Madewell's Newly Launched Website - My Picks

Originally founded as a workwear company in 1937, jean extraordinaire Madewell recently launched their website. I found so many instant classic pieces to add to both a capsule wardrobe as well as a few piece de resistance I would deem worthy of being statement pieces. 

Sumatra Shirtdress

Casual and effortless and perfect to throw on over a bathing suit after a long day at the beach

Sebago Spinnakers   ------------& ------------ White wash Midi shorts

Roppongi Dress

Your carefree LBD that is perfect for day and an easy transitional piece 

you can convert with the right accessories for evening.

Clambake Romper

Brunch Shorts in Fossil

Baggy enough to have a boyfriend feel but short enough to keep a feminine edge. Wonderful color.

Perfect Summer Beach Bag

A Few Favorites for Summer 2010

There are so many silly forecasted trends for Summer 2010 I find myself unimpressed with most and already painfully aware of the rest. A select few caught my eye and I chose to share them with Aristobrat readers.

Oribe's Impermeable Anti-Humidity Spray: prevents frizz whether you just had your hair blown out or are sporting loose, perfect curls. Not only will you be content with the non-sticky hold it provides, but Tom Ford created a signature scent only available in Oribe products. It is a light mix of the Cuban orchid with undertones of apple. The product is now being sold in Bella Sante Spas so Boston fashionistas stock up.

 

Colorful boat shoes in a variety of bright hues are being offered by Gucci, Cole Hann and Sperry alike. The perfect way to add a little punch to an otherwise naturally toned outfit.

 

The messy, casual side-braid is forever an easy go-to summer hairstyle that takes little time and

will keep tendrils off your neck in the humid summer weather. Face-framing pieces are

flattering and feminine.

 

Carrera: I first saw these on my friend Grace and was immediately attracted to the sleek design and later after she informed me of the very reasonable price my appreciation only deepened. Those pictured

above are the "Speedway" Aviators.

 

Florals are forever a girls best friend for this season. Flirty, simple and easy to dress up or down. I always begin transitioning mid spring, it always seems to put me in a brighter mood!

Gucci is one of the first to release a fashionable Ipad cover, retailing at only $195 it seems quite reasonable for something you will be no doubt using quite often!
