Somewhere between last summers constant downpours  and the amazing boot season we’ve been having I realized that my casual  sandal game has gotten weak.

I know , I know Wedding ?? But you know what as much as I cannot stand the cliché and stereotypes of the cookie cutter wedding, I still believe in a love story and the commitment two people make to love cherish each other etc etc .

Sad to say but my Jersey women have nothing on the participants featured for this hair-themed art project, which is a collaboration between CuldeSac and Studio Marisol, who put on a seminar each summer attended by renowned designers, architects and artists who live and work together with the participants for a length of six to ten days. Held at at Domaine de Boisbuchet in southwest France, this summer’s design theme will be human hair. According to Yatzer, “The main goal is to research, design and build a project by using cutting, shape, fixing, weaving, teasing, textures and colour. But…how could these treatments have influence on design products? This is one of the many questions that emerge in this unique workshop where hair’s properties (versatility, resistance, structure, aesthetics, colour and light) will be given to newly created objects of design.” Personally I’m a little baffled, but in any case, the hair is quite wonderful.

Proenza Schouler designers Jack McCullough and Lazaro Hernandez don’t even attempt to conceal their glee while learning all about simulation tie dye at the feet of home icon Martha Stewart. Listen for the segment’s funniest exhange when Martha says, “Well they went to Parson’s! I only spoke at Parson’s!”

Half of me thinks that oak  made a typo in calling this Gar-de  piece a skirt when it really looks more like a pair of slanted hem harem-y shorts. Then again  in fashion name calling you never know?  The shape is interesting but definitely not the easiest thing to wear. This is one  that can look fab or just be a big fashion mistake. Definitely no middle ground. More views on the next page.

 I just had to share  that all of A Peace Treaty’s  scarves are now reduced. The Siachen ( above)  is perfect to carry around for the cooler spring nights. Their handwoven cashmere  is so soft and lightweight you’ll  end up like me rocking yours  everyday . Available here.

One of my favorite places in NYC to just drool freely over shoes , the Christan Louboutin boutique in Tribeca. Sleek, intimate, glamorous yet  unpretentious. Filled  with all the shoes that make my fashion dreams come true. Here’s a look at the windows from a few weeks ago. More on the next page. Breathe…
