sketching style

Whitney Port is one of my favorite people. Her style is so courageous. This was an image I couldn't help but sketch out yesterday.

summer style

The Coachella music festival in Palm Springs seems to be the fashion week of the summer and I follow it religiously. The lineup this year is amazing so it's sure to bring out an eclectic and well-dressed crowd.

Here are some of my favorites from years passed - outfits that I'll try to emulate as I get my summer clothes together.

blog of the week | NYFW

New York fashion week happens twice a year, and it seems like for those two weeks all I am doing is looping through a list of my favorite blogs to find their coverage. This week, instead of just suggesting one blog - I'm sending you to the places I have been clicking around to see what has been happening in the streets and down the runway.

{Cupcakes and Cashmere} was interviewed for the Wall Street Journal about fashion week (she links to it on her most recent post) and has had a backstage pass to see the makeup and hair trends thanks to her recent partnership with Estee Lauder.


{The Glamourai} got a backstage look at Joseph Altuzarra, and has been documenting the incredible outfits she has worn while watching the shows. The first outfit (the black cat sweater) ended up on numerous other blogs reporting on fashion week, so I'm thinking maybe she should be in NYFW instead of the just covering it.

I was so excited when I found out that Whitney Eve was showing at Lincoln Center, that I went home immediately and started looking up ways to get tickets to the show and how much a flight & hotel room would cost. Unfortunately, everything was way out of my budget. Thankfully, {Whitney Port} gave a full recap on her site. I'm always intrigued about the outfits she puts together for herself, let alone what she comes up with when she makes a collection.
