Cinq a Sept by Jane Siskin
|
I have to say I am obsessed! These pieces are so beautiful with an edgy sophistication, feminine but cool. This designer knows what women are looking for.
Cinq a Sept is inspired by the hours between 5 and 7pm., it's essentially the French equivalent to happy hour when the work day ends and the time to unwind kicks in. I read that this line was described as: "an infusion of Parisian chic into classic New York Style!" What I love about this brand is they are intended to transition between seasons, which means you can wear these pieces all year round. The fabric's she uses are crepe, silk, twill and look like they cost more than they do. |
Her line this season definitely seems to feel like an 1990's influence with a disco twist and I love it. This is a designer that I will be watching and collecting, lol Saks didn't have my size.
This is a New York based fashion hour and the designer got her start at 7 for Allan kind and Elizabeth and James , Its a relatively new line having launched in 2016.
I love mixing unique pieces with everyday basic's and this is a line that will definitely make that easy. Have to say final thoughts

So what is it about shoes?
|
Think about our childhood- first we had Cinderella and the glass slipper.
Next we had Sex and the City and Carrie Bradshaw and her gorgeous Manola Blahnik shoes. The love affair started...lets go to Saks Firth Avenue and peek at the new shoes. There is some serious mood boosters going on when you try on that beautiful pair of shoes. The psychology is the neurotransmitter dopamine is related, providing that feel-good high. Shoes are mood altering. |
Just thinking about the new fall shoes start to get that adrenaline flowing through your body and by the time you reach the shoe store, your body begins to release dopamine and serotonin as well as norepinephrine and oxytocin and bam this is a powerful feeling .
Let's face it both Women and Men love shoes....it's an indisputable fact. Some of us love high heels, some love shoes with bling, some love combat boots and some love chic sneakers. Whatever your shoe of choice , we know you love them. There's the obvious reason, they're so pretty. Let's face it a bad shoe can destroy all the beauty of a persons outfit just like the perfect shoe serves to complement it. There is a shoe to suit everyone. Let's face it shoes become an extension of our body. My girlfriend says that shoes are wearable art.
Let's chat about the beautiful handmade in Italy Satin Manola Blahnik shoe with the square crystal buckle. Do you remember that scene in Sex in the City where Carrie unboxed her shoes and placed them in that dream closet? Then Big proposes by placing that iconic shoe on her foot. Hello, I do have to admit the way I felt when I put that shoe on for the first time, a Cinderella moment.
My advise: Just do it, go buy those shoes...

The Denim Maxi Skirt
|
This fabulous closet staple is back and it's everywhere.
It's that dependable staple that is season-less and comfortable. It's so easy to dress up or down. All of the designers have reinvented this Classic piece into a contemporary fashion statement piece. It's been quite some time since they have emerged as a key items, so this 2023 the denim skirt trend also provides a reason to buy yourself something new. |
Did you know that the denim maxi skirt was initially crafted by repurposing a pair of jeans in the 1970's? Since its inception, denim was considered exclusively casual. But the styling options for Denim are endless. When it comes to the fit, I recommend looking for a style that hugs your hips.
Recent collections have been all about the lengths or midi's with front slits. There is something out there for everyone. Like your favourite pair of jeans, these are so versatile. You can wear a long denim skirt with loafers, a classic tee and a leather jackets or go for a timeless look and add a skirt, blazer, boots or pumps. So instead of reaching for your favourite blue jeans, the next time you're putting together a casual look, try a denim skirt instead. |
Corduroy is the fall fashion trend which reappears every year.
So what do we think about Corduroy?
We all love a comeback story, and for fashion it's Corduroy, I think this spring expect to see Corduroy will have its moment. It's no secret that fashion trances are cyclical, and what once was considered tacky or outdated can become the latest trend. I was trying to think of the last time I wore corduroy and I think it was when my kids were little. So that was many years ago as my kids are 26,28 and 30. I do remember I had a pair of purple corduroy pants that I was obsessed with. |
So whew we are January 2023 and it's back! Let's face it corduroy exploded in the 1970's, from miniskirts, pants and bags. They were definitely the "Disco" staple with paisley prints. Then in the 1980's and 1990's corduroy was styled more simply, but that showed us how practical a corduroy piece can be. I think they've always been relevant, just like anything they're more trendy at times.
Let's face it, Corduroy isn't going anywhere, the new style of corduroy are fitted and chic. So get ready for the revival.

There is something about the holidays and that statement plaid blazer.One of my favourite trends is a fabulous statement blazer. Plaid is a favourite print of mine for the season, its one that a super classic and trendy at the same time. This one power jacket can really take your look to the next level. A blazer is something that you can throw over many pieces in your closet to create many looks from dresses to jeans and even shorts, the options are endless. You can dress it up or wear it casual.
I purchased this power blazer at Banana Republic and its on sale. It gives me a vintage vibe and the fabric is nice and rich, plus it was a steal. You can style it with any outfit for any occasion. I added the classic Gucci Combat boot to give this look and edge. And wearing a killer pair of shoes is one of the easiest ways to take a basic outfit to the next level. I have to admit I was hesitant to get my first pair of combat boots, but when I saw these Gucci's I knew I would get a lot of wear out of them. |
This blazer will look fabulous with a white shirt and pair of black dress pants, there are endless possibilities.

Its time to throw out the Old Rules
So where did this rule " You can't wear white after labour day" rule come from?
And Just like that..........it's fall and we're packing away our sundresses and summer sandals to make room for our warm sweaters and over the knee boots.
And Just like that..........it's fall and we're packing away our sundresses and summer sandals to make room for our warm sweaters and over the knee boots.
I've always been interested in the stories behind some of the old fashion dress codes. Wearing white in summer makes sense. But, why are we told to wear white only in the summer months?
So I did some research:
I think this has something to do with snobbery in the late 1800.
The wife's of the super rich high society ruled with an iron first after the civil war. As more and more people became millionaires, it was difficult to tell the difference between respectable old money and those with new money. By the late 1800's, in order to tell who was acceptable and who wasn't, the women who were already in felt it was necessary to create dozens of fashion rules that everyone in the know had to follow. This way, if a women showed up at the opera in a dress that cost's more than women make in a year but it had the wrong sleeve length, the women would know not to give her the time of the day. And not wearing white after labour day was one of those mean rules.
Labour day did become a federal holiday in 1894 and society adopted it as ending point for summer fashion . many women ignored this trend including the fabulous Coco Chanel. By the 1950's, women magazine made it clear that white clothing was to be brought out on Memorial Day and went back into storage on labour day.
Now finally fashion is more relaxed about colours to where and when to wear but, you still have those people who say 'that wearing white after Labour Day is unacceptable.
So where do you sit on this?
I love white and will wear it all year long! Here I am transitioning my summer pieces into fall looks. I love fall fashion and all its gorgeous hues. So I am pairing shades of browns with white for fun fall combinations.
