    By Holly Boyle on 2017/05/19

  • Athleisure Accent: Hooded Pieces

    By Joyce Huang on 2017/05/10
    Slipping on a hood just feels so cozy and nice. We’re ecstatic that they can be seen allover this season on tops, dresses, and of course, hoodies. Snatch up a style with a looser hood, so that it drapes beautifully around your face. Anything too tight will have you looking comical and isn’t great for keeping your ‘do intact. Boutique […]

  • The Finer Things: Delicate Necklaces You Need Now

    By Nia Schindle on 2017/03/20
    Taking a sartorial time out from oversized baubles and in-your-face adornments, this season’s must-have necklaces are decidedly pared back. Ultrafine chains look barely there strung along the décolletage, while singular accouterments—think a sculptural pendant or a scintillating diamond cluster—remain the only embellishment. From elongated lariats to sleek-and-chic chokers, spring’s minimalist mood reigns supreme in the style set’s jewelry box. We […]

  • Editor Obsession: Disco Platforms

    By Joyce Huang on 2017/03/10
    It’s hard to even explain how into disco platforms we are right now. These towering styles have brilliant prints, lush colors, and so much height that we are feeling like Hadid sisters strutting down a catwalk. It’s pretty obvious that the LustreLife team has always been crushing hard on 70’s fashion, which is why it is so exciting that designers […]

    By Holly Boyle on 2017/03/08
    If 2016 was the year of shoulder-focused tops, then 2017 is year of the sleeve.   From flared to ruffled to deconstructed to extra-long, sleeves made their way to the front row. Expect to see ties and trimmings that not only emphasize volume and shape, but that elevate the overall top to make it an eye-catching look. Superized bell cuffs, larger […]

  • Down with Denim: New Season, New Staples

    By Holly Boyle on 2017/02/27
    Oh denim. It’s become commonplace for us to wax poetic on how deep our love runs for our number one go-to fabric. Denim stretches into every inch of our life – it takes us from desk to dinner, continually performs as our ubiquitously adored off-duty staple, serves as our statement piece (hello new season’s novelty looks!), it even supports our […]

  • Sheer Genius: How to Style Tricky Transparencies

    By Nia Schindle on 2017/02/20
    Cut from wisps of chiffon and see-through organza, this season’s seductive reveal-and-conceal designs were made from a plethora of sheer fabrics. When it comes to tackling transparencies, styling is key—opt for one sheer design in your ensemble, mixing it with opaque anchor pieces so you don’t feel too exposed. Try slipping a gauzy blazer or a diaphanous sheer blouse on […]

Enter corsets – the oh-so-hot-right-now trend that upgrades closet staples, flips button downs into lewks and elevates just about any basic top, sweater or dress. A corset is […]
