man repeller makeover

Earlier this week, my editor, Kerry, and I went down to Kirna Zabete in SoHo for the morning to shoot a little makeover for StyleCaster with none other than one of my favorite fashion bloggers, Leandra Medine, aka The Man Repeller. It was so much fun to browse around and play dress up in all the newest trends and clothes that I can in no way afford. Leandra changed clothes about as many times as I did and ended up buying this fabulous lime Proenza Schouler slip dress. Needless to say, I was très jaloux. 





The pictures from the makeover, taken by StyleCaster favorite Joseph D'Arco, will be on the site soon. I'll re-post them here afterwards but until then, here's a little snapshot Kerry took on her phone. I'm excited to see how the real pictures turned out!

bridal style copycats?

Uhmmm... Hi Kate Middleton. I'd like you to meet your long-lost twin from last century, Grace Kelly. I love that the princess (or is it duchess?) du jour wore a gown designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, but I'm having a bit of bridal déjà vu...

StyleCaster, Racked

princess bride



Cute. And she looked GORG. But the second kiss is a little over-hyped, no? For their first endeavor into the world of pda, I think they could've spiced things up a bit more.

strutting soundtrack

So whenever I'm in the city I find that it helps to have a badass soundtrack to walk around to. These are my go-to songs when I want a little spunk in my stride. And don't laugh at me. Some of them are embarrassing.
