Ok, ok--I know. This might be a bit much for summer. But, as you know, we've never been ones to encourage sensibility over style. And while you may not want to wear this to the beach with your sister's kids, as a bikini cover-up at a rooftop bar-b-que--it's a guaranteed photo-op. Trust.
Hi Guys!
So, as you imagine, our NYC pop-up this weekend was a smashing success. It was such a pleasure to meet and greet all our east coast clients, talk shop (literally and figuratively), sip a cocktail (or two) and get to know you. In fact, the event was so fantastic that the event's been blogged, written and up and posted all over the wires. Here's a few of our write-ups (plus a rave review for this blog from the sundance channel!) Check 'em out!
Good news travels fast! It's only Day 2 of our SATC-themed pop-up and tales of the sale have hit the wires hard! Check out what a few of the savviest stylists already have to say:
Ok, nothing says fun-in-the-sun like a nautical motif. It's an iconic theme that all the majors have rocked, from Bridget Bardot to Jean Paul Gaultier. We know that you must have stacks and piles of striped boating tees, fisherman sweaters, and canvas caps. That's why we tugged (get it? tee hee) out these Prada lucite nautical pins. They'd be oh-so-adorable pinned on a sweater, but personally, I'd use them as cardigan closures (forget about buttons!) with a long cardi wrapped just below the waist or pinned willy-nilly about the long shoulder straps on a beloved leather tote.
OK--so we know we've been hyping our SATC/NYC pop-up pretty hard. And we know that some of you may have well . . . hard feelings that you can't attend. We understand and certainly don't expect each and everyone of you that lives say, west of the Hudson, to hop on a plane and head to the Big Apple this weekend (of course, if you did--we'd love to have you. The more the merrier!) 
OMG! Our third In Style Post is LIVE! We've picked a few pieces from our SATC inspired collection that we're showing this weekend in NYC. Be sure to check out the In Style posting for a preview!~
OMG! Just wanted to post before boarding our flight to NYC! So, here's the dilly-yo: our thursday night shindig is booked solid. BUT--no need to fret. We still have room on the lists Friday and Saturday. Soooooo, if you want to come by, rsvp to yes@gckpartners.com ASAP!
Now that summer is here, we know you've been cruising Rodeo in search of that perfect summer dress. You're probably thinking of something pretty, printed, and polished. But whatever will you wear with your fab find? Summer calls for fashion's best and brightest colors. You can get away with being more frilly, more flouncy, and more feminine. That's why we picked these Christian Dior platform heels with a sqaure chunky heel. They're fashion forward without being too over the top. And the chain detailing gives them a bit of an edge so they aren't too girly. Terrific for your tootsies!
5 is a magic number. Just ask CoCo Chanel, who allegedly was told by a fortune teller that the number five held secret powers for the young seamstress. Who knows if the legend is steeped in truth, but Chanel did name the fragrance that launched a thousand credit cards after the number. Incidentally, the perfume she chose was the 5th scent brought to her to sample.
Ok, as far as accessories are concerned, a Hermes scarf is absolutely essential. So when I spotted this scarf-come-shawl-come-blouse, I just had to post it. Live to love it, ladies!
There are certain pieces that a gal buys on a whim, perhaps she'll wear it once or twice during a certain season but then is banished to relative obscurity, never to be worn again. And then there are others that will serve her well, enjoying a constant rotation through her wardrobe through the years. And we think this Tom Ford-era handbag is just one of those pieces. Crafted with traditional Ford dark gypsy glamour, this bag feature a front fur flap that suggests a louche luxury and works with any outfit from a long sheer hippie frock to jeans, thigh high boots and a mini moto jacket! Shazaam!
We miss Alexander McQueen and we know you do too. His untimely passing left a hole in our hearts. So, from time to time, we'll be posting pieces from the seminal designer. Just 'cause. We know that you all have many summer events on the horizon. And while we like to find of gorgeous gowns for our gorgeous gals, I think that this show-stopping silver pleated McQueen skirt is an amazing alternative to a traditional frock. I'd pair it with a simple tee (a la Sharon Stone at the Oscars--wassup Gap?), a pair of ballet flats and chunky costume necklace--think Chanel. Grab a chic lil' clutch and you're out the door!
OMG!!! WE super excited to announce that we've been invited to post weekly on In Style.com and guess what? Today is our first post! Be sure to go to In Style and check it out! We'll be posting our usual fashion flavour: trends, must-have pieces, Q&A with the D2 Gang, and Designer Spotlights featuring the chicest clothes, amazing accessories and sassy shoes! And, for today's inaugural post, we've put up a super chic Versace number that our longtime friend and client Garcelle Beauvais picked up at Decadestwo, rocked on the red carpet and then re-consigned. But that's not all--the 200th reader to sign up on twitter with us will WIN this dress for her (or his) very own!
Turns out, four times a charm! And for our fourth pop-up in NYC, we've decided to celebrate the city with a send-up of our favorite style show set in the Big Apple. You guessed it: Sex and The City! So, dig it. We'll be posting up with four chic collections, each inspired by one of our favorite SATC gals! That's right. Get your mitts on a chic sheath via Charlotte, something sexy via Samantha, stylish suiting a la Miranda, or something wild that would make Carrie proud. Be sure to tune in here for more pop-up details as the date grows closer!.jpg)
