Dexie Wharton — Mon, 25 Feb 2008 18:50:30 +0000

It’s Moccasin and Sandals for Prada’s Spring Footwear. From patents, suede, deerskin, and calfskin, Prada has them. Maybe a pair of striped sneakers and glazed boots here and there as well.

You can find the entire Prada Spring Collection at Neiman Marcus.

Caps ala Brad Pitt

More inquires came my way regarding an item I featured here at She Knows Best. This time though, it didn’t have anything to do with our usual suspect, aka David Beckham . This time around, it’s the “newsboy” grey tweed cap that Brad Pitt wore while strolling Central Park in NYC with daughter Zahara. You’d be happy to know that he wore the same cap at Deauville Film Festival promoting his new movie: “The Assassination Of Jesse James“. So per some of our reader’s request I went virtual shopping for newsboy caps. Here are what I found :

Brown/Gray Tweed Flat Cap with brown leather brim from Dolce & Gabbana. The logo design is embossed in the back.

More Caps after the fold……

Lana Operata Hat from Prada. Pick from either black or gray.

Burberry Corduroy Cap. Burberry logo is embroidered at center back. Either pick a brown or black color.

I like the leather brim on the D&G brown/grey tweed cap.

Damn Those HOT Sunglasses

Dexie Wharton — Thu, 12 Jul 2007 13:29:50 +0000

Some would argue that it’s sexy to stare at a Man’s eyes. It’s the way to his soul, blah blah blah. I do agree but there is just something so sexy when a Man is wearing sunglasses. A woman would think “mystery” hiding behind those frames waiting to be discovered. It makes a woman want to get to know the guy more and if she has a wild imagination, will take those glasses off slowly and errrrr ………….. nevermind ……………..

If there are 5 Spice Girls there are 4 kinds of sunglasses : Sporty, Classic, Casual and Dressy. Each of them should always compliment your look and emphasize your best features.

SPORT : The hue of the lens and composition must incline with your activity. You want to be able to see those golf balls, right? A gray tint will cut the brightness without necessarily changing the colors. Prada Linea Rossa, $190, From Sunglasshut.com

CLASSIC: Find a pair that would fit your facial structure. Frames(even oversized) should rest on your nose and temples. Find ones that would balance your jaw and forehead. A good example would be this Aviator from Just Cavalli, $120 form Neiman Marcus.

CASUAL : Anything that would compliment both your skin and clothing is the way to go. Blue-hued pairs would go nicely with jeans while tortoiseshell frames with amber lens matches earth-tone colors. Something like Tom Ford’s Buckley. $330 from Nordstrom.

DRESS : Make it refined by showing some skin in subtle settings. Small lenses gives a formal touch. Oval-shaped faces need downsized pair while rounder faces must opt for contrasting frames with clean lines and sharp corners. A Pilot pair from Hugo Boss is a great example. $120 from SAKS.
