BTS - Jeffrey Fashion Cares 2014

BTS with Jeffrey Fashion Cares 2014

Instagram repost from Caren West PR

If Monday is this glamorous for Jeffrey McQuithy, Louise Sams and Lila Hertz, I can only imagine what the rest of the week will bring! For real... who starts the week off in black tie? [Jeffrey in Etro, Louise is wearing Simone Rocha and Lila in Dior.] Well actually, there is a fabulous cause behind the couture:

Jeffrey Fashion Cares 2014!

YES darlings, can you believe we're already talking JFC?!! The first planning meeting is coming up very soon and I'll be sure to bring you ALL the scoop I possibly can from the committee. BUT for now, we can swoon over this absolutely exquisite,

behind-the-scenes

photo of the Co-Chairs taken by JFC pr maven Caren West. I will speculate that if the "styling" of the shoot is any indication of what to expect from this year's event, all I've got to say is O-EM-GEE! 

*The 22nd Annual Jeffrey Fashion Cares is on August 25th, save-the-date!

Comme Des Garçons Fall 2014

Comme-Des-Garçons-fall-2014-fashionado

"The theme of the collection this time is MONSTER. It's not about the typical Monster you find in sci-fi and video games. The expression of the Monsters I have made has a much deeper meaning. The craziness of humanity, the fear we all have, the feeling of going beyond common sense, the absence of ordinariness, expressed by something extremely big, by something that could be ugly or beautiful. In other words, I wanted to question the established standards of beauty." Rei Kawakubo, Comme des Garçons.

I am seriously obsessing! Rei Kawakubo gave us living, breathing human art disguised as fashion. 

What is beauty anyway? And does it have to be functional or wearable? View Collection:

CHANEL on Aisle 5 Fall 2014

Chanel Supermarket

Paper, plastic or Chanel? The legendary fashion house turned "supermarket" for a day made Whole Foods look like a Piggly Wiggly. But of course, when your groceries come from the

Grand Palais everything else pales by comparison. Classic tweeds, shimmering metallics, knits, track suits and plenty of bright colors made Chanel Fall 2014 irresistible. Oh and Rihanna carted around by Joan Smalls was pretty fierce too! I just love this. What a creative and FUN way to keep current, young and relevant. When I say that Uncle Karl is a genius, I actually mean it. View Collection, you know, it's right there next to the produce section, but fresher:

GUCCI Presents: SS14 Campaign

Gucci

calls their Spring / Summer campaign film an "

intriguing game of unexpected moves." I call it good editing and beautiful clothing. I especially love the floral menswear.

Yeah. I can get into this.

Beckham Rides Belstaff

Whether he's in H&M undies or in moto-gear from Belstaff, I'll take David Beckham any way you wanna serve him! Here, he's pictured with his "band of brothers" [and a sister looks like] in an ad campaign for Belstaff. It seemed natural for Beckham, a lover of motorbiking, to design his own collection for the British luxury brand. Beckham's Belstaff collection will be available at Belstaff.com this March.

"Every Dress Worn by Best Actress Academy Award Winners" 1929 - Present (2014)

Now this is a chart I can read! Wow, excellent. Thanks Cosmopolitan UK...This fabulous  infographic by mediarundigital.co.u shows every dress worn by the winning Oscar best actress since 1929. The two things I learned from looking at it: 1.) Designer gowns didn't get popular until the 90's; 2.) there have been some really ugly dresses worn. 1978 -1984 will give me fashion nightmares.

The Academy Awards are Sunday. Bring on the red carpet!

Jessica Lange for Marc Jacobs

Jessica Lange for Marc Jacobs

Marc Jacobs is one smart queen by making Jessica Lange the new face of Marc Jacobs Beauty. First of all, she is and always has been a natural born beauty! For American Horror Story fans, like me, Lange just proved to be the only Supreme. And personally, I just love this. We all start out young, every single one of us, however, we all don't age equally well. Jessica Lange's beauty comes from not only the physical, but from her grace, sophistication and experience. Bottle that bitches....
