When I was researching Susana Monaco for this posting I clicked onto Piperlime site which has hired Rachel Zoe as a consultant and if there is one thing I love more than finding Susana Monaco is loving Rachel Zoe even more…. Rachel Zoe had picked several of Susana Monaco’s items on their website as Rachel Zoe’s pick….. So in my opinion if Rachel Zoe loves it then you know it’s good without question. Huge fan of Rachel Zoe and her passion, this woman is brilliant beyond bananas…. At the launch of
I’m a huge fan of the brand Moschino and on that rare occurrence that I actually do find an item inthe thrift store I can’t help but feel happy. Moschinowas created in 1983 by the late Franco Moschino who died in 1994 andRossella Jardini is their creative director and each time I see anyMoschino item it just takes me back to the 80′s. Franco Moschino duringthe 80′s was creating some of the most over the top and most fabulousitems that even today when I look back at his work, think this guy wasso

When the LBD (little black dress) just won’t cut it for you try a new color say for instancegreen…. The first thought that pops into my mind when I see this greensilk Nicole Miller dress is sex kitten…..

Hersilhouettes are artfully draped to achieve a unique body consciousness.Her signature is feminine, sexy a
These Trina Turk slacks make me feel like I’m having a 70′s flashback. I love the bold colors thatTrina Turk used to construct these gorgeous chic slacks . When I firstsaw the label I just smiled because these look exactly like something Trina Turkwould design, she is fearless when it comes to arranging the colorpalette. When it came time to finding a top for these slacks Lady Luckygave me the green light and I scored this white wool with nylon Theory top.This top is extremely modern and classic
I’m not lying when I say this but I literally walked into a thrift store and withinthe first 30 seconds I had these 3.1 Phillip Lim white slacks in thetight grip of my hands. True story….

Supermodels have had a longtime rep for being outrageously tall and stick-thin. Although the skinny silhouettes still dominate the fashion industry, we’ve come a long way since then with the rise of curvier supermodels like Christine Brinkley, Heidi Klum, and Karolina Kurkova (who by the way, remained in high demand despite the fact the Brazilian press claimed she had “too much back fat”). Shows like America’s Next Top Model Plus Size reality series also put the typical

Maria Ogneva, in charge of Client & Community Services for FashionablyMarketing.Me, writes: A few announcements in the past couple of weeks have made me ponder the place that real-time social media plays in fashion events.
