Insane for Isabel

Thumbnail image for Insane for Isabel May 13, 2013

You know who I’m talking about. Isabel Marant—boho chic designer, extraordinaire. Ever since I laid eyes on those fringe boots of fall 2011, I’ve been lusting her collections. Although it may not seem immediately obvious, my favorite fashion eras are the 60s and 70s, and as such, Mademoiselle Marant’s classy-bohemian-with-an-edge looks are the stuff my fashion fantasies are [...]

You know what’s great about having two hemispheres with opposite seasons? There’s the potential to escape your current weather reality, yes. There is also the ability to witness summer style unfolding ahead of our own season—a sneak preview, if you will. While we’re shivering in the north, our blogging sisters in the southern hemisphere are reveling in [...]

We may be between seasons and shows here in the northern hemisphere, but in Australia, the spring/summer 2013-2014 shows are kicking off this week at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in Australia. They’re currently in fall 2013; the summer collections drop around August. Confused? Just remember that whatever season it is in the northern hemisphere, they’re in [...]

WVW: New Classic*

I’ve been hearing for years that white jeans are the new denim staple. And for those same years, I’ve been incredulous. How could white be better than black? Uh, white across this ___? It’s not that I don’t like white. I actually really love it. But it is ridiculously hard to keep clean, it can be too [...]

As much as I’ve posted about fitness here on G&G, you know it’s an important part of my life. As such, activewear also plays a pretty important role; I’m either dressed to the nines and in five-inch heels, or in lycra/spandex and my trainers. When I’m lifting weights at the gym, I’m very specific about [...]

Funny how sometimes the mirror shows you one thing, and your camera another. I wore this ensemble to brunch recently (and in my last post), and felt quite comfortable in it. Then I took some photos… *WVW: What V Wore Everly dress • Tory Burch necklace (similar), Bauble Bar Double Gold Collar necklace Burberry boots [...]

EEEEEEE! It’s that time again. Paris Fashion Week, fall shows…my favorite! I can never get enough of leather, fur, and boots. If my hubby suggests a move to FLORIDA one more time, I’ll scream. No, no, and no! My wardrobe simply cannot take hot and hotter all year round. But I digress. The show will [...]

More (faux) leather for the office. And in RED. Uh, I think I just broke my own rule. About rules for office wear…the only one I stick to without fail is to wear one unexpected piece, one piece that whispers nonconformist. Like a leather shirt, a spiked bracelet, or an OTK boot with a classic silhouette. It’s [...]
