It was real.
…With two nannies and a team of 20?!?
In it’s recent August issue, Vogue asks this rhetorical question, ignoring the obvi, and instead positioning its ubiquitous cover girl, Ms. Sarah Jessica Parker, as the modern woman who does it all and has it all. Cue the side eye!
Eeek! My sister in style, Shala Monroque (a.k.a. “Shals”), is the proverbial centerfold in NET-A-PORTER’s weekly online mag and I couldn’t be more thrilled!!!
Fiona Apple reigned in the ’90s…Cate Blanchett took the title in the early ’00s…but Tilda Swinton? Tilda takes the cake!

A t-shirt is simply not a t-shirt these days, at least not in my wardrobe.
A perfectly crafted pullover can complete my life, let alone an ensemble, so I often don’t skimp on this essential layering piece. I look for delicacy (thin as h*ll), texture (pilling is perhaps the swan song for a tee), and length (proportions are key), as I like them to affect an air of ease, comfort, and effortless style.

| YEEZY in Louis V, S/S/ 2012 |
Vogue Japan E.I.C./my style spiritual leader, Anna dello Russo, took to her own blog today and re-imagined K.West in the Top 10 looks from Men’s Fashion Week. I won’t lie: the woman was pretty much spot on.
I mean, realistically, if anyone is going to rock “mandals” correctly (see above), it would most likely be Yeezy.
