My love for colo(u)red denim is no secret. I wear my crimson Rag & Bone skinnies weekly and relish in complements. They go with so many different outfits, I consider them my fashion lay-up. And while many people might look at this photo and first notice Rachel’s Burberry studded metallic leather bowling bag (sold out) – I go ga-ga over her burgundy (merlot, magenta, purple, or “wine”) colored cords. Tucked into her Zara ankle booties, Rachel’s look is perfect for fall.
For those looking to start slowly, or keep it office appropriate, stick to basic blank skinny cords – I live in my J Brands! They’re so comfortable and soft they feeling like a cotton legging. So great for travel. They are a 10 with flats, boots or heels. A great one-pair-of-pants packing option. DONE!
summer isn’t over… squeeze in all you can! I’m coveting this watch, bag and shoes to fall into fall.
Make a statement with a bold navy face and soft rose gold bezel and strap with Michael by Michael Kors “Bel Air” wristwatch. Even the name sounds regal. Clare Vivier’s “SeeVivier La Tropézienne” tote is the perfect casual yet chic bag to tote all weekend long, in the city or at the cottage. Big enough to fit your essentials, but small enough to keep it from turning into a suitcase… And lastly, J.Crew’s MacAlister wedge booties are a current take on desert boots that offer your legs (and derrière) a flattering lift. Fashion meets function when paired with white skinny jeans, short-shorts (a wedge heel doesn’t look trashy with a short hem-line like other high heels can – the daring can rock cut-off denim Daisy Dukes!), linen pants, a sundress, or skirt. Add a silk blouse (neutral of summer 2011 bright), and you’re set!
Jonathan Adler is a design company offering gorgeous pieces for your home. Celebrities like Lauren Conrad are fans, and so am I. When I moved from West Hollywood to Brentwood back in February, I took it as an excuse for some redecorating. I ordered these gorgeous “K” and “D” letter pillows (we know I’m a sucker for anything monogrammed), and a custom British Flag (Union Jack) pillow in 20 by 22 (inches). Call it the Commonwealth connection (or the year I lived in England), but I’ve always been drawn to all-things-British… and they don’t offer my home-and-native land – Canada’s – flag. Hand made in Peru, my pillows took three and a half months to be ready. After picking them up, and placing them on display on my chocolate-brown leather couch… I’m in ♥.
Looking for an $$$ investment bag to take you from the office, school run, lunch – to wherever your night takes you? Roberto Cavalli’s “DIVA” tote IS IT. Rachel first introduced us to this bag when she wore it last fall at his 40th anniversary party in Paris – and now, it’s available to the rest of us. The dashing diva will get a lot of mileage out of the black, and for the daring… consider perforated cream. Big enough to fit your iPad, laptop, water bottle, camera, or even gym clothes.
This bag’s luscious leather, leopard silk lining and gold hardware say it all. Subtle branding with RC’s logo is a regal logo I can’t help but love…with it’s inherent structure it’s a timeless classic.
