Wear: Black & White

WSJ. Magazine. October 2014

Traveling in September caused a major back-up in my fall magazine reading - the biggest fashion issues of the year are piled up waiting for a rainy afternoon. 

I don't really need to add another one...but the Wall Street Journal has made a splash with WSJ. Magazine, edited by the talented magazine veteran Kristina O'Neill. Each style-focused issue is better than the last, with great articles and fun editorial looks that are inspiring and seductive.

The current issue features Latin and South America. Color Block, the main fashion feature, shows American model Emily DiDonato vamping in Mexico City. Her dramatic eye makeup is striking against the elegant simplicity of the clothes. The photography by Angelo Pennetta and lighting are very cool, as is the styling by George Cortina. I am inspired to grab my black eyeliner and keep my wardrobe monochromatic, at least for a while.
