News from the world of QSW:

Falling for The Big Apple

I know that officially it’s not even summer yet, but Quiksilver Women’s Fall Collection hits stores July 15th. You may be wearing your cut-off denim shorts, but if you hit up the shops this summer you will find yourself drawn to trying on plaid dresses, jackets to layer it up, and alluring colors of autumn.

The Spring/Summer Collection was introduced with our incredible “It Girls” of the West Coast, and for Fall we didn’t want the other Coast to feel left out - so we jumped on a plane and landed in the city that never sleeps - New York!

The moment I stepped out into the unusually cool night air and hailed a cab, the energy of the city took over. Style was crawling up and down the streets, and inspiration lurked around each corner. I knew we had picked the best place for the Fall Collection to come alive.

More to come….

Parisian Chic

1970's

Living in my menswear inspired button-down. Feeling very Parisian-chic today - though all I can think about is the fact that I am leaving for London in 48 hours!

American Pastime

Easy on Sunday Night

Back from New York and starting to pack and get ready for my trip to London and Italy! Jet-setting can be fun but a bit tiring. More news and pics from my trip to New York are coming soon.

This is a look I wore before I headed to New York, a summer evening hitting up an American pastime - Baseball! As I have mentioned, my man has passed on his love for baseball and I can’t help but jump out of my seat when I see a home run or boo when the opposing team gets a break. Hitting up a game calls for casual chic and my new Quiksilver jean jacket was the perfect layer for the cool California weather.  Breaking in the flats has become a priority before I head out on my trek across Italy - stilettos just don’t cut it on cobblestones.

Plopped on a bed in New York looking out over the Hudson River and the Manhattan cityscape. Pure glee! Out in the city tomorrow to shoot some short fashion films - stay tuned. Got to hit the hay.

70's Chic

There is something so simple and sexy about wearing a white oxford shirt. It’s a bit over-sized as if it just came off my man and classic enough to be oh-so-chic. Since purchasing my own oxford I been living in it day in and day out, dressing it up and dressing it down.

Today I went for 70’s Chic channeling jet-setter, Bianca Jagger.. oh..to have her closet… studio 54 heaven!
