Fashion for the Regular Folk.

Do you want to know why I love Marcus Wainwright and David Neville of Rag and Bone? First, because they are nice, ordinary married guys with tots in tow. Not drama queens. Not sunglassed, gloved vampires. Second, because they’re not prone to such vitriol as that of Dior’s most famous former Musketee

Polka Dot Perfection

Marc Jacobs’ collection at NYFW channeled something of a post-apocalyptic “The House of Mirth” what with all those tiny, constraining hats, high collars, dark booties and long, body-skimming skirts. With a predominance of black, white and grey, his collection wasn’t without its share of polka dots,

Top it Off

You’ve seen that Target commercial, right?  A harried mother stares dreamily at a cap and is suddenly transported to some bucolic fall scene with a stand of apple trees, cable sweaters and falling leaves. The motto? “You totally wear hats.” I am myself, a “hat” person. I have quite the collection, i

To face unafraid the plans that we’ve made

You want to know what I’ve been wearing lately? My pajamas. I’ve been wearing them a lot. Take today for example. I woke at 8 and promptly went back to bed at 1 – and slept until 4. I’ve turned down an adjunct teaching position in legal writing. I’ve demurred on a chance to contribute to [...]

Rachel Zoe for QVC.

Normally, I associate QVC with the likes of “Quacker Factory” or Hummel figurines, but my favorite Hollywood stylist has gone Ba-Nah-Nahs with her new collection for QVC. Rachel Zoe has entered the 2nd year of her merchandise line, with a collection launched this year and last during New York fashio

Work.

WRONG. Just so wrong. Also WRONG. Where did 20th Century Fox find all those blazers?? When I started in advertising after a stint in litigation, my friend Susan said, “I had a hard time believing you were a lawyer. You dressed WAY too cool.” This is probably because I’ve never been the boxy black su
