Beach Cool

Posted by: la fashionista on: May 20, 2008

The Cannes Film Festival officially began last week, and in honor of the locale–Cannes is between Nice and St. Tropez in the South of France–let’s take a look at some great fashionable wear for the beach. Whether the goal is to hit up the local boardwalk or to take a trip to Miami, you still [...]

Shoshanna Lonstein Trunk Show

Posted by: la fashionista on: April 11, 2008

I will admit that I have associated the name Shoshanna Lonstein (Gruss) with Jerry Seinfeld. I recall her walking the red carpet as a seventeen-year-old high school senior accompanying her 40-something year old sitcom star boyfriend to the Emmy’s. Now, she has made a name for herself as a fashion designer. Her line embodies the [...]

The Most Wonderful Time

Posted by: la fashionista on: December 21, 2007

I’ve always been prone to procrastination. I’m not quite sure why. I do know that I was born one week early, so maybe after that day, I decided, “Maybe I should take things slow?” And, boy, do I! Four days before Christmas, and I have just begun my holiday shopping. Not to worry, though; I [...]

After the Purge

Posted by: la fashionista on: October 9, 2007

On Saturday, I did what I had been putting off for months–I cleaned out my closet. What I thought would initially take an hour to do turned into a five hour ordeal not helped by the fact that I had my Salsa Mix blasting on the iTunes. Every so often, after emptying one dresser drawer, [...]

It’s Alice Temperley

Posted by: la fashionista on: September 21, 2007

About a month ago, I wrote that Erin Fetherston would be creating a collection for Target’s GO. International. I read this news on Target’s own press page. While it is true that she is designing a line for Target, it won’t hit stores until November (a misreading on my part). Instead, it is Alice Temperley, [...]

This show’s a keeper

Posted by: la fashionista on: September 7, 2007

Tonight was the debut of Tim Gunn’s Guide to Style on Bravo. There are not enough words in the English language to express how much I respect Tim Gunn’s thoughts on style. I even bought his book this summer. He’s quite the erudite fellow. The show, in my opinion, is a bit different than the [...]

Erin Fetherston: Next in Line for GO. International

Posted by: la fashionista on: August 24, 2007

Erin Fetherston, an American designer who is based in Paris, has been tapped to create a line for Target’s GO. International campaign. I do love the campaign. I’ve bought a couple pieces from two past designers: a filmy white Tara Jarmon button-down tunic and a black cotton cropped Behnaz Sarafpour swing jacket. The Erin Fetherston [...]


la fashionista has had an interest in fashion and style since childhood when she first saw her mother dress in the various fashion of the 80s. Her mother was also a great seamstress, which was a definite influence on la fashionista's foray into fashion. Sadly, her mother's sewing talent did not get passed on to la fashionista.

But that doesn't mean that she doesn't still love talking about fashion. Because she does!
