The Power of a Brand: Discount Couture

While're we're fans of most couture displays, aspiring to the luxe experience, we're not opposed to a great fashion bargain..and we've discovered that some "Brand Name" fashion girls, like JLO, and others, have taken to the fashion mass market scene just like TARGET, H&M, and now KOHL's has featured J LO,  an interesting way to bring to the street, her now ultimate chic. We perused the pages and were happy to see that she has done what ISAAC MIZRAHI could not pull off at TARGET: really chic, and, well thought out pieces that you need to fill in your closet in a pinch.  We think its a stellar debut...and worth a look as she rolls out her collections for the season.  Stylist PRIVEE  

Emmy Report: Let the Season Begin!

Let's hear it for the Boys: The Men of Entourage 

Who can Blame me?  After acres of gowns, flashbulbs popping and cleavage everywhere, not to mention the chorus of girls who haven't eaten for a week, it was a total relief when the ENTOURAGE dudes took the stage and showed us how to do menswear.  Sleek, chic, retro, futuristic, they did it all and don't forget the witty repartee.  The Awards season is about the girls...the men do their best to sidestep the ladies while the flashbulbs pop and the "Glam Cam" and "Stilletto 360s"  show off their wares.  Everyone is getting into "AWARDS fever" and fashion plays an important role in making it the second biggest American Pastime...but let's get back to basics: Sheer star power on the Red Carpet and a personal brand, make or break a red carpet appearance.  We'll look at the "do's and Don'ts"  coming up in the next few weeks, but, until then, 

Let's hear it for the Boys...who did a great job of spiffing up for the occasion. 

We're glad they did!
