I couldn’t believe it when I read the piece on Lucky Magazine’s website. This HAS to be a joke. Of course, it could very well be (since it was seen on social media), but if it isn’t, then those women aren’t worthy of wearing Lilly. The stereotypical demographic of Lilly Pulitzer wearers tends to be […]

Carolina Herrera: Ladylike and Graceful, as Usual
If I had all the money in the world, I would buy every single piece Carolina Herrera shows, every single season. Sadly, I don’t have that kind of money for these very beautiful, lady-like looks, which are, as usual, gorgeous. For spring/summer 2015, cuts are a bit geometric – the first few looks featured cropped […]
Gorgeus Deep Shades at Carolina Herrera Don’t Disappoint
I don’t think I’ve ever been disappointed by Carolina Herrera. The looks are always gorgeous, with season-appropriate colours, and is always lady-like and grown-up. And this continues for the Fall/Winter 2013 season. Shiny, sparkly embellished, many made with silk, abound in this collection, but unlike other designers, the pieces manage to stay within Ms. Herrera’s […]
‘Proper’ Dress, Funky Dress and Press
Let me preface this article by saying that I don’t have issues with ALL fashion and style bloggers. Just some. They are the bloggers who have a holier-than-thou attitude about what’s “in” and what’s “out” and that certain celebrities don’t “have style” because they don’t always wear the latest trends. Then there are those bloggers […]
Trends and Normal People “Trying Too Hard”
Maybe I’m just getting old, but there are some trends I just don’t “get” or that I find a little rebellious. I know that sometimes, it’s because people are just following what certain celebrities (mostly musicians like Lady Gaga or her clone, Nikki Minaj), but sometimes, I feel that regular people who dress that way, […]
Gorgeous, Lady-Like Lines at Arthur Mendonça
Arthur Mendonça’s Fall/Winter 2012 collection is one of the few that I’m absolutely in love with. From the salmon coloured, dolman sleeved dress to a long sleeved, turquoise gown with a centre slit, slim leather pants and shiny, patterned pieces, there’s something about the collection that is sophisticated, elegant and lady-like. While there are some […]
Lundström Collection Brings Classic, Lady-Like Grace
Unlike many other shows at LG Fashion Week this season, Lundström Collection isn’t as much about being “on trend” than sticking with the classics. With a collection full of greys, blacks, winter whites and purples, it appeals to both younger and more mature demographics, focusing more on luncheons, teas and galas (as well as the office) […]
Soft and Lady-Like Looks for Carolina Herrera
Cynthia Cheng Mintz It comes to no surprise that Carolina Herrera’s Fall/Winter 2011 collection cries out lady-like elegance, from formal evening gowns to shorter pieces that are more appropriate daytime. Unlike the more casual or younger looking lines, the pieces are more much more pleasing to the eye. This definitely tells us her experience – […]
The Holiday Party: What to Wear to Meet the Parents
It’s always advisable to err on the side of the more conservative if you’re meeting your significant other’s parents for the first time. You really don’t want people who might be your future in-laws to think that you’re a slob or worse, a tramp. Even if they had a reputation of being over the top […]
