Stylish First Family-Elect

Barack and his family will have many challenges to face in the next four years, but style won't be one of them. As usual, the First Lady-Elect, Michelle Obama, looked flawless on election night in a Narciso Rodriguez dress from the designer's Spring 2009. Didn't the entire First Family-Elect look absolutely gorgeous?!!

Sex and the City's Patricia Field Launches Destination Style

Sex and the City is released on DVD today, and video stores everywhere will no doubt be clamoring to keep shelves stocked. To coincide with the release, Patricia Field, the costume designer extraordinaire who dressed the ladies, is launching Destination Style New York, a collection of splashy clothes and accessories that are surprisingly affordable (prices range from $35 to $200!), and, even more surprising, available only on HSN!


Some pieces include a studded leather belt (yeah, just like the one Carrie wore throughout the movie), a curve-hugging sequin dress, a faux fur capelet, and a black trench coat that costs a mere $150! If you found yourself drooling over the clothes in the movie, chances are you'll find something equally fabulous in the Destination Style New York collection. Head to HSN.com for more details.

Lorick Lady

There are so many reasons to love Lorick, the New York-based label from Abigail Lorick. For starters, her impeccable attention to detail makes for insanely pretty dresses, skirts, and jackets.


And it should come as no surprise that after launching her line just one year ago, in April 2007, Lorick has already been featured in Nylon, Lucky, Teen Vogue, and Elle to name a small few. After all, her preppy-meets-50s retro collection is decidedly prim (hello, Gossip Girls character Blair Waldorf's entire wardrobe is Lorick!), but not so much so that parrot-print chiffons, silky metallics, brilliant pops of color, and even leather jeans with zippered ankles don't belong.


And let's not forget her Summer '08 collection, which features flecks of yellow in every piece (much like the traditional crafts of Kenya) to support LWALA (Living With A Life-long Ambition), an organization that helps facilitate development in African communities.

Perhaps best of all is her consistency--the Fall '08 is equally if not more divine than the debut, with dresses to drool over, ladylike gloves, and the retro flair that is no doubt the biggest reason to love Lorick.

Los Angeles - Girly girls of L.A. rejoice! Nanette Lepore has landed on trendy Melrose and it is beyond divine! The 2,200-square-foot boutique is double, yes double the size of the Robertson Blvd boutique, which means there will be much more merchandise to love, natch! Located near Diane von Furstenberg, Theory, and BCBG, the store features rose-tinted marble floors, high ceilings, custom Lucite chairs, and white lacquered chandeliers - tres chic! Expect to find her signature fabulous frocks, as well as more jewelry (at higher price points) and an expanded footwear area, not to mention the requisite Hollywood back door for celeb shoppers and a huge, private dressing room.

Keeping It Simple

This summer I vow to look flawless everyday, but not overdone. I pledge to keep it simple with unfussy, effortlessly cool frocks and tops that are easy and chic and completely affordable. I promise to never worry if I'm running late because I will always have something fabulous and low maintenance waiting in my closet. This summer I will undoubtedly be wearing Lewis Cho...
