Liv Tyler was chic in DKNY on her way to The View in New York City.  She wore a wrap dress with a self-belted waist, V-neckline and mid-thigh hemline.  It was in a print with playful lips throughout.  Her red peep-toe pumps, black handbag and sunglasses gave the whole look that sexy urban vibe.

DKNY has a new campaign for its ‘Be Delicious’ fragrance, it stars models Chanel Iman and Fei Fei Sun. These ads have a natural and wholesome element that’s evident in the makeup and wardrobe. The apple shaped bottle is consistent with those found in nature, and a couple of spritzes a day might be just as beneficial. Photographer Regan Cameron brought the vision to life.

Color was on the DKNY Girl’s mind for Fall 2011.  Vivid colors in orange, mustard and hot pink will have you looking forward to the cold weather.  If color were not enough, may they interest you in a cape for the season.  Textures and stripes also took their turn down this runway.  The hemline was above the knee and the sheer tops remained under jackets.  Shoes and socks will make its return for Fall, and when done right, it’s very stylish.  A neutral face and centered-part hair finished the looks here at DKNY.

The presence of the fashionably minded is requested by DKNY PR Girl on Monday, January 24th for a special viewing of DKNY’s Spring 2011 collection.  It all takes place at 10pm EST on BIGLIVE.com where you can have a live chat with your host and each other.  Get an insider viewpoint of the show from DKNY PR Girl as it streams in your living room.  Viewers will be privy to a VIP code giving you an exclusive discount off your first spring purchase.  Watch, chat, shop and save; you might want to schedule this in.

DKNY and Thomas Pink have collaborated on a limited-edition capsule collection of shirts.  They have combined the fine tailoring of Thomas Pink with the classic chic of DKNY to bring you tuxedo shirts for every occasion.  The shirts come in three styles - there’s the pin-tucked tuxedo shirt, classic button down and stretch cotton with a loose fit.  A great button down shirt is timeless and elegant when paired with a  glamorous skirt.  It is the ultimate power statement, there can be strength where there is beauty.  The fusion of the masculine with the feminine is the preferred style of dress for the modern woman, and this collection embodies that.  You can get yours at all DKNY stores and at DKNY.COM .  Enjoy!

DKNY & the National MS Society hosted a special event last night at the Madison Avenue store.  Author Marlo Donato Parmelee was celebrating her memoir, Awkward  Bitch, My Life with MS.  At the age of 32, she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS).  Parmelee read an excerpt from her book, and it was both poignant and humorous.  She sparkled in a blue sequined DKNY top that radiated against her outlook and humor.  A book signing ensued.  Customers were treated to champagne, delicious cupcakes and a 10% discount off their  purchases.  In addition, DKNY donated 10% of the evening’s proceeds to the New York City – Southern NY chapter of the National MS Society.  Nothing goes better with cupcakes, than shopping for a good cause.

DKNY’s Spring 2011 runway show opened with a chic and modern look, and never looked back.

This look is feminine and demurely sexy, one of my favorites.  The layering/ruffle detail is incomparable.

The DKNY girl is the super chic lady in red, armed with a scarf and sexy red shoes.

Color was front and center on this runway, along with ruffles to accentuate youth and femininity.

This is the picture of elegance and chic…

DKNY brings vibrant turquoise and red for Spring 2011.

The prints are the exclamation point to a well-done collection!

DKNY launched it’s Fall 2010 ad campaign today, and it will leave you yearning for colder weather.  Fall is the time to do simple chic, and the ad achieved that in spades.  The classic neutral color palette of gray, brown, camel and black was combined with on-trend pieces.  In addition to neutrals, the ad was infused with colorful winter vests styled differently to showcase their versatility.  The stylist also placed the versatility of the collection on display; the campaign reflected the sporty, parochial and the refined DKNY girl.  They say diamonds are a girl’s best friend, and I say variety and options are a close second.
