If you’ve been looking forward to the day where “free,” “vintage” and “Chanel” can be put in the same sentence (or if you’ve ever wanted to know what a sequin Mickey Mouse looks like in earrings) then today’s your lucky day my friends.
Why do you love fashion? What do you think of trends? How do you define personal style?
Do you think when designers like Alexander McQueen, Karl Lagerfeld and Yves Saint Laurent answered these questions, they’d have such iconic answers? Although my responses of “Burn camo studded sneaker wedges” or “You’ll never find me in a bandage dress” or “We have to wear clothes everyday so why not have fun with it?” will never be as known as these fashion icons, I hope at least one person will remember them (besides my mom or my boyfriend).
Not all fashion trends come in typical fashion form. This trend isn’t like owls or curved heels but more like something that gives us more options to shop those owls or curved heels. E-commerce (better known as online shopping) has been popping up in some unexpected places and it’s safe to say that it’s definitely the new black.
If you ever wanted to get to know jewelry designer Alexis Bittar then today’s your lucky day. This Saturday was the Alexis Bittar trunk show I had mentioned last week and we had a nice little convo where I learned more about his fine jewelry collection, how he balances being CEO and Creative Director of his business (now something Burberry’s Christopher Bailey is juggling) and his favorite thing about Chicago (hint: it’s NOT the weather).
Charlotte Olympia, Kate Spade and Jonathan Adler are just a few of the designers who are having a hoot with the latest animal trend. Care to find out what it is? (I think I’ve made it pretty obvious by now…)
