Fashion First
Zara launched its Woman’s February lookbook featuring minimalistic looks at its best. Love the simple silhouettes of the cropped tops, flared mini skirts, shift dresses, high-waisted shorts and wide leg trousers. Simply amazing, as usual. Want every piece!

This year, David Yurman is celebrating its 30th Anniversary of the signature Renaissance Cable Bracelet, which revolutionized the American jewelry industry and will release special limited-edition designs, ranging from colorful aluminum Renaissance bracelets to full pavé pieces in white, black and cognac diamonds—the crown jewels of the design celebration.
These new pieces highlight David’s hallmark of bold, sculptural design, while reflecting a modern blend of ancient and contemporary sensibilities. To create the aluminum bracelets, Evan Yurman looks at the original Renaissance bracelet from a new perspective. As architect Philippe Starck did with his translucent Louis XVI Ghost Chair, Evan has reinvented a classic design by giving an abstract wink to the traditional form. Made of anodized aluminum, the bracelets capture the essence of the Renaissance Bracelet in a brilliant array of pop colors. To create the full pavé bracelet, David and Evan, challenged their master gem setter to cover every millimeter of the surface with pavé diamonds, meticulously hand- plotting and setting over 28 carats to create a high jewelry masterpiece.
These bracelets are definitely a work of art, so amazing. I absolutely love it, the aluminum Renaissance bracelets would look amazing worn alone or stacked! And one word for the pavé bracelet, magnificent! And if you’re still looking for a luxury gift for your loved one for Valentine’s Day, this may be a good choice!

Legendary shoe designer Manolo Blahnik showed his Fall/Winter 2014 collection for the first time during New York Fashion Week on Sunday, February 9th. The presentation featured new styles and a quartet of short films directed by Mr. Michael Roberts. The vignette guided viewers on a journey from Manolo’s childhood through his creative process and served as the new collection’s narrative.

It’s T-minus eight days until the Isabel Marant collection hits select H&M stores worldwide, and the retailer has just launched a dedicated microsite in anticipation. It features plenty of photos of the line, a countdown clock and video—all arranged in a Tumblr-like format.
According to the site, the H&M locations carrying the collection will open at 8am local time on November 14 and the online shop will begin offering the collab at 12pm EST. In the “how to shop” section, H&M explains that they will again be utilizing a wristband system to organize shoppers day-of. The first 420 people in line will be broken down into groups of thirty and each will receive a colored wristband that corresponds to their group. Each group will have 15 minutes to shop the collaboration, and there will be five minute breaks between groups while staff, presumable, straightens out and restocks. After three and a half hours, the collaboration will be opened up to everyone.
H&M will be enforcing a purchase limit to try to curb resellers. Each shopper can purchase four of a style in store and one item per style on online purchases only. Returns will be accepted for seven days after the collection’s release; after that, shoppers will be issued store credit. Happy Shopping!!
PUMA is stepping their game up ladies and gents and these limited edition Luxe Sky Wedge are just the start!
Puma has partnered with New York City sneaker shop Rime to release these kicks and I must say that they are sick! Designed in collaboration with the owner of Rime, Susan Boyle, the PUMA x Rime Luxe Sky Wedge is inspired by the idea of true classic women’s luxury, with PUMA’s sporty styling. I already own a few of Puma’s Sneaker Wedges and they are the most comfortable pair I own overall. So if you ladies out there don’t have a pair yet, this might be a good one to start with. 😉
The sneaker wedge features an upper constructed of gold foiled leather, two lace options of subtle sparkle and chevron, and golden PUMA lace locks. The double gold straps allow for versatile styling, while the chevron detailed lining gives this shoe a polished edge. Available in limited quantities December 7th at Rime in NYC and other select retailers including Nordstrom, Nice Kicks, Sportie LA, and Epitome. You can pre-order your pair from December 2-6 exclusively at Rime. The PUMA x Rime Luxe Sky Wedge retails for $130.
LOVE!!
If you love the Stella McCartney plaid coat and sweater but don’t want to break the bank, look no further, Zara has a very similar alternative that is affordable. Love the lookbook as always ! Very chic and always with on point styling 😉
