Purchase a shoulder showing top NOW! Add jeans or a great pair of shorts – mine are from H&M, top is from the incredible Tanya Taylor.
Next time you find yourself carrying groceries, working out at SoulCycle or lifting a child – remember to do a couple of extra reps as this style is all about exposing the shoulders!
That is the message delivered in New York this week by a majority of the presenting designers.
Proenza Schouler rejigged the double breasted blazer, opening their show with a sleeveless jacket wrapped up in a Pussy Galore meets the KFC Colonel’s skinny black bow tie. Nothing represents classic fashion more than black and white.
The spectacularly sexy cool white designs found in Jonathan Simkhai’s Spring 2016 Collection should make every woman deliriously happy! The cut and style flow and ooze with style.
This could get dangerous!!!!
Michael Kors is THE gentleman of classic clothing. His Spring 2016 Collection is clean, forever fashion that glided across the runway and made buyers, editors and fashion lovers drool! The simplest design with the cleanest of lines in the very best of fabrics and colors.
Kors also brought out a bouquet of decadence in brocade floral pieces. The richness in their design and material is beyond compare, and an investment in his clothing guarantees a healthy roi!
Budget wise Michael Kors also offers a lower priced line, Michael Michael Kors which is always influenced by his ready-to-wear designs. So these fashions will easily translate into mall shopping!
Tomas Maier aka Mr. Miami, is all about linen, full skirts, maxi dresses, shirt dresses, pinks and reds. Simple one piece dressing – perfection in ease and style.

Now if we can all just ride out the 70’s vibe for Fall 2015…
Secretly I have been coveting these Stuart Weitzman gladiator sandals for a couple of months. Despite the fact that I live in Boston, a city where summer, aka sandal season, is only a few weeks long.
L’Oreal Paris has launched Advanced Haircare Smooth Intense Ultimate Straight, a four step product line. I have straight hair that has magically started to form weird kinky parts and curls that have never ever appeared before. I wondered if this new line of hair care would unkink the kinks…
reversecommuter was asked to review the line, and that is where the fun started!
Step one – go to SoulCycle and workout like a fiend to get your hair really really really dirty!
ew…stinks and kinks…
Step 2 -Lather Up! This is my cheeseball “and I’m worth it” pic
Shampooing, an early morning art form!
The shampoo smells great (as does the entire line) and is not too heavy which is a good trait if you are not into the greasies.
Step 3 – No need to lather-rinse-repeat as there are 4 products to use…just move on to Smooth Intense Ultimate Straight Boosting pre-conditioner
This step is new to me but seemed to enhance the conditioner when applied. Not sure if it is necessary for me as my hair isn’t super curly just annoyingly kinky.
Step 4 – Conditioner
reversecommuter is a conditioner junkie – meaning there are usually two or three different bottles on the go at one time in a Goldilocks kind of approach : not too oily, not too heavy, not too light #pickypickypicky
L’Oreal Paris’ Smooth Intense Ultimate Straight Straightening Conditioner smells like a bouquet of lilies, doesn’t feel oily or greasy and is not too heavy on the hair.
Step 5 – Styling Balm
I like the idea of the balm as a protector from the heat, and if it can help to unkink the weird kinks in my hair then this is one step I will be sure not to skip.
All in all I was impressed with the unkinking result Smooth Intense Ultimate Straight delivered, and even more impressed that it kept the kinks away for over 48 hours.
* please note that I did not receive payment just the product *
The Rick Owen creation is limitless in life span and (here comes the fabulous part…) a Rick Owens piece is an easy peasy addition that makes an outfit. Gorgeous clothing that doesn’t need directions. What. Is. Better. Than. That.? Nada.
