juxtaposition

There's something to be said about all things J.Crew.  Yes, Mickey Drexler is a retail god, but Jenna Lyons has got the face and the flair. You've got it give it to her- the creative genius has perfected the juxtaposition for all things from dressy combined with casual to menswear girly-ed up and now sweltering summer side by side from fresh Fall.  Grab your shorts and just add tights.

Fall Fashion Runway Review {Nanette Lepore}

I know we're in the midst of NYFW and the Spring Collections thus far have been ahh-maze-ing (hello, Marc Jacobs?!), but aren't you still yearning for Fall?  I love the smells, the coolness in the air, and all the luxe colors- cinnamons, aubergines, mochas!  Nanette Lepore owned Fall at its best and showcased saturated Fall hues and festive autumnal plaids.  She stepped up the glam with sequins in cardis and skirts and made sure her looks were all perfectly accessorized with snazzy booties and fashionable, yet functional legwear.  Fantastical Fall, don't you agree?
p.s. Did you know Starbucks has already brought back their seasonal latte- Pumpkin Spice?! Hello, Autumn!!

Fall Fashion Runway Review {Menswear | DKNY}

DKNY kept true to its brand image and delivered a collection that was both city and chic.

 

 It was all about the layering with dressed up hoodies under blazers and over button-ups

 An array of army chic colors ran the show from khakis to greys in straight-edged silhouettes to combat worthy socks

 

 And as for any urbanite, a bit of the unexpected came into play with bright pops of color

A Well-Seasoned Traveler's Necessity | Leggings

Have you ever sat on a plane for hours wondering why you chose that certain pair of jeans that require wiggling around on the floor like a moron just to get the zipper up?  Have you ever tried to undo that first button or tug at a belt loop while no one is looking in order to pull the denim over the muffin top that wearing a size too small produces. And as you get busted by your too close for comfort neighbor, do you find yourself wondering why you chose fashion over comfort when you could have had both?  LEGGINGS are my go-to bottoms for fabulous in-flight fashion and just in case you have jet-setting plans for this long weekend, here are a few other items you'll want to check off your list!
