Exotic Regrets

8842871275?profile=originalThat's So New York - The Japanese jewelry designer Aoi Kotsuhiroi notorious for his hauntingly evocative jewelry and conceptual artistic pieces unveiled the first chapter of his new collection, Exotic Regrets on 7th February. He says, “Exotic Regrets is a dance of the female muscles, tensed up as an ultimate stake. In the enclosure of the secret, ritual bodies and codes split the instant. Parallel heels are instruments of nudity as a trap in tension. The rest remains to be done, other rituals in

Neutral In A Sea of Color

8842871258?profile=originalThat's So New York - This Spring 2011 season proves to be colorful and exciting. We are seeing a rainbow of bright colors from almost every designer and after the drab winter season, how can anyone not be excited. While it all looks fresh and pretty on the runways, our screens and in the pages of magazines, the practical side of me asks:  Who is going to really be able to wear all this color well? Aside from a select group of very fashionable and sophisticated women, it may present a challenge.

STAERK Spring/Summer 2011

8842870852?profile=originalThat's So New YorkThe style for Andrèe Putman, brand Staerk's illustrator and designer is definitely distinctive and characteristic element. In her latest collection we see the perfect fusion and interpenetration between the two antithetical and opposite colors: white and black, that are fused together to create magnetic dissonance, graphics, innovative combinations, textures from the subtle light, and zig zag drawings. A collection based on contrasts that are balanced perfectly outlining b

My 2011 Trend Predictions

jw1.jpeg
It's always fun to do a little prediction of the future, right? Here are some trends I see sticking around or showing up in 2011:

- Socks with heels. I know this trend was hot and cold for many people. Some loved it, some hated it. I was on the fence for awhile but grew to realize that it's comfortable so stop being against it! However, if Jason Wu's collection is any indicator... it seems this trend is going to stick around in 2011. Perhaps people will grow to love it!

Did Emma Stone fit her Blackberry into this clutch?

by: Kirsten Lea
It has been a week since the Golden Globes and I can’t help but wonder whether there are any wardrobe regrets amongst Sunday’s winners. In my experience, every awards show serves as a lesson in fashion.

I often find the most challenging stage of choosing a special outfit, is deciding upon a purse.

I love purses and clutch bags. Yet often the prettiest clutch, the one that matches a gown perfectly, is not the one that will hold all o

BEST OF MILAN Fashion Week part.1

best-of-mfw-part-1.jpg

It's (almost) all about SUIT so far at MILAN Fashion Week (MFW)! I won't have time to review each show, so the best solution is, i pick up the most favourite looks from each show (which is most of them) and share it with you.

  1. D&G : The most looks so far (85 looks, beat that MFW!). What i like from this collection is the sharp & classic blazer with modern twist for the trousers.
  2. Salvatore Ferragamo: Honestly, the sweater is the only my favorite look from this collection. It's camel, not so chungky,
