Fashion Blogs

I think for me the funnest thing about writing a daily blog is actually finding newlabels to chit chat about. So when this gorgeous chic Lafayette 148 New Yorkcotton blouse jumped off the racks and into my cart I knew it wasspecial. This label I don’t see daily, weekly or even monthly inside athrift store. The brand was established in 1996 and named for itsManhattan street address. Chic and modern designs in the most luxuriousfabrics define the label. Edward Wilkerson is the creative directorfor the brand, Edward graduated from high school of Art and Design inManhattan and won acceptance into Parsons School of Design. By 1984 hewas a designer for Anne Klein, where he assisted Donna Karen and Louisdel O’lio. In 1998 he joined Lafayette 148 New York as designdirector. Inspired by his frequent world travels and the women hemeets, Edwards has a unique vision and sense of style that translatesinto elegant, yet supremely wearable fashion. This label can be foundat Saks Fifth Avenue & Neiman Marcus. So when it came time for meto suit this lovely top with a gorgeous bottom it wasn’t all thatdifficult when these Trina Turk black wool slacks turned up. These Trina Turkblack super light weigh wool slacks, with purple trim around waist, arevery sophisticated. This ensemble looks like you would have spent somemajor bucks but lets just keep this our dirty little secret….. Nothingwrong with a little dirt….
