NBC-Tv Segment “Working the Hottest Accessories!”

Hi all!

This past Wednesday I worked with my mentor, leading fashion expert and eBay style director: Constance White, on a fashion segment for NBC called “Working the Hottest Accessories”.  It was on NBC’s lifestyle show, LX New York. I also made an appearance as one of the models! It went fabulously! Constance spoke of how this season’s accessories can transcend into Fall and also next year. You can view the segment Here. Take notes on how to rock it this summer!

Winnnie, me, and Kat

*All clothes by Elie Tahari*

On Kat: Do Good bags are the new “it bag”. Kat is wearing the “Feed 2 Kenya Bag”, which is not only stylish but with every purchase, you feed two school children in Kenya and also help employ the women of their community. This bag costs $195 and $100 of that goes towards this mission! Wow, amazing!

Kat is also wearing reptile platform Elie Tahari “Elyse” shoe boot, $498. These can be worn now bare and then into Fall with tights for layering! Fabulous shoes : )

On Winnie: Winnie is rocking one of the hottest trends of the season:  South American, African and Eastern European tribal prints! Her beautiful Yigal Azourel “Tangier” bag costs $1,130.

Another huge trend is Clogs! Winnie’s are by Catherine Malandrino “Churango”, $650.  These also have a gorgeous tribal theme.

My evening look: I am wearing a statement mixed metal “Pamela” necklace by Elie Tahari, $348. Bold necklaces are a key piece in every wardrobe!

My “Lavinia” Lucite metallic clutch by Cassandra, $637, is a nod to the 60s, a rising trend; set to fully take off this Fall!

My nude metallic shoes by Tracy Reese “Bijou”, $295 are the perfect neutral for so many looks! A neutral shoe also helps elongate the leg.

So there you have it: all the keys to staying current and looking Fab this season! Remember accessories make the outfit! Wear them well!

What’s your favorite look?

Fly As A Bird! Marc by Marc Jacobs Resort 2011 Accessories!!

The inspiration for Marc by Marc Jacobs’ Resort Accessories 2011 collection was endangered birds, and what a wise choice. Birds are indeed a fabulous fashion statement since the amount of color usage is unlimited. Very cool, yet so underestimated! Although I was not a fan of the boyish clothing styles of Marc by Marc Jacobs resort collection, the accessories collection definitely impressed me. I want it all! I love the sixties vibe of Marc Jacobs resort collection, and I would definitely pair this jewelry with those vintage-inspired fab pieces!

Evening Frosbeak Fauna necklace, $58 (with detachable bird pendant that doubles as pin!)
Snow Bunting Donna ring, $98
Nancy Necklace, $298
Fluoro Turnlock Bracelets, $98
Faceted Resin Ring, $88 Stefani Necklace, $148
Winnie Bag, $598 (pyramid textured leather & soft suede)
Perfect Purse, $498
Smith Bag, $358

My favs from this collection are the Snow Bunting Donna Ring (which would look fab with sooo many things!), the Perfect Purse and the Smith Bag!

What are your favs?

Thank you, Marc! Amazing : )

*Fab-up your life : ) xo-JoyAdaeze-xo
