MAJOR NEWS: Isabel Marant to H&M

In case you were living under a rock yesterday, here's some collab news that made the fashion world go nuts. Set every alarm you have for November 13, it's going to be major.

More Reasons To Love Her: Rebecca Minkoff

Rebecca Minkoff is arguably everywhere these days and just when I'm opining her saturation, I see another great look like this and I shut my mouth and remember why I love her anew. She's really got the goods. Putting together texture like the best in the game, she takes streetwear style to the next level, making it cool to wear downtown duds uptown, bringing a bit of ladylike spin (short hemline and peplum detailing) to a moto jacket and neet-it-now strappy sandal.

Ladylike Meets Boy

No matter how hard I try, I'm still trying to saddle the divide between tailored menswear dressing and a few ladylike details that I think every woman needs. I can't commit to floral dresses and bows, but I also can't wear blazers and trouser cut denim every day either. This is a perfect go-between. The juxtaposition of the deconstructed denim and the ladylike boucle jacket works perfectly being that they're so different. One is dressed up, one so dressed down that they work quite well together for everyday and let you still be a little bit of both.

Best Of Resort: Misha Nonoo

The resort season is one that to me has a bit of a split personality. It's part based on winter weather and the rest is left for those tropical getaways that you long for during those long spells of freezing temps. So how to create a collection that caters to both? I love the way these sheer panels and insets seems to do just that in these designs by Misha Nonoo. Matching richer knits with peekaboo detailing, you've got the best of both worlds and fabrics to wear no matter where winter takes you.

A New Fave: The Perfect Tee

I consider myself to be on the constant shirt for the perfect t-shirt. I seem to go through mine as if they're disposable, some get holes, most get stained and almost all will eventually get snagged. I spend most of my time shopping pondering how much is too much to pay for a t-shirt and while this one here from ATM Anthony Thomas Melillo is on the steeper side, its luxe jersey feel givestakes it day to night. I can tuck it into high-waisted jeans or pair with skinnies and a heel for night. Plus, it's got such a nice feel, it'll never wrinkle. Score.

New Luxe Leather

I have yet to own a leather jacket that I actually wear and love but I've discovered a new label that may just be what I've been looking for all this time. Equal parts femme and edgy, Anine Bing puts grommets, studs and other beautiful details on her supersoft leather pieces (jackets, boots, leather leggings, etc.) to keep them cool while giving them some personality. The result are designs that standout apart from the heap of moto jackets and biker boots in the market.

How To: Transition Shorts

I'm hardly a shorts person but I imagine if I were, this would be how I'd wear them during these June gloom days. The overcast skies in the morning call for some booties and an oversized scarf paired with a slouchy top that counteracts the thigh-grazing hemline. As the weather warms up in the afternoon, you can shed the layers for something that looks sports appropriate.
