Paris Fashion Week SS 2013....Emily

Emily Weiss from Into The Gloss, before Balmain, Paris, September 2012.

Autumn is the time for crackling fires (or at least pretending in front of a heater!), steaming hot chocolate topped with gooey marshmallows, unearthing gloves, beanies and bedsocks from their summer retreat in the wardrobe, bracing country walks followed by long pub lunches....and velvet. Autumn and winter are the time for sumptuous, rich fabrics like Emily's beautiful velvet blazer.

Recreate Emily's look (kind of):

By Malene Birger Malagasia velvet blazer, Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent Ombre velvet blazer, Gucci velvet and satin jacket, Bop Basics The Fiance velvet blazer, Aubin &Wills Midgrove satin-trimmed velvet blazer, or Kookai washed velvet jacket

Rag & Bone/JEAN high rise skinny jeans, MiH Ellsworth skinny jeans, or ASOS supersoft skinny jeans

Christian Louboutin Love Me 85 leather and mesh pumps, Elizabeth and James Clark pointed toe pumps, or Jimmy Choo Lennox patent pumps

Stella McCartney Aviator sunglasses, Marc by Marc Jacobs oversized aviator sunglasses, or Topshop Aviator sunglasses

New York Fashion Week SS 2013....Emily

 Emily Weiss from Into The Gloss, before A Show, NYC, September 2012.

Like this look from NYC in February, Emily looks fabulous wearing white (and black) and reinforces that white/ivory is not just for the summer months. Love the leather detailing on her sleeve - it teams so beautifully with her black jeans.

Recreate Emily's look (kind of):

White or ivory sweater with black accents - By Malene Birger Delica lace trimmed ivory sweater, IRO Piper sweater, Aiko Kwan sweater,  Elizabeth and James leather trim sweater, Proenza Schouler wool sweater, ASOS lambswool sweater with black zipper back or Yigal Azrouel honeycomb sweater

Aviator sunglasses: Marc by Marc Jacobs Oversized Aviator metal sunglasses, Stella McCartney Aviator sunglasses, Topshop Aviator sunglasses 

New York Fashion Week AW 2012/13...Emily

Into the Gloss's Emily Weiss, after Rodarte, NYC, February 2012.

A lesson in how to wear white/neutrals (and bare legs!) in the depths of winter....layering (note Emily's heavy sweater under her coat) + leather skirt +  heated taxi or car within easy reach ;)

Recreate Emily's look (kind of):

Oscar de la Renta coat, Miu Miu mohair coat, Ellery coat, Reed Krakoff A-line coat, or ASOS WHITE belted coat

Vince leather pencil skirt, Diane von Furstenberg Clover leather pencil skirt, Theyskens' Theory Skolla leather skirt, ASOS Urban Code leather pencil skirt or Milly Edith leather pencil skirt

Joseph waffle knit sweater, Theory Sutton Athos sweater, Karl Geometric intarsia sweater

Christian Louboutin Zigouwi sandals

Reed Krakoff Uniform white leather tote

Paris Fashion Week SS 2012...Emily

Beautiful Emily Weiss from Into the Gloss after Louis Vuitton. I love that printed dresses are having their moment. A pretty floral on Julia Sarr-Jamois (see the post below) and shoes, masquerade masks and gloves on Emily's dress. Genius.
