Obsessed: Lancome’s Tinted Moisturizer

Last time I remember being called “fresh,” it was in the eighth grade after back-talking my social-studies teacher. But being called fresh now—after weeks of fashion shows and late-night fashion parties—is quite the compliment. I wish I could say my healthy-looking, dewy, fresh-scrubbed skin was due to my relentless regimen of loads of sleep, lots [...]

Lauren Santo Domingo: Born in the Streets Graffiti

 
When I was told I by a friend that I must go check out an exhibit at the Cartier museum, I assumed that I was going to see a retrospective of tank watches and engagement rings—not that that would have been such an awful thing. It turned out he was referring to the Cartier Foundation [...]

Lauren Santo Domingo: Designer Crush

 

Maybe it was the fact that I wore a dress of his last week and people assumed I was already a member of his fan club, or maybe it was the slight trace of my friend Olivier Theyskens for Rochas that was seen in his collection, or perhaps it was just because of my well-known [...]

Seven Days, Seven Looks, One Girl: Lauren Santo Domingo

September 11, 2009
Day Look: Phi pants, Proenza booties, Calvin Klein sweater
All I can say is that it was cold. And raining. My closet is full of spring and summer clothes, and these pants (a recent gift from Phi) were the only thing in my closet suitable for the fall weather. Full disclosure: I would (and [...]

Lauren Santo Domingo is OBSESSED: Shiseido liquid eyeliner

As much as I wanted the perfect cat-eye, I could not get a liquid eyeliner to cooperate. It was completely hopeless. I just could not get it right—and if by the grace of God I was able to line one eye properly, most likely I would completely botch the other. I tried about every product [...]

Lauren Santo Domingo: My Favorite Altuzarra Dress

When did it become a crime of fashion to wear the same thing twice?!
It seems that not a month goes by without some fashion plate being dragged through the tabloid ink for the heinous crime of repeating a look. But I think, in this age of financial and environmental awareness, that wearing clothes again and [...]

All Around the Town: Dinner with Oscar de La Renta at Saks

Labor Day may be the end of summer for the rest of the country, but here in New York the end of summer is marked by the official beginning of Fashion Week. For me, the switch arrived in one instant: When the elevator doors burst open on the third floor of Saks Fifth Avenue last [...]

The LSD: A Bag Down Memory Lane

Is it just me or has shopping become particularly nostalgic? I look around and see the latest trends have taken us from the eighties to the nineties and back again in just about one season flat. So, with the reemergence of trends from my youth (the decades where I first experimented with fashion) I must [...]

Obsessed: Embellished Tights

I have never met an embellishment I didn’t like. Whether we’re talking about a load of crystal bling to dress up a plain white T-shirt—or a harmless off-white lie to snazz up an otherwise dull story—I do love having that sparkle in my eye. Christian Lacroix’s sparkly stockings from a haute couture collection in 2006 [...]

Obsessed: Marie Antoinette’s Fragrance

For someone who loves reading about the fashions and follies of pampered princesses and indulgent mistresses as much as I do, Marie Antoinette is like my Elvis. (Which would make Versailles my Graceland, presumably.) That’s why learning that the ill-fated queen’s favorite fragrance was re-created and packaged with painstaking detail from the original is like [...]

Duly Noted

Filipa Fino, Vogue’s Senior Accessories Editor, opens her Paris notebook.
 
People will go to incredible lengths to get their hands on the It item of the season—even if that season is next fall. In this case our very own Lauren Santo Domingo was obsessed with getting the latest, right-off-the- runway black thigh high boots. (I call them [...]

The Bold Shoulder

Last week, I did something I said I would never do again: I wore a strapless Alexander McQueen cocktail dress to an awards dinner in London. The dress was chocolate–brown silk velvet, to the knee, with a tiny corseted waist and exaggerated pockets on the hips. About as modern an evening dress as you can [...]
