Since the excitement over the U.S. opening of Topshop has yet to die down, I thought it would be apropos to throw in a Topshop Pick of the Day! I immediately gravitated toward this Mesh Ring Necklace, $30 for its unique shape and super thin chainlinks. The chainlinks give it the high street element that Topshop really works to the max, ina refined shape that can work even in the most conservative of offices.

If it’s going to be a look of the day from Valentino, you better believe it will be something in “Valentino Red!”
I held my breathe as the design transfer went from Signore Valentino to Alessandra Facchinetti and then rapidly onto Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Piccioli — what would be embraced in the designs besides the signature red color? How would the house that Valentino built be elavated upon, and not deviated from, by the new designers. So far, so good, I must say, and this dress from spring 2009 is a great example, in my opinion, if not an excellent example how the designers have embodied the sexy, sophisticated aesthetic of the brand, while moving it into a future-thinking model. The draping, the twists, the drama — very Italian, and very modern.

The slouchy hobo is a refreshing contrast to the structured handbags from winter. It’s time to celebrate sunny days ahead. From the ultra luxe Jimmy Choo “Saba” hobo to the Xhilaration version from Target there is a slouchy hobo for all budgets. So come on, let your hair down, toss on a loose and flowy maxi dress and don’t forget the mani-pedi. To complete your look a pair of flip-flops and ’80s inspired shades are in order.
