4 Bebe Geometric Button Down Top: Love It or Hate It?
Derek Lam's Spring 2012 collection channeled midcentury luxury, and as FabSugar noted about the Derek Lam show, "Think Palm Springs, Frank Sinatra, and Angie Dickinson by the pool, and you have the inspiration for Lam's upbeat collection that still carried his signature clean lines and classic silhouettes." One of my favorites from the collection was this '60s geometric print dress, whose look Read more
Must . . . fight . . . post-holiday depression. I tend to grab cozies and neutrals after a month of decadent nibbles, sequins, and party gear. But Jennifer Lopez is a believer in the healing power of bolder than bold geo dresses. Though the holidays are over, party time isn't — I already have some cool parties lined up in January, and awards season is upon us. And nothing perks the party up Read more

One of my newest favorite designers is proving to be a fave amongst the glitterati as well. This Giambattista Valli bold geometric strapless dress is just so awesome; I envy both of these ladies. While I prefer SJP with her hair down - her face is just so long - I prefer SJP's minimal look and swirly black shoes. Jessica looks a bit disheveled when she wore this to the designer's Fall show back Read more
As much as my mom will tell you I was a good student at math, I hated Geometry. I don't know what it was but I struggled with angular equations; I think it's a left-brain right-brain thing. I did enjoy Algebra though...Enough about my brain, point is: I'd rather wear Geometry than learn it! These striking prints have a decidedly 60s feel to them, but are plenty modern with updated styling. Give Read more

The Lulu DK Read more
Fall may seem like a far-off cry from the season in bloom, but we couldn't help but take a peek (and lust over) Nicole Richie's latest Winter Kate and House of Harlow autumnal wares. With Richie's signature brand of bohemian-luxe style ever present, we were delighted to note an edgier (read: rich jewel tones, plush velvet textures, and slick lasercut details) vibe in place. The collection is Read more
Winter may be a distant memory for us now, but remind yourself that it is, in fact, coming again with the geek-approved Direwolf Game of Thrones letterpress poster ($35).

It's a beautiful piece, one that you Read more
