Miley Cyrus' Unstoppable Fashion Week Style


Miley Cyrus' New York Fashion Week style stuck to a strict color code: black, white, and red. Every look was equally striking and we couldn't get enough.

First, the mohawked star made an appearance at Rachel Zoe's show wearing a blousy '80s jumpsuit in a fearless crimson color. Next, she went a girlier route for Marchesa (it's only right) in a fitted white ruffled sheath dress with leopard pumps and a leather jacket draped over her shoulders. It was her Moschino motorcycle jacket, though, that was on hand for every other outfit. She even wore the rock star piece with a romantic white pleated Maison Martin Margiela gown to brilliant effect.

Miley closed out the week in stripes—first at the Marc Jacobs show in a darling Mickey Mouse crop-top and box-pleat skirt. Next, she joined the Beetlejuice trend in an ASOS maxi-dress with funky shoulder cutouts.

Velvet Slippers | TRENDS BRO


You know what’s cool about laces? Nothing. Trick question. It’s all about the velvet slipper.

The vizzy slizzy. From Stubbs & Wooten, to Del Toro Shoes, to Jimmy Choo. Elegant “screw-you” joints to go with your Brioni pajamas that get no use because you #never #sleep. Haircalf camo beasties for combating herbs in derbies. These ones say “New York” even though you spend your winters in Buenos Aires. The Argentines know them some slippers.

Vizzy slizzies. Do we wear ‘em ’cause we’re fly? Or are they fly ’cause we wear ‘em? Chicken and the egg.

#Overeasy.

Karl Lagerfeld Watches? - Designer Collaborates With Fossil


Chanel Creative Director Karl Lagerfeld holds an interesting position in the fashion industry as being not only the master of haute couture, but also a pioneer in the world of high-low collaborations—Lagerfeld was, famously, one of the first to team up with fast-fashion retailer H&M and he's gone on to work on projects with brands as diverse as Sofitel hotels, Steiff (teddy bears) and Diet Coke. This month, Lagerfeld will release a collection of watches with Fossil.

We got a sneak peek at the Karl Lagerfeld for Fossil collection at the Project trade show in Las Vegas this week—and we were really impressed! The seven watch platforms form a collection that bridges the gap between classic, luxe, and fashion-forward-tough with embellishments such as metallic leathers, pyramid studs (a Lagerfeld signature!), and bold chain bracelets.

Key styles in the series include the "Karl Seven," which highlights Lagerfeld's favorite number (seven); "Karl Zip," which we hear is Lagerfeld's personal favorite in the collection and features an exposed zip in its design; and the "Karl Chain," which is, um, all about the chain bracelet (see below).

The Karl Lagerfeld for Fossil collection will officially launch nationwide on Thursday, February 28th, but if you live near a Bloomingdale's, you're in luck—because the department store will be stocking the Karl Lagerfeld for Fossil collection beginning this Saturday. Priced between $150 and $595, these watches are a more affordable piece of Lagerfeld history you can wear everyday. Visit WatchKarl.com to find out where the watches will be sold near you.

And check out our close-up encounter with the watches at Project Las Vegas, right here:
