Met Gala Fashion: The Punkest

We’ve discussed the not so punk and the almost punk from last night’s Met Gala…but what about the punkest of them all? These ladies BROUGHT IT. Not saying they all should have (I’m talking to you, Madonna) but I appreciate the effort.

For the last and final Met Gala post of 2013…

I am very excited to share with you all of the great things happening on Gilt this week! It’s not just your ordinary flash sale website anymore. Along with amazing new sales daily, they have new features each week with various style tips, exclusive videos and more!

As part of the 360 Sweater sale, also starting today at 12/11c, expert stylist Lindsey Calla showcases a video featuring her favorite items + style tips from the sale. The video will be available on Gilt’s Facebook page.

Check out my favorite sales happening on Gilt this week…

  • Tracy Resse (2/3)–The looks here fall into two categories: fluid and draped or slim and body-sculpting. In either case, the feel is one of modern elegance. The appliquéd silk and studded twill pieces are stand out finds and will be sure to land you on the best dressed list at your next event.
  • Dolce & Gabbana (2/4)-Curve-hugging fits, corset-style dresses and fierce animal prints. Explore your closet’s wild side with tie-dye floor length gowns, ruched mini dresses and netted pieces. Glam yet ladylike separates and shoes, this sale cannot be missed on Gilt this week!
  • Denim Shop (2/5)–Whatever your denim preference is, Gilt has you covered. Skinny jeans, high-waisted flares, tapered jodhpurs, baggy boyfriends, and everything in between—no matter what style is on your wish list this season, you’ll be sure to find something you love.

SPECIAL FEATURE: GILT CITY CHICAGO

This was too great of an offer for me to keep all to myself! If you’re looking for something different, spectacular and romantic to do for Valentine’s Day, look no further! Starting today, Gilt members can purchase a demo with Charlie Trotter at his famous restaurant for February 14th. Hors d’oeuvres, champagne, and 4-course dinner and wine included…all for $250!

Celebs Gone Designer (Part 2)

I hope you read my original Celebs Gone Designer post…because this is a continuation of celebrity-designed collections that are actually worth checking out. Don’t you just feel like anyone who’s been on TMZ a few times all of the sudden thinks they can design clothes? Designers must be talented…and I want to share only the best with you!

I am not one for reality stars…but I absolutely love Whitney Port. She genuinely seems like a good person and that’s hard to find in the Hollywood scene these days. I love her style…I don’t think I have ever seen an outfit of hers I didn’t like (I’m especially obsessed with the one pictured above that she wore for her show at Fashion Week). If you watched the first episode of the new season of The City you see part of the production of her Whitney Eve collection that debuted this February at New York Fashion Week.

Here’s a glimpse of her collection:

House of Harlow 1960

One of the most fashionable people in the Hollywood circuit…Nicole Richie. No one pulls off boho like Nicole…and I love every second of it. She has an amazing jewelry collection, House of Harlow 1960, that is reasonably priced and so fabulous. Inspired by her boho-chic style, House of Harlow 1960 has lots of gold pieces with great colors and shapes. I absolutely love the entire collection. She’s recently introduced shoes to her House of Harlow 1960 collection AND she recently launched her clothing line, Winter Kate (which is just as fabulous!)

Here are some of my favorite House of Harlow 1960 pieces:

Top Row (left to right): 14KT Gold Key Cocktail Ring ($59 at shopthetrendboutique.com), 14kt Yellow Gold Plated Aztec Bangle with Leather ($75 at singer22.com)

Bottom Row (left to right): 14KT Gold-plated Peacock Cuff with Enamel ($190 at shopthetrendboutique.com), 14ct Yellow Gold Plated Feather Necklace ($115 at asos.com)
