COVET: Canada Goose

Looking stylish and feeling warm when the weather drops down to the single digits always proves to be a hard, if not impossible, feat to master. Sometimes no matter how much you layer under your coat, there is no substitution for a truly warm parka. Not all parkas are the same. Some are truly more equipped at keeping you toasty and fashionable…for a hefty price, of course.

Picnic State of Mind

Escapism is the key word for the day. The freezing cold weather in New York and this stubborn cold that I just can’t seem to shake has got me yearning for sun rays, a day spent lazily lounging by a pool, a warm afternoon nap by the ocean or a summer picnic unencumbered by winter accessories.

Parrot Cay, Turks & Caicos

It’s not hard to tell looking at these images why Parrot Cay resort in Turks & Caicos is exactly where I wish my behind was right now!

No-Fuss Dressing

Getting dressed has been a huge chore for me lately. Maybe it’s the gloomy weather we’ve been experiencing in New York or just pure fashion laziness, but my lack of outfit inspiration has been drawing me towards the simple and easy jumpsuit. This super versatile all-in-one number takes the guess-work out of looking cool and pulled together from day to night.

New York Label To Watch: TOME

TOME‘s Australian designers Ryan Lobo and Ramon Martin have been awarded the 2013 Ecco Domani’s Fashion Foundation Awards prize of $25,000 to help them present their new collection at New York Fashion Week. The New York based TOME, launched in 2011, is following in some pretty impressive footsteps. Prior winners include Derek Lam, Rodarte’s Kate and Laura Mulleavy and Alexander Wang.

Prabal Gurung x Target

Just as expected the Prabal Gurung for Target collaboration  is chock-full of lovely floral and graphic prints that are in sync with the designer’s M.O. and his inspiration for the romantic 80-piece collection: love. Gurung delivers flirty dresses and feminine accessories to cover every step of your love story from the crush to the first kiss.

COVET: Zara Studio Trousers

Let it be known that today, January 9th 2013, is the day my luck, my terrible luck, changed for the better. No, I did not win the lottery, find a bag full of cash in a paper bag on the subway or even win a week’s worth of free soup at my current favorite lunch spot Hale & Hearty.

Chloe Pre-Fall 2013

Really cool clothes that blend boyish cuts with girlie touches and kick-ass boots. I can see myself living in these ’60s mod inspired silk shirtdresses, cropped trousers and boxy cut coats.
