Karl Lagerfeld’s Impulse Collection Hits Macy’s Today

The impressive Karl Lagerfeld for Macy’s Impulse line that I recently previewed will hit stories today. On this day in fashion history, even fashionistas with not so deep pockets such as myself can own something designed by the fashion God. Just found this awesome video of the genius at work. It seems we have a lot in common. Like Mr. Lagerfeld, I don’t like counting, especially when it comes to balancing my finances. This sophisticated limited edition collection is in my opinion, the best of the Impulse lines yet. The next collaboration will be with Giambattista Valli, launching Oct. 26.

Karl Lagerfeld for Macy’s Impulse Exclusive Preview

Macy’s Impulse is coming out with yet another line this time by famous fashion man Karl Lagerfeld who tweeted today that, “Luxury is the ease of a t-shirt in a very expensive dress.”  I for one could not agree more with that statement.   Predominantly filled with different shades of pink and black, Lagerfeld’s Macy’s line adds a socialite flare to an office ready outfit.  These looks combined with comfortable fabrics will have you feeling business casual when you are actually business dressy.  Besides, it never hurts to wear something that says “Karl Lagerfeld” on the tag.

In honor of this new very flirty Fall 2011 Capsule Collection that of course I got to preview before anyone else, I ventured downtown to the Yellow Korner on Wooster St. where the clothes were being shown on live models.   Aspiring Socialites are always looking for new ways to bring the socialite life into their everyday activities.   Karl Lagerfeld’s Impulse collection for Macy’s is line that shares that vision.  These outfits are Happy Hour chic while still being completely Midtown office appropriate, a must if you are going to live the Manhattan double life.  If there weren’t enough people already in Manhattan, many of us also seem to lead multiple lives comprised of commonplace office work by day and A-list parties by night.  I guess that explains why I am always so busy.

This 45-piece collection is set to hit Macy’s stores on August 31st. Lagerfeld described the collection to Vogue as “a coup d’oeil to the dresses I designed for Chloe and the girlish, more romantic mood of the seventies.”

Love this pink and black color combo seem throughout the collection.  This my favorite outfit in the line by far.  It’s very office chic.
