Sizzling Summer Looks & Accessories!

Summer 2012 is almost here and I couldn’t be more excited!  As much as I love the warm weather, I love living in a land of four seasons because the change in weather always marks a new beginning.  Plus, it’s always a blast to buy new pieces for your wardrobe and rediscover old seasonal styles that have been in hiding in the back of your closet for the past six months.

Here are some of my favorite summer picks for the 2012 season:

Favorite Swimsuits:

1.  Kenneth Cole Reaction Adjustable Printed Brief Shorts Swimsuit: A far cry from the string bikini, this year’s swimsuits are reminiscent of the 60s and far more conservative.  In a year where major stars have been seen wearing long sleeves on the red carpet, women are finding that they ironically feel sexier when they are a little more covered up.

2.  Kenneth Cole Reaction Ruffled Skirted Swimsuit:  I’ve always wanted a skirted swimsuit, but have yet to own one.  I’m pretty obsessed with this one.  Not only are the color and the ruffles adorable, it acts as both a swimsuit and beach coverup in one.

3.  Kenneth Cole New York Swimsuit, Animal Printed Foldover:  Can you tell I’m a bit partial to Kenneth Cole swimwear this season?

 

Favorite Sandals:

Meeting Kenneth Cole & Project Accessory Winner Brian Burkhardt at the Unicorn Collection Preview

Being a fashion blogger has opened many doors for me most with a red carpet on the other end. Tonight, I had the once in a lifetime opportunity to interview iconic American fashion designer, Kenneth Cole, and Project Accessory winner, Brian Burkhardt, at the Brian Burkhardt for Kenneth Cole Unicorn Collection preview.  The Unicorn Collection coming out April 15, 2012, was inspired by the stylish city woman traveling to her rustic, yet stylish country home for a leisure weekend with friends and family.  Basically me in the very near future.  Burkhardt describes it as “Adirondack chic with a touch of fantasy with the unicorn.”  Very Aspiring Socialite if you ask me.

The Unicorn Collection – Love the necklace!

Brian, Kenneth, and the Unicorn Collection

Both amazingly talented designers could not have been nicer and more gracious with my questions.  Many thanks to everyone who made these exclusive interviews possible:
