I know I have a few fab Texans hanging around here, and now is one of those beneficial times to be hanging. My dear friend Tina Craig, over at BagSnob is hosting a lovely event THIS Thursday, at the Oscar boutique in the Northpark Center, this Thursday, March 27th, from 1-4 pm. Oscar de la Renta is sending his Fall 2008 bag collection to the boutique for an exclusive preview showing, and Tina is bringing champagne for this “Bags ...

Kudos to Claudia Schiffer for still going strong in her super-modeling career despite competition with her younger counterparts, like Gisele. Well, this frock she's sporting doesn't quite mesh with the beach setting, but ...

Box clutches are an insane passion of mine. From Bottega Veneta to vintage, I find them to be the absolute most chic clutch a woman can carry, especially for evening. This Jeweled Box Clutch from Oscar de la Renta is a box clutch lover’s dream. Embellished with jewels on both sides, the purse has loads of depth thanks to the tonal details. Not just another little black handbag, this clutch has leather trim on the ...

Since she's hip, has great taste, and loves to dress up, she won't be satisfied with any old present. See what's in store this holiday season for your Auntie Fab. She'll thank you!
Oh, and don't forget to peruse all of our Gift Guides and download our Fab Gift Guide worksheet to help keep you ...
Katherine Heigl went the menswear route while out to lunch with her mom in LA. Thankfully, she maintained a bit of femininity via her Oscar de la Renta ruffled cashmere cardigan, Chanel bag, and patent pumps. In this ensemble, she could easily walk from lunch into a meeting and still look appropriate. Don't you wish all outfits had such versatility?

Pick up the November issue of Harper's Bazaar and you'll soon realize that one of the greatest fashion magazines, started in 1867, is celebrating it's big 1-4-0! In a world so fickle, lasting that long in any industry is not easy. So let's put our hands together, clear our throats, and sing one of our favorite mags a happy birthday.
In celebration, this month's issue features quotes from the most influential designers today. They were asked former Bazaar columnist Diana ...
This collection was a bit of traditional Oscar de la Renta - with poofy, dramatic dresses and full-of-sheen separates - fused with a more modern, androgynous Oscar. There's no doubt that the designer stuck with the overarching Spring theme of femininity, but he stayed away from flowy and went the structure route.
There were dramatic necklines, long red carpet gowns, bows, ruffles, floral patterns, pleats, metallics, pantsuits, shift dresses, skirt suits with cropped jackets, tuxedo-style frocks, bubble silhouettes and lantern ...
We should all take it as a blessing when a classic style makes it's way back into the fashion game. To my relief: Fall is all about dressing like a woman - no more frilly ruffles and layers inspired by little girls. As this week's Life & Style points out, it is time to reevaluate your shoe collection and ask yourself: do I have a pair of graceful, elegant, sexy peep toes? If the answer is no, or ...
Womenswear Designer of The Year, Oscar de la Renta has surely kept his favorite customers - the ladies who lunch and Anna Wintour - happy with this collection. There are plenty of fitted suits, floppy hats, party dress, and polka dots to go around.
I think my favorite look has to be this coral taffeta ruffled number, left, which is surprisingly similar to a J. Crew dress that I've had my ...
Ellen Barkin hosted last night's Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) Fashion Awards in NYC. The event, which Council President Diane von Furstenberg made sure started on time, was attended by celebrities such as Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, Kate Bosworth, Heidi Klum, and Debra Messing, among others, as well as by top designers and fashion insiders.
Oscar de la Renta and Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez for Proenza Schouler tied for Womenswear Designer ...
$895 for this?!? You must be joking. If ever there was a case of the “emperor has no clothes,” it’d be this flimsy Oscar de la Renta Transparent Travel Tote. There’s nothing to it - and certainly nothing to warrant even a fraction of that price. The bag is made of clear PVC with white or black leather trim and gold hardware. You’re really just paying for the de la Renta name, but for $895 one would expect to at ...
This ornate Oscar de la Renta Satin Clutch may be conventionally beautiful, but there’s something a little uninspired and, frankly, out of touch about it. An older woman could easily get away with the dressy-dressy clutch (available in black or nude), but younger fashionistas can do better than the elaborate, questionable clear crystal brooch the bag sports. It’s certainly not hip or cutting-edge, that’s for sure. This semi-garish embellishment would have been better left to the Bob Mackie “Dynasty” gowns ...
Usually when I hear the word “embroidered,” my mind summons up images of quaint “Home Sweet Home” pillows stitched up by Grandma herself. Thankfully this Oscar de la Renta Embroidered Leather Tote is a lot more stylish and cutting-edge than that. Available in cream or red, the geometric-shaped leather bag boasts intricate distressed floral embroidery that is striking and a bit exotic. It’s definitely not old-fashioned or cutesy, which so often happens with this technique. And who can resist the ...
