The Iconic Chanel Tweed Jacket

The One and Only

A Chanel tweed jacket is ageless and never goes out of style. Although, I don’t have the pleasure of owning one myself, when I do, they will become passed down from generation to generation.

This story printed in ELLE magazine shows us how we can wear this iconic piece with just about anything and look like a million bucks. Photographed by Thomas Whiteside, the models Ella Verberne, Josilyn Williams, Veranika Antsipava and Vika Kuropyatnikova were styled by Lester Garcia in looks ranging from sporty to ladylike to avant-garde. LOVE IT!

Fashion’s Night Out Sets Dates For 2012

Organizers for Fashion’s Night Out have set the dates for the fourth annual edition of the global shopping party.

All 19 territories that have their own version of Vogue will observe Fashion’s Night Out this year, meaning there will be events in 19 countries spanning three weeks. Below, a breakdown of which nations will join the party, and when:

Sept. 6: Great Britain, the United States, France, Italy, Germany, Spain, Russia, Mexico, Australia, and Korea
Sept. 7: China, India, Germany, and Russia
Sept. 8: Taiwan and Japan
Sept. 10 and 12: Brazil
Sept. 13: Portugal, Italy, Turkey, The Netherlands, and Mexico
Sept. 18: Italy
Sept. 20 and 25: Greece

In past years, Fashion’s Night Out in the US has been celebrated in more than one city at a time, and this year some other countries will follow suit. Italy, Germany, Russia, Mexico, Brazil, and Greece will all host parties in two or three style-obsessed cities — meaning there will be that many more opportunities to see fashion editors and industry folk doing things like this.

Christian Louboutin Steps Into Beauty

Christian Louboutin‘s first major brand expansion is a luxury beauty line set for worldwide release in late 2013.

The new venture, Christian Louboutin Beauté, is still in its infancy, and Louboutin has been reticent about which product categories he plans to explore. He will work with New York-based beauty licensee Batallure to bring the collection of products — billed as a high-end, global brand — to market. In the past, Batallure has produced fragrances for Abercrombie & Fitch and Express, among other clients.

Louboutin told WWD that his beauty assortment “has to mirror the quality of the shoes” he’s been making for the past 20 years.

“Beauty products also have to do with empowering women,” he said. “That’s very much the job of the shoes I’m designing.”

Can’t wait to see all the products 😉

Photographer: Kacper Kasprzyk

Here’s a look at the women’s lookbook! How amazing does it look? I always love everything BUT I have to admit I feel a little weird that we haven’t even enjoyed summer yet and I am already thirsty for Fall! Iwant everything! For fall, H&M is all about “minimal meets maximal” featuring sculptural silhouettes and bold shapes. Lots of textures and packing on all the costume jewelry to help maximize minimal outfits.

“I love how there are so many options this fall, and ways to show the different shapes of your personality. The sleek and minimal pieces feel fresh and modern, and look so great when worn with the new textures, shapes and decorative touches that maximalism brings,” says Ann-Sofie Johansson, H&M’s Head of design.

I am soooo lusting over the burgundy varsity!! A def must-have in my Fall wardrobe. 😉
