Kikoh Reiki

I was a bit frazzled after LFW to say the least. Nay, I was even more frazzled before. T’was a befrazzled period. Anyhoo, what kept me going was knowing I’d be ‘chillaxin’ (©: Mike & Karoona) at Kikoh Reiki shortly afterwards. Kikoh is an oasis of calm for busy urbanites. Based within the Ranelagh farmers’ [...]

New York Fashion Week Fall 2010: Badgley Mischka

Mark Badgley and James Mischka showed some gorgeous red-carpet-worthy gowns at their Tuesday morning show at Bryant Park. Included were some gorgeous column gowns, and a charming little gold confection made of what looked like a series of connected peony blossoms. But there were more “serious” clothes, too, including some work ready dresses that would [...]

Finally arrived at The Kensington Hotel. Am sifting through my invites as I type - Vivienne Westwood, Julie McDonald, Margaret Howell, John Rocha, Sass & Bide amongst many. V excited. Can’t see many front row seats in the mix (ST are not initials a fashion journalist wishes to see on an [...]

New York Fashion Week Fall 2010: Rag & Bone

Here’s hoping that next winter is as bleak and cold as this winter is turning out to be. That’s because the Rag & Bone collection that was sent down the runway last week was nothing if not practical. It all looked toasty, and a couple of plaid pieces almost – do I dare say it [...]

New York Fashion Week Fall 2010: Nicole Miller

The Nicole Miller Fall-Winter 2010 collection presented at New York Fashion Week  last Friday showed that black is the new black. Color was rare to non-existent, and evoked some of the things about the 80s before fashion went berserk. There was a lot of texture, lots of pleating, wrapping, ruching, and asymmetry.
The collection was very [...]

Maurie & Eve

I love finding new niche labels I can sink my cash into! My latest love is Sydney’s Maurie & Eve. Stocked @ Urban Outfitters, the baby Aussie brand (only six years old!) combines cutesy separates with a tough girl edge like this rockin’ fringe dress (€183). This is 100% Studio 54 with fluorescent lights. [...]
