Rag & Bone

At this time of year, there are always new pieces, collaborations, and previews of up and coming collections in the works. Therefore, I’m quite obsessed with a number of things at the moment, starting off with Rag & Bone’s “Pilot” bag. It might be cold outside, but who said you have to get rid of warm weather memories, including nature’s prettiest flowers. This old-school print was inspired by a 19th century Russian munisak, a traditional type of overcoat. This durable “It” bag is the perfect gift for the holidays (it’s not going to be in stores until December, but it’s already available to pre-order online), or you could just snatch it for yourself.

Aldo Spring ’13

Aldo knows what us girls are looking for…and on a budget. For the upcoming spring season, Aldo’s studded flats, floral print heels, lucite-injected pumps, and crystal-studded kicks are getting me super excited. Not only will you become head-over-heels for the brand’s shoes, but you might also have a nostalgic moment with ’90s heart-shaped sunnies and cuff-clutches.

Gwyneth Paltrow for Butter London

Us gals love a good old nail combo–especially one that has to do with Gwyneth Paltrow. It makes perfect sense that she collaborated with Butter London for her first-ever line of nail polish. Gwyneth’s signature lifestyle site, Goop, joined forces with one of my favorite nail polish brands to create three darling holiday-ready shades that I can’t wait to get my nails in: Hampstead Heath, Bread & Butter Pudding, and Abso-bloody-lutely. Stocking stuffers? You betcha!

Tom Ford Holiday

If I could pull off bright red lipstick, Tom Ford’s beautiful new Jasmin Rouge Lip Color Collection would be at the top of my list. I met Tom Ford (one of my designer crushes–I still gasp at the thought) during the launch of his makeup collection last fall, and it keeps getting better and better.

What items/collections/collaborations are winning your attention right now? I’d love to know.

with style,
