Practicality is never a strong influence when it comes to women’s fashion. The look is always the leading factor, which is exactly why the new long vest serves solely as a fashion statement. Most people choose a knee-length coat not only because it’s chic, but also because it serves a purpose – to keep you warm on a cold day. The long vest was created to turn even the drabbest outfits into an easy and sophisticated look, without considering the impact of the weather while looking fab. Whether designers choose a structured take on the vest like Vince or a flowy version like Missoni, the long vest is an absolute must.

Growing up as a kid in the 90s, overalls were a solid staple in my wardrobe: jean, velvet, corduroy – you name it. The fad came and went, and we vowed NEVER to wear overalls again… that is, until right now. Overalls are making a strong comeback this Spring with a reinvented shape to add a feminine touch to the slouchy, grunge onesies of our past. With tapered legs and rolled cuffs, this is the fashion trend I dare you try in 2014. Check out some of my favorite new styles:
Current/Elliott
Citizens of Humanity
Current/Elliott
Free People
Townsen
15 Fifteen

On Christmas Eve, every family has their own tradition. Whether it’s trimming the tree, watching a classic holiday movie, or reading The Night Before Christmas, it’s a holiday tradition that will forever continue no matter how old you get. For my family, our tradition is wearing our matching Lanz of Salzburg gowns. Though they may not be the trendiest, nothing feels more like Christmas than wearing my head-to-toe flannel gown while sitting by the fire. Lanz has been designing these gowns for over 60 years now and the styles remain the same, imagine that. Here’s a snapshot from a previous Christmas Eve:
