Flared Leg Trend - Rebecca Minkoff

A Flair for Flare at Rebecca Minkoff

The designer brings back the wide leg

Will skinny jeans finally go the way of mom jeans? Who knows, but Rebecca Minkoff’s spring 2013 collection showcased a flared leg enough to make us hope so. In this video, the designer gives tips for wearing the trend and shares how New York City influences her designs.

An Interview with Our Street Style Idol

Lina Plioplyte shows us her three favorite outfits

Most people reserve head-to-toe leopard print (socks included) for Halloween.

Lina Plioplyte is an exception.

When the Lithuania-born filmmaker dresses in full-body spots, she gets photographed by The Sartorialist.

In today’s video, we head to the street style superstar’s Brooklyn neighborhood to get the lowdown on her three favorite outfits — and attempt to uncover how she makes her Clarissa Explains It All-meets-Iris Apfel look work.

We’ve watched Plioplyte turn heads while behind the camera at multiple DailyCandy videos in the past, so when a group of high school boys asked for her digits during this shoot, we were hardly fazed.

She’s the cat’s meow.

Inside Story: Lele Sadoughi

The jewelry designer shows us her place

Fact: Some people have more hours in their days than the rest of us.

Designer Lele Sadoughi sits among these unicorns: She started J.Crew’s jewelry division, heads it up at Tory Burch, and launched her own collection for Spring 2013. And she had a baby a month ago.

In today’s Inside Story, we took of a tour of Sadoughi’s Greenwich Village pad, from the thousands of pieces of costume jewelry to table settings fit for a queen. The coolest part? Almost everything is from flea markets and eBay (she even divulged her search terms).

While we were there, Sadoughi gave us a peek at her fall collection, and it’s just as vibrant and colorful as the rooms she inhabits.

If, that is, she’s a real person.

To shop Sadoughi’s collection, go to lelesadoughi.com. To watch more home porn, check out Heidi Merrick’s hideaway in the hills, Rebecca Minkoff’s colorful loft, and Lela Rose’s Manhattan mansion.

Denim isn't just blue anymore

When it comes to jeans, it’s not just about the blues anymore. During Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, we saw denim in vibrant colors — orange, red, yellow, you name it — both inside and outside Lincoln Center. In today’s StyleCandy Runway Takeaway, we explore the trend’s staying power.

Chris Benz Brought Us Flowers

Florals are the new neutral at the designer's presentation

“Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week is so calm and relaxing.”
— No one, ever

But despite the lack of sleep, we get a rush when the models start down the runway.

That’s why we teamed up with the Style Network to bring you StyleCandy’s Runway Takeaway videos. Each day, we showcase outstanding styles that we think will evolve into full-blown trends, from one of our favorite designers.

We spotted symmetrical prints at Lela Rose, menswear inspiration at Kaelen, and ’70s florals at Chris Benz (above, and yes, that is Susan Sarandon and her dogs). Plus, each designer gave us styling tips, from shoes you shouldn’t wear with flared pants (Rebecca Minkoff) to advice for wearing statement pieces (Erin Fetherston).

We hope you’ll be inspired to channel these looks now. Spring 2013 feels too long to wait.

You can quote us on that.

DIY Micro Floral Print with Mr. Kate

The L.A.-based crafter shows us her easy method

You’ve put one too many birds on it (thanks, Portlandia). What’s next?

Flowers, as inspired by the micro florals on the fall 2012 runways at Suno, Paul & Joe, and Band of Outsiders, to name a few. In today’s Easy Does It video, we asked L.A.-based DIY expert Kate Albrecht (a.k.a. the beautiful Mr. Kate) to show us how.

All you’ll need is fabric paint (in four or five fall-ish colors), a fabric pen, tinfoil, and a surface in need of sprucing up. We did shirts in the video, but feel free to use totes, pillowcases, etc.

We’d never want you to feel pigeonholed.

Feminine skirts light up the runway

Generally speaking, miniskirts look good only on people with minihips. That’s why we were thrilled to see full skirts going up and down the runway at Honor. In this video, we interview designer Giovanna Randall about her feminine, flouncy looks.

StyleCandy's first favorite look

When two greats join forces, we can’t get enough. Brunch, Brangelina, and chugs (Chihuahua-pug hybrids, obviously) are living proof.

Which is why we’ve teamed up with the Style Network to form our own aptly named entity: StyleCandy. Each month, we’re combining DailyCandy’s knack for finding the latest and greatest with Style’s passion for all things stylish to bring you original video content.

We can’t wait to get this relationship off the ground and into your computers.
