A Better Sweater

by Matthew T. Murray in DAYTIME DRESSING, CASUAL


TUESDAY, JANUARY 5th

Delpozo sweater. Frame Denim jeans. Loewe bag. Delpozo shoes.

If the Wooly Mammoth had an extramarital affair with Drag Queen goddess Lakisha Sparkles, this Delpozo sweater would be their illegitimate love child.

Pastel pink, cobalt blue, rose, and winter white fringe cascade on an alpaca pullover, making the jaw-dropping price tag understandable. Delpozo designer Joseph Font is one of the few pioneering designers reinvigorating demi-couture practices bringing innovative, hand-constructed garments into the ready-to-wear category.

Font spins fashion into a Willy Wonka-fied fantasy and fashion's flock are dreaming of Delpozo. This crazy ass sweater and the other offerings from his recent pre-fall 2016 collection are on sale for pre-order at Moda Operandi if you feel like loosening the purse strings.

And while an easy breezy J. Crew v-neck sweater may be your no-brainer for effortless winter dressing, why not take a walk on the wild side and dare to wear this sweater?

Wearing a sweater this bipolar is no easy feat. Scale it back by wearing denim - a flare-legged jean gives the look a free-spirited '70s vibe. Add a top-handle bag that perfectly complements one of the shades of the sweater. Last but not least, pair it with a bow-adorned glossy shoe that makes it feel like Christmas all over again!

Most importantly, wear a smile! To quote the Dalai Lama, fun outfits fail when you're a grouchy biatch. Ok. He didn't say that but I'm sure he'd agree with me.

NEW YEAR'S EVE, BABY!

by Matthew T. Murray in CASUAL, NIGHT OUT, WORK


THURSDAY, DECEMBER 31st

Gucci top. Gucci pants. Gucci shoes. Gucci bag. Moet & Chandon champagne.

Step one in putting together the perfect outfit: put together the perfect playlist. I get dressed for nights out blasting feel-good anthems like "I Gotta Feeling!" by the Black Eyed Peas (above) and anything Britney Spears because well, it's Britney, bitch!

So put on some jams and get to dressing because tonight is your night to shine! I'm obsessed with my styled Gucci look, all available at Net-A-Porter. The top is everything a fashion girl could dream of - Rainbow technicolor stripes, cascading ruffles, metallic sparkle!

It's a top that's just asking to be taken out dancing on New Year's Eve! I also found a rave girl-style from Dolls Kill that only costs 12 dollars and has just as much fun as the Gucci does (yes, I'm personifying clothing)!   

Anyways, treat yourself and buy this Gucci look (and consequently start off 2016 being broke af) or find a pretty camisole in your closet and pair it with a flare-leg jean in an off-white shade (the pair pictured is Gucci but G-star has a perfect style for 1/4 the price!) Throw in a patent pink bag for a pop of color and throw on glossy metallic mules and you're ready to celebrate NYE in style!

If you're in New York, I'd suggest wearing this coat with it but if you're lucky enough to be chillaxing at some far-flung beach resort, this look works as is. Maybe just lose the shoes so you can dance the night away on the beach you lucky dog, you!

So now that you have the solution for an NYE look that's simple and fun, it's time to drink buttloads of champagne and gain 6,000 blisters from all that dancing! Go out and have fun!

See you in 2016!
