Bonnaroo Street Chic: Yellow Denim Shorts and Jean Jacket
Another advantage of denim shorts dyed in colors other than blue: then you can pair them with a plain jean jacket, as with these cute yellow cut-off shorts. Love how she accessorizes for a festival with a headband and feather earrings, too.
Zanna Roberts Rassi at the Parsons MFA Exhibit
Marie Claire editor Zanna Roberts Rassi arrived at Monday’s Parsons MFA exhibit looking just as chic as she does during fashion week. We’ve been seeing bright pants on a lot of trendsetters now, but what makes her look particularly cool is how she pairs these Christopher Kane for J Brand neon-bright yellow jeans with a classic military drab jacket. She’s customized the jeans by tucking the flared leg into her lace-up boots. Love it.
Taylor Tomasi Hill in Black and White Stripes
Bill Cunningham’s column this weekend reminded me of this photo from the Louis Vuitton show – Taylor Tomasi Hill in graphic black and white stripe pants. It’s a particularly daring look made even more so with a black leather corset under that jacket. Black and white is perfect for this time of year, when we’re finally starting to transition to the all white looks of summer.
Striped Jacket, Outside Max Mara
One advantage of the unseasonably warm weather this spring: New Yorkers actually have a chance to wear jackets, not segue immediately from coats to tank tops. This season there’s a great variety of luxe jackets out there in a mix of materials and colors, like this one with striped sleeves and lining and leather piping outside the Max Mara show in Milan.
Tilda Swinton at Haider Ackermann
Even the most jaded fashion show regulars have been literally atwitter about the presence of actress Tilda Swinton at Paris fashion week. She emerged from the Haider Ackermann show yesterday in a beautifully tailored purple silk jacket and emerald green silk pants and posed for us. Very cool.
Caroline Issa at Marni
Loved this houndstooth jacket and top and neon red pants on Caroline Issa at Marni. If you ever want to know what the fashion world is up to at any given moment, follow her entertaining feed on Twitter.
Leaf Greener in Blue and Red
Love the superhero-bright colors on Leaf Greener of ELLE China. The pom pom hat and kitty cat bag makes the look even more playful.
Label to Watch: Monika Chiang
At a press preview yesterday, we got a look at this new designer’s spring collection. Formerly focused just on accessories, Monika Chiang has branched out into sportswear, and the results are luxe and wearable.
Another reason to keep an eye on her: She’s opening not just one but two stand alone stores, one that just launched on Robertson Boulevard in LA, the other opening this spring on Prince Street in Soho. If this sounds like an unusually high capital expenditure for a new designer, keep in mind that she’s also the girlfriend of Chris Burch, ex-husband of Tory and powerhouse behind the rapidly expanding J. Christopher Capital LLC, the force behind several new stores opening in Nolita and Soho, including C. Wonder. (more…)
Elisa Nalin at Chanel
Stylist Elisa Nalin has really raised the bar for street style with her colorful, individualistic outfits. On this first cool day of Paris fashion week, she wore a deconstructed trench with arms made of pinstriped shirting to the Chanel show.
