Quelle Dommage! Alexander McQueen will not be showing during Paris Fashion Week, reports Women’s Wear Daily today.  Why? Because Sarah Burton, it’s creative director, is pregnant with twins and will be on maternity leave.  Don’t fret though, a scaled down presentation will be held in the label’s Paris showroom for select editors.  Burton is due […]

Makeup artists love to push the envelope and sometimes they go a bit too far.  Yesterday, UK beauty brand Illamasqua posted on its Australian Facebook wall its holiday campaign featuring a white model in blackface with the caption, “I’m Not dreaming of a white Christmas.” The folks at Jezebel caught wind of the ad and […]

Damn American media can’t stop making a mound into a mole hill.  Anna Nicole Smith’s six year-old daughter Dannielynn is modeling for GUESS.  The bubbly blonde looks exactly like her mother, showing off the GUESS kids brand. The tasteful ads show Dannielynn as a little girl enjoying a day at the beach.  The innocent ads […]

J.Crew’s creative director Jenna Lyons makes a splash every time she steps out of her house.  Rocking her signature thick wire frames, every pant or jean pairing is immaculate.  As the ultimate spokesperson for the brand, she truly shows us how to wear J.Crew.

Lanvin made a big statement late this summer when it unveiled its fall 2012 campaign starring non-models ranging in from 18 to 62. Yea we said 62!  The video of the campaign shows the 11 models posing for Steven Meisel.  They also share their personal stories with voice overs.  You’re going to love it. Check […]

We know you were miffed when Hedi Slimane, the new creative director for Saint Laurent Paris (yea sounds really weird not saying YVES) announced MAY-jah changes at the French fashion house formerly known as Yves Saint Laurent.  Aside from the not giving us regular folks a sneak peek at his resort collection and moving the […]

Roger Vivier’s Pilgrim collection isn’t new but since Marc Jacobs has been sporting pilgrim shoes all over the place – models in his fall 2012 campaign also wear them – I can’t help but obsess over Vivier’s original creation.  I saw the collection of shoes and clutches at Jeffrey’s in the Meatpacking District and couldn’t […]

Bruno Frisoni’s accessories for Roger Vivier’s spring 2013 collection is ethereal and inspired by Marilyn Monroe.  The Rendez-Vous collection, according to Frisoni, was loosely inspired by the late silver screen icon’s ‘luminescent and fragile aura.”  In the collection is a pink resin clutch with rouged lips, “as if kissed by Marilyn,” a black-and-nude tulle heel, […]

I especially love […]
