You Gotta Inspire Somewhere

Long known for opening New York Fashion Week since 2014, this season, the sister and brother duo behind Nicholas K announcd Wednesday that they have decided to take a new approach.

For the Spring/Summer ’18 collection they will launch with a more visceral presentation pictured in the very place which served as the designers’ inspiration for the season.

On Thursday, September 7th at 9:00 AM, in collaboration with IMG & the official NYFW, Nicholas and Christopher Kunz will debut their SS18 collection via the label’s Instagram account, @NicholasKstudio.

Each look will be released one-by-one during their usual time-slot, however this season the press can take a leisurely coffee and eschew the drama of finding their seats.

“As an alternative to a traditional Fashion Week runway debut, we wanted to collaborate off-site with someone we felt shared our vision for design, sustainability and conservation, while also having a memorable experience” explains Nicholas.

Inspired by the futuristic natural architecture of Azulik, a sustainable Luxury Eco retreat located in Tulum, Mexico; the new collection reflects the natural beach and jungle environment that has made the area so popular for dreamy Instagram shots.

The brand will be shooting its campaign and lookbook at Azulik in late August, amidst a traditional Mayan ceremony and a show in the hotel’s new on-site boutique, ZAK IK for its retail debut of the collection.

The images will serve to visually answer the all important show question- ” what was your inspiration.”

AZULIK, meaning “Blue Wind” is a combination of Spanish and Mayan words.

The collection reflects this color palette of vibrant endless blue skies, tropical plants and white sands beaches of Tulum.

The collection features fabrics perfect for the warm weather it was meant for, including sandwashed silk, puckered organic cotton/ linen, cotton artisan handloom Ekats and tencel jerseys, seen in solids as well as prints such as jungle camo and zebra butterfly.

Join Nicholas K to experience the collection on September 7th, 2017 at 9:00 AM via @Nicholaskstudio – no RSVP required.

Spreading Love For One Another

Lauren Conrad in response to the recent tragedy in Charlottesville, Virginia over the weekend, took to Instagram Tuesday evening to not only show off her very own newborn, Liam James Tell, but to spread a powerful message of love.

On Saturday, violence broke out at a Unite The Right rally in Charlottsville, injuring a number of people, and killing one, who is Heather Heyer, reports The Daily Progress.

Because of this, Lauren use the words of Martin Luther King, Junior being “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.  Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”

And one of Lauren’s dear photographer friends, Elizabeth Messina, added her own light to the situation saying that “I hope that we can all learn to love each other a little more so that our children can live in a world with less hate and more acceptance and understanding.”

It’s also announced that a funeral for Heather Heyer, 32, will be held at the Paramount Theater at 11 a.m. today, where the slain individual is expected to be remembered.

Not On Vibrate, But Off

If one is on an airplane, then one knows they’re totally cutoff from the world (via phone calls and text), but they can at least still do videos, music, and work, but Lauren Conrad today forbids anybody from using mobile devices while on vacation.

Lauren recommends disabling any app one may have that makes it possible for them to look at work email so there’s no need to see your phone, and going somewhere off the grid where reception is nowhere remotely possible to take place.

Lauren says also to leave that precious expensive or inexpensive laptop of your where it usually is for the most part, at home, and pack yourself a paperback book instead of downloading a book so you’re not tempted to check into social media.

The Fondue Connection

Lauren Conrad with Us Weekly on Saturday shared the many wonderful ways you can have a fondue party with cheese, and anything beyond cheese.

Now, a cheese fondue is reserved for dippers like fruits and vegetables, but a chocolate fondue reaches out to strawberries, clementines, blondies, meringues, toasted marshmallows, and graham crackers.
