OOTD: The Debut of My Alexander Wang Rocco

eye4style — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 13:40:48 -0700

In a perfect world, every bag would be the Alexander Wang Rocco.

Well made, with aggressive hardware and deliciously supple leather cut to look like velvet (you can smell the dead animal from six feet away), it's recently risen the ranks to be among my very favorites. So, today, I kept things uber simple and let the bag be the star.

Head to toe, and shopping for jam at Le Pain Quotidien:

Tom Ford Jennifer Sunglasses in Black
Nine West Scarf (Gift, no longer available)
American Apparel Acid Wash Jersey Deep V-Neck T in Black
Gap Cropped Skinny Jeans in White Wash
Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent Mason Buckle Wedge
Alexander Wang Rocco Mini Duffel in Cut Velvet Leather (Smoke)

OOTD: Crouching Dina

This season, my perennial fashion quest was for the perfect white jean. High and low I searched, resulting in countless hours wasted in dressing rooms across the city.

Along the way, I learned a thing or two. Firstly and most importantly, white jeans are IMPOSSIBLE. Most are insanely unflattering, in part due to the lighter fabric used by so many brands. Gap (a store I never, ever shop, to be clear) is the one exception I've discovered to date; their white denim is thick enough and opaque enough to disguise the majority of my (notable!) flaws. In short, WELL DONE Gap!

In honor of the gorgeous weather in New York today (the humidity of the weekend has broken), I built a neutral look around them, with a single pop of color:

Tory Burch sunglasses (no longer available)
Elizabeth Cole Dagger Necklace via Gilt Groupe (no longer available)
J.Crew Eliza Camisole (no longer available)
Martin & Osa Cashmere Cardigan (no longer available)
Gap Cropped Skinny Jean in White Wash
Balenciaga Giant City in Outremer (no longer available)
Cynthia Vincent Mason Wedge

Do tell...have you discovered the perfect white jean for Summer 2010? I'd love to hear about it in the comments!

For the Love of (Fashion) Multiples

eye4style — Fri, 06 Mar 2009 08:26:05 -0800

With all this talk of Octomom, my mind has turned to multiples lately. Multiples of the fashion variety, of course.

I don't know about you but when I find an item that I love, I tend to stock up. This has some pluses and minuses. While it's good to have multiples of staple items, if you buy too many, you risk looking the same everyday (which anyone who has seen me in a cardigan and long camisole can attest to.)

Here's a list of the multiples in my wardrobe currently:

25 Hanky Panky Thongs
12 J.Crew Cardigans (different colors/prints/styles)
10 Honeydew Mesh Boyshorts
5 DVF Wrap Dresses (various prints)
4 pairs of Old Navy Diva Skinny Jeans
4 American Apparel Tri-Blend Deep V Te es
3 Pairs of Low Top Converse All Stars
3 Gap Ultimate Push Up Bras
2 J.Crew Eliza Camisoles
2 Norma Kamali for Wal-Mart Batwing Sleeve Sweatshirts
2 Louis Vuitton Speedy's (Used to be four but I recently sold a red Epi 25 and a Damier 25)
2 Pairs of Uggs

What fashion multiples have you succumbed to? Leave a comment and share!
