Splurge of the Week:
Reiss 'Evan' Seamed Jacket

Reiss 'Even' Seamed Jacket with Waist Detail $500. Available in Deer or Black.


From a men's tailoring store in London circa 1971, Reiss today has 90 stores world wide and offers fashion forward, innovative and original designs for both men and women. I like the simple and understated designs yet modern and classic.

Winter is all about layering and it is not easy to look fashionable as it seems. The key is structured pieces. How to look chic amidst the snow and slush can be challenging. Your jacket or coat is a focal piece. It has to be stylish and functional. Just like this Reiss seamed jacket with waist detail. Made with wool and cashmere, this is an investment you won't regret. Pair with pants, denim jeans or even over a dress. The tie belt gives it an extra oomph.

You can find more pieces like this at Reiss online store. And make sure to check out their 12 Days of Christmas - exclusive discounts&prizes to be won every day!

Crimes of Fashion:
Comme Des Garcons Half Jacket

Comme Des Garcons Half Jacket $2,850.00 ssense.com


I've been a fan of Comme Des Garcons since I high school. The fashion-forward, edgy and unique designs gravitated me to the iconic Japanese fashion label. But sometimes their pieces can be to 'out-there'. Take for example this Half Jacket. This deconstructed jacket with a cropped sleeveless tank is undeniably a piece of wearable art. Unfortunately, when it comes to functionality and practicality it doesn't score well. Specially when you take into consideration the hefty price tag.

Stella McCartney Citrus Print Silk Skirt

Stella McCartney Silk Citrus Print Skirt $1,411.00 Browns Fashion


I absolutely fell in love with Stella McCartney's series of garments with citrus prints from her Spring 2011 Collection. I first saw one of the dresses in W Magazine and I right then I knew this print will be a must-have for spring and summer. The skirt is very wearable. I don't know about you but this print just puts a smile on my face. Maybe because it screams sunshine!

You can dress it up with a chic blouse or for more of a casual look a sleeveless top. Pair it with pumps or wedge. The silhouette is just perfect. This an investment that you can enjoy for years.

If you feel like stepping up the price tag and the look, consider this sexy yet elegant backless satin citrus print dress. Funny how the price is dictated by the fabric. Twice the fabric, twice the price. But who cares, if you're splurging right?

Marc Jacobs Floral Applique Dress

Marc Jacobs Floral Applique Dress $4,615.00 Browns Fashion


I wish I can say that Spring is just around the corner but we're not quite there yet. In fact, Winter hasn't even peaked yet. Anyhow, it is not to early to shop for Spring. It can be therapeutic actually. This Marc Jacobs Floral Applique Dress blooms like first flowers of Spring. The delicately hand finished applique flowers gives it a very fresh, feminine and lovely look.

I can only imagine the painstaking hours of sewing the appliques together. I'm sure that's what is reflected on the price. I can see this dress being worn by a Spring bride. Also, this is a vintage garment in the making which would never go out of style. A worthy investment.

Tory Burch Cable-Knit Trimmed Sweater in Ivory or Grey $350.00 Saks


Sweaters are a staple for fall. This season, the key is looking for interesting, unique and of course stylish pieces. This Tory Burch sweater is a perfect example the cable-knit trims gives it some edge and texture. I also love the contrasting color of the funnel neck and cuff. Not only the garment itself is luxurious the price is as well. A fabulous investment your wardrobe won't mind.
