Crushing on Copper

I'm totally crushing on copper as a new addition to the already fabulous metallics. Here's what I've been wearing for a few months and some sights of the trend. If you want to bring it into the beauty realm Lancome makes a beautiful copper liquid liner called ICEDCAROB-now discontinued but available on eBay. Who says red heads don't have more fun?
Rita Zimerman whose work I saw at Art Basel Miami this winter is a collage genius.

Alexandra Owen Video Fall 2010-11

Straight from Alexandra's Cam
Thanks to a brilliant tip from Syl Tang of Hip Guide via my talented fashion stylist friend Rene Garza I got a chance to be one of the first in New York city to view Alexandra Owen's new collection. She has been selling and showing her line in New Zealand for 12 years and this is her inaugural showing in the big apple. All the fashion heavy weights such as Linda Fargo of Bergdorfs, a stylist from Harper's Bazaar, and a few from Elle Magazine saw the line on the same day as us. So good things are sure to come for this architectural line. Enjoy this video in which the designer Alexandra Owen shows us some key pieces in the line.

So much to love from Alexandra Owen

I'm so excited to share with you my top picks from Alexandra Owen's line. It's rare that a new talent emerges on the New York scene that blows me out of the water (and even before the official Amex Mercedes Benz Fashion starts). The fabulous Syl Tang of Hip Guide who has seen it all fashion wise (the good, the so so, and the BAAAD) invited us to the private showing in Hotel 41.
I'm not one to fall in love with a black dress but...If you were going to buy one this would be it. So versatile, sophisticated, and perfect for a wide range of ages.

What's stopping you from being drop dead gorgeous in this rusty bronze sequin necklace/shawl? Now that glittery things are being shown am and pm it's a must.

Showing you both the front and the back of this reversible dress so that means once you want a new dress flip it and voila a new look. Washable silk that goes in the washing machine? Perfect for these times. Brilliant and perfect for day to night. I would live in it and love every silky sec.

I'm loving her draping details. Also very flattering to the bust.
An a-line architectural coat 'the elizabeth' with asymmetrical seam details juxtaposed with the soft curls of the neck is unique mix. (shown with another jacket underneath)

So if you want to be able to buy this line in the US, send a tweet to @bergdorfs. Tell them we sent you!
