Top Ten Summer Hats for Women
[slideshow_deploy id=’46883′]
It has been said that this summer will be one of the hottest summers. So don’t waste your energy waving a handmade fan to cool down; just grab a hat to keep your face hidden from the sun and keep yourself fresh. Our list has many hats to choose from so you can shift from style to style as the day goes on. In the morning, for the bright and early sun, grab the Noel Stewart Panama Wide-Brim Fedora hat that has an approximately 5 inch brim and a black ribbon sweatband. Grab this hat in straw, cotton, or nylon and in the colors of natural or cream. For a day walk in the park, try on a Helen Kaminski Callala floral hat, designed with a cotton trim and lining, so the flowers can enjoy the sunlight as well. If the Hudson River is more of your scenery then throw on a Eugenia Kim Open-Basket weave Wide-Brim Sunhat that will allow the moonlight shine through so you will have no problem enjoying the lovely view. Don’t let the heat fire down the summer for you. Take on the city as much as you can because summer drizzles down the drain quick… and don’t forget to take a hat!

The life of Yves Saint Laurent was forever changed in January of 1958, when the then 21-year-old was asked to oversee the established fashion house of the legendary Christian Dior. It was the opportunity of a lifetime for the young designer—but also a major responsibility that came with very big shoes to fill. Saint Laurent more than surpassed expectations and, in the process, became a legend in his own right.
This year, a film detailing the designer’s rise to success premiered at the 64th Berlin International Film Festival. The film, directed by Jalil Lespert and bearing the name of the designer, gives fans an inside look into the personal life of the fashion mogul—specifically highlighting Laurent’s relationship with his partner, Pierre Bergé, with whom he founded the Yves Saint Laurent Company. Lespert expertly captures the spirit of the Saint Laurent brand, documenting the designer’s ascent to an iconic fashion symbol, all while emphasizing the importance of Bergé’s influence on the brand and Laurent himself. The film’s US release date is set for June 25th.

There is always an obsession with shoes, and this Spring designers are focused on transforming the notion of sporty shoes and elevating them into a more sophisticated category.
This trend was seen at the Chanel Haute-Couture show which showed the elegance of decadent light luxury paired with running shoes. This was a look that generated both controvery and great interest.
Another hot shoe trend is kitten heels, which we saw all over the shows from Saint Laurent to the exquisite boots of Rodarte.
Textures and colors were also a highlight of the season, with a mix of leathers and cuts like those shown by Valentino and Proenza Schouler.
But the big winner this season seems to be the flat ballerina shoes of Rochas, featuring yellow ostrich feathers and other festive embellishments making them, without a doubt, the shoes of the season.
Here are our top ten shoes for Spring 2014.
