Hats by Selima Leave No Head Uncovered

by

Hats have had a long progression throughout history, becoming not only a uniform of fashion but also an art form.  Hats by Selima are a tasteful blend of art and functionality that lend no excuse for a head left uncovered.  Hats by Selima are hand blocked and hand sewn in New York City, making each hat one of a kind.  Patrons are invited to view the many ready to wear hats available in Selima’s Atelier shop, or custom design their own hat.  With new summer style options varying from bandito, fisherman, lace beret, and many in between, there is the perfect piece for every hat enthusiast.  A hat is the most noticeable fashion accessory a person can wear – what’s your excuse not to check out Hats by Selima today?

Go Minimal or Go Home

by

Did your jaw drop as far as ours when you saw Claire Danes and Emma Stone at the Golden Globes? What a bold move, to embrace spring’s hot minimalism trend amid a sea of beading and bling. Yet, if you remember our coverage of the Prada and Jil Sander Spring 2011 collections, you probably saw this coming. Bright, matte, “neon” colors, simple shapes, and pared down details are the way to do less. And we like less —  a lot.

Emporio Armani keeps it cool and blue with these inky shades for $175, available at Armani 5th Ave in NYC.

Bright pops of color are a great way to stand out on a crisp spring day. Peter Som manages to make a snakeskin skirt light and airy, $2,850 at Peter Som, NYC, and Céline color blocks a silk crepe shirt, $870 at Céline, Bal Harbour, FL.

Just because you’re doing a pared-down look doesn’t mean you have to skimp on the accessories. Rock this delicate gold and quartz Dinah ring from Tous for $335. Contrast it with Reed Krakoff‘s sporty yet sophisticated pink alligator strap watch for $2,395; call 877-733-3525.

Add a little sheen to all the matte with this crossbody patent leather bag from Burberry for $1,195.

Every girl knows the shoes can make or break the outfit. Pair Christian Louboutin patent leather pumps for $695 with primary colors to turn up the neon volume. Call 310-247-9300.
