Style Direction: Fall // Winter 2010

Posted on November 15th, 2010 by by Nubby

Yesterday afternoon, in my dining room. Lately, I’ve been thinking more about defining my style and developing a strong, unified look for each season (remember Gala’s Psychedelic Ladies Who Lunch?) I’m still very much drawn to black but I want the silhouettes to be sleek and European-inspired. And, I want the dark palette to be [...]

SUPER FEMME! A Collaboration with GeeWaWa and Solestruck

Posted on September 1st, 2010 by by Nubby

The GeeWaWa Femme (a.k.a. THE CLAW) is definitely not for the faint of heart. Equal parts Gene Simmons and Minnie Mouse, it’s a monstrous powerhouse that screams, “I mean business!” when you enter the room. The gnarliest mary jane on the planet, the Femme allows you to look cute while kicking ass. I had never [...]

Beauty Products: 2010 Edition

Posted on August 23rd, 2010 by by Nubby

One of the most common questions I get asked on a regular basis is which beauty products I use. Though I’m not obsessive with trying out new products, I do keep a regular routine and have quite a few favorites from a handful of brands. Lip Products First off, I discovered M•A•C makeup in middle [...]

Nixon Time Teller P Watch

Posted on February 24th, 2010 by by Nubby

It must be Watch Week around here. On Monday, I was waxing poetic about Swatch and today, it’s Nixon! Last month, I was standing around at Nemo when I looked down at one of the producer’s arms (Hi, Megan!) and noticed this watch. Quite dramatically, I reached for it and demanded to know where she [...]

The Flat Iron Diaries

Posted on January 11th, 2010 by by Nubby

I am one of those people with fairly straight hair, but sometimes, fairly straight just won’t cut it. There are times where I want my hair to look perfectly sleek and in those moments, I reach for my flat iron. Unfortunately, while I was vacationing in Florida back in November, my flat iron died quite [...]

I have a special announcement to make….ModCloth just named a dress after me! What an epic way to end 2009! Of the dress, ModCloth says: Named after one of our favorite fashion blogs, this little black dress will help you market yourself as a master of entrepreneurial style. Crisp, curving seams contour the bust and [...]

Style Essentials

Posted on November 1st, 2009 by by Nubby

Do you have a reliable arsenal of wardrobe basics that you depend upon, day after day? I know that I do. I started thinking of the tried and true pieces that are necessities in my wardrobe and compiled a list. Some have been in my possession for as little as two weeks and some as [...]

The Tribute

Posted on September 13th, 2009 by by Nubby

It’s impossible to do a legend proper justice. True icons make everything look easy because they have such an abundance of raw talent. I’m not a dancer or a singer, just a graphic designer. I can at the very least interpret the style of those I admire and give it my own spin. All good [...]

Michael Jackson’s Influence on Fashion

Posted on August 10th, 2009 by by Nubby

Even before his untimely death, it was quite apparent that Michael Jackson was having his moment in fashion (most notably witnessed in the recent Balmain collections). Now that he’s left us, the sartorial tributes will surely escalate. The fall fashion lineups have taken a cue from his 80s style with sequins, military jackets, skinny silhouettes, [...]

Style Signatures

Posted on March 29th, 2009 by by Nubby

Whether we’re conscious of it or not, we all have our own little style signatures. It could be something as simple as a particular shade of red lipstick that you wear every day, a brand preference that winds throughout your entire wardrobe, a dash of a texture that you always work into an outfit (sequins, [...]
