STYLE ICON

I was inspired by my karaoke choice from last night. My unlikely style icon mid month is Kim Carnes. OK ya, she kinda looks like Debbie Harry but she has a way more minimalist/south western androgynous sensibility to her pieces and she loves menswear, which makes me love her. She was wearing pretty typical looks of the 80's but I love that she didn't load up on the makeup and tease the shit out of her hair. Basically, she wasn't a slave to the 80's take over of out of control looks. She infused her own personal style into it.

I am going to try and do a style icon once a month. stay tuned for April, its going to be a good one!

SPRING SHOE- YOU WILL BE MINE!

Have you ever seen such a beautiful spring/summer sandal? I doubt it. The brand is toffel relaunched as Hasbeens from Sweden. The only two places in the city to get them are Imelda on the Ronces and Chasse Garde . Let the saving begin!

PLAID MAGAZINE

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of styling a shoot for a new online magazine called Plaid Magazine . Here are some behind the scenes photos from the day. The concept was Neutrals and Neons, a huge trend for Spring. Make sure to check out the shoot called bright lights, big city.

Happy Lady

Wow, have you ever seen anyone look so beautiful!! I'm not into copper tops but I might have to make an exception with Christina "I wish I had asked her for her measurements when I was stalking her at the AGO a few months ago" Hendricks.

I will be picking up the March issue of New York magazine.

LEE MCQUEEN

Needless to say, I'm still very shocked about the suicide of Alexander McQueen. I'm not going to go on about how prolific his work was because everybody knows what a genius he was. Lets just enjoy some of his past runway shows from the past few seasons. I was going to round up a bunch of photos but I think this designers work is beyond that and to truly understand his art and what he stood for you have to watch it. When asked what runway show I would like to attend I always said Alexander McQueen, it breaks my heart to know that will never happen.

JOAN CRAWFORD VS. CG

LAST WEEK A GENTLEMEN FROM MY WORK SAID I REMINDED HIM OF JOAN CRAWFORD IN MY FUR! GOSH DARN IT RICK, NOW YOU'VE GONE AND MADE ME BLUSH! THE SWEETEST COMPLIMENT A GAL CAN GET!

STYLE ICON MERYL STREEP

IN 1979 SHE ILLUMINATED THE SCREEN IN TWO FILMS, KRAMER VS. KRAMER AND MANHATTAN. I'M GOING TO DO A SHOOT ONE DAY AS A HOMAGE TO THIS WOMEN'S LATE 70'S STYLE. ITS SORT OF A MORE FEMININE APPROACH TO DIANE KEATON'S STYLE IN ANNIE HALL, BUT LESS MENSWEAR AND MORE BURBERRY!
