  Combat Couture Couture, Hot Designer, Streetwear | (2)

  There's nothing like waking up on a gorgeous summer morning, knowing you have the day off. I think I'm going to get highlights. I'm still debating what to do for the 4th. As much as I'd like to do the Cape thing I just don't think I'm up for the traffic battle. Plus, I move into my new place on the 6th so there is still much packing to be done. Speaking of battles, I'm sure traffic and everything is going to be crazy in the city this weekend. The whole thing reminds me of my post a couple days ago about ...

  “I be up in the gym just working on my fitness…*” Eco-Couture, Fashion, Hot Designer | (2)

  *Sorry for the Fergie reference this early in the morning... Anyway, I know I may seem kinda two-dimensional when you read these posts... the whole court vs. couture thing. One thing that's extremely important to me that I rarely write about is the gym. I try to go everyday, but of course life gets in the way from time to time. I used to be a super-competitive runner... I have to say its absolutely the best therapy out there. No matter how bad my day is, I can usually reconcile things with a couple laps around the pond or a good ...

  A Sli Way to Start Summer Hot Designer, Streetwear | (1)

  It's officially summer! That means roof deck parties (if and when I ever move), trips to the Cape and some much needed vacation time! Of course there's the whole "planning of the summer wardrobe" as well...I wish I could say I was more deliberate about the clothes I wear... to be honest, I usually just grab the first thing in my closet and roll with it. It helps when your closet is stocked with great brands like Asli Filinta. Her line of t-shirts, scarves and hats are so unique and so intriguing that they're sure to look amazing with anything! Hailing ...

  Sara Campbell’s Tent Sale (this weekend) Hot Designer | (1)

  Yesterday Lauren suggested that we go to Sara Campbell's tent sale after work. I have to admit I was a bit skeptical... First, I'm always exhausted after work and yesterday was an especially draining day. Second, it required me driving in Boston which is something I definitely don't enjoy (I think I honked at about 10 cars as I tried to follow her through the South End). Lastly, I wasn't convinced I was going to love the clothes, though I have to admit everything Lauren wears from SC is gorgeous. After paying the small admission fee (the money going to charity, of ...

  Feral Childe Hot Designer | (0)

  I can't really concentrate... game 6 and all. I know I'm going to be a zombie tomorrow morning so I thought I'd post now... Feral Childe is a cool Brooklyn based design house that features crisp, clean elegant designs. "When Alice Wu and Moriah Carlson first met, it was over a sink full of broken eggshells they were hired to wash for an art installation. The fast friends imagined creating a compact wardrobe for their new lives in the city. In their next day jobs, each worked in an office and faxed the other new drawings and ideas every morning. In their ...

  Très Devine Eco-Couture, Hot Designer, Streetwear | (0)

  Back when I was in undergrad, my parents always encouraged me to take practical classes. You know, classes that would give me information that I could use sometime later on in my life. You can imagine their... frustration when I enrolled in art, philosophy and yes, Egyptology. Brown actually has one of best (and only) Egyptology programs out there. Anyway, I took a class that focused on the Egyptian Book of the Dead (I was kinda weird). By the end of the class I was convinced I was going to get a line of hieroglyphics tattooed down my back. ...

  Rainy Sunday Hot Designer | (0)

  It's a rainy Sunday here in Boston. Since everything in my life is about to change soon, I thought I would play around with different wordpress themes today. I'm already sick of the new-improved theme. If you have any suggestions, drop me a line brooke@urbansocialite.com (or use the contact form). I should have something set by the end of the day! UPDATE: Ugh. This was a harder task than I thought. I'm not 100% happy with the new site and will likely make updates as the week goes on. Please bear with me! A few of you have e-mailed about the pretty ...

  Beat (and shop) LA!! Dresses/ Party, Fashion, Hot Designer | (0)

  There's nothing like the heat and humidity of an East Coast Spring!* Anyway, if you're a super Celtics fan to the point you actually followed the team back to LA for tonights game, I figured you'd want a shopping destination. Be sure to stop by the apartment 3 boutique and check out Three-LA while you're there. Designers Kristin Knauff and Christiaan Gunther incorporate vintage looks with modern silhouettes in their playful yet practical collection. Using fabrics like soft Jersey and poplin, the collection has a core group of standard pieces and neat accents like detachable ascots, fitted jackets and apron skirts to ...
