Back to School: with some of my fave tv characters!

8.28.2012

If you follow my Monday Musette column….you know I am a little obsessed with TV characters! I have my favorites who inspire me, and motivate me to try something a little new and different once in awhile!  Here is a few of them, and what a modern day ‘Sydney’, ‘Cher’, ‘Denise’ or ‘Mallory’ would wear back to school this fall with a twist of my own of course!

Sydney from the 1992 Melrose Place was the college drop-out but I dig her floral finds and school girlish beret’s!

 Denise! Love her from the Cosby show and her sense to be able to just pull about anything off!

|1 Helmut Lang | 2 Karen Walker | 3 ASOS | 4 Top Man | 5 Brahmin | 6 80/20 shoes |

In the early season of Family Ties, Mallory along with her many many sweaters, see post here….wear’s a lot of these silk little tea dresses…I love this one from Girl.  by Band of Outsiders!

Cher…goes with out saying. Style meets class meets a new twist.  Her world is always bright, and that’s what I like about her!

Fave Looks: Rachel Antonoff Fall 2012

8.28.2012

Getting excited for fall and escaping into storybook land with Rachel Antonoff.  For her Fall 12 collection she brings back a childhood memory of pretending to be sailing at night.  And she takes us back to this imaginative tale very well with her whimsical clothes.  No surprise here, in a very good way. Girlish dresses embellished with sparkling collars.  Prints reflected a delightful trip sailing along a forest of printed leaves.  And how adorable is this little skirt with a coin purse sewn to be a pocket!  That is definitely going on my wish list! Colors included fire engine red, delicate oranges, deep blues and a dark turquoise.  Silhouettes were of high waisted skirts, playful rompers,  40’s feminine fitted tea-length dresses, along with embellished shifts. Hoping to get my hands on some of these this fall, so cute!!
