Inside the NEW Anna Sui NYC Flagship Shop and Romantica Fragrance Launch

Anna3After 23 years, Anna Sui moved her New York City flagship boutique from its residence at 113 Greene Street to 484 Broome St. Sui opened shop in the ’90s long before Soho was the shopping mecca it’s become today and thanks to early adopters like herself made the area one of NYC’s best attractions. After two decades in the original location the lease was up and it was time for a change (for the better).

According to Sui, “all the cooler shops are moving south”. The new location matches that cool-girl vibe while aligning with the designer’s unique sensibility and aesthetic: lavender walls with black and white vintage wallpaper, red-stained floor, Tiffany lamps, rock posters, Victorian flea-market furniture festooned with carved roses, painted glossy black and upholstered in purple velvet.

The event also celebrated the launch of her new book, Home.

Through Spring 2016, the Gap x ED collection and campaign will focus on empowering girls to feel pride for the very things that make them different, encouraging them to be exactly who they are. Talk about Girl Power!Screen Shot 2015-08-21 at 1.53.26 PM (700x526)

Furthering the empowerment message, social media plays a crucial role in the campaign. Using the hashtag #heyworld followed by a name, a girl’s friend, mother, father or mentor can issue a call to action for social messages of encouragement and love to any girl in need of positive support, cheering her on through the power of positive words.

The collection of clothing for girls, boy and a small assortment for adult launched globally in select Gap stores and gap.com.

Katy Perry, Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid Stun at Harper’s Bazaar Icons Event

Katy Perry performs at Harper's Bazaar Icons event Last night was something out of a dream. I joined COVERGIRL for the 2nd annual Harper’s Bazzar Icons event at the Plaza Hotel. Hosted by Carine Roitfeld and Jean-Paul Goude at the Plaza Hotel, the evening honored all of the icons featured in the September issue.

We then headed downstairs to the ballroom for the cocktail party which included an imaginative short video featuring a behind-the-scenes look at the Icon’s photoshoot.

Rumors before the party had circulated that Katy Perry would be performing at the event, which all proved to be true. Not only was she included in the spread, she’s also on the cover of the September issue.

It was an incredible performance and evening of fashion, music and epic beauty. I’ve literally never seen so many beautiful people in one room. I also could not stop starring at the beauty that is Kendall Jenner, Gigi and Bella Hadid. The next generation of icons were all in tow.

Fanny packs and pineapples

pandora_serpentIf there’s one thing that rivals my beauty hoarding, it’s my accessories closet. I’ve added some new items into my collection including my first Molly Shaheen fanny pack. The designer specializes in super cool belted bags including my newest addition, the Scaled Stone Pouch Leather Fanny Pack.

Dr. Martens Takes a Buffalo Stance

You know that song Buffalo Stance by Neneh Cherry? Me too. And I’ve listed to it a million times having no idea what a Buffalo Stance was — I just assumed it was some type of 90s dance move — when actually it’s a reference to a group of photographers, models, musicians, hair and makeup artists formed by stylist Ray Petri of whom Cherry was apart of.

His & Hers: Young Lovers Tees

Young_Lovers_shirt

James and I have been non-stop this summer that any weekend when we get to just hang out on the waterfront in Long Island City and be normal is the best! Don’t get me wrong it’s been an amazing traveling so much but sometimes it’s nice to just have a minute to ourselves. 

Take me out the the ball game // Tommy Bahama

yankees_baseball_gameUsually, getting me out on a Monday night is next to impossible. However, to make my annual date for National Relaxation Day with Tommy Bahama to enjoy a Yankees game I’ll happily drop everything. And considering Tommy Bahama’s motto is make life one long weekend, I can’t think of a way to adopt the saying then taking in a game while indulging in their signature cocktails.

His and Hers: Timex 80 Watches

timex 80 watchJames and I have an extensive watch collection and one of my favorites from it is the classic Timex 80. I’ll admit we use them more as an accessory then for time keep (most aren’t even set) and I’m so in love with all the colors it women in (and that it’s available in a gold and silver finish). Since I’m always stealing James’ men’s watches we have the pink/silver version for me and the orange/gold version for him (even though I borrow that one all the time). It’s a really fun accessory that gives a nice retro twist to any outfit.
