What FPD Has Been Up to Lately

by

We’ve been attending so many fashion previews and events our heads have been spinning! Check out the cool stuff we’ve seen, coming in Fall 2010, and please excuse the cell phone-quality photos!

The Columbia Sportswear Preview

This brand is definitely on the cutting edge of technology; come winter, I will definitely look to them for their unique technologies to keep one warm, especially with these boots for men and women, that has a removable battery to generate heat – how cool is that?

Nine West Interim Preview

The new collection for Nine West features some of the most creative, opulent adornment I’ve seen on footwear, at an affordable price point, for some time! Be sure to check it out!

Sorel Fall/Winter 2010 Preview

As you know, Sorel is my most favorite footwear brand for surviving inclement weather, with next season’s offerings including a  range of fun fabrications, fur, and of course, incredibly warmth and durability.

Jaeger Fall/Winter 2010

Jaeger is back! The famed British brand is surfacing in the USA again for Fall 2010! The new collection features fabulous accessories, sexy knits, bouclé, and much more — once you’ve checked out their offerings, I guarantee you will be smitten too!

RM By Roland Mouret, Jonathan Saunders, and Alexander Berardi Fall/Winter 2010

Please dress me for my next major event! Please!

Lauren Bush FEED 1 Guatamala at Lord & Taylor

Each bag has proceeds going to United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF)  from the “FEED 1 Guatemala” pouch and “FEED 3 Guatemala” pouch and tote styles to promote health and well-being for children in Guatemala — what’s not to love?


KIN Free Concert – The Ting Tings!

KIN, Microsoft’s brand new phone with a focus on social media, has staged free concerts in four cities across the country – I was excited to attend the latest one with The Ting Tings this past weekend! The word got out about the concerts solely through social media, so follow the KIN Facebook page to get the details about next weekend and potentially other cities. You can also connect with KIN via Twitter.

Forever 21 Pick of the Day: Pleated Hip Tank Dress, $19.80

by

What can be more characteristic of summer than taking a leisurely stroll along the beach in a summer frock, basking in the sun and exchanging ‘first crush’ stories? To Fashion Pulse Daily, the frock is what we most care about, of course, but the rest is a fun of ton too!  If you’re not into the floral explosion trend or have already overloaded your closet with roses, tropical leaves and daffodils, why not make your next purchase this Pleated Hip Tank Dress, $19.80? It might not be reminiscent of Tahiti, but it is certainly just as apposite for the vivacity of the season. Yes, vivacity – as well as sophistication, which the pleated accents are sure to add to your look. The elastic waistband accentuates your silhouette so that you may be as hot as the weather. Excuse my corniness in using this phrase (a word of advice, dudes: never use that as a pick-up line), but, hey, it speaks some truth.

Tell Dad to Watch It… (LollieShopping Guest Post)

by

From our friends at LollieShopping:

Father’s Day is drawing near, and I think a nice watch makes a great gift for any dad of any age. With our society’s new digital lifestyle, we don’t really need watches anymore. If you want to know what time it is, just check your phone. Because of that, watches are more than a useful timepiece. Today, watches are an important fashion accessory, especially for men.

Men keep it simple when it comes to accessories, and for most men, a watch is the one and only piece of jewelry they wear. That’s why when you buy your favorite dad a watch for Father’s Day, it has to be a really attractive one. You want to get him a watch that draws attention and gets him some compliments.

But you also want to get him a watch that suits his personality and lifestyle. So I put together a few tips to help guide you when you are shopping for a watch for Father’s Day.

Corporate Dad
If the dad you are shopping for works in an office environment you want to focus on buying him a sleek watch with no flash. The corporate dad needs to make a professional impression, but he also wants to appear successful. Even if he is in the midst of climbing the corporate ladder, buy him a watch that looks like it belongs on the wrist of a CEO. It will give him the boost of confidence he needs to land his desired promotion.

Dad the Conqueror
For the dad who literally loves to climb mountains, you have to get him a sports watch. And today’s sports watches are really attractive, so he can wear it while he’s scuba diving or meeting his friends for happy hour.  There are different sports watches for different sports. So, if he’s into water sports, be sure to get him a diving watch. If he’s into bicycling, get him a cycling watch. If he’s into climbing, get him a durable watch that gives him altitude information.

Seal the Deal Dad
The kind of dad that is a mover and shaker needs the kind of watch that steals the show. The watch brand Invicta features a selection of gold tone, mixed metal and brightly colored face watches that make dad the center of attention wherever he goes. Pick a watch that shines as bright as his vivacious personality.
