Hermès Spring-Summer 2015

After three years as the Hermès designer, Christophe Lemaire presented his last show this week during Paris Fashion Week to focus on his own signature label. Each look of the spring-summer 2015 collection offered a level of elegant nonchalance. The pieces were unfussy yet offered the ultimate dose of effortless chic. We certainly couldn’t pick a favorite piece if we tried.

Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas for HIM

blue

 

Are you looking for Valentine’s Day gift ideas for HIM? Find the gift he’s sure to love.  Shop some of our favorites at Highland Park Village.  We love the different shades of blue we are seeing this season. From bright cobalt to deep navy, the hues pair well with rich chocolate and whiskey leathers. The Slip Notched Lapel Blazer is on our wish list from rag & bone - the pattern is perfection. For one with a bit of adoration for all things nautical, shop Anchor Cuff Links from Ralph Lauren. As for a tie, you can never go wrong with Hermès.  We love the Piece Met. Valentine’s Day is a perfect time to shop for a new fragrance.  Hermès Vetiver Tonka is always a classic choice.  For a luxe addition to his office attire, don’t miss shopping the Cordovan Portfolio from Billy Reid. And, take the time to peruse new spring-ready arrivals at Cole Haan.  He will love the Christy Wedge Saddle Oxfords.
