Another One?

Designer Collaborations have been all over the place lately from the Go International Collections at Target to Vera Wang at Kohl's to Karl Lagerfeld at H&M....I for one am starting to despise the term "designer collaboration". When I heard Stella McCartney was doing a collection for LeSportsac I rolled my eyes...I mean come on Stella! You already have a line of activewear with Adidas and have done a collabo with H&M!! Let's try to not oversaturate the market! But then I laid eyes on this beauty and I take it all back. The mix of textures and the neutral colorblocking detail are fabulously on-trend without being too trendy.

Spring Things

As far as shopping goes...February sucks. All the stores are starting to put out spring merchandise and here in NYC there is still snow on the ground and a major chill in the air. I recently spotted these carved wedges by Stella McCartney and instantly fell in love. The 60's vibe of the wood sole and denim detail is too cute for words and would go perfect with the shift dresses that we'll be wearing in a few months! But for some reason these are priced at $1,195! No, I am not joking...$1,195 for something that is essentially all manmade materials! But the good part of seeing spring merchandise early in the season is knowing what will be hot...what will be sooo hot that companies like Steve Madden (aka the Copycat King) can't help but to make a more wallet-friendly version. We will be on the lookout. But if you're on your way to St. Tropez and can't wait, Neiman Marcus has you covered..
