Street Style: Hamptons Edition

by

This past weekend, we decided to escape the city and venture out to the Hamptons to celebrate the 4th with Kanon Organic Vodka and NYC hangout The Smile. We figured the combination of unbearable heat, a swimming pool, a color-themed holiday and fashion people would bring about some noteworthy style and we were right. After a couple of Kanon’s “Red, White and Blueberry,” cocktails (yes, they actually were really good) we decided to start documenting.

The event had a decidedly laid-back vibe; many partygoers like Harley Viera-Newton left the red and blue at home and opted for chic white ensembles. Maybe they were going to some kind of P. Diddy White Party after? Does that still happen? Click through for this party’s best dressed.

Byrdie Bell, Genevieve Jones, and Becka Diamond in Moncler for Vanity Fair?

Byrdie Bell, Genevieve Jones, and Becka Diamond in Moncler for Vanity Fair?

by

In the past couple of hours, Byrdie Bell has tweeted three times about her and Becka Diamond being shot in Moncler for Vanity Fair.

This photo of Becka in a puffer seems to prove it’s true. And Genevieve Jones is around, too. But we wonder, what are Byrdie Bell and Becka Diamond–who, unlike Jones, aren’t regulars–doing in Vanity Fair?

We’d expect to see the edgy duo in a mag like Jalouse, which featured Becka on its cover earlier this year, not VF which is essentially an upscale celebrity rag that usually features the likes of Meryl Streep, Gwyneth Paltrow, and the occasional Miley Cyrus. It’s read by plenty of people outside of the fashion industry. And that’s why we wonder about their choice of Byrdie Bell and Becka Diamond, who are essentially fashion scene socialites.

Fashion Week

Narciso Rodriguez Goes Boom, and Other Party Gossip

by

Yes, Fashion Week’s mostly work, but for a few hours each night we get to party, too. We’re not sure what’ll rival September’s Alexander Wang-surprise-Courtney-Love-in-a-gas-station concert, but random news is trickling in. We hear Narciso Rodriguez is throwing a bash at the Standard’s Boom Boom Room, which’ll maintain its Fashion Week status. Meanwhile, Timo Weiland’s Read more →

Becka Diamond’s First Cover

by

photo courtesy altamiraBecka Diamond, previously known as Dree Hemingway’s best friend and almost It-Girl, has landed her most official fashion role to date (not that NylonTV isn’t official, it’s just not 100% fashion). She’s heading to California this weekend to shoot both the cover and an accompanying editorial for “a new European fashion mag.” Meanwhile, Read more →
