This Copenhagen cutie tempers a slouchy-shorts-and-tee combo with a buttery blazer for a polished vibe that's totally spot-on for Summer. The key to getting the look right? Keep the proportions balanced, the color palette simple and the accessories neutral. A crisp trompe l'oeil T-shirt and sleek metal jewelry add interest, while chunky wedges keep the look grounded.

Adam Lippes Serves Up Functional Fresh Pieces With a Twist For Fall 2011

Chi Diem Chau — Sat, 12 Feb 2011 23:32:53 PST

>> "The starting point in designing every collection is the woman who wears my clothes," said Adam Lippes, post-show. His ADAM collection, inspired by a recent visit to the National Museum of the American Indian, called out to the city girl, constantly on the go, working and loving life. Seventies-inspired utilitarian pieces like silk pleated skirts, wide-leg wool trousers, and delicate lace tops were given a fun twist with bold plaid prints and soft feminine hues. Meanwhile, ethnic print skirts, fringed-embellished hand-knit sweaters, and decadent soft mohair blanket coats hark back to Lippes’s main inspiration point. For eveningwear, the designer created sheer lace gowns and a punchier gold embroidered dress. This one’s definitely calling to what Lippes describes as the woman who wants to be “that girl”; especially when she’s accessorizing with geek chic glasses, scrunched socks, and Manolo Blahnik pumps.

We spotted this scarf-centric ensemble at Milan Fashion Week and couldn't wait until the weather got chilly enough to try it out ourselves - love the way the sweet pastel hues contrast with the edgier army green jacket. We're all about utilizing scarves for a little outfit color - and texture - contrast; peep our top scarf picks - ranging from a vivacious Yves Saint Laurent leopard print version to a textural olive green fringed version from Topshop - to emulate the same look now!

Alexander Wang, Gareth Pugh, and More Are Scooping Up Chance to Show at MAC and Milk's Free New York Fashion Week Venue

fashionologie — Fri, 31 Jul 2009 11:31:12 PDT

>> Soon after Maybelline announced it would be be taking over from five-year Bryant Park cosmetics sponsor MAC, MAC - presumedly, as New York Times' Eric Wilson put it, tired of having to share "a rather circuslike stage with other sponsors who were competing for attention, sometimes including makers of doughnuts, cameras, toilets and Big Macs" - announced that it would be producing the tentatively-titled MAC and Milk Fashion Week with Milk Studios at the same time as the traditional New York Fashion Week.

The event can be seen as either a complement or a competitor to Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, but on the record, anyway, there seem to be no hard feelings. Milk Studios founder Mazdack Rassi says of the initiative: "This week is not an alternative show space, it's a way of cultivating designers and helping them come up with new ways of selling their clothes." And Zach Eichman, a VP of IMG Fashion, which produces the shows at Bryant Park, told the New York Times last week the company welcomed the MAC and Milk event and that bus service between shows would be available when possible. “We can’t do every show in the tents. We hope they will be successful.”

This year, Adam Lippes revealed a nautical-inspired resort collection. From the embellished maxi dresses to the easy draped shorts many of the items will prove just perfect for a midseason getaway. In fact, one might picture each piece perfectly rolled into a designer suitcase, easily mix-and-matchable during an exotic vacation. As for the gals who might not have the chance to indulge in such things, there are still city-ready boyfriend blazers, cocktail dresses and dazzling statement necklaces which will surely ease the pain.
