As I buy multi-packs of paper towels and gatorade (Thank you, Harvey Keitel) as I await the launch of the Libertine collaboration at Target, I swooped up some of what was obviously another designer that I SHOULD know (didn’t know, but hey, it was a sale)—
Patrick Robinson.
His bio reads interesting for an American designer based in Paris. (He must know Rick Owens –you know, the assumption that all these US guys bunk together and speak poor French.)
Okay, Mr. Robinson’s primary claim to fame (besides crafting a witty label for his brand(u) was turning Collezioni Armani into a more wearable product. Hey, don’t laugh, it’s a task on par with updating Escada (and no one with take that number on….Margeretha Ley, may she rest in peace.)
I like the blue bubble skirt. (Hey, the paper towel pak and gator juice cost me more at checkout combined.)

Gucci’s coveted ‘Indy’ Bag in black python with requisite trim and tassel closure (price — don’t ask, but better than the fur variety AND infinitely more wearable); Jimmy Choo burgundy patent/wine suede Doctor’s bag (the large one, bring extra gauze Make HOUSE CALLS); Philadelphia’s EVIAMA Life Spa — ‘green’ eco-friendly ask for Carla and go for that pro Rainforest Bikini Wax — 215.545.3344; Diane Kenal (Think Balenciaga shows, Penelope Cruz) fave Kryolan Supracolor Cream Make Up Palette (try Three Custom Color Specialists if you can’t find the former) for nude on nude coverage. Contour baby.
Denim (stock up for fall)–while we love our season’s past Saddlelite jeans (which hide the saddlebags…) We also groove to Libertine’s jeans for Target $34.99 (Look 22), ODYN ($204 Barneys — 212.826.8900-size UP) and MY YYC fave Chloe!!!!!! (see pic above)
And, for the Studly one in your life: Gucci (pour homme 2) nice to smell on the pillow beside you.
Lest we forget, STATEMENT RINGS– you know, not marriage, not goin’ steady, just bein’ YOU (excuse to buy bling) are back (when did they leave?). Think Rosalina, but buy Stephen Webster. His pigmented crystal gems rock.
Farewell to Tony B.
