Look We Love: Architecture

Who doesn't salivate over exquisite architecture?  Mixed with tailored fashion cuts, this is a trend we can't get enough of.

Clover Canyon took elegant inspiration from the Russian ballet for their fall collection.



Tibi's latest looks take a graphic cue from Manhattan's skyline and subway system.

 

Cynthia Vincent's silk trousers are perfect for yachting in St. Tropez, with their sense of glitzy baroque excess.

 

We love that you can achieve so many different looks with this trend, depending on the shape of your garment or the style of architecture you favor.

Summer '13 Obsessions

LISTENING

Between its catchy dance beats and collaborations with legends like Pharrell Williams and Animal Collective's Panda Bear, Daft Punk's new album Random Access Memories is THE must-have album of summer '13.

 

 

READING

If you have yet to discover David Sedaris, you may not want to read his short stories in public.  Why?  Because you will be laughing out loud, like, until your sides hurt and you snort.

 

 

WATCHING

Dexter's 8th and final season is the most highly anticipated show of the summer.  Hopefully it won't disappoint.

 

WEARING

Jennifer's favorite look of the season is the "midi" top.  It's just cropped enough to show a sliver of abdomen and looks so fresh with a full skirt or high-waisted jean. 

 



 

Melissa's favorite trend of the season takes inspiration from Palm Springs in the '60s.  Banana leaf prints are popping up everywhere from comtemporary womenswear to interior design.

What are your latest obsessions?

 

Have a beautiful and sunny day.
