Project Design: Seaside Inspired

By -
On last night's new episode of Project Accessory the designers were challenged with accessorizing swimwear--a tough challenge considering sunglasses, straw hats and flip flops tend to be the most accessories beach goers wear. For inspiration and materials the designers took to the seaside. The judges saw a lot of seashells and drift wood, but the winning design went for a less literal interpretation.

Which of these seaside inspired treasures made by accessory designers on Etsy would you wear?

Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.

Jean Paul Gaultier's runway promoted one of my favorite fashion looks: pinstripes with a delicate, feminine print. He had high-waisted pants, suspenders, lingerie elements, lace, sheer fabrics, softly geometric designs, and monochrome dominated, much to my glee. His menswear-inspired looks are a testament to how graceful the style can be. Christian Lacroix also paid homage to menswear with pieces inspired by matadors and soldiers. The complete collection wasn't cohesive, but even the breaks from theme were lovely. It's hard to argue with so many colors, ruffles and embroidery. Plus, I want that polka dot coat!
