NYFW: Marc by Marc Jacobs

I have noticed that it is usually one end of the spectrum or the other with Marc's collections- I either love LOVE them or I dislike them- A LOT. The good news for Spring 2013 is that I love LOVE Marc by Marc Jacobs. He stayed true to the youthful, punchy geometric prints that he does so well. The whole collection was full of candy-colored prints and flirty dresses that you want to wear every single day. I especially love the hair wraps- nice touch!

The Styling Sessions

The September shows are my favorite because they feature the Spring 2013 collections, and also because the weather in NY is still warm enough to flaunt the light & airy get-ups of Summer. Fashion's finest have really stepped it up this week throwing together a bevy of beautiful outfits. Here are a few of my favorites...

Haute Loot

I recently came across ilootpaperie and fell in love with their greeting cards. I mean, who in their right mind wouldn't want to receive one of these clever notes? My favorite is "Pop it like it's hot!"- too cute!

Milk Bar

TokyoMilk offers up some of the best & prettiest packaging on the beauty market, and their shea butter hand creams do not derail. I love the clean presentation combined with science lab meets curiosity shop-like illustrations. Best of all? They come with a matching drawstring pouch to keep 'em safe.

Spotlight: Lauren Moffatt

Do you have a mental list {like I do} of items that you passed up buying- for one reason or another- that come back to haunt you?  I have several items on this list: the rainbow Prada flats from Spring 2004, the royal blue patent leather Sperry topsiders from last year, and the Lauren Moffatt red and blue stripe dress from last Summer- I still stalk Ebay for these items. Let it be known that Lauren Moffatt ALWAYS makes some pretty cool pieces, and her Fall 2012 collection is no different. So, just a word to the wise... if you see something you like below snap. it. up. because it will be gone!
