I can barely contain myself.

The ready-to-wear collections from THE ROW and Jason Wu are coming to Neiman Marcus SouthPark in Charlotte, NC.

THE ROW (top two on left) pays homage to London fashion house Savile Row, a fitting title for the luxury line. Since its launch, the brand has expanded to include a range of eyewear, handbags and ready-to-wear. THE ROW reflects a sense of relaxed and timeless elegance, focusing on fine fabrics and the perfect fit. Solid colors dominate the collection, which includes simple but sophisticated separates and fine-tuned frocks. The trademark look is a menswear-inspired aesthetic with ultra-feminine tailoring.

Jason Wu (top two on right) counters with ladylike elegance and impeccable detail. Subtlety is the art of Jason Wu’s fashions. The former Narcisco Rodriguez intern, whose work took root in years of doll designing, is known for his ability to create stunning, often intricate designs that appear effortless. Wu’s 2006 premiere collection earned him the Fashion Group International’s Rising Star award in 2008.

This June, Charlotteans rejoice as they get their hands on serious fabulousness from these coveted designers.

Lanvin Silk Crepe Dress

Cutouts and asymmetrical styles are still the rage this spring. And you can count on Lanvin to make it classy, yet sexy. This beautiful silk crepe dress features one draped sleeve and a black lycra bodysuit underneath. No accessories needed, accept a fabulous belt and ankle strap heels. Skin takes center stage!

Alexander McQueen: Two-Tone Zip Around

Monday, 18 February 2013 | Author: Catherine Horgan |

My wallet hasn't changed in ions. Truthfully, I can't imagine stepping outside of the large zip around wallet.

In fact, my current wallet is tangerine and the one I'm eyeing, by Alexander McQueen, is two-toned orange and red. I'm not sure anyone would notice the change.

This particular style is so versatile and holds absolutely everything (and then some). It looks good on its own, outside of a purse, too.

Why change a good thing?

Fendi SS13

Thursday, 07 February 2013 | Author: Catherine Horgan |

Fendi packed a punch on the runway last September for spring 2013. From the color palette, textures and cuts to the accessories and makeup. Out of this world! Probably the best Fendi collection yet.

One of my favorite color pairings was an unexpected mustardy-daffodil yellow and bright peach. Delish! As for the accessories, the handbags slated for spring are gorgeous. Those studded dice attached to a few of them — eye catching fun, that may never hit the stores. However, the bangle bracelets will. And they are definitely on my list.

See by Chloé SS13

Sunday, 03 February 2013 | Author: Catherine Horgan |

You know how I feel about Chloé. Well, you can bet that I'm also diggin' the See by Chloé line. It's pretty fantabulous!

Light leathers hit the streets this spring, providing many options to toughen up your look. The continuing trend of pattern on pattern allows plenty of room to take a little risk (come on, you know you want to). And this practical, not to mention adorable, jumpsuit equals instant chic. For those in search of comfort with excellent styling, this is your collection.
