As one who has never been afraid of prints, Suno truly appeals to my colorful and bold side of dressing. The brand, which started just in 2008 by Max Osterweis, inspired by his Kenyan textile collection, the brand continues to bring the garments full circle from the original sentiments by employing expert Kenyan tailors to execute the designs. Enjoy my top picks from the resort 2012 collection!

Did you JUST realize Father’s Day is this Sunday, June 19th? Don’t worry; there is still plenty of time (pun intended) to get Dad an ultra-hip, fashionable gift, like the latest in watch technology and design from Kenneth Cole!
Kenneth Cole just came out with his latest styles (see below for some) that includes his popular Touch Screen watch with Digi-Touch Technology™ but also go traditional with a twist: automatic watches, powered by the motion of your body. Pretty cool, huh? In this photo, I am wearing the Stainless Steel Case with White Ceramic Bracelet, $195 (courtesy of Kenneth Cole), which features a liquid crystal display, engraved bevels, and fold-over clasp with push-button safety (my favorite feature!). I got a ton of links taken it for it to fit on my delicate writs, but once sized on me, I think it looks pretty sharp and lends it self a unisex appeal (love it against the white of my Macbook).
The line is priced from $85 and is available at KennethColeTime.com, in-store at Kenneth Cole locations or via Macy’s, Dillard’s or Nordstrom.
Happy Father’s Day!

TOMS, the brand known for cute canvas shoes and giving a pair to a child for every purchase made, unlocked its mystery box last week to reveal the addition of sunglasses to its current line. Changing from a shoe company to a One for One company, each time you purchase a pair of sunglasses from TOMS, know that you are helping to give sight to someone in need (in the form of medical care, glasses or surgery).

From our friends at thefind.com:
If actual feather-embellished skirts are a little too flapper-fabulous for your taste, I don’t blame you. It’s fierce on the runway, but it’s a bold statement to make for even the most fashionable of real folk. But you can still rock the feathered look without looking like you’re molting while you’re working the dance floor (or the yacht, beach party, what have you!). Feather printed dresses help capture that carefree inspiration without incorporating real feathers, and the look is definitely more casual than embellished pieces, but let’s face it — they’re much easier to wear! Think of feather prints as the boho-chic answer to last year’s Ikat and tribal-inspired trend. The look is pretty, earthy, and free as a bird without verging on “hippie,” as long as you don’t go overboard with the wind-swept hair and 60s circular shades, of course. It’s summery without being too literal and on-trend without verging on “passing fad of the moment.”
