Ah, the life of a fashion editor. Lunches with Zac, front row seats at Karl’s.

The downside? Always, always having to look ever so perfect.

Lucy Sykes long ago nailed the first two — and now she’s passing along her natural mastery of the third to you. Her collection, Lucy Sykes New York, just landed in Boston at Stil Boutique.

The former fashion editor (of Marie Claire, Town & Country, and Bazaar) lives in NYC, weekends in the Hamptons, and travels regularly to L.A., London, Paris, Milan, and her hometown of Kent, England. Said jet-setting inspired her designs.

Channel your inner Bridget Bardot-frolicking-in-St. Tropez in subtly mod, boxy jackets and bejeweled cardigans. Show off your hourglass anywhere with wasp-waist dresses trimmed in precious English floral fabrics.

They’re the kind of pieces that make you look so perfect, so easily.

Almost like it was your job.
