Velvet Goldmine

I love the velvet accessories trend and posted a divine pair of Jimmy Choo pumps a few weeks ago. Prada, too, is firmly in the game with a number of bags and shoes in the luxe fabric.

Here and here.

The flats are fab, though I’m also drawn to the velvet hi-tops…

The flats are very cool. Love the color combo too.

I love velvet and hanker after a velvet trouser suit this autumn. I’m now so over summer clothes and dreaming of coats, boots, knitwear etc.. Very odd since I’m really a summer person lol. Great to see you picking out some great new arrivals! I feel in need of guidance at this time of year. Thank you!

Great pics to start our fall dreaming! I made my first fall purchase this week. A Prada sweater with ribbon ties at the side! If it wasn’t for fall clothes I could never leave summer behind! Love the velvet, Preston!

Feeling Fall

'Figure Study'

After 20 years casting models for Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and fashion shows, I wanted to spend more time with my daughters. KiC is my way to share my thoughts on fashion and style. I believe style should permeate every aspect of our lives — from home, to family, to where we go, and naturally, what we wear — especially when we're just running around.
