Bold & Basic!

Reds
I am a HUGE fan of basic black & white combos & it turns out I'm not the only one!               It doesn't get any more basic than black and white, but as so many spring runways demonstrate, these contrasting neutrals are anything but boring this season. Statement-making black and white prints--think: graphic grids and standout stripes--offer a modern way to wear the season's mod looks and work just as well in real life as they do on the runways. Best of all, this is a trend you can try right now; just look to style stars like Chloe Moretz and Anja Rubik to see how it's done. On The Runway Marc Jacobs mined the '60s for his S/S 13 collection, which was rife…

Nice Watch!!

Reds
Of all the essential accessories out there, the watch is probably the most underrated, as people tend think of it as a merely functional piece. We feel quite differently, however, and believe that when chosen correctly, a timepiece can actually highlight your individual sensibilities while adding an element of sophistication to your look. As part of your everyday wardrobe, it's important to invest in the right ticker, which is why we're showcasing some of the season's chicest styles, from oversized menswear iterations to colored versions, in today's Market Watch roundup. Celebrity Inspiration We love the vintage Rolex Ashley Olsen wore with a shirt by The Row and vintage Chanel skirt at the J. Mendel S/S 13 show during NYFW. Worn alone, the menswear-inspired timepiece works overtime as a chic bracelet. Opting for…
