Textbook for Fashionista: Stephanie LaCava!

Having penned pieces for Vogue, The New York Times and The Daily Beast, Stephanie LaCava has built a name for herself in the edit world. Of course, as with most fashion writers, she has her own unique style which pays homage to the decade we all know and love–the nineties. With a flare for the Nirvana age, I’m willing to bet that Ms. LaCava is a little more than excited about what we saw for Fall 2011. Everything old is new again, unless you never let it go.

Textbook for Fashionista: Emmanuelle Alt!

Who doesn’t know Emmanuelle Alt? Even before her somewhat new role as Editor-in-Chief at Vogue Paris, she was making waves in the blogosphere as their Fashion Director. She’s typically spotted in a Kate Lanphear-esque ensemble–jeans or leather pants, a simple shirt and some kind of awesome blazer or coat. Ms. Alt has certainly nailed her street style pose too, but being shot as many times as she is, who wouldn’t develop a trademark stance?

Textbook for Fashionista: Nickelson Wooster of Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman!

Nickelson Wooster, men’s fashion director at Neiman Marcus, can be seen at most menswear shows you’d like to be at. As the voice behind the men of Neimans and Bergdorf Goodman, he’s earned his spot. However, if you aren’t a show-goer or skulking outside Simon Spurr, you may have seen him on every single menswear blog ever. Mr. Wooster has impeccable style and makes bold decisions when it comes to print, pattern and color and it’s these choices that make him all the more interesting. You have to admire a man who knows how to aggressively mix plaid. Good for him.

Textbook for Fashionista: Glenda Bailey!

In honor of NYFW, I thought it’d be nice to take a look at Glenda Bailey. To be perfectly frank, I think she’s pretty badass as far as the editorial world goes. As editor in chief of Harper’s Bazaar, she’s the type of woman who keeps her wits about her and one of those people that’s in it because she loves it. So often in fashion we see people who want their picture taken, want their name on the list or want their gift bag. There are very few veterans still in the business for the right reasons, and Glenda is one of them. So cheers to Ms. Bailey; she’s got it goin’ on.
