Happy Toking and remember to dress is human, to smoke divine.

1. Quit this: Birkenstocks A mandal by any other name would look as bad.

Hit this: Espadrilles An Hermès espadrille may not be ideal for Ultimate Frisbee in the quad, but it's more than appropriate for quick munchie runs.

2. Quit this: Tie-Dye Psychedelia  gave us many things, none of them as enduring or as tacky as tie-dye.

Hit this: Bold prints Pucci prints are as trippy as they come so you can easily get lost staring into them for hours on end.

3. Quit this: Hemp A durable and versatile fabric, there are more chic ways to green your wardrobe, especially without using your green.

Hit this: Organic fabrics If you're all about sustainability and that crap, H&M's Conscious Collection is easy on the environment and on your wallet.

4. Quit this: Puka shell necklaces Ah, the puka shell necklace, or as I like to think of it, shorthand for letting everyone know you're a complete tool.

Hit this: Statement jewelry A statement necklace says something completely different, like "I'm high as a kite right now and I'm going to dress like it."

5. Quit this: Ponchos If you've been indulging a little too much in the late night Taco Bell, then by all means, drape an unflattering carpet over yourself.

Hit this: Capes However, a cape like this Alexander McQueen number is a fashionable alternative to the poncho but on the other hand, so is anything else.

6. Quit this: Board shorts Board shorts are appropriate on only one occasion, and that is on a surf board. Any other time is just an insult to surfers everywhere.

Hit this: Suit shorts Tom Ford doesn't think men should wear shorts at all, but Thom Browne doesn't expect you to play hacky sack in a full-on pant during those hot summer months.

7. Quit this: Hawaiian shirts Hawaiian shirts are appropriate on only one occasion, and that is on Charlie Sheen. Any other time is just an insult to Charlie Sheen...which is kind of all right.

Hit this: Paisley shirts Odds are you won't need much to cheer you up this 420, but paisley, like this Michael Kors top, can add a dash of curlicued sunshine to anyone's day.

8. Quit this: Baggy jeans "So okay, I don't want to be a traitor to my generation and all but I don't get how guys dress today. I mean, come on, it looks like they just fell out of bed and put on some baggy pants and take their greasy hair - ew - and cover it up with a backwards cap and like, we're expected to swoon? I don't think so." -- Cher Horowitz

Hit this: Harem pants A harem pant gives you the same freeballin' feeling as a pair of slouchy Levi's hanging off your upper thighs and -- bonus points -- the drop-crotch acts as a great weed table if nothing else is around.

9. Quit this: American Eagle For most of us, middle school is over and so is the Eagle.

Hit this: American Apparel Going from the Eagle to the Apparel, though, is not so much a show of growth so much as a show of wanting to get laid. But even stoners need to slut it up sometimes.

10. Quit this: Beanies A beanie is like the stoner equivalent of the little black dress. And though I would deign to ask any pothead worth his or her reefer to abandon their LBD...

Hit this: Newsboys A newsboy cap adds a certain air of jauntiness and charm. I mean, who would you rather get high with, beanie boy or Brad Pitt? Though the beanie guy looks baked as all get out.

It means you should try to beat me to it. Because I will drunkenly destroy it with [Daphne] Guinness. So… race you to Sense of Fashion to see who gets the St. Patrick’s Pucci first.

I just hope there’s a pot of gold at the end of your Double Rainbow. This shamrock shift is $780.

BCBGMAXAZRIA “Britte” Tribal Print Skirt $71 – Short, tight and tribal. What’s not to love about this cute, high-waisted number?

- André Leon Talley ranks Beyoncé in Emilio Pucci as his best dressed from the Met Gala last night, though he modestly put himself at the lowly position at #12 when in reality he was the only lady to really turn it out on that carpet. [Vogue]

- Livia Firth, wife of this year’s Best Actor Oscar winner Colin Firth, had a meeting in the ladies room at the Met Ball with Stella McCartney, Lauren Hutton, Yoko Ono, Salma Hayek, Rihanna and Hilary Alexander and was gracious enough to tweet pics of it. [Refinery29]

- Mert & Marcus by Mert & Marcus. [Fashion Gone Rogue]

- John Galliano fired his lawyer, Stephane Zerbib over “apparent irregularities in respect of his firms administration of Galliano’s financial affairs over a number of years.” Sounds like someone had their hand in the couture cookie jar. [Vogue UK]

- Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge, also known to commoners as Kate Middleton, wore White Gardenia Petals by Illuminum on her special day, thus ensuring that White Gardenia Petals by Illumnum will sell-out in a matter of minutes. [Grazia]

I love that LeAnn has the balls to wear a dress with this many cutouts to her friends and family wedding brunch. But her body looks amazing and she seems very happy and confident. She would get kicked out of Westminster Abbey for this look, but it’s not too shabby for Malibu.

- Joining La Jolie on the Do-Good Express is great-caped crusader André Leon Talley who describes his efforts thusly: “I do make trips to the Dumpster. And I am proud of that because it’s far from my house. But I make a special effort to go to the Dumpster and put the cardboard with the cardboard, and plastic with the plastics.” Mother Teresa who? [The Cut]

- Supermodels just can’t keep it in their pants these days. And by it I mean their nuptials. Anja Rubik will be the next catwalker to jump the broom and, in typical model fashion, will wear Pucci when she marries longtime boyfriend Sasha Knezevic in July. [Fashionologie]

- The Black Eyed Peas have finally realized what I’ve been saying for years: “My Humps” is a god awful song. [The Boombox]

- Libyan president and noted fashion plate Muammar Gadaffi apparently wants his own exhibit at the Met’s Costume Institute. Muammar Gaddafi: Savage Beauty? [Styleite]

- Dior will debut a few dresses from its upcoming couture and/or Spring 2012 collections at the Cannes Film Festival when French actress Melanie Laurent wears the iconic label to the fest’s opening and closing ceremonies. [Elle]

1. Loveday 31, Astoria
Owner and curator Ivona Bilicic knows her stuff – she used to be a buyer at famous rip-off Manhattan vintage store Screaming Mimi’s. But the merchandise at Loveday 31 is far from overpriced and much more carefully selected. Eccentric metallic shirts from the 80s share a rack with silk Givenchy shirts and Prada dresses. Uniquely shaped vintage bags are shown among locally designed jewelry and antique brooches. I recently bought a black, intricately knit shirt with metallic silver threads and 7-inch long fringe for $40.

2. Beacon’s Closet, Williamsburg & Park Slope
Perhaps the most well-known local Brooklyn thrift store chain, Beacon’s Closet has something for everyone. Both locations have their fine points: the more-crowded Williamsburg store has about four times the merchandise ranging from beat-up tees to Pucci pumps while the slightly more refined selection at Park Slope requires less digging and waiting. Some of my best buys include an $18 Marc by Marc Jacobs sweater and $18 brand new Betseyville shoes.

3. Buffalo Exchange, Williamsburg
You won’t find a ton of vintage merchandise at Buffalo Exchange, but you might come across some cool new digs along the way. Designer denim for men and women usually costs less than $20 and a brand new chunky necklace will set you back about $8. There are great vintage finds too, like a pair of Marc Jacobs sandals I bought for $24 a couple years ago.

4. Housing Works, Upper East Side
Where do all of the wealthy UES women take their Ferragamos and Pradas when they don’t want them any more? Housing Works, of course. In my opinion, this location is the best of the 10 retail stores around the city. There aren’t a million downtown vintage hunters in your face, and the merchandise comes straight from Park and Madison Avenues. It also has the best vintage jewelry selection -  I have at least a dozen pieces from my summer living in the same neighborhood.

5. Monk Vintage, Williamsburg
Where can you buy a rainbow striped bow tie, cummerbund and pocket square matching set? Monk Vintage in Brooklyn has about 10 for you to choose from. From the tutus suspended from the ceiling to mounds of vintage jewelry, you will find super fun and unique vintage pieces here. Dresses run from around $25 – $40 while a full suit will cost you about $100. Everything is in pretty good condition and the store is small, so you won’t spend hours looking for an outfit. The peach Polo Ralph Lauren Western shirt I got for $35 is still one of my favorites.

6. Goodwill, Chelsea
Of all the Goodwills in the city, why this one? Are the workers nicer? Absolutely not, but the selection is all that. This fairly new outlet isn’t too crowded, but it is fairly organized. If you’re familiar with Goodwill, expect all of the same prices and merchandise categories. Last week, I found a leather Coach computer bag in good condition for $20.

7. Vintage Thrift, Gramercy
From Manolos to mink throw pillows, this store literally has everything. You can get a stack of records with your dining room table and Italian designer ties with a retro KitchenAid mixer. Not only has Vintage Thrift been named Zagat’s #1 NYC thrift store four years in a row, profits go to The United Jewish Council of the East Side.

8. Viceversa, Williamsburg
Maybe the most overlooked Williamsburg thrift store, Viceversa is definitely worth your time. Stocked with equal parts men’s and women’s apparel, you can find everything from red cowboy boots to sequined muumuus. Prices here are dynamite – you can snag a fur coat for as little as $40. I bought an 80s rainbow sequin dress for $20 last year; I recently saw the same exact dress on Nasty Gal retailing for more than $200.

9. The Antiques Garage, Chelsea
Lauren from Corvus Noir introduced me to The Antiques Garage last summer when I interviewed her for FashionIndie. This place is insane. From 9 am – 5 pm every Saturday and Sunday, you can walk through this concrete jungle of every antique imaginable. It can be a little overwhelming, so take it slow – one table at a time. I bought a gorgeous leather, color-block bag with a chain strap for $10 the last time I was there.

10. No Relation Vintage, East Village
Nestled among the dozens of nail salons and pizzerias on First Avenue, No Relation Vintage is a rare gem. Little nooks throughout the store hold specifics like shoes or sundresses while scarves sit in a basket by the register, waiting to be impulsed purchased. In true East Village fashion, you won’t find a shortage of leather jackets or distressed band tees. Many a silk scarf from this old school thrift store hangs in my apartment.

Did I miss anything? What is your favorite NYC thrift store?

This event was to showcase the fall product lines for Acqua di Parma, Givenchy, Guerlain, Kenzo, and Pucci. There was a great selection of cosmetics and fragrances, not to mention, an incredible gift bag. Here is a recap of the fragrances that will be available this fall.

Acqua di Parma
The Colonia Powder Soap
Colonia, the signature fragrance is the definition of the Italian art of living well. The fragrance is fresh and citrusy and incorporates the values of timelessness and refinement. New this fall will be the Colonia Powder Soap. It contains a unique formula of pulverized soap combined with a delightful softening talc powder as well as rice starch, to keep hands feeling clean, fresh and silky smooth, while maintaining the original scent.
The Colonia Powder Soap 120gr/4oz will retail for $36 and will be available starting in October at select locations within Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue and Barneys stores.

  Colonia ESSENZA
This will be the highest quality cologne from Acqua di Parma. Like the signature fragrance, it incorporates the essential values of timelessness and refinement. This new fragrance highlights the essence of the original Colonia fragrance. The more recognizable notes and accords that represent the “soul” of Colonia are boosted and enriched using the highest quality ingredients. This cent is a citrus woody creation. It infuses citrus, aromatic and floral freshness, and sensual wood.
Colonia ESSENZA will launch world wide August 13, and will be available in the USA at select specialty stores including: Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bergdorf Goodman, Barneys New York, and Sephora.com

Pucci
The newest indulgence from Emilio Pucci fragrances introduces the evolution of the Pucci woman. The newest fragrance from Pucci is miss Pucci. This fragrance embodies the style of the “Pucci girl.” She is colorful, youthful, fresh, and seductive. She ahs an air of freedom while still maintaining sophistication and beauty. Always naturally chic, she exudes femininity and energy. This fragrance is a sparkling floral and musky fragrance, composed by Francois Demachy, Christine Nagel, and Benoit Lopouza.

The bottle, designed by Ora Ito, is based on the small oval motif that often recurs in Pucci prints. The designer imagined “an evolutive, ergonomic and flowing packaged box, whose central point is an open window to the world…a kaleidoscopic, stained-glass window constantly playing with light.” Ribbons of coral, rose and orange make the miss Pucci bottle come to life, evoking the playful feel of the fragrance.

This fragrance will be available August 2010 for $89 (75ml), $74 (50ml), and $53 (30ml) at Sephora, Sephora.com, and Pucci boutiques nationwide.

Kenzo
Flower by Kenzo
This is a classic floral powdery fragrance and the power of a fragile, singular flower. It comes in an eco-friendly refillable bottle, which allows the consumer to reduce waste by simply unscrewing the pump and using the eco-friendly pouch to refill when the scent runs out. The refill itself is an easy to use 100ml plastic pouch that retails for $78. The cost is 15% less than buying a totally new bottle. $56 (30ml), $72 (50ml), and $92 (100ml)

KenzoHomme Woody Eau De Toilette
This fragrance is a lively and deep aromatic woody fragrance with an intense vibrant trail. The energy of fresh, fusing leaves, mint and basil, mingles with the power of woody notes of vetiver and Atlas cedar. The fragrance of a free spirit who draws his strength from nature, between sky and earth. Kenzo Homme is packaged in a bamboo bottles and comes in the matte brown of tree barks. It is engraved with vibrant leaves and will launch August 2010. $54 (50ml) $72 (100ml)

Once Upon A Time, Kenzo
This year, Kenzo celebrates is anniversary with 2 new limited editions. A patchwork of flower print, faithful to Kenzo inspirations. Kenzo, EDT for Woman, Kenzo, EDT for Man. For him, a woody eau de toilette fresh and intense, the character of a classic; nutmeg and vetiver, with a spicy trail of ginger and coriander $72 (100ml). For her, a floral eau de toilette, woody and colorful. A flower explosion; peony and freesia, printed on a voluptuous bottom notes of sandalwood and musk $72 (100ml). These fragrances are Kenzo USA exclusive, available October 2010.

Guerlain

Shalimar Eau de Parfum- A New Design (Rock Royalty meets the imperial House)

Guerlain took an edgy approach with their new bottle design for their classic fragrance Shalimar. The bottle was designed by Jade Jagger, daughter of rock icon Mick Jagger. She is ‘modern glamour.’ She revisits Shalimar with respect for its history, giving it the shape of a basin and a base reminiscent of its early years.  Her rendition is a bottle sculpture with curves that are soft, full, and extremely sensual. She carves the upper part of the cap into a fan and it is a jewel-like stopper which is an elegant grey blue. She keeps the rock n roll edge with a leather midnight blue ribbon.

The newly designed Shalimar Eau de Parfum will be available September 2010 at select locations of Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdales, Macy’s, and Bergdorf Goodman. It will also be available at Saks.com and NeimanMarcus.com $72 (30ml) $95 (50ml) and $123 (90ml).

A few weeks ago we introduced you to an amazing new online store from Revolve called Forward. Well Forward has decided to take it back to the good old days by offering some really cool vintage clothes from really cool vintage brands. Forward is hosting vintage gear from designers like YSL, Pucci, Burberry and Oscar de la Renta. Head over to Forward and check it out.

It’s that time of year again when silk scarves become wool and bare legs are covered with tights. The hours of sunlight in a single day a about half of what they were 4 months ago. But the cold weather doesn’t have to mean the end of fashion. Nothing hurts more while walking in frigid weather than bare ears. Lately, I’ve been wearing oversized headphones to stay warm because multi-tasking is totally my thing. But there are some seriously cute earmuffs out there to keep you feeling warm and looking darling.

I would rather walk the snow and ice covered streets of New York barefoot then wear either of these awful boots. Honestly, I don’t care if I get frost bite and have to get my feet amputated, you will never catch me in primary color moon boots (even if they are Pucci…I’m no label whore) or velcro “running boots.” The last time I saw those was at Wal-Mart in 1995. If you’re a native New Yorker, suck it up, throw on the wool socks and actually wear fashionable boots. If you’re not a native and you just happen to be working some rinky-dink Wall St. job, quit missing your flip-flops and do the same. 

Thanks for the photos NYLON!

I love the 60s. If I had my way, I would be at my prime in ’63, jet-setting between London and New York while partying and wearing psychedelic prints and over-the-knee boots. I of course love the revival of the bright, patterned minidress, and Pucci knows it better than anyone else. These are both Pucci dresses, but one is worn well and the other looks a mess. Nicole Ricci did it right. Natural wavy locks, large sunglasses and simple mary-jane heels work well with the busy pattern. But Christina Aguilera is a different story. Love the dress but the bangs are too thin, her lipstick looks radioactive and her eyes are much too stark for such a busy outfit. She appears to be attending the Wives of Circus Clowns Club’s annual banquet. Tone it down woman, and stick to your pin-up girl aesthetic.

With more rumors than an episode of Gossip Girl about who will be Pucci’s new designer, we call rest easy now, because Pucci has decided to go ahead with Peter Dundas. With Matthew Williamson’s contract ending at the conclusion of next month, Pucci wants Dundas to head the design team in their future collections. Williamson has left to work on his own line, and will be launching a meatpacking boutique in the months to come.

Thanks NY Mag.

Matthew Williamson is rumored to be leaving Pucci to focus on his own line when his contract ends this fall. Norwegian designer Peter Dundas is said to replace him. Dumas designed for Emanuel Ungaro and is currently designing for French furrier Revillon. Dundas told WWD, “I’m very happy at Revillon,” but would not comment further. Pucci wouldn’t comment either.

We will keep you updated. 

Thanks NY Mag
