wear: Drooling All Over the Overalls Trend
I will never forget the laughter and the general look of confusion from people who couldn’t understand why I never got rid of my Levi Strauss overalls from the 90s. “No one will wear overalls again” they said. My simple response? “Give it time”. Fast forward to 2014, and it’s the hottest trend of the summer. … Continue reading

Fashion has a tendency of taking itself too seriously. It’s the area of fashion illustration were all the fun is. If you look at sketches from top designers like Karl Lagerfeld or Giorgio Armani, you can see that extremely detailed gowns got their starts from carefree, flick of the wrist sketches. As creative director of Bobbi … Continue reading
wear: 2014 CFDA Awards Red Carpet
Last night, the Council of Fashion Designers of America, also known as the CFDA, gathered at Lincoln Center in New York City to celebrate the up and coming and established designers and icons in the fashion world at the annual CDFA Awards. The recipient of the Fashion Icon Award, Rihanna, unsurprisingly stole the show in … Continue reading
wear: A New Hemline is Born
Last year, you would hard-pressed to find a red carpet attendee that did not wear a peplum skirt or dress. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know that actress Blake Lively was the unofficial star of the Cannes red carpet, looking breathtaking in designer gowns by Gucci and Chanel. Yet, it was when … Continue reading
wear: Elle Fanning’s Style
It can’t be easy being compared to your sibling, especially when you’re close in age and are in the same profession. Yet somehow, actress Elle Fanning has been able to step out from behind her older sister’s, Dakota, shadow and not only create a name for herself in the acting world, but in the fashion world … Continue reading
wear: 2014 Met Gala Red Carpet
Last night, hundreds of famous fashion icons descended upon the red carpeted steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art to celebrate its newest exhibit featuring American couture designer Charles James at the annual Costume Institute Gala. James is known for voluminous gowns, but expect for a few Zac Posen and Marchesa gowns, not many celebrities paid obvious … Continue reading
wear: 2014 White House Correspondents’ Dinner
Last night, the annual White House Correspondents’ Dinner was held and it was the hottest ticket in town that night. I have the pleasure of actually living in DC and I got to a slew of celebrities walking towards the Washington Hilton for the 1ooth anniversary of the dinner that celebrates journalists and allows politicians … Continue reading
wear: Suki Waterhouse’s Style
One of my favorite models that I would love to see more of is Suki Waterhouse. For some, Waterhouse’s claim to fame is dating actor Bradley Cooper, but she was an up-and-coming model before becoming Cooper’s award show plus one. The face of Burberry Brit perfume and one of Cara Delevinge’s best friends, she has an … Continue reading
wear: Fashion from the 2014 MTV Movie Awards
Last night, the 2014 MTV Movie Awards aired and it was by pure chance that I came across this award show. I had no expectations for this “special presentation”, but with most MTV award shows, I had some expectations for the red carpet and good fashion was hard to come by, yet I managed to … Continue reading
wear: Kat Graham’s Style
It’s easy to fawn over people who dress classically, who never veer away from the expected norm; I do it all the time on this blog. But every now and then, it doesn’t hurt to praise those who are not afraid to take fashion risks ( and successfully pull them off) and actress/singer Kat Graham is one … Continue reading
wear: Kiernan Shipka’s Style
“It’s perfectly normal,” I keep telling myself. “Everyone else feels the same way you do.” “It’s completely acceptable to be jealous of 14 year old actress’ wardrobe”. As one of the stars of “Mad Men”, Kiernan Shipka has quietly been becoming a fashionista away from her hit show’s already iconic sartorial looks. Shipka (or her … Continue reading
wear: 2014 Academy Award Fashion
Last night, the end of the 2013-2014 award season came to an end. The 86th annual Academy Awards aired last night and if you had been paying attention at all this award season, the usual suspects were awarded a golden statute. The only thing that wasn’t predictable was the red carpet. It had been raining … Continue reading
wear: Taylor Swift’s Style
I have never met anyone who hasn’t looked back at an old photograph of themselves and cringed a little bit about past fashion choices. I’m sure the same goes for country pop superstar Taylor Swift. Remember the days when she had ringlets and was often seen wearing vintage florals that aged her and prom dresses … Continue reading
