NEW WORK: Kevin Kramp / Colorblocking / Eveningwear

I've been slack on posting my latest stories as they come out. Here's a feature I wrote on knitwear designer Kevin Kramp for the December issue of METRO magazine, where I'm a senior fashion editor. (check out photos of his studio and video of the designer at work here)

If this text is too hard to read, you can also see the story on METRO's website.

Next up is a trend report I wrote on colorblocking for the November issue.

I want those Chanel flats so bad it's not even funny. This story isn't online, so hopefully you can read make out the text above.

Next up is a peice I wrote about how to dress for formal occasions. METRO is a city magazine, not a fashion magazine, so not everyone who reads it is fashion saavy. I figured it'd be helpful to break down the logistics behind when it's okay to wear pants, what cocktail attire means, etc. because many people will be hitting up fancy holiday parties this month.

I styled this look using a Monique Lhuillier gown from her 2012 resort collection. You can find the online version of this story here.
