Welcome to the lives of the rich and fabulous.
Photos From Cartier International Polo Day 2009

Welcome to the lives of the rich and fabulous. What better way to spend a Summer Sunday than in honor of Cartier, witnessing polo and sipping champagne. Count, me, in. Unfortunately, yours truly had a previous engagement (in my dreams), but here's proof that Cartier throws one helluva polo day. A witty mix of fashion folk, Matthew Williamson, here with chic friends, Polly Delevigne, and actress Anna Friel, mingled with Spanish actress Elsa Pataky, Neve Campbell, and funkster Jay Kay. Polo babes . . .

Celebrities and Models Attend the Annual Serpentine Gallery Summer Party

If I could attend one Summer soiree it would be the fabulous Serpentine Gallery's Summer party. It's not the biggest or the most star-studded, but it's a pretty cool spread and diverse, stylish crowd. Where else do Dasha Zhukova and Jamiroquoi's Jay Kay mingle? It looked like a lovely day in Kensington Gardens, and oh look — here's best fashion buds Thandie and Matthew Williamson. Curious to see inside the Serpentine? Step right up.

Cruise '10 Trend: Clean, Lean Trousers

With Cruise '10 in full effect, let's stop and evaluate the latest.
2010 Cruise Trend: Trousers

With Cruise '10 in full effect, let's stop and evaluate the latest. Frocks and skirts dominated, but what really caught my eye were clean, lean trousers — quite the opposite of crazy harem pants. Instead, trousers ranged from cropped and loose-fitting to tight and body-con. All polished, all pretty. Each style had its own appeal; I can see myself rockin' these silky Roksanda Ilincic trousers to a rooftop party and these Rebecca Taylor pants for a lazy bike ride. Want to see the cream of the crop?

Matthew Williamson Resort 2010

The thing Matthew Williamson has going for him when it comes to resort is that his signature aesthetic is vaguely "tropical island" in the first place.

The thing Matthew Williamson has going for him when it comes to resort is that his signature aesthetic is vaguely "tropical island" in the first place. For Resort 2010 he sent out a combination of candy colors and bright, electric prints. Some pieces were subtly beaded while others had dramatic embroidery. Considering that Williamson's price point is on the high end of designer, we much prefer his softer, more subdued expressions. Two of our favorites, above.
