Glimpse at Vogue: The Editor's Eye

Friday, 04 January 2013 | Author: Catherine Horgan |

This is what fascinates me about photo shoots. The emotions that pull you in. I am enjoying Vogue's exclusive clips, The Editor's Eye. You get a real sense of the motivation and point of view behind such a shoot. After having completed a photo shoot with a well known national magazine in November (due out next week), there is nothing more gratifying than looking back at the images, over and over again, reliving each and every moment.

Fall Preview Party at Neiman Marcus SouthPark

Tuesday, 23 August 2011 | Author: Catherine Horgan |

A couple of weeks ago, I attended a special Fall Preview Party at Neiman Marcus SouthPark. It happened to be the same day I received The Book, so I was well armed with my favorite looks. Many of which came straight from 'The Art of Fashion' photo shoot with Drew Barrymore. What a gorgeous spread. And this Tom Ford suit — get out!

The trends that Neiman Marcus will focus on this fall are bold gold, bordeaux, leather, color blocking, fur, handheld bags, lady chic, pumps and shimmer. Here are a few of my picks to get your blood pumping!

The night wouldn't be complete without visiting with two of my very favorite models, Brooke and Starr — as gorgeous as they are talented!

Zealous Neons

Tuesday, 12 July 2011 | Author: Catherine Horgan |

You may have noticed the return of the neons. Does that mean you have to dive right in? Not necessarily.

Neons are a trend. One that I observe rather than follow. I prefer keeping to my own style and mixing in a pinch of trend here and there. For example, three months ago I added neon green shoe laces to my white chucks. The cropped trench I bought in January has neon orange piping. That's about the extent of what I can pull off.

In order for neons to work, you have to own them. Wholeheartedly. Your style personality and coloring dictate what's most appropriate. Are you quiet or loud? Or, somewhere in between? How you interpret this particular trend is what makes you unique.

I will not pretend that I don't love punchy color — especially the unexpected pulled together. The red eye shadow with the turquoise earrings and neon green jacket below are kickin'! However, I reserve this for photo shoots. Just wish I thought of this color combination first!

The STYLE Society gals have gone bi-weekly through the end of summer. The style love will still be passed onto you, no fret. However, don't be shy about checking in on the action in between weeks.

Speaking of action, there is plenty! You can enter to win a Mauboussin jewelry giveaway, go backstage with yours truly at the Oscar de la Renta event in Charlotte, and get the low down on city-specific stylish stores, colorful outfits, pretty hair accessories and royal wedding finds! Tea and crumpets anyone?
