Dress: The Issa Collection for Banana Republic | Shoes: MICHAEL Michael Kors “Flex” | Earrings: Argento Vivo | Bracelet: c/o Ruth Barzel Jewelery Design I’m not a fan of designer collaborations. I don’t understand clamoring for a cheaper version of a designer piece. I don’t want a glued-together pleather bag or ill-fitting polyester blouse no…
Last Tuesday I went to one of the most fantastic fashion events in all my years of blogging. I entered the beautiful venue to a room glowing with the setting sun streaming through the large windows, live music, and stylish people milling about, drinking signature cocktails and enjoying appetizers served by waitstaff in tuxedos.
