Claire Leana Millar best of NYFW street Style SS18

I came across this top completely on a whim a few hours before a day of shows. It literally blew my mind that it was from H&M! I don't usually find such expensive looking pieces there, but once in a while you can truly score! Plus It's super affordable at just $39! When wearing an evening top for day, I think it's important to dress down on the bottom, with some vintage denim, to maintain the - I woke up like this cool girl swag. I paired it with  vintage Levis & some of my favorite accessories, like my beloved Chanel slingbacks that literally go with everything. People have been asking me lately if I had to choose a shoe to invest in, what would it be? 100% the Chanel slingback. I wear them with everything! (also bought the shirt in pink, that look going up next week!) 

Peace&Love, Claire

Derek Lam 10 Crosby Fragrance Launch & Film Screening

|...The Angelica Theater| 

I spent tonight at the Angelica Theater on West Broadway & Mercer, for the launch of Derek Lam’s 10 piece fragrance collection. The 10 fragrances were accompanied by 10 short films that guests watched with wine, Derek Lam popcorn, and a variety of other common movie theater treats that got a makeover for the event. The 10th sent BlackOut, proved to be my favorite, as I usually go a musky less fruity route, when it comes to my personal sent choices. I’m not sure if Derek will make the 10 short films public, but if so, they are worth watching as an example of the right way to do product based films, (the wrong way being whatever fragrance Johnny Depp represented in whatever that short film was a few months back.) Overall this was a perfect way to kick off Fashion Week here in NYC, starting officially the 11th! 

Peace, Love, & Popcorn, Claire

|@ NYFW SS16 Day 5: Diesel Black Gold +  Alice&Olivia|

This NYFW SS16 has been go, go, go, that’s why I’m so happy to have partnered up with Converse this season, to help my tired feet out while running from show to show! I love sneakers so much, and I always love to look at the woman during the shows that are running place to place all decked out, but sporting kicks instead of heels. Were in NYC for christ sake, it’s hard enough in sneakers to get around! No fuss footwear leaves room to get even more decked out with the rest of the outfit, while still maintaining your downtown cool vibes. The first few days of FW started out raining, so it was awesome to be able to sport a Converse rubber red rain boot, while dodging millions of puddles on my way to the shows! (that post to come!)I I love Spring /Summer collections for the colors! Color is always something that gets me excited, it’s much harder to pair different colors and textures together, and takes a keen eye and true understanding of the pallet to do it right. I’ve been taking so many mental notes of pairings I can’t wait to try this spring! XXXC
