Rocker Inspired Fur Vests

Posted on 01 October 2009 by Angelique

fur_vest

Fur vests are a functional and fun accessory for fall. A fur vest, real or faux, can add a layer of luxurious warmth. This has been one of my ‘uniforms’ for cool weather dressing, and this year I’ll be pairing my faux fur vest with black skinny jeans and my black cashmere Stella McCartney sweaters. There are many shades and styles of fur vest, many inspired by the glam rocker trend. Some are long and can be belted. Others are shorter and zip or buckle up the front. Look for embellished and beaded fur vests as well.

From 3.1 Phillip Lim, this black dyed lamb fur vest (top left, $1,500.00 at NeimanMarcus.com) is a gorgeous splurge. Made in Italy the v-neck vest is embellished with rhinestones and takes this whole fur vest trend to a new level of luxe wintertime style. The asymmetric and artfully crafted knitted lamb fur vest from Karl Donoghue (top right, $1275 at Intermix.com) is knit with individual fluffy curls of lamb fur. The wide folded collar can be left open or folded up and buttoned to keep you warm and cozy during the chilliest of days. Gryphon’s “Rocker Vest” (lower right, $725.00 at Shopbop.com) is made of faux fur, has an open front and is cut to fall above the waist. Accentuated at the neckline with metal beads, this vest makes a nice contrast to an all black outfit or simple black t-shirt. Inside this vest you’ll find striped lining. Reasonably priced at $198, French Connection’s “Fast Big Foot” Faux Fur Vest, from Bloomingales.com gets you the most faux fur for your dollar. Long with an open placket this lined vest looks great worn open or belted. Pair with a simple tee, dark sweater or black leggings and platform booties.

Fall Trends: Tradition Mixed with Modern

Posted on 24 September 2009 by Angelique

This fall’s trends include some of the most traditional shapes, like the classic shirtdress and the boyfriend blazer with new concepts like open toe booties. Here’s a rundown.

evera2009212894_p1_v1_m56577569831782290_347x683

Shirtdresses

This fall’s shirtdress is a slightly Diane von Furstenberg-inspired wrap style, like this Sousse Shirtdress by Ever. It has a notched collar and hidden snap closure. There is pleating at the front, back, and cuffs. The cuffs of the 3/4 length sleeves have a three button closure. Made of 100% silk crepe, this dress is $308.00

Boyfriend blazers

The dependable boyfriend blazer, like this open front one from Necessary Objects, is done in a chrome gray lightweight polyester blend gabardine. The long sleeves can be worn rolled, and the generous “boyfriend” fit with?Ǭ† center vent on the back and striped sateen lining keeps the look from getting boring. It’s on sale for $68.00

Open toe booties

With a more traditional look up top, perhaps it’s time to add something new in the way of footwear. Appearing as a hybrid between a sandal and a boot, these Velvet Angels Women’s Zinc Open Toe Booties are new, playful, and flirty, with zip closures. With a platform and high heel, this is something that will make other fashion forward types envious. Made with a leather upper and sole, the heel measures approximately 5 inches on a 1.5 inch platform. $324.95

I just got back from New York and feel overwhelmed with all the styles, window displays, street fashion and just fabulous old shopping:)

I promised myself I would go around Spring Street and Prince Street, and have a little peek around Soho and the Lower East Side, but all my time was consumed with the company of friends, dining, dancing and conversations in a Park Avenue apartment terrace overlooking the city!

What I did remember to do though is that I promised you girls to get another Alexa Chung look, but I thought why not give it a different twist? So no pics of Alexa today instead let?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s get a Chung inspired look!

It is easy to get and sexy to wear, my favourite garment of this fall the H&M sequince leggings, you can?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢t go wrong with them, this is the key for any look and then you can add a loose top in any colour you choose, or a cute dress, or even a buttoned up boyfriend shirt! Check out the ones I have selected from Urban Outfitters as well as their new Silence & Noise blazers,( by the way Silence & Noise is my new favourite brand at the moment, so you know what to expect from my next post!)

Going back to the look of today, check out these fantastic and colourful H&M party heels from their Party collection, or the Deena & Ozzy suede zip boot, both to accessories the leggings for a different look, your pick casual or party!
And last but surely not least the bag, here is a selection from H&M and Urban Outfitters where Deux Lux offers you a wide variety of their line, a little treat for us girls is these 4 sweet lipbalms that come in a delicious packaging of?Ǭ† Godiva lookalike box:)
