<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> For her <b>Spring/Summer 2013 RTW</b> collection in <b>New York Fashion Week</b> back in September 2012, the legendary <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Diane Von Furstenberg </span></b>teamed up with <b>Google</b> to produce this unique video of her runway show using Google's Glass technology. All of the footage in this video was filmed using Google Glass which is simply a clear eyeglass-apparatus complete with a tiny video camera fixture, which gives us a real first person point of view of what goes on at the production of a high fashion runway show. From Diane to the models, hair and make up artists, to the back and front-of-house production team, this technology captures what each and everyone of these key players of this fashion production see -- the final days of fittings, the runway prep, the press, and the actual walk down the runway -- which showcases a super unique point of view that only a few witness through first hand experience. The video is filmed with tons of DVF's signature words of wisdom and empowerment, like her words of encouragement before the models walked on to the runway saying that, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"<i>The most important thing is that you are yourself and you think of the woman that you want to be</i>.." On top of it all, this video won the Best Online Video of 2013 at the Fashion 2.0 Awards! Congratulations DVF and enjoy! </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Sometimes I feel like an old soul living in this modern world of <i>Twitter</i>, hash tags, and emojis. I believe the term that was used for this nostalgic-denial in the Woody Allen movie, <i>Midnight in Paris</i>, is called "Golden Age Thinking." Which is the "erroneous" yet albeit romantic notion, that a different time period is better than the one one's living in. I would've loved to have lived in Paris in the 1920s or New York City in the 50s and 60. I would've, without hesitation, totally worn proper white gloves everyday like Grace Kelly, walked around the city in my Givenchy and Salvatore Ferragamo confections like Audrey Hepburn, and I would've definitely donned a pillbox hat and tweed Chanel skirt suit like Jackie O. So it should come as no surprise that I'm a huge fan of time period movies and television shows (<i>which explains my undying love for Downton Abbey and Mad Men.) </i>And <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Arianne Phillips</span></b>'s work in the film <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"><i>W./E.</i></span></b> is no exception -- it was phenomenal. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I'm not a fan of Madonna at all, but I thought this movie was fantastic -- but then again you can never go wrong with a <b>Weinstein</b> production. The screen play was crazy good all on top of an amazing cast and fantastic costume design by<b> Arianne Philipps</b>. For those of you who haven't seen the movie (<i>and if you have Netflix, watch this movie right away and then come back to read this blog post ready to discuss</i>) it tells the story of the <b>Duke and Duchess of Windsor</b>, formerly <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">King Edward VIII </span></b>and twice American divorc</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222;">é and socialite </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Wallis Simpson</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222;">. It was the greatest scandal of the time. The newly ascended King of England, Edward, abdicated his throne to be with the woman he loved -- basically, royal family drama and politics that he was forbidden to be with, let a lone marry, Wallis therefore stepping down and giving the throne to the second successor of the line, and his brother, Albert (<i>King George VI, aka present day Queen Elizabeth's father, aka Prince William's great grandfather</i>) So long story short, Edward gave up his throne to be with Wallis and then the rest of the story continued on with the movie, <i>The King's Speech</i>. The film is actually a lot </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;">more romantic and complex than my synopsis (it consists of a second modern day parallel story of a woman living in New York City named Wally Winthrop played by the actress Abbie Cornish) but let's just get to the point, the clothes! </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> First of all, the woman who played <b>Wallis Simpson</b>, the English actress <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Andrea Riseborough</span></b>, did an incredible job playing this daunting role. It's almost too eerie how both women resembled each other so much and how well an English actress captured the demeanor, mannerism, and style of speech of an American woman who lived in the 1920s. But then again I'm sure Arianne Phillips's costume design easily helped her get into character and obviously lots and lots of research was done on her part. All of the ensembles that Riseborough wore in the film was exquisite -- the impeccable tailoring, the accessories such as the jewelry, the brooches, the fascinators, the gloves, and all other small details like the classic red pout and even her nail polish color -- all transformed her into Wallis Simpson in the flesh on screen. What's even more incredible about the costume design aspect of this film is that fashion houses like <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Christian Dior</span></b> and <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Madeleine Vionnet</span></b> recreated actual designs that were made specifically for Wallis Simpson. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">Wallis was actually a patron of the Paris couture house of Madeleine Vionnet in the 1930's. Her original orders are still held in the companies archives and recreations of four of those gowns were made by the fashion house exclusively for this film.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"> And the same goes for the house of Dior. Three dresses that had been previously made for the actual Wallis Simpson was recreated just for this film, which is incredible. Phillips also worked with the famous milliner, Stephen Jones, to create this one of a kind veiled (<i>and horned! -- so appropriate for the scene when she was walking around town as the scandal of her relationship with Edward erupted in the tabloids</i>) fascinator for the film along with jewelers <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Cartier</span></b> and <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Alexis Bettar</span></b>. The story is really good and the clothes are even better (over 60+ costume changes) so if you appreciate a good time period film filled with sumptuously designed period garments (and/or just love getting inspired by the fashion in films) or if you're looking to be transported to this incredible time in history and fashion for a couple of hours, then give this movie a go.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If it's not apparent enough (which is pretty much impossible since I've talked about her in about every other blog post) I adore<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"> Grace Coddington</span></b>. I don't love her just as an editorial stylist and creative director of Vogue. I love her as a person, even though I've technically never met her (but plan to one day, when the first opportunity comes my way.) This love and adoration is completely validated in her memoir, <i><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Grace-Memoir-Coddington/dp/0812993357/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1355788432&sr=1-1&keywords=grace" target="_blank">Grace. Click this to buy it now. Do it!</a> </i>I finished the book within a couple of days because I simply couldn't put it down. From her modeling days to her relationship with the famous Editor in Chief of American<b> Vogue</b>, <b>Anna Wintour</b> and everything in between (<i>from working with Norman Parkinson as a young model in Britain, her days at British Vogue as fashion editor, a lunch incident involving a crazed PETA activist and a frozen raccoon, her cat psychic, and all the personal heartbreaks and triumphs</i>) I felt like within those pages, those illustrations (drawn by Grace herself) the photographs from her childhood, and the display of her selected work from the pages of British and American Vogue, I felt like I got to know her as a close friend just like her actual and long time friends, <b>Karl Lagerfeld</b> and <b>Nicolas Ghesquiere</b>. The release of the memoir prompted a media coverage on Grace who usually despises the spotlight and paparazzi -- from a style feature in the <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/18/fashion/grace-coddington-is-always-in-fashion.html?pagewanted=1&_r=2&ref=style&" target="_blank">New York Times</a>, to the cover and cover story of <a href="http://i-donline.com/magazine/the-wise-up-issue/the-wise-up-issue-its-gorgeous-to-be-graceful/" target="_blank">i-D Magazine's Wise Up Issue</a>, and a <a href="http://www.npr.org/2012/11/20/165557978/a-model-career-grace-goes-from-runway-to-vogue" target="_blank">Fresh-Air session with NPR</a> -- Grace was finally at the center spotlight, where I personally think, she belongs. She even had a <a href="http://www.vogue.com/vogue-daily/article/askgrace-what-to-take-away-from-grace-coddingtons-twitter-takeover/#1" target="_blank">live Twitter chat through Vogue magazine's twitter account</a> and at the end bluntly admitted that she quite enjoyed it despite the fact that computers and technology still frustrates her (<i>she's 71 years old after all!</i>) Read the book over the holiday season and I guarantee that you will love it and laugh out loud like I did (<i>especially during the chapter when she talked about her cats and her cat psychic, Christine.</i>) As for the rest, here's the tail end of her work in the pages of Vogue from the November and December 2012 issues. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The relationship between books and films has always been symbiotic. When done right in every aspect of the production -- <i>from the screenplay, the casting, the costumes, and the set</i> -- some of the greatest movies of all time usually arise from the stories that were derived from books (<i>with the exception of original screenplays, of course</i>.) With holiday films rolling in and the big summer blockbusters looming ahead, I'm more excited than ever by all of the trailers that are being released each day. And I'm not just excited because they're some of my favorite books that I've read when I was growing up and I love nothing more than watching those movies come to life in film, but mainly because of the <b style="font-style: italic;">clothes </b>(<i>obviously</i>.) <b>Period piece movies</b> have always been awe inspiring because the costume design in such productions have a certain intricateness and grandeur to them. I mean, they kind of have to have grandeur because people didn't particularly lounge around in their jeans and t-shirts in those days. Aside from the fantastic dresses, stunning jewelry, and grand headpieces, I've also noticed a common theme in the plot of all of these movies: <b><i>Love</i></b>. <u>I've always believed that the greatest stories of all time are the ones about love</u>. Read these books and watch these movies to see for yourself (or in this case, watch the movie trailers for now) then let's discuss. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The short is <i>pure</i> Disney: it's fun, adorable, and brings to life a very colorful dream and fantasy that the company giant is known for so why the backlash against the "skinny Minnie?" When Minnie hits the runway, Tinkerbell taps the entrance to the runway and out comes a Minnie in a sample size supermodel proportions. This apparently prompted an Internet outrage and online petition among those who thought that turning Minnie into such a skinny model sets a bad example to bad young girls. Uhm . . . <i>what</i>? OKAY. I rarely voice my opinion on this blog about so called 'controversial issues' like this, but I feel very strongly about this opposition so here it goes: </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> First of all, Minnie Mouse is a <i>cartoon character</i>. Which plainly means, she's not real. She's fictional. She's an illustration. On top of that, she's a <i>mouse</i>, she's <i>not </i>even <i>human</i>. As much as she is adored by little girls all around the world, I think those children, who despite their age might not know much about the world around them, certainly can distinguish between the obvious difference in her appearance and a cartoon who has two huge mouse ears. I can't imagine a little girl standing around her dress up trunk at home saying "<i>Aww, I wish I was as skinny as Minnie Mouse in her dream sequence as a Parisian supermodel so I can fit in that Lanvin dress</i>." It's just<i> not</i> possible. This video was supposed to celebrate something fun! It was solely created to celebrate the holidays which is synonymous with everything that is good and cheerful this time of the year. A lot of it is based on dreams and fantasies (<i>HELLO</i> <i>it's Disney, people</i>) despite the fact that real people appear in the film -- it's about fashion so naturally actual people in the industry appear in it. <i>Get over it</i>. I really HATE it when someone somewhere always finds the <strike>negativity</strike> in everything. There are more pressing issues going on in the world right now to have to worry about than getting your knickers in a twist over something that's so harmless. If you see supermodel Minnie and your initial reaction is that it will set a bad example for young girls, you <i>need NOT</i> put together an online petition to rally up support, you need to go see a therapist because it sounds like <i>you're</i> the one with the body image issues (<i>among other things.</i>) Don't ruin something like this for the rest of us. </span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Since Thanksgiving is fast approaching we're already bombarded in every direction by all of the upcoming holiday deals and shopping events. From <i>Black Friday</i>, <i>Small Business Saturday</i>, and <i>Cyber Monday</i>, there are an ample amount of opportunities before December 25th to find something special for that special someone in your life -- in this case a very <i>fashionable and fashion savvy someone</i>. If there is someone on your list who speaks <i><b>style</b></i> and<b><i> fashion fluently</i></b>, then look no further than this ultimate gift guide that I've put together, which is personally inspired by my Christmas wish list this year. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> First of all, even though this seems like an obvious move, unless otherwise indicated or asked for by the person receiving the gift, I would stay away from clothes. Clothes are tricky in terms of taste, fit, and all the disastrous factors that goes into giving someone a dress, skirt, blouse, sweater, etc etc. Unless you know that person's style very well (<i>or giving them Chanel, you can NEVER go wrong with Chanel</i>) I wouldn't blindly go in that gift-giving direction. As for everything else, it's fair game so see my list below: </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Fashion Books</b> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Fashion coffee table books are guaranteed winners. I've never met a fashionista before who didn't like receiving a hard cover fashion book to add to his or her ever expanding fashion library. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Barneys New York Electric Holiday Disney Collaboration </b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">EVERYONE loves Disney. If you don't, you have something inherently wrong with you. With that said, for their holiday shop this year, Barneys collaborated with Disney to create<b> Electric Holiday </b>which includes gifts like a 9" <b>Diane Von Furstenberg</b> Vinylmation figurine (my personal favorite) to Mickey patchwork plaid ears and Christmas ornaments, there is something for everyone.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Movies and TV Box Sets</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Blu Rays, DVDs, and Television Box Sets also make great gifts. If you watch a lot of fashion savvy television shows and movies like I do, coming up with gift ideas in this category is easy. <i>Sex and the City</i>, <i>Gossip Girl</i>, <i>Mad Men</i> and <i>Downton Abbey</i> are just a few shows that have an acclaimed praise for their costume design and styling. I also loved the clothes in movies that I recently watched such as <i>Midnight in Paris</i>, <i>My Week with Marilyn</i>, and <i>Moonrise Kingdom</i>. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Handbags & Shoes </b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If diamonds are a girl's best friend, so are her handbags and collection of shoes. I know you might think that this falls under the apparel category, but here is where it differs: for handbags, all sizes fits all, and as for shoes.. well shoes are just fabulous and always make great gifts. Take a note from Carrie Bradshaw and Cinderella. You're welcome. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Technology </b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A lot of fashion houses have embraced this new category in their fashion line. From iPhone cases to iPad cases and cool headphones (and even texting friendly gloves! genius!) there is something for every single thing you own that requires an Apple charger. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> But if there is something that I absolutely know, it's that it's so much easier to shop for a fashion savvy girl on my list than anyone else (and I'm not just talking about myself.) And while you're on your Christmas shopping quest, don't forget the Christmas music. May I suggest <i>A Very She & Him Christmas</i>. Sing it, Zooey. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As cynical and sarcastic as I am, I'm a total romantic at heart. I still cry to the endings of romantic comedies (<i>The Five Year Engagement was the latest culprit</i>) and listen to songs that just melts and breaks my heart (<i>Taylor Swift's new album RED is currently on repeat on my iPod.</i>) And as the holiday season quickly approaches I'm beginning to put together my holiday ensembles -- <i>from Thanksgiving, Christmas parties, Christmas, New Years Eve, and everything in between</i> -- I only had one theme in mind: <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Romanticism</span></b>. I've always believed that there is something very romantic about the holidays *cue Love is All Around you from <i>Love Actually</i>. I found this beautiful gold brocade-like dress for Christmas and I didn't have to look far for styling inspirations because it's so easy to be inspired this time of the year. The dress is such a statement piece (</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;"><i>flowers of gold embroidered on bronze-dappled black mesh with a back cutout)</i> that I want to keep everything very minimal and simple with the exception of a fantastic headpiece. There is nothing I hate more than knowing exactly what I want and not being able to find it anywhere. And then a lightbulb lit up in my head and remembered those celestial star headpieces in the <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Rodarte F/W 2012</span></b> runway show that everyone was raving about (almost more than the clothes!) PERFECT! But now where to get them? Thanks to the age and rage of DIY tutorials on the internet I found the solution to my styling problems with a simple Google search and came across this fantastic video by <b>Refinery29</b>. Now all I need is a chic updo and a red pout and I'm ready to celebrate one of my favorite holidays. Only snow would make this moment truly romantic. </span></div>

As this great fall event comes to a close I'd like to share my Halloween costume this year as the <b>Great Gatsby</b>'s <b>Daisy Buchanan</b>. To prepare for the release of <b>Baz Luhrmann</b>'s rendition of this classic <b>Fitzgerald</b> story (coming out summer 2013), I thought dressing up as one of its complex characters is the best way to celebrate it. Not only do I love this 1922 novel, but I also love the style of the 20s (<i>along with the 50s and 60s</i>) and the costume design of the 1974 movie, starring Mia Farrow, and the collaborative genius of costume designer <b>Catherine Martin</b> and <b>Miuccia Prada</b> for the 2013 film. Instead of taking the predictable 1920s flapper route and buying a fringe dress in a bag from the costume store, I've decided from the very beginning to create this costume from scratch and make it as accurate as possible. I found this incredible dress with this intricate embroidery and sequin detail which was not as low waisted as I had hope (<i>to stay true to the 20s fashion</i>) but it worked perfectly for the occasion. Once I found the dress the accessories came easy: elbow length white gloves, pearls + pearls + more pearls (<i>a gorgeous pearl necklace with the crystal bow</i>), feather boa, and an amazing headpiece find which consisted of this amazing crystal pattern and feathers. PERFECT! I just added a classic red pout and gold heels and viola! I was instantly transformed into Daisy Buchanan and into the Jazz Age. To complete the costume I tried to play the part and say superficial things all night and made my voice sound like money.. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Today kicks off the first day of 13 Days of Halloween! Oh how I love Halloween. I love everything about this time of the year. From carving pumpkins to putting together a one-of-a-kind costume, this holiday calls for tradition. Although, I have to admit that when it comes to the mandated horror movies that this day requires, I'm not a very big fan of the typical blood and guts horror movie (<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">or Paranormal Activity. F#&K that movie. I couldn't sleep for months.</span></i>) Aside from The Addams Family (<i>which, let's face it, doesn't really count as horror but is definitely Halloween appropriate</i>) the most adventurous that I get with movies this time of the year is <i>It's a Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown</i>. That is until I discovered the films of <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Alfred Hitchcock</span></b>. I prefer the old school suspense and poor special effects. With the exception of the classic movie, <i>Psycho</i>, I personally think that the best Hitchcock films are the ones starring <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Grace Kelly</span></b>: <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"><b><i>Dial M for Murder</i></b> </span>(1954), <b><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Rear Window</span></i></b> (1954), <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"><i><b>To Catch a Thief</b></i> </span>(1955) -- all of which are featured in my annual list of Halloween movies . And yes, of course my opinion is completely biased. Any movie that combines the 50s, white gloves, Grace Kelly, and the talent of costume designer, <b>Edith Head</b>, becomes more of a fashion film to me than a classic Halloween appropriate thriller. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Except for <i>Dial M for Murder </i>(Moss Mabry), Edith Head created all of the iconic looks for <i>Rear Window</i> and to<i> Catch a Thief</i>. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> So this Halloween, if you're easily frightened and blood makes you squeamish (<i>bonus points if you appreciate costume design in films and love fashion</i>) I suggest looking into these three films. For a Stylist Fashion Blog-Hitchcock synopsis read below: </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The sixth and final season of Gossip Girl premiered on Monday which can only mean one thing: my favorite fall TV line up is finally here!!! Fall television premieres combine two of my most favorite things in the world -- television and fashion. Aside from the plot and drama, I'm particularly drawn to the wardrobe artistry of a show, which is why Patricia Field's work in Sex and the City will remain a classic, Gossip Girl is an obvious given, and Zooey Deschanel's feminine dresses and comedic styling as Jessica Day is an absolute must see. I'm also a huge fan of the fashions in time period television series like Mad Men and I recently got hooked on Masterpiece Classic's Downton Abbey whose third season is not being aired in the US until January 2013 (<i>booooo</i>) and the show is just about to enter the 1920s! </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Obviously the clothes don't appear on the actors and actress themselves, which is why the role of a wardrobe stylist is very vital to the production of the show. Even though these wardrobe stylists don't appear on screen, they're as famous and important as the clothes themselves. Ardent Sex and the City fans sometimes get more excited at a Pat Field sighting, as you will see, than Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte, and Miranda combined. And who better to explain this creative and collaborative process than the stylists themselves? Watch and see for yourself how my favorite wardrobe stylists on my favorite shows of all time help interpret the story of the show through styling. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Autumn is my favorite time of the year. I love everything about it from the cool change in weather to all my favorite holidays that it leads up to -- you know the usual -- Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas and of course the start of college football and countless other fall festivities and delights. Not to mention the clothes and the<i> oh-so-important </i>September issues begin to appear on newsstands. This year <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Vogue</span></b> is celebrating the magazine's legendary <b>120 </b>year anniversary! To properly celebrate such an important milestone, the magazine churned out a record breaking 916 page issue topping that famous <a href="http://fashionblog-cococouture.blogspot.com/2011/01/documentary-film-review-september-issue.html" target="_blank"><b>2007 September Issue</b></a> (<i>the focus of R.J. Cutler's documentary</i>) of 840 pages. In addition to producing the largest September Issue in the magazine's history, Vogue also released a new book to go along with its120th anniversary called <b>Vogue: The Editor's Eye</b>. The book focuses on the work of eight of the magazine's legendary fashion editors and of course it includes Vogue's creative director and my favorite fashion editorial stylist, <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Grace Coddington</span></b>. There was actually an excerpt of the book included in the September 2012 issue of the magazine with Lady Gaga (<i>wearing a custom made Marc Jacobs dress</i>) on the cover, which was supposed to pay homage to the very first issue of Vogue from December 17, 1892. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> This September Issue is not only a celebratory one, but it also gives us the best example of miss Coddington's great work. Not only did she style <b>Lady Gaga</b> for the cover and cover story, <b>Dream Girl</b>, (<i>and according to Anna Wintour's Editor's Note there were two dresses that were being considered for the cover: one that Grace particularly liked and one that Gaga preferred more, but Anna didn't reveal which dress made the cover! Tease!</i>) this issue also showcases Grace's great imagination and romanticism in her work and justifies time in time again why she is the greatest stylist that has ever lived. The editorial titled <b>Custom of the Country </b>features two of Grace's signature elements -- <b>Natalia Vodianova </b>and <b>Annie Leibovitz</b>: my favorite combination of all time. Along with the August 2012 spread, <b>The Great Escape </b>(<i>photographed by Peter Lindbergh</i>), both spreads have a very dreamy, whimsical, and cinematic feel to it. A lot of the clothes that Vodianova wears in that editorial were custom made by a lot of designers --<i> from Nina Ricci, Ralph Lauren, Rochas, Nicolas Ghesquiere for Balenciaga, to Oscar de la Renta</i> -- just for Vogue! I guess that's one of the many perks of being Grace Coddington and a publication like Vogue; designers don't hesitate to create something that will be exclusively featured in the magazine and those particular editorial shoots always become so memorable and one of my favorites as well. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> In terms of what's new and the latest fashion for fall, Vogue has launched a new feature titled <b>What to Wear Where </b>in its September and October issues which illustrates Grace's talent of interpreting the Fall 2012 runway fashions to the glossies of the magazine in September's <b>Her Brilliant Career</b> and October's<b> Cover Me</b>. The September feature has the model <b>Karlie Kloss</b> donning a lot of bright and colorful wigs with the season's best tailored looks for the office, peplums, structured leather bags, and those show stopping Prada platform heels. The October story features Kloss again alongside model <b>Daria Strokuos </b>where Grace, via the words of Anna Wintour, "<i>gave practical consideration to how to wear all of the sculpted and volumized coats that are around</i>" paired along with those Celine heels that are deemed to be the new heel shape (<i>spectator wedge with a notch nipped out under the arch as translated by Vogue</i>.) </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The October cover girl Kiera Knightley was also styled by miss Coddington in <b>Poise and Passion</b> where Kiera, who is going to star as Tolstoy's Anna Karenina in theaters this September, wears the haute couture pieces from the July couture runway shows. From the white finale look of Chanel to Raf Simons debut collection for Christian Dior, Kiera looked positively regal. And speaking of couture, in the feature <b>One Enchanted Evening</b>, Dolce and Gabbana presents its first couture collection in a confection of bell shaped skirts on the silk organza dresses and hand painted floral designs. It's considered couture because there is nothing ready-to-wear about these dresses, some even took three months to create! This is a collection that the duo has been dreaming of, with Domenico Dolce saying that "I<i>t's not just a dress. It's a dream -- a Dolce dream</i>."</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> And speaking of dreams, if there is one thing that I learn each month from Grace's work, it's that you shouldn't stop dreaming. I'm not talking about the kind that happens when you sleep. I'm talking more about a conscious dream and colorful fantasies. I don't know about you, but there is something about this season that never fails to inspire me to dream year after year. Something about the cool autumn air makes everything around seem so romantic and promising (<i>or maybe that's the impending Holiday season.</i>) Nonetheless, savor the pumpkin flavor lattes, break out the wool outwear, and don't forget to dream this fall. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The world of retail and fashion are not really known for living in the moment in terms of looking forward. Just like how you can walk into a Target store today and already be bombarded with Halloween candy and it's not even September. In a similar way that next year's spring fashions are being shown down the runways in New York City in September and the fall in February. It's all about looking ahead and what's next even if the seasons and months don't quite match up. So it wasn't really a surprise to me when <b>Women's Wear Daily </b>reported <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Barneys </span></b>upcoming holiday collaboration with <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Disney</span></b> this morning. I almost expected it, really, especially with several holiday previews already being exclusively displayed to fashion magazine editors and luxury department store buyers (<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">hint: sneak peeks through editors' and buyers' Instragram and Twitter accounts.</span></i>) </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> For the 2012 Holiday Season, Barneys New York is collaborating with Disney on a specialty store campaign titled, <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Electric Holiday</span></b>, that will be unveiled in the Madison Avenue flagship store on November 14. The collaboration will feature a three dimensional electric light show, a short film in the window display that will feature Disney's favorite characters like Mickey and Minnie Mouse in the likes of runway models, and an original score by Oscar winning composer Michael Giacchino. The theme of Electric Holiday is somewhat a play on the bright lights and special lighting in NYC during the holiday season and the flashbulbs at the end of a runway: so basically it will be very bright and colorful. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> For the short film that will be produced for the specialty store windows, Barneys worked very closely with the Disney animators to make sure that the fashion aspect of the collaboration stays very true, especially when it comes to the details of the clothes. Barneys' creative director <b>Dennis Freedman</b> said that </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #1d1d1d; line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“<i>The animator and I sat next to each other and went over every detail of the clothes — how they’re made, what material, how they would move — to get them as accurate as we possibly could</i>.” And in order to keep this authenticity throughout the entire creative process Minnie Mouse and the rest of the Disney characters had to also be believable. Meaning they couldn't keep their cartoonish figures and Minnie Mouse was transformed into a 5'11" supermodel lavishly dressed in <b>Lanvin </b>by<b> Alber Elbaz</b>. </span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #1d1d1d; line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #1d1d1d; line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The concept of the film centers around Minnie's fantasy to be at a Paris fashion show where she eventually crosses paths with the rest of the Disney cast looking as fashionably chic as she is in their unique designer clothes --</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #1d1d1d; line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #1d1d1d; line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mickey is dressed by <b>Nicolas Ghesquière</b> for <b>Balenciaga</b>, Goofy by <b>Olivier Rousteing </b>for <b>Balmain</b>, Daisy by<b> Dolce & Gabbana</b>, Cruella by <b>Rick Owens</b>, Princess Tiana by <b>Proenza Schouler</b> and Snow White by <b>Peter Copping</b> for <b>Nina Ricci</b>. <i>Tres chic, yes?</i></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #1d1d1d; line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #1d1d1d; line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> In addition to this specialty shop, Barneys will also have exclusive and limited edition holiday items </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #1d1d1d; line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">including several collectible <b><u>Vinylmation</u></b> figures designed by <b>Paul Smith</b> and <b>Diane von Furstenberg </b></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #1d1d1d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 19px;">(<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">both featured below</span>)</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #1d1d1d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 19px;">, and Mickey <b><u>Mouse ears</u></b> from <b>Rag & Bone </b>and <b>L’Wren Scott</b>. There will also be small gifts like ornaments, edible sweets and children’s toys for the season. And keeping true with the holiday spirit of giving, 25% of the proceeds made from these sales will be donated to charity (<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><i>yet to be named</i></span>.) Given the success of Lady Gaga's workshop last year, I think this holiday collaboration will also do incredibly well. It's Disney after all. It speaks well to many grown men and women, children, and the inner child in us all. So mark your calendars ladies and gentlemen, November 14!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> On July 2, 2012 <b> Raf Simons</b> debut <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"><b>Christian Dior</b>'s </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Autum/Winter 2012 Haute Couture</span> </b>in Paris. And if you were able to catch the streaming of the show on Style.com like I did, then you'd know that the set of the fashion show was just as stunning as the couture itself. This behind the scene video showcases the installation of 1 million fresh flowers to create the explosion of florals three days prior to the show: it's incredible! Watch closely in the beginning and you'll be able to catch a glimpse of Vogue's Grace Coddington in the front row sitting next to Hamish Bowles with Anna Wintour a few seats away, of course. You couldn't miss that mop of red hair anyway. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The last time the <b>Summer Olympic Games</b> were on, I had the television turned on while painting the walls of my college apartment in Tallahassee, Florida. Has it really been four years later already?? And with July 27th soon approaching, aside from cheering on Team <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">U</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc;">S</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">A</span>, the opening ceremony is definitely one of my favorite events and the most anticipated event by everyone in the world. Not only does it signal the start of the games, but it's also a great way to scope out all of the team fashion. For the <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">London 2012 Summer Olympic Games</span>, </b>Team USA's uniforms are designed by none other than <b style="color: red;">Ralph Lauren</b>. I mean come on, what's more appropriate than classic American Sportswear by Ralph Lauren?? And the uniforms this year is just that, <i>classic</i>. Classic and tailored, of course. <b>The design features a red, white, and navy palette with crisp blouses, cotton scarves, breezy skirts for the women and tailored pants for the men, and fitted blazers with the U.S. Olympic Team patches and of course the big Ralph Lauren pony logos.</b> Oh, and not to forget, matching navy caps. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I love love love these uniforms for the 2012 London games. I love how Ralph Lauren chose navy blue over royal blue as the base color for the entire design, giving the uniforms a very classic American look to the entire ensemble without hitting us over the head with the red, white, blue, stars, and stripes. Don't get me wrong, I think those elements in and of themselves are perfect for this occasion, but we don't want our Olympians to look like they're actually draped with an American flag from head to toe. The slight subtlety of this design is what makes it great, but you can definitely still see USA all over it. I love how the entire ensemble is very clean, classic, tailored and almost gives me a <i>1920s Fitzgerald-esque</i> impression. Nonetheless, they're going to look great out there and hopefully many many many medals will be present during the closing ceremony. <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">GO </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc;">TEAM </span></b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;"><b>US</b></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;"><b>A</b></span>! </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Before Ariel, Belle, and Jasmine there were the other three veteran princesses -- the one allergic to needles from spinning wheels (Aurora, aka Sleeping Beauty) the other with a vengeful stepmother, skin white as snow, and with seven vertically challenged roommates (Snow White) and finally the one forced to become a servant in her own home by yet another sinister stepmother and as equally friendly to all the talented and domestic singing animals, <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Cinderella</span></b> -- which is actually my favorite story. The movie which was released in 1950 will be on <b>Blu Ray</b> for the first time on October 2, 2012. And to celebrate this <b>Diamond Edition</b> release, Walt Disney asked Parisian shoe maker, <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Christian Louboutin</span></b>, to create a modern day interpretation of the iconic glass slippers. And no, the result is not a literal creation of actual glass slippers. Can you imagine walking around the cobblestones of Paris or the concrete sidewalks of New York City in actual glass pumps even if it did have that coveted red-sole? Your feet and the shoes would never make it pass a couple of blocks. Christian Louboutin's interpretation of Cinderella's glass slippers was even better -- think <b>peep-toe, 120 mm, delicate white lace with sparkling crystals, butterfly accents, and heels adorned with Swarovski elements</b> -- you can't get any more modern than that. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The shoes are currently in display in<b> Paris </b>with the exhibition including stills and sketches from the making of the 1950s Disney film, along with a short six-minute film of Christian Louboutin playing a <i>fairy-godmother-like</i> cobbler who is under a tight deadline to finish Cinderella's shoes. And just like in the original film when poor Cinderelly didn't have the time to re-design her mother's old dress for the Prince's ball, monsieur Louboutin receives help from friendly animals to find the inspiration of the shoes and complete them. And since we don't have a clip of that six-minute film, this 14:45 clip of that famous dress making scene is the next best thing! </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> There is always something so romantic and feminine in <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Erin Fetherston</span></b>'s designs. Of course the clothes themselves change every season but her whimsical and delicate aesthetic still stays true. I can flip through a magazine or go over images of dresses on the Internet and easily spot something she has designed in the same way that a veteran editor for a high fashion magazine can easily recognize a signature red Valentino gown on the red carpet or a Karl Lagerfeld creation for Chanel, even before the words, "<i>Who are you wearing?</i>" are even uttered. And of course, her latest Look Book for her<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"> 2013 Resort </span></b>collection is no exception -- I can see Erin <i>all over</i> that pink jacquard dress with the bows and delicate cut-outs in the back. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> My favorite pieces in her collection are always her dresses, which this collection has absolutely no shortage of, but it also features plenty of separate pieces like skirts, jackets, tops, cardigans and even a couple of maxi dresses. The color palette is very light but also includes some punchy and bold colors (an orange and pink color-block shift dress, a very bold red peplum number, a variation of green and blue hues and a very delicious rose-colored pink.) The collection also exudes so much romanticism and feminism in all of its delicate lace, satin crepe, and chiffon along with an interesting integration of jacquard and sequins. Most of the pieces are on the dressier side, but can actually be great transitional pieces as somewhat hinted with the model going barefoot for the look book. With the right accessories, any girl could easily dress up or dress down any piece in the collection. And can I also point out how much I'm in love with the jeweled crown and exaggerated bunny-ears/hello kitty-esque bows in this look book. I would totally wear that crown if and when the right occasion calls for it! </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The moment that I see a new issue of <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Teen Vogue</span></b> on newsstands, I know that my copy will be arriving in the mail soon enough. It's pretty much the only magazine that I've consistently subscribed to since I was sixteen and even years later, I still get really excited when a new issue arrives (<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">I don't think I'll ever outgrow this excitement</span></i>.) The <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">August 2012</span></b> issue features on-screen and real life lovebirds <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Emma Stone </span></b>and <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Andrew Garfield</span></b> in a cover story titled <i><b>World Wide Web</b></i> that was photographed by <b>Josh Olins</b> and styled by <b>Cathy Kasterine</b>. With the much anticipated movie <i>The Amazing Spider-Man</i> coming out July 3 starring the duo, the momentum of work (<i>filming, the inevitable press tours, and movie premieres</i>) hasn't really stopped for this couple, especially for Emma who has had a pretty busy couple of years. That same newsstand this month holds her first <b>Vogue</b> cover for the July 2012 issue and she also snagged June 25, 2012 cover of<b> New York Magazine</b>. But then again, I don't think we expect anything less from someone who recently won the Trailblazer Award at the 2012 MTV Movie Awards. I was pleasantly surprised on how moved she was by that award. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The setting of the cover shoot, which was shot on a Manhattan rooftop and styled to look like New York City's High Line park, definitely evokes the back-to-school feel of the issue (<i>it is the August issue after all</i>) with fall's crisp pieces, bright coats, bold accessories, and a lot of other props and headwear thrown into the mix including Marc Jacobs's recent creation of the so-called Dr. Seuss furry hat that was featured in his Fall 2012 runway show. Emma Stone, whose hair color constantly vary in different films, looks gorgeous as a blonde (<i>her natural hair color</i>) while clad in Louis Vuitton, Alexander McQueen, Marc Jacobs, Mulberry, and Calvin Klein Collection dresses and a bedazzled Prada coat. And with a high-school superlative theme to go along with the shoot, Andrew Garfield is looking equally dapper in tailored suits and jackets ranging from Burberry to Thom Browne. Teen Vogue voted them most likely to succeed in the issue, but I say they're cutest couple. Now only if the cover story talked more about <i>their</i> relationship and a little less of Ryan Gosling. </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>"In 1969, a young woman named <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Pamela Rosalind Grace Coddington</span></b> joined British </i>Vogue<i>'s fashion department. Already well established as a model, Grace Coddington was gifted with an instinct that enabled her to change her look overnight, often ahead of fashion. In time, she would become creative director of the American edition of </i>Vogue <i>and the main producer of the <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Style Essay</span></b>. It was she who would make the genre international and would develop its new variations. </i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>Coddington has been in charge of most of the magazine's Style Essays, which have become regular landmarks in the magazine's year. Coddington is considered the most experienced, knowledgeable, and innovative fashion editor working today. 'She has the eye and the instinct to know which look could inspire,' says Wintour, "and an uncanny ability to take the seed of an idea and turn it into a famous narrative . . . . She always sees fashion in terms of stories, of an amusingly romantic bent . . . . Little wonder all the photographers want to work with her: She inspires them and challenges them like no one else." </i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Ever since I was old enough to appreciate the value and worth of an issue of Vogue I've somehow established a certain custom of how I would devour the pages of a new issue. While waiting in the check-out line to purchase my new issue (<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><i>because I'm not patient enough to wait for magazine subscriptions to come in the mail and somewhat distrustful of the mailing system because of lost issues in the past that never made it to my mailbox</i></span>) I usually sneak a quick peek in the back of the magazine to get a glimpse of <b>Grace Coddington</b>'s latest editorials, but still manage to contain my excitement and make it back to my desk before going through the magazine from cover to cover. This particular habit goes a little bit like this: </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. I promptly remove all of those loose subscription cards and use them as bookmarks as I quickly flip through the entire magazine to look at the ads and editorials, while marking specific sections such as the<i> Letter from the Editor</i>, any interesting articles that catches my eye along the way, the cover story, and of course Grace Coddington's Style Essays in the<i> Point of View</i>. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. After this initial observance I backtrack to Anna Wintour's editor letter which perfectly summarizes the major themes and certain highlights of the issue. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. Then depending on my mood and who's on the cover I would either read the cover story and closely examine the cover spread noting the stylist and the photographer or dive right into Grace's Style Essays taking in the story of the spread and simultaneously making a mental note of all the details in each page (<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">designer of all the pieces, shoes, jewelry, handbag, etc.</span></i>) </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4. I would continue on to the rest of the editorials in the magazine with more precise attention this time around and then read all of the articles starting with the ones that interested me the most. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I know it alls sounds a little crazy and a bit too meticulous, especially over a fashion magazine, but what you have to realize is that it's the images in these magazines that ultimately drive trends each season and contribute to what we see in the media, what's in our shopping malls, and finally into our closets. Fashion didn't become a multi-billion dollar business by being passive and idle. It indirectly influences all of us even if we can't afford those red-soled Christian Louboutin pumps or Karl Lagerfeld's latest recreation of a Chanel tweed jacket. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Most people will never appreciate the images in a fashion magazine, let alone pick up a copy of a glossy and think about the implications of its contents and how it relates to what's going on in the world like politics, health, beauty, the arts, travel, and food. But to me, a new issue of Vogue is more than just pretty pictures or pictures of unaffordable pieces of clothes and shoes on an impossibly tall, fit, and gorgeous model -- that interpretation is too literal. Aside from forecasting trends, which arguably is its main aim, is the fact that it tells a beautiful fashion narrative along the way. And that's why I love and admire <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Grace Coddington</span></b>'s work so much.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Her work in the pages of Vogue goes beyond showing the readers that shorts are making a huge statement this summer season, as displayed in May 2012's <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">"<i><b>Short Order</b></i>"</span> or how designers are making a lot of bold risks in recent collections by experimenting with dramatic volume, shapes, and silhouettes as outlined in July 2012's <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">"<i><b>The New Normal</b>.</i>"</span> Her editorials aim to tell a cohesive fashion story, but it tells it with an additive dose of fantasy, romanticism, and whimsical touch. Take April 2012's <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">"<i><b>Checking Out</b></i>"</span> featuring Kate Moss for example. On face value this Style Essay and its accompanying stories informs the reader about the upcoming renovations at the Ritz in Paris and the editors' nostalgic experiences in this famed hotel. But the spread is not just sixteen pages of pictures of an old and historic hotel in France, but rather it's filled with images of Kate Moss clad in the latest couture collections. I mean, what's more appropriate than having Kate Moss dressed in a black Chanel Haute Couture embroidered organza flower coat and pumps in the Imperial Suite where Karl Lagerfeld presented his 1996 couture collection, while simultaneously having the room littered with Chanel boxes in varying sizes??? I can't think of one. Not only do these images portray such a wondrous fantasy, it's almost a piece of art that you want to frame and hang up on the wall. It makes you feel this certain passion and beauty that you can't really put into words, or at least that's how I often feel. It's iconic for a reason. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Other times, some of Grace's editorials touches on current events like the new exhibit at the MET called "Impossible Conversations" in May 2012's <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">"<b><i>Talk to Her</i></b>"</span> in which the museum exhibition explores the uncanny resemblances between two designers' work, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Elsa Schiaparelli and Miuccia Prada -- despite the fact that both are from two completely different eras (<i>Schiaparelli during the time of Chanel in the 1920s and Miuccia with her current collections such as Prada and Miu Miu in present day</i>.) Sometimes the magazine will even feature an actor, actress, or other artists (<i>not to be confused with the cover story</i>) and integrates that story with one of Grace's famous Style Essays. This particular feature usually pairs such artist with a model to tell the fashion narrative, in which this case May 2012's<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"> "<i><b>Modern Times</b></i>"</span> has actor Michael Fassbender posing alongside Natalia Vodianova in fall's latest collections. Albeit, May is a summer issue and it is a little too warm and a little too early to show Fall trends (<i>especially those Givenchy boots, but still.. *swoon</i>), but this is the fashion industry we're talking about. In fashion, it's always about what's next and it's constantly moving forward -- I mean the Spring/Summer shows are in the fall (September Fashion Week) and the Fall/Winter shows are showcased so close to spring (February Fashion Week) for <i>chrissakes</i>.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> However these images make you feel and whatever your philosophy is on the subject of fashion and trends, if you have learned anything new at all or even felt a little something while getting lost in one of Grace Coddington's famous editorials and features, I personally think, that that speaks volumes as to the impact of this iconic magazine and perhaps Grace. It can be easily argued that all of this is very melodramatic. But I'd much rather be dramatic and passionate about something that's meaning to me than not. Keyword: me. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Regardless on how you feel about fashion, I think we all can come to the same consensus that it's fueled by equal parts of art, fantasy, imagination, creativity, talent, and storytelling. When I was a little girl, there was nothing more magical than make believe and fantasy. I think that as we get older, those who lose sight of that unknowingly (or not) lose a little bit of themselves, I mean isn't adulthood serious enough? I thrived on the Disney classic movies and books like Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, the Wizard of Oz, the Chronicles of Narnia, and the magical world that JK Rowling created in the Harry Potter series -- basically anything that was <i><strike>impossible</strike></i> made <i>possible</i> via the TV screen and book pages. So you can only imagine my utter delight at the new <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Mulberry Fall 2012</span></b> ad campaign inspired by creative director, <b>Emma Hill</b>, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">with the themes of dark fairy tales and fantasy travels as </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">set in the Blackheath Forrest in Surrey, Englad (</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><i>uhm hello, Number 4 Privet Drive Little Whinging, Surrey, anyone?</i></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">)</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The ad campaign, which was photographed by <b>Tim Walker </b>and I'm sure will start appearing in August glossies, was said to be inspired by a hybrid of the Grimm Brothers Fairy Tales and the Muppets. <i>That at least explains all the furriness</i>. It features the young American model <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Lindsey Wixson</span></b> clad with looks from Mullberry's F/W 2012 collection and of course complete with the highly coveted <b>Del Rey</b> (<i>yes, actually re-named after the singer Lana Del Rey after she was spotted carrying it around so much</i>) <b>Maisie</b>, and <b>Alexa</b> bags (<i>yes, that Alexa Chung</i>) in an array of embellished, earth tones, and even a punchy orange hue. <b>Ronnie Cooke Newhouse</b>, who directed the campaign with her company House + Holme, said that setting is supposed to be an "<i>interpretation of fears and dreams</i>," which was also made to life by this idea that the photographer, Tim Walker, had when he was a little boy of wanting to monsters in the woods.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> H</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">ow unbelievably chic is that monochromatic orange ensemble with the matching orange Maisie bag?? I'm usually not a big fan of the color but the cut of that skirt and the bold details of the bodice is absolutely gorgeous. I love tops with longer and modest sleeves.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> But with that fashion gush said, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I can definitely see the Grimm's Fairy Tales reference and a little bit of the Muppets, but the monsters in the background reminds me more of the furry creatures in the 2009 film, <i>Where the Wild Things Are</i>. It's a beautiful and playful concept that definitely ventures to our childhood fantastical psyches and a great reminder that fashion is and always will have this kind of imagination of playful fantasy and romanticism. After all, aren't all inspirations for the new collections every season derived from some kind of image, a particular fantasy, that a designer develops in his or her head? An ad campaign is just another medium, another step further, of illustrating that image and conveying the story to the masses. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><b>Simon</b>: "Well for one thing it gives Givenchy a night off." </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> When<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"> Audrey Hepburn</span></b>'s character, <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Nicole Bonnet</span></b>, was planning how to steal the Cellini Venus statue with <b>Simon Dermott</b>, played by <b>Peter O' Toole</b>, from a Paris museum to help conceal her father's art forgeries, Simon duly noted the incredible amount of Givenchy that Nicole wore. The <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Hubert de Givenchy</span></b> and Audrey Hepburn movie-costume-design collaboration, relationship, and friendship was well established by the time <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-weight: bold;">How to Steal a Million </span><span class="Apple-style-span">was filmed. And like any other designer-and-actress-relationship (<i>Natalie Portman with Kate and Laura Mulleavy of Rodarte, Karl Lagerfeld with Blake Lively, Elle Fanning with Marc Jacobs</i>) the Givenchy and Audrey Hepburn dynamic was one that flourished even off the big screen. As a matter of fact, when Givenchy first heard word of a Miss Hepburn stopping by his atelier to pick out some dresses for an upcoming Hollywood film, he was expecting to meet the <i>other </i>Hepburn -- Katherine Hepburn. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><br /></span></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span"> Audrey Hepburn first met Hubert de Givenchy when she was sent to Paris by director Billy Wilder to pick out some designer originals for the second major film that she was just cast in, <i>Sabrina</i>. Audrey just finished shooting <i>Roman Holiday</i>, the film that catapulted her to movie stardom and earned her her first Academy Award, and since the movie would not be released in America for a month, the young actress named Audrey Hepburn was relatively unknown, which explains Givenchy's innocent mistake of expecting the other famous Hepburn. From that initial meeting, Audrey who was 24 years old, and Hubert 26, bloomed a friendship that lasted for a lifetime. In each other they found someone who loved clothes as much as themselves and a friendship that would extend beyond films and fashion. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><br /></span></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span"> When I first watched <b>How to Steal a Million</b> the one scene that really stayed with me was when Nicole Bonnet was meeting Simon Dermott at his hotel bar at the Ritz to propose a museum heist. The camera scans Audrey from the ground up wearing black leather pumps, black textured stockings, a delicate black lace Givenchy dress with a matching 3/4 length lace jacket and a mask. The lace mask was beautifully wrapped over her face and around her super mod-60s hair do and it absolutely did not hide the gorgeous and sparkling eye make up and diamond statement earrings that accompanied the entire look. The intent of this scene was for Nicole to be incognito so she could discuss something very confidential without raising any suspicion, but if I was in that bar at the same moment of their meeting, my attention would be completely on her because she looked so stunning. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><br /></span></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span"> Every single look in this film, minus her faux museum cleaning lady outfit, was pure Givenchy and it's absolutely heaven. The first time Audrey's character Nicole Bonnet came on screen driving a red Autobianchi Bianchina Special Cabriolet, she was decked out from head to toe in a creamy white Givenchy ensemble -- white skirt, blouse, coat, gloves, stockings, shoes, scarf, hat, belt, and even stockings. The entire ensemble had a very British-Mod-60s feel to it (<i>the movie was filmed in 1966 afterall</i>) but once she stripped off the layers of outerwear and accessories inside the house, a beautiful peplum-like blouse is revealed which was cinched at the waist to accentuate her impossibly small waist, and a skirt that came just below the knee. I really can't think of anyone else that can pull off such a bold Givenchy look like this other than Audrey. The rest of the outfits in the film incorporated a little more color -- a pink coat, a yellowish and citrus green skirt suits, a navy double breasted coat -- and a lot more accessories and other assortment of hats which she is famously known for. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The comedy, wit, and storyline of this romantic comedy about an art museum heist is very classic Audrey, but it's really the clothes in her movies that always leave a lasting impression and never stops inspiring me. Apparently that black lace Givenchy creation that I love so much was sold in a London auction for $100,000 (<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">holy crap!</span></i>) Why can't we go back to the time when glamour and grandeur was deemed normal in everyday dressing? When dressing was actually regarded an art instead of just comfort? Why can't we have both? Maybe a hotel bar rendezvous while wearing conspicuous Givenchy lace masks should be in order. We'll all definitely look like we're up to no good. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> After last week's Gossip Girl season 5 finale, the CW released their fall line up which includes both good and bad news. The bad news is that Gossip Girl's 6th season will be its last which makes me simultaneously sad and relieved at the same time. I mean, even the most avid Gossip Girl fans who tune in every week since its release in 2007 have to admit that the storyline and all of the new (<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">and may I add confusing</span></i>) and surprising character matches and missed connections is weighing the entire series down. You do <i>NOT</i> want me to get started on the entire <strike>Blair and Dan romance</strike>. And what's up with Serena's character due to her unrequited love and dwindling popularity on the Upper East Side? BUT for a piece of good news! The CW also confirmed that they have picked up <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">The Carrie Diaries</span></b> which is a show based on the book series written by the same author of <b>Sex and the City</b>, <b>Candace Bushnell</b>. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> If the title and bushy blonde hair didn't make it obvious enough, <b>The Carrie Diaries</b> is a prequel to the <b>Sex and the City </b>franchise which follows a young <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Carrie Bradshaw</span></b>, who will be played by the actress <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">AnnaSophia Robb</span></b>, in the 80s during her senior year of high school. The show is said to also have the familiar names from Gossip Girl, creator and executive producer <b>Stephanie Savage</b> along with the show's famed costume designer <b>Eric Daman</b>. And of course author <b>Candance Bushnell</b> also serves as one of the show's executive producers. Which makes a lot of sense since she's the one who pretty much wrote the story which inspired the show (<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">and not to mention the HBO series.</span></i>) </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> A couple of months ago, a photo of <b>AnnaSophia Robb</b> dressed as <b>Carrie Bradshaw</b> and styled by <b>Eric Daman</b> was released on the internet. The photo features a young Carrie Bradshaw dressed in a sparkly A-line dress complete with red pointed pumps, a waist cinching belt with a heart buckle, and a leopard print cardigan -- <i>which I might add is very true to Carrie </i>-- </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">with New York City skyline in the background</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">. There are a lot of questions going on in the internet as to who will play the other three girls, but if you have the books starting with the first one, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Carrie-Diaries-Candace-Bushnell/dp/B005UVQE68/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1337632205&sr=8-1" target="_blank">The Carrie Diaries</a> that was released in 2010, then you should know that Carrie doesn't even the girls until the second book. <u>SPOILER ALERT</u>: If you read the books, Carrie met Samantha and Miranda first during the second book <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Summer-City-Carrie-Diaries-Novel/dp/B006OHWMCM/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1337632434&sr=8-3" target="_blank">Summer in the City</a>, released in 2011, and meets Charlotte in a train at the end of the book with that particular storyline explored in the <i>not-yet-released</i> third book. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I can't even tell you how impatient I am over the release of the third book especially after finishing the second over a year ago. All I know is that the third book can't come soon enough (<i>is it even written yet Candace Bushnell??!?</i>) and for my fall TV line up to begin. For the meantime, I guess we should just all enjoy our summer and perhaps take the time to read the books 1 and 2! Cheers. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> It was when I watching a <i><b>Sex and the City</b></i> re-run one night that I ultimately decided that I've got to invest in those season box sets. I thought that it was time that I finally watch ALL of the episodes and those <i>wretched re-runs</i> are almost never shown in the right chronological order. That initial thought was the catalyst which started this unintentional quest for all things<i> Sex and the City </i>and of course finding out more about <b>Carrie Bradshaw</b> (<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><i>who is my favorite character btw</i></span>.) After all, I was only <i>eleven</i> years old when the HBO series began and<i> nine </i>when <b>Candace Bushnell</b> wrote the book which ultimately inspired the television series, so I obviously had a lot of catching up to do. After having purchased and watched all six seasons (<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">which actually came in 7 box sets in total because the sixth season was split in two parts</span></i>) -- <i>and by the way they were re-designed from those tacky plastic covers they initially came in into these super cute new covers that had a memorable Carrie Bradshaw moment set against a very clever New York City skyline backdrop made out quotes from the show</i> -- I also managed to track down a copy of the book in it's original cover that was published in 1996. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> And when I thought that I was done obsessing over Carrie, I just remembered the <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">June 2008 Vogue</span></b> cover story which accompanied the release of the first movie. I remember buying this copy after finally watching the movie with some college girlfriends and crying my eyes out, especially during the jilting wedding scene. The cover shoot, titled <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Rebel Romance</span></b>, which featured both <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Sarah Jessica Parker</span></b> and <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"><b>Chris Noth</b></span> (<i>Mr. Big</i>) was styled by<b> Phyllis Posnick</b> and photographed by none other than one of my favorite photographers, <b>Annie Leibovitz</b>. The concept for the shoot was supposed to be their imaginary honeymoon, but <b>Anna Wintour </b>and the rest of <b>Vogue </b>ultimately decided that the only honeymoon destination island for this couple is Manhattan. The spread is pretty much self-explanatory -- Carrie with Mr. Big seen in several New York City landscapes (<i>on the observation deck of Rockefeller Center, in front of Bergdorf Goodman, a suite in the Plaza hotel, at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Metropolitan Opera, and ascending steps at Central Park)</i> complete with glamour, romance (<i>or should I say heavy PDA and almost borderline inappropriate?</i>) and of course the latest and greatest <u>fashions</u> (<i>the clothes almost make you wonder if Patricia Field had a hand in it all!</i>) Oh, and of course don't forget the <b>Manolos</b>. Come to think of it, the theme of this entire shoot is pretty much the premise of <i>Sex and the City: The Movie </i>but that doesn't mean that it's any less <i>fabulous</i>. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The proposal to write a review for this novel started innocently enough -- I was having lunch on a porch of a restaurant during a beautiful spring day in St. Simons, Georgia when I received an email from an associate of <i>Simon & Schuster </i>(<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><i>and for those of you who don't know, </i>Simon & Schuster <i>is one of the four major publishing house based out of New York City.</i></span>) As I skimmed through it, I thought to myself, <i><strike>this has got to be spam</strike></i>. But then certain specifics of the contents of the email made me immediately think otherwise. The books that I've reviewed on this blog are mostly style books and I have yet to do one on a novel, but those aforementioned details of the email, one of them being that it's written by New York socialite <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Tinsley Mortimer</span></b>, and after actually having read the book, <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Southern Charm</span></b>, definitely persuaded me to reconsider. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> If you're wondering why the name Tinsley Mortimer sounds so familiar, it's probably because there's a pretty good chance that you've heard or read it somewhere before or even watched her reality show <i>High Society</i> on CW (<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">that's certainly where I know her from</span></i>) or even spotted her as a guest star in shows like <i>Gossip Girl</i>, <i>America's Top Model</i>, and <i>The Fashion Show</i> (<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><i>you know, the other fashion design show with Isaac Mizrahi on Bravo before he became a judge on Project Runway All Stars.</i></span>) The title of the book is pretty much explanatory because Tinsley is a southern belle turned New York City socialite and fashion mogul. Aside from being featured on the pages of <b>Vogue</b>, <b>Women's Wear Daily</b>, <b>Harper's Bazaar</b>, and <b>Marie Claire</b>, Tinsley also served as a beauty ambassador for <b>Christian Dior</b> and currently designs handbags for Samantha Thavasa. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">"The only way you're going to survive, the only way you're going to succeed, is if you stay true to yourself... I'm saying keep curling your hair."</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Even though Southern Charm is a novel, you're going to figure out pretty quickly that the story itself mirrors Tinsley's personal experiences pretty closely and perhaps for good reason. Besides, isn't it easier to write about something that you know? The story is about a privileged southern girl named <b>Mary Randolph Mercer Davenport</b>, or<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"> Minty Davenport</span></b>, who grew up in Charleston, South Carolina and moves to the big city to escape her post-UNC Chapel Hill life and pursue a design career in fashion. I mean, what better place to pursue such aspiration than <i>the </i>mecca of Fashion? Minty visited New York City several times before as a child and thanks to her bed time readings of <b>Eloise at the Plaza</b>, she always had this image of the big city as this wondrous and glittery place full of life and adventure, as opposed to the concrete jungle that it really is. She quickly learns this lesson upon her arrival and the rest of the story is pretty much about her navigating her way around this fast-paced and cut-throat industry, carving out her own niche, and creating a new home for herself all while trying to stay true to who she is and what she believes in. I won't spoil the main plot of story for you, but rest-assured that there is definitely drama, betrayals, lies, love and romance, and <i>lots</i> and <i>lots</i> of <u>fashion</u>. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The thing about these kinds of books is that a healthy imagination is a requirement. And even if you're a visual person but simultaneously a fashion enthusiast like myself, it's not very hard to picture the people, the places around New York City, the events, and of course the clothes, the shoes, and accessories. I suppose that's what I love the most about this book is the imagery that it paints for the reader. Intentional or not, it does a really good job in portraying the nature of the main characters based on how they're dressed. (<i>I mean, what else are we going to be talking about, this is a Fashion Blog!</i>) There's a great deal told about this story and the people in it through through the imagery of their clothes specifically in terms of literary concepts like metaphors, symbolisms, and contrasts. And of course this is especially true of the main character, Minty, who after all is the focal and driving force of the entire novel. </span></div>

It took everything inside me not to faint." </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Minty Davenport's first New York City event was at the Saks Fifth Avenue charity luncheon as a "seat filler" favor for her sorority Big Sister Emily Maplethorpe, the PR manager for Saks. It was a total <i>fish out of water</i> experience for Minty and not to mention she stood out like a sore thumb in a pink <b>Alice + Olivia</b> dress while all of the most influential people in fashion in that room </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">(</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>designers, stylists, magazine editors</i></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">) </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">are all dressed in black. Like I said, intentional not, this was a great way to make the distinction that Minty's character is not like everyone else in this new place. That pink dress was a great contrast for a wide-eyed, ambitious girl, new to the city compared to the jaded New Yorkers and natives all dressed in black. A similar situation happened when Minty met up with Emily for brunch at a place called Swifty's where she landed a job as Ruth Vine's assistant for her Fashion PR company. While everyone around her on a Saturday morning was dressed in earth tones and browns, Minty, once again with her Southern roots distinctly displayed, wore floral-print tea-length dress. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The moment that she began working for Ruth Vine is when her fashion began to transform and accommodate all the other changes in her life including the fast-paced and detail oriented facets that her new job demanded. The initial scene at the offices of RVPR finds Minty in a black <b>Theory</b> pencil skirt, white blouse, but with a little hint of color from her jewelry. It has been made evident that while she's certainly welcoming the changes and adjustments in her life and new career, she still tries to hold on to a little bit of herself in the form of color in something as simple as a statement necklace. Then as she meets all these new people in the city and attends several luxurious events and parties, her color palette slightly shifts to grays, blacks, and nudes. And the rest of the dresses that follow is just as significant as the one proceeding after it. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The Frick Ball (<i>even if it's not as grand or as big of a deal as the MET Ball</i>) symbolizes Minty Davenport's societal debut to New York City and of course she wore her one of a kind debutante gown in which she was later featured in the famous New York Times "Sunday Styles" pages. And on top of the entire Minty and Tripp love fiasco (<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">engagement at the Rockefeller Center on Christmas Eve, the planning of a grand wedding in Charleston, Tabitha Lipton scandal which led to a a premature courthouse elopement, and of course the London disloyalty which lead to their demise</span></i>) Minty fell in love with this <b>Oscar de la Renta</b> wedding gown worthy of a fairy tale and of course, not every story has a fairy tale ending. She finally realizes that maybe life in New York City is nothing like Eloise at the Plaza. But she eventually gets her fairy tale ending when Kevin Park -- an up and coming designer who she becomes a brand ambassador for, who she helps launch his brand to superstardom on the pages of Women's Wear Daily and the racks of <b>Barneys</b> and <b>Neiman Marcus</b>, and designs an exclusive handbag collection for -- invites her to be his date to the MET Gala. The MET Gala is a fundraising event held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art hosted by Vogue and most importantly made popular by Vogue's editor in chief, Anna Wintour. So all of the glamour and exclusivity is pretty much implied. And with such a special occasion such as this, it is only fitting (<i>and almost a tradition, think Kate Moss wearing Marc Jacobs with March Jacobs as they ascend the historic steps of the MET</i>) that Minty wears a one-of-a-kind dress designed by the designer that she's accompanying -- a "<i>barely-found-in-nature-let-alone-on-a-couture-dress</i>" peony pink dress to be exact. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Not only is <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Zooey Deschanel</span></b> my ultimate girl crush and comedic hero, (<i>right alongside funny girl, Kristen Wiig</i>) she is also my style soulmate and<i> dark-hair-thick-bangs-twin</i>, except for the fact that she has a beautiful singing voice and I can hardly carry a tune. I've always loved her movies and music -- <i>yes even as a blonde in Elf, the often glanced over YES Man, and the romantic cult movie 500 Days of Summer</i> -- even before her hit FOX show, <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">New Girl</span></b>, made it big. And since its first season is finally coming close to the finale (<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">the 23rd episode and season finale will air May 1, 2012</span></i>) I thought that it was more than appropriate, now more than ever, to obsessed over Deschanel's character, <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Jess Day</span></b>'s girly and quirky style. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> What's great about any characters that Zooey Deschanel plays, whether it be in the big or small screen, is that they almost always closely resemble the person that she is and her personal style -- especially as it has been made evident with the before mentioned movies like <i>YES Man</i> and <i>500 Days of Summer</i>. I know for a fact that Deschanel works closely with all the costume designers in all of her projects and New Girl was no exception (<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><i>she actually helped put together a lot of Summer Finn's looks in 500 Days of Summer</i></span>.) With the help of the show's costume designer, <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Debra McGuire</span></b>, the two have managed to put together looks that are very consistent with the character of Jessica Day and of course, Zooey Deschanel. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> There was definitely no scarcity of color, playful prints like florals, polka dots, nautical stripes, colorful cardigans and suede ballet flats, and other feminine details in accessories this season. Deschanel's style and persona has often been characterized as "quirky" (<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.hulu.com/watch/328553/saturday-night-live-bein-quirky-with-zooey-deschanel" target="_blank">have you seen the SNL skits featuring Abby Elliot as Zooey Deschanel?? So funny! Click this link!</a></span></i>) and I think that humor she brings as a comedic actress is reflected in her personal style as well. I cannot even begin to list all of my favorite A-line dresses, bright colorful full length coats, and feminine accessories like red patent leather bow belts. Given her shape, I think it's very wise that she accentuates her waist with skinny to medium sized belts and go for A-line style dresses and skirts which in turn makes her look very lean and tall. And not to mention, it gives the entire ensemble a very tailored looked. Also given the fact that Deschanel is relatively short (<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><i>petite size of 5'5"</i></span>) adding layers to the looks like cardigans and blazers, colorful coats and tights, gives her looks a lot more depth which help distract from her height. The only thing that she and I disagree on, style wise, is her choice of wearing kitten heels <i>(kitten heels are basically any heel height that's shorter than 3 inches</i>.) She wore a lot of different colored suede ballet flats in the show, which I loved, but I'm not such a big fan of her kitten heel usage. Although, it works in her favor since her style is very lady-like/feminine and retro and gives it like a vintage-y-baby doll feel to the entire look (<i>but not the Japanese baby dolls.</i>) </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> It should come as no surprise to anyone that I'm huge fan of positive and influential women. Not influential in the sense that they're always chasing the limelight and fame, but rather in the way that they use their name to do good for the world around them, and yes even themselves. Fashion designer and mogul<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"><b> Diane Von Furstenberg</b></span> has always been that woman for me. I admire her for her fashion design career (<i>she pioneered the wrap dress afterall</i>) but most importantly, her wisdom. If you follow her on <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/DVF" target="_blank">Twitter</a> or have read about her amazing life, it's almost as if she's this other mother that we women often need. She's constantly saying the most inspirational and nurturing words. I read her autobiography, <i><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Diane-Signature-Life-Von-Furstenberg/dp/143917587X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1334969664&sr=8-1" target="_blank">Diane: A Signature Life</a></i> a couple of months ago and every page was filled with the kind of truth and insight that only someone who has lived such a full life like she has could write. The one quote that she said that completely resonated with me is, "<i>The most important relationship you have in your life, is the relationship you have with yourself</i>." So simple, yet very ingenious, right? Because if you don't like or agree with who you are as a person, then how do you expect others to see the good and potential in you? </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> If you think about it, she may be one of the first celebrities who created a fashion empire under her name. A total rags to riches story, but with a fairy tale twist. Before she invented her famous wrap dress, she was an it-girl princess living in New York City and married to Prince Egon of Furstenberg (<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">a German royalty</span></i>.) And it wasn't after that title of princess did she start up her fashion, home, and beauty line (<i>yes, make-up!</i>) among many other endeavors. And f</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">or this spring season's ad campaign, DVF launched a campaign that's very true to the woman that is Diane Von Furstenberg. The theme of the campaign is "<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">BE THE WOMAN YOU WANT TO BE.</span></b>" In the campaign, a model wears a DVF floral dress and a mirror strapped across her face, making her nameless and faceless, but at the same time reflects the woman looking at the clothes. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to decipher the implications of this ad campaign, especially with the help of the said slogan. I personally feel as if the message has a double meaning. Instead of putting the face of some famous supermodel a la' Kate Moss or Karlie Kloss, DVF went for a reflective approach, letting their consumers picture themselves in the clothes and the woman they want to be in life. Fashion is an expression of individuality and personal style, so the decision is ultimately given to the consumer as to how they see themselves in the clothes and how they like to perceived by the world with or without the dress. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I'm already a huge fan of Diane's clothes and the powerful and intelligent woman that she is, and hopefully this compelling ad campaign for the spring 2012 season will entice and encourage women to see what she is all about. What do you make of the ad campaign? </span></div>
