Designers I love – Stella McCartney

A designer who creates her pieces around her moral compass is someone worth investing in. Although her morals don’t fall right in line with mine (I wear leather and am 99% fur free and she uses neither). This doesn’t mean I don’t respect designers who incorporate fur and leather in their collections, it’s just interesting to see someone not “sell out” in terms of what they believe. Besides that, she is a Mama of four and designs a fantastic children’s line. She isn’t too cool for school and I love her for it!
Stella’s Colloections are often laced with feminine menswear, beautiful soft lines, fringe, wool, silk and occasional quirky details. Because Stella Mccartney’s pieces aren’t leather, I tend to stay away from her shoes (I normally don’t bend for faux leather). Having said that, I love her Falabella hand bags. Whatever fabric she is using on them, they hold up really well and look beautiful. I especially look forward to January and June (the two Js) because her collection pieces go on sale. The pieces are discounted anywhere from 30-60%. For a high end designer Stella Mccartney’s prices are somewhat reasonable (comparatively speaking) and then when you add the discount, magic happens! I just love a bargain!
I shot this these Timotea trousers and top with Leonard Katsel during NYFW. I believe I ran from one runway show to shoot a few pieces and then ran right back to another show right after. I look very calm here, but that day was a whirlwind….I am still tired from that week! I will be sharing a lot more looks from NYFW over the next couple of weeks.
Thanks for visiting and have a lovely week. XO
