If you’ve been following this blog you probably know by now that I love a good collaboration, especially when it comes to fashion and art. Tip of the hat to Terry McKee who coordinated a five-pronged collab for a Nuovo Salon Group + Saks Fifth Avenue combined anniversary celebration, benefitting the Sarasota Museum of Art, which featured an exhibit of work by the Ringling College of Arts and Design’s Fashion Photography students. // CLICK HERE for MORE @SARASOTAMAGAZINE.COM

Whether you love it or hate it, Madonna’s infamous and iconic conical bra, created by Jean Paul Gaultier for her 1990s Blond Ambition tour, has an interesting back story.

Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty

Here it is—the launch of my style blog for Sarasota Magazine: Who.What.Wear. As the name suggests, I’ll be posting general musings on the stylishly savvy, what’s hip and current locally as well as noteworthy Internet finds and fashionable discoveries.

I’m a style spectator, so I’ll share what to know and where to find it. In fact, consider me your personal shopper, of sorts. I’ll update you on what’s trending while keeping you ahead of the curve, even de-mystifying some of the pesky fashion-insider information.

So, with that, let’s get right to it and kick off this blog with the designer everyone seems to be talking about.

More than likely you’ve heard all the hype about the Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty exhibition at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC. I went. And allow me to tell you the truth of the matter—it was AH.MAZ.ING. // Click Here for MORE @ SarasotaMagazine.com
