American Express is keen on making Small Business Saturday a thing, and this weekend, the credit card giant hosted a shopping extravaganza in NYC’s NoLita/SoHo district to help support shops and restaurants owned by regular Joes – and not huge corporate conglomerates. The event drew quite a notable crowd: Coco Rocha, Hilary Rhoda, Hannah Bronfman and Marine the Dog all showed up to support the affair. From 7 p.m. to midnight, guests shopped at participating retail locations, took in performances, dined and sipped cocktails in support of the little guys, those businesses that don’t come with an IPO. 

Click through to see some snaps from the event and if you haven’t already, support small businesses this Cyber Monday by buying online from your favorite boutique or artisanal shop.  (more…)

The minute the cover surfaced on our forums, members began to weigh in. “That’s fast! I didn’t expect her to get any UK mags. Reminds me very much of her US Vogue story, zoomed in. This is a very good start,” commented Benn98.

“She is a Beauty. I like the cover a lot,” complimented a satisfied fashionlover2001.

Miss Dalloway was clearly an admirer and wrote, “Really beautiful January cover, she looks stunning.”

Also on board was GIVENCHYlover, who proclaimed, “OMG stunning cover, love the hair!”

Cosmic Voices added that Bazaar‘s cover with Reese is “much better than her Vogue cover [from October 2014].”

But not everyone was as content. “What a post-production! I can’t recognize her on this cover,” slammed narcyza.

“Same old same old… from her and the mag,” added an underwhelmed kokobombon.

The rumor mill strikes again. Johnny Coca, the head design director for leather goods, accessories, shoes and jewelry for Celine since 2010, has been tapped as Mulberry’s new creative director. Coca succeeds Emma Hill, who turned in her papers approximately 17 months ago.

Whispers pinning the designer as the front-runner on Mulberry’s short list began as far back as the beginning of October. That list included names from Erdem to former Chloe Creative Director Hannah MacGibbon, Roland Mouret and former Issa Creative Director Blue Farrier. 

Coca will report to Chairman and CEO Godfrey Davis, and his duties will include accessories, ready-to-wear and windows. He begins his new post July 8, 2015.

The Bachelor’s Laurina Fleure looked adorable, wearing a floral cami tucked into a silk-lemon full-circle skirt (from her online boutique Pialia, which she promotes whenever and wherever she can).

Polo is the best time for a cutesy twin set, with basketballer Elizabeth Cambage opting for Zimmermann’s embroidered crop and midi skirt. She made it daytime-appropriate with nude sandals, and a neutral wide-brim hat by Lack of Color. (more…)
