Thanks for tuning in for another blog installment. I am eager to present this week’s goodie bag picks.
BURBERRY PRORSUM
BURBERRY understands the classicism and versatility of a trench coat. With colors like khaki, ivory and black, choosing only one will is hard, so feel free to collect all three. Open your closet door and pair them with anything; dresses, tunics, button downs, blouses, leather pants, skinny jeans, your favorite skirt, or a hat (such as a fedora, a brimmed hat, even a skull-cap), boots, clogs, heels, wedges, ballet shoes. Every girl should own at least one trench.
CLUBPLANET NEW YORK
I’ve comprised a look from a panel of designer labels, impressive when worn together. To extend the life of each piece, merge them into different outfits. I love this tuxedo jacket, it enhances any look. The draped silk wrap dress can work alone or with pants. These cropped leather motocross pants can transition from contemporary chic to rocker cool in a New York minute. Karl Lagerfeld loves leather clogs and rightfully so, a perfect range of boot to shoe, depending how you wear them. And no evening is complete without a satin clutch.
BULLET-PROOF LOOK
All comfort no sacrifice. Harmonize this pinstripe cotton shirt with leather, pleated skirts, wide-leg or skinny trousers, even a denim mini or simply roll your jeans and throw on a pair of moccasins. Thanks to super heroes and rockers, glossed leather motocross pants are ultra cool; dress them down with a graphic tee and unlaced Dr. Martens’ boots or glam them up with wedged boots, a tunic and blazer-jacket. Raven cut-out textured leather boots are a refreshing alternative to your average boot. These peep-toes compliment tunic dresses, cropped pants, slim jeans and denim skirts. The “Darcy” slouchy textured leather hobo is more than just an IT bag; it soars straight into iconic status. Studded bottom adds a rebel flare, while the hobo aspect keeps things low-key for most usage. Integrating a crystal-embellished acrylic watch to your accessories arsenal is seriously playful.
THE WEEKENDER
Coco Chanel paved the way for women to enjoy menswear without raiding a man’s closet. This silk crepe jacket works easily for lounging, the office, even a party. A classic racer-back jersey tank is crisp in white and works like a cami. Cotton-silk blend high-waisted shorts maintain refined in taupe and lend sophistication to blouses and shoes. Perforated leather brogues are crossing into Spring, offering a robust demeanor to sweaters, tops of all kind, skinny jeans, cropped pants, skirts and shorts. Leather-frame aviator sunglasses flatter any face and most ensembles with an array of colors and styles to select from. Earth-tone beaded necklaces make the best accessories; they’re effortlessly attractive and take least effort to pull-off. Medium leather shoulder bags are by far the most useful and universally loved.
LUNCH RESERVATIONS
Second time around is the silk crepe jacket and notice how well it draws the look together. Draped jersey dresses are functional and take minimal effort to accessorize. Chunky gold-plated rings add life to a subtle outfit. Hammered gold-plated cuffs reminisce of ancient gods and royalty, it’s no wonder they bear a feeling of empowerment. Display them on their own or with companion adornments. Nothing says Spring/Summer quite like a woven clutch. Leather open-toe clogs are practical, mix and match with your entire wardrobe.
BEACHSIDE BUNGALOW
EMILIO PUCCI’s signature pattern is perfect for scarves, clutches, dresses and most recently a drawstring kaftan. Jelly sandals are comfy but super casual, most suitable for sand and boardwalk. Thousands of years ago the Egyptian empire solidified the gold-plated snake cuff and it still offers a splendid allure to date. A gold-plated chunky ring looks lovely on a manicured hand; keep nail lacquer sheer (colors like nude pink or flesh tone), so as not to overpower your jewelry. Round-frame acetate sunglasses are good for display up until sunset; use them often to hide your eyes from the damaging effects of UV Rays. The woven tote makes its way from the beach to the park, even shopping and back.
