Clare Vivier

I first learned about Clare Vivier through my obsession with ghost chairs when she participated in the Ghost Project. Of course, I completely fell in love with her handbags and clutches, which have since been sprouting up on all of the major fashion and street style blogs. Clare has quickly made a name for herself with her timeless approach to design, and I think she is here to stay. Now the question is, do I pick the classic black clutch or the fabulous royal blue pebbled clutch? Decisions, decisions.

Would you buy a Clare Vivier bag?

Rachel Roy Scarves

You know you have a scarf addiction when you want to buy scarves in June.

The pretty colors get me every time.

Proenza Schouler

This collection is an edgy take on classic school wear. The plaid skirt with the thigh highs, the swingy cheerleader skirt, and even the letterman's jacket. Bold patterns and luxurious furs transform a drab uniform into something fresh and innovative.

Diane von Furstenberg

We can always count on DvF for a gorgeous collection. She describes this collection as a man's life in a woman's body, which is apparent in the mix of feminine textures and prints layered with tailored masculine pieces. Of course the wrap dress and an array of bright prints make their appearance too!

Michael Kors

Michael says, "It's utility for Park Avenue" and I couldn't agree more. This collection is athletic yet glamorous, everything I love about fall: chunky knits, thick layers, and muted colors.

Marc Jacobs

Simple, serene, neutral, and practical, with a few statement pieces mixed in. What more could we ask for?
