Boutique Critique:: Court: Look 2

Edited by Jessica Lapidos

This Court room is a treasure trove of layers. Especially with the majority of pieces being shades of black and white, the garments are merchandised to live with one another, complementing and interchanging. I clothe myself by the philosophy of layering, so to have selected a dress, a single solitary layer of clothing for Look Two, you know this dress must be super fascinating.

Boutique Critique:: Court: Look 1

Edited by Jessica Lapidos

Boutique Critique was taken to Court. I can’t get into the specifics of the arrest, but I will fiercely deny any allegations that it involved Rebecca Black and a finely sharpened object last Friday… Well, the trial ensues upon the lacquered black floor of the Court room, with a film noir NY color palette and western-leaning-California vibes; highly suspect if you ask me. Reimagined t-shirts of many weights and structures intersperse silken black dresses, leathers, sweaters and the occasional floor length chiffon. Though the case appeared to be rather black and white, shades of gray and few jumping hues peeked through as evidence of the brighter buying choices. The jury has been out for the whole week, and they want more proof. Over the course of this week, come sit in on the trial, and help us reach a final verdict.

Our very own Samantha Lim sat down with What Not to Wear’s Clinton Kelly to discuss three trends this summer that every woman can incorporate into her own wardrobe as well as Macy’s Million Dollar Makeover contest.

How to Tie a Turban in a Minute

Edited by Jessica Lapidos

The abundance of both traditional and stylized turbans in existence have fallen into fashion as of late, as you may be aware. I’ve been wrapping my cashmere scarf ’round my head all fall and winter long like this. Based originally out of necessity to shelter my ears from the cold, and the terrible noise I was subjected to at Death By Audio in Williamsburg on Halloween the night of my turban epiphany, I grew to adore its versatility and insta-chic effect. Now with Spring so close, I’m adapting my personal turban-tying method to lighter materials: silk, chiffon and the traditional cotton. Watch my instructional video for a way to turn just about any scarf into a fabulous turban. Then check the authentic Indian, African and other international lessons on how to master the real shebang.

Valentino Goes Long

Edited by Jessica Lapidos

Credit as you may Anne Hathaway, Angelina Jolie and Florence Welch and her machine, for the resurgence in long-sleeved gowns. This fashion month, however, few did it better than Valentino in his ready-to-wear collection. Demure, sheer infused and regal, these pieces make modesty sensually sexy.
