Stella McCartney showed off her flamenco inspired Spring / Summer 2010 line today in Paris to a star studded audience. Of course, her Beatles’ father, Paul, was there, along with a long time fan Gwyneth Paltrow.
McCartney’s styles are usually very muted and classic; however, this collection deviated slightly from her usual. She kept her sleek lines in mind, but added some tropical flair. Check out some of those massive South American ruffles, amazing colors and high waisted shorts.
I don’t know if I should love these looks because I live so close to the Mexican border or should be embarrassed because …read more

Technically, fall doesn’t begin until September 22nd, but fall styles are already here. Despite the chart-topping temps in my neck of the woods, I am stocking up on low-heeled boots, black tulip skirts, and structured shouldered jackets. This season’s dresses seem to be coming in two lengths, an ultra goth skirt to the floor, and a super 90’s skinny mini. I love the way the stretch fabrics of the 90’s, like net, mesh, and lace, are being revitalized, and I especially like them with an extra dose of pre-90’s retro, like this Stella McCartney dress.
This dress is so hot, I’m …read more

I know that for those of you in the heart of summer heatspells, it seems unlikely that fall will ever come. But come it will, and with it confusion about how to continue to wear your still new summer frocks without looking foolish. I love this cropped jacket as a great to way to warm up a cocktail dress, and just as a great way to warm up.
The short, open style is small enough to allow the details of a dress to show through, but substantial enough to provide a bit of warmth. I think it would look amazing with …read more
