FOR A FRESH LOOK NOW—
Pair contemporary classics with today’s trends! Spring’s sweet and frosty chromatic concoctions are delectable— especially if your eyes are cool blue or green, your hair is fair & your skin has a warm gold tone…

In other words, Spring is your thing, no matter what!

In which case the colors Hyacinth, Mint, Tangerine, Daffodil, Turquoise, and Coral will be forever flattering as the favored flavors for your personal palette. You can use them eternally, on the daily, year round. With your cool blue or green eyes, fair hair, and warm tone skin, think of them as your perfect palette cleansers. Frame your face with them and you’ll never be washed out or overpowered…

Spring’s frosty palette is a universal perennial pick-me-up!

What if your natural coloring is best enhanced by colors of another season? You may be an autumn, a la Blair Waldorf, perhaps? For you, Spring fashion is a blooming bevy of accessories and accent pieces you can pick and choose from— and style with— as needed, to freshen up…

Play it fresh and light till the mercury rises!

Blood Orange and Mint Green are on the Spring 2013 color radar. But before you commit to laying out cash or your credit card, evaluate the wear and tear factor. A few trendy fillers in these designer hues are a safe bet for your wallet, and are guaranteed to keep your look updated, fresh, clean, and in the swing of Spring 2013!

NEXT UP—

Summer’s colors in the hot seat!
Until then…

XOXOE!

AN AFRICAN QUEEN IN THE MAKING!

I am absolutely loving Larissa Loughlin (played astutely by Freema Agyeman @FreemaOfficial) in this #Vintage #Treasure #Top! It’s such a royal eye-full I don’t know where to begin! It’s a crew neck, long sleeve black top with a spectrum of sequins in blue, lilac, mint, and rose gold with bird and flower emblems! A totally fantastic find unearthed by my team, probably from Cleopatra’s heirlooms. I mean, from afar she has the aura of an Egyptian queen… And her Phillip Lim butterly and flower pants accent it beautifully with touches of black, aqua, periwinkle, violet and plum!

Are you loving her, too? See the inspiration for Larissa’s style on my Pinterest!

Hear more about Larissa’s regal beginning in “Kiss Yesterday Goodbye” The Carrie Diaries on The CW.

XOXOE!

THE BIRTH OF “THE CLEAVAGE RHOMBUS”

“Who needs accessories when you have an amazing Couture cut out tuxedo by Maxime Simoens?! Serena is no nonsense in this episode, so I wanted her formal wear to be fierce, severe, and traffic-stopping,” Daman explains. “New York Magazine actually called me the inventor of the “Cleavage Rhombus” for this inspired couture creation. So be it! I wanted her looking FIERCE!”

“Breathtaking by the fountain, I wanted our gang to embrace a soft Degas inspired palette.

This Couture Zuhair Murad fit the bill! To give the dress an airier feel and show off S’s killer gams, we actually shortened the the floor length grey under-skirt to a mini!”

The high hem with a low train is what we call Hi-Lo! It’s one of the trends I recommend for Prom 2013.

The night I hosted Fashion’s Night Out with Vera Wang in her NYC Soho boutique I had the pleasure of meeting jewelry designer Magdalena Stokalska. Vera and I each invited a handful of our respective Twitter followers, and Magda was among those on my list, chosen to join in the festivities on that nights special occasion. One thing led to another and we received sample pieces from Magda’s jewelry collection. Goes to show you, if you’re open to new possibilities, expanding your horizons, and you’re prepared… you can go just about anywhere you want to go.

True fashionistas will see how the vision of The Carrie Diaries 80s fashion is deeply embedded in the cultural fabric of the 80s. To prepare my team for what was coming, I created this series to describe what I felt would be the most important aspects of 80′s fashion to include in The Carrie Diaries. Most people watching The Carrie Diaries were born in the 90s. And I think most people in the cast were born in the 90s too for that matter! So, I made sure to use a combination of modern and vintage images and fashions, and keep a high-low mix of street wear, runway, couture, and mass market. I focused on the trends I could see being viable options and sustainable over the duration of hopefully many continuous seasons.

There were so many fashion inspirations in the 80s. Some of them were geographic, some of them were cultural, some retro, some neo. It was a fabulous kaleidoscopic influx of global proportions in a way that had never happened before.

XOXOE!
