The blazer has always been considered a rather androgynous wardrobe staple for women. Becoming popular during the power-dressing era of the 1980s, it’s had a bit of a makeover since those days. From donning large shoulder pads and oversized lapels, to a collarless, more cropped style during the ‘90s, to the oversized and longer-lengths we...

Every season, there are always one or two trends which seem to out-do others also in the sartorial stakes.

While the demand for fast fashion has showed no signs of slowing down, the enthusiasm for second hand clothing has certainly seen a rise in interest...

Gossip Girl
Blair Waldorf once said “Fashion is the most powerful art there is” and she was just as right then as she is now. Fast forward some ten years and today, a whole decade on, we still find Waldorf’s words ringing true. From plaid and pussy bows to sequins and lace the Upper East Siders took...
