Most Wanted: Robert Rodriguez High-Waist Pant

Robert Rodriguez (who I love!) High Waist Pants. Available at Bergdorf Goodman on 5F.

Belted Pants: Black/cream stripes.
High, double-belted waist.
Flat front.
Flared legs.

I know a lot of people are all down on the high-waist, but as I have stressed before, wear what suits you. Now, for me, having long legs and a long torso/high waist this style is a god-send...plus I think it looks very cool.

Muted Shades...Bags in Assorted Shades of Neutrals

A nice selection of the muted theme in handbags. I especially love the new collection from Gryson (who was formerly a bag designer at MJ).

These are so cute, maybe pants, maybe lighter-weight jeans? The pockets appear to have ruched stitching. Love it!

Beauty Alert: Pale Lips

Reminiscent of Twiggy and Barbarella, the runway was filled with images of the 'pale lip'. Sometimes paired with a strong eye, preferably smoky and sometimes alone, it is always a powerful statement. If you can pull it off with your colouring, do try, its fun. I have a British friend who regularly sports this look, and I am so envious of her care-free attitude towards it.

Barbarella or Belle de Jour from Nars,


Dahlila Flesh (a peachy beige shimmer) from Vincent Longo,


and of course the cult "pale lip" from Lancome (also available at Bloomies).
