Add Carine Roitfeld to your list of must-know fashion influencers. I’m embarrassed that I haven’t looked into Roitfeld and her influence in the industry sooner—Mademoiselle C only touches the surface of her impact. After 10 years at French Vogue, Carine is now running her own magazine, CR Fashion Book. The first Men’s CR Book will […]
Read MoreMichael Kors recently settled a lawsuit for $4.8 million for misleading its outlet customers by labeling its outlet merchandise as “discounted,” when in fact, the outlet goods are made specifically for the outlet.

We want to know where our food comes from—why wouldn’t we also think about where our clothing comes from? Two years have passed since the Rana Plaza collapse, one of the most tragic industrial disasters in recent history.

If you haven’t heard of Birchbox, it’s basically a service that ships you a […]

As a nice change of scenery from Ochre Court at Salve Regina, this year’s Au Courant was held at Belle Mer on Goat Island. I can’t stress enough how […]

Read MoreAs much I miss college already, I don’t miss the lack of free time to read. Last fall, I took workshop about 20th century fashion. The course had several interesting reading assignments to supplement the lectures, but I had only lightly skimmed through them. Now I finally have the time to curl up and read […]
Read MoreI really dropped the ball on blogging this week, so I’ll spare you the details and stick to pictures: The Elms Mirrors on the wall at Steph’s Pour Judgment on Broadway Cod on couscous, mushrooms and spinach Bella sitting on my coat before heading to work, while Emma (top left) and Maddie pace by the […]
Read MoreBasically I’m listing everything I packed for my three-week study abroad in Paris, France at La Sorbonne. It’s by no means an exhaustive list–and it will most likely change between now and when I leave for the airport–but after the trip, I hope to revisit this list and see if there was anything that wasn’t […]
