"Amanda Brooks hit up several shows in Paris, so she enjoyed the opportunity to reconnect with Jennifer Creel and Lisa Airan; Genevieve Jones, meanwhile, has been busy archiving her vintage collection and working on her accessory line. "You're kidding," she said, when informed that Marc Jacobs himself had been wearing her safety pin earrings in white gold at his Louis Vuitton show. "I knew he had my jewelry, but that's cool. I wonder who will do his wedding rings?" Not a bad metaphor for this party, dear--all in all, a total lovefest."

Great thread:flower:

Great thread :) What does she do now?

Sometimes though, I do feel like her outfits overwhelm her. But most of the images here on this thread so far seem to suit her somewhat.

She is a fashion consultant and has a jewelery line. I think that her style has really evolved overtime, she now wears more unique interesting pieces but convincingly i think, I always see her in her clothes, not just some prescribed style.

AMANDA BROOKS

President Amanda Brooks Inc., Contributing Editor, Men's Vogue and author of I Love Your Style, to be published by Harper Collins in September 2009

I'M WEARING my vintage army jacket, Tory Burch “Simone” cardigan, Tory Burch “Hanne” dress, YSL belt, Club
Monaco tights, Chanel bag and Chanel boots.

WHEN I WEAR TORY I FEEL put together.

MY STYLE MANTRA is you should always feel like yourself in your clothes, even if that self is different every day.

WHEN IT COMES TO STYLE MY MOTHER has the best taste of anyone I know, but she was never scared to embrace something wonderfully tacky. Her mix of tasteful and tacky is what rubbed off on me the most.

ALL-TIME MOST STYLISH MOVIE is Mahogany with
Diana Ross.

MY SIGN is Taurus.

A CHARITY I'M COMMITED TO is The Scott Polar Research Institute at Cambridge University, England.

MY PERFECT DAY IN N.Y. is spent entirely at home with my husband and kids, playing board games, reading, doing arts and crafts and having family friends over for brunch.

DATE NIGHT is Freeman's. I always order smoked trout.

GIRL'S NIGHT is at The Elephant, before that La Esquina.

IF NOT N.Y., I'D LIVE in Laurel Canyon in Los Angeles.

Thanks
