AG Jeans SS15 Campaign
Blow away is probably more apt. It’s bitter cold and windy on Long Island this weekend with more snow coming our way. I don’t regret that we stayed home over the holidays; however, these AG Jeans SS15 campaign images make me wish that we had a sailing trip on the calendar.
Most times, when the location is a sailboat, the models are decked out in nautical-inspired outfits or silly summer dresses. I love that Daria is styled in jeans and easy tops—what I actually wear when out on the water and it’s overcast.

By Marc Jacobs
First, Phoebe Philo did a version of the Birkenstock for Céline, now, the It sandal for SS15 is Marc Jacobs’ take on the classic Dr. Scholl’s slide. Glammed up in satin and velvet with a sparkly clasp, these are not the basic Dr. Scholl’s of my childhood.

A.P.C. & Vanessa Seward
The A.P.C. & Vanessa Seward SS15 collection is available. I love Vanessa Seward’s grown-up style, and the casting of one of my all-time favorite models, Carmen Kass, is spot-on.

This Saint Laurent scarf is the ultimate winter tweak. It’s the same patchwork design as the label’s most coveted dress but, at a fraction of the price. And the best part? You can wear it now.

Tommy Ton snapped this pic at the Paris Couture shows—the long leather coat is très chic.

In The Wall Street Journal
So, the blizzard was a bit of a non-event but, we are still home for a snow day. I saw this rosti (Swiss potato pancake) recipe in The Wall Street Journal last weekend and will make it today for a post-sledding lunch.

In Vogue Paris
You’d have to be living under a rock to not know that ’70s-style has come roaring back. I’m not complaining because it’s one of the best fashion eras to mine for inspiration. This story, from the February issue of Vogue Paris, is a good example of how to wear all the suede, trenches, and silver jewelry that are so popular now. The Native American Indian pieces are particularly good. I’m going to raid my mother’s jewelry box, again.

Films
Post snowstorm, I want to see this film. The cast is great, especially Julianne Moore, she’s my favorite actress right now.

Trending
Some of my best inspiration comes from the women I see on the street, especially on the Upper East Side. Every morning I drop my daughter at school on 91st then, I walk straight down Madison to my office at 70th—this is prime run-around outfit territory. Two of the most ubiquitous UES items this winter, and a somewhat unlikely pairing, are the Hermès Evelyne messenger bag and shearling clog boots. Functional with a touch of boho-chic—I get it.
So, I went to check out the clog boots at No. 6 Store in Soho, and they are pretty great. I know, many of you will pooh-pooh clogs, but they are a big trend, and I’m looking forward to getting a pair.

In Interview
This is such a funny idea for a story that I had to post a few images. Mikael Jansson photographed four girls harvesting vegetables for the February issue of Interview. Not sure I’d wear a handbag while gardening, but hey, it’s a fashion shoot, and the clothes are fantastic—there are some perfect spring run-around pieces on these pages.

In The Wall Street Journal
If you read my holiday post on Tory Burch’s blog, you know that I am a sledding fanatic. I’ve had my beloved Norwegian toboggan since childhood. So, when I saw this round-up of sleds in The Wall Street Journal, I couldn’t resist—especially since so many of us have snow.

In Vogue Paris
I’m looking forward to the February issue of Vogue Paris which has a huge story (there are 88 looks) by David Sims. Three stylists contributed to it—Emmanuelle Alt, Suzanne Koller, and Joe McKenna. Here are just a few of my favorite images.

Ryan McGinley
I’ve seen a number of fashion stories by the photographer Ryan McGinley recently and they’ve inspired me to revisit his series Moonmilk from 2009. This is absolutely my favorite image.

On Self Service
While posting on scarves, I remembered this how-to video on the Self Service Magazine site. This way I can be uber matchy-matchy—I like that at times.

I still love a good pair of nerdy glasses, especially these by Saint Laurent. I may have to upgrade my readers…
