Nancy Gonzalez Loves a Challenge
Not too long ago, Saks invited me to meet handbag designer Nancy Gonzalez. For those not familiar, Nancy has been delivering decadent — read: exotic — handbags since 1998. Think of a Nancy Gonzalez bag as a classic — up there with Chanel and Bottega Veneta — only spicier.
Celebrity Style: Mary-Kate Olsen
In case you haven't heard, Miss Mary-Kate is a juror for the Tribeca Film Festival. She attended a brunch, along with her co-jurors, but stood out in her sexy hot pink Herve Leger bandage skirt, black leather jacket, and Elizabeth and James mules. Her Nancy Gonzalez croc clutch took the luxe factor up a few notches.
Battle of the Chanel: Kruger vs. Olsen
My Friday was just made more Fab. A handful of gorgeous celebs came out to Chanel's Tribeca Film Festival event last night, but these two took the biggest risks and therefore tickled my fashion fancy. Diane kept things elegant but slightly exotic in gray-silk harem pants, a black turtleneck, and a cross-body embellished Chanel purse.
Trend Alert: Where the Wild Bags Are
It's August. Shed your style and go wild. It's time to wear all your flesh flattering clothes — it's now or never!
Celebrity Style: Amber Valetta
I always look forward to seeing veteran models on the red carpet, especially when they have enviably effortless style. Amber Valetta attended Fashion For Life 2008 in a strapless metallic bronze dress, accessorized with a gold box clutch, strappy sandals, and bangles. It's an unfussy and elegant look that can easily be imitated even in a different color palette.
Fab Gift Guide: Big Boss
When gifting the Big Boss — you know, the one you only get to talk to when something very good or very bad happens — tread lightly. Of course, you're going to earn brownie points by thinking of them during the holidays, but those can be lost just as easily if you pick the wrong thing. Sticking to a gift that is consummately professional is definitely the way to go.
Celebrity Style: Carrie Underwood
Carrie Underwood showed up to Condé Nast's first annual Movies Rock event in a breathtaking Naeem Khan red V-front gown. I must say, she's the most stunning lady in red I've seen in a while. What makes this number stand out is the gold studded waist and draped sleeves.
Celebrity Style: Mandy Moore
Mandy Moore is looking pretty low key on her way to breakfast with pals. What I like about this ensemble is that it's slightly disheveled but still cute and flirty. The crocodile bag and leopard flats spice up the look, as do her cool aviators.
Trend Alert: What a Croc
Ashley Olsen has been toting around her Fendi crocodile bag for months now — it's obviously a fave. But really, it perfectly suits her fierce and luxe style. While I know not everyone will perk up at the idea of wearing a crocodile skin on their arm, it is a proven luxury item in today's world of fashion.
Trend Alert: Crocodile Rock
I've found the chic pebbled skin of the crocodile to be controversial. A lux material indeed, would you fancy wearing an aquatic reptile on your arm? You know I've got a thing for python, so I'm thinking I could do the crocodile rock.
