bet you didn’t know that mario testino is more than just a world-reknowned photographer — thanks to a line of kaftans, bags, and jewelry created exclusively for net-a-porter, he is now *officially* a designer. the pieces were created for the lima-based charity mate and a percentage of proceeds from purchases will be donated. you go, mario!

were you aware that it only takes one piece to instantly look like an adorable sailor? 

cynthia rowley launched her first collection of eyewear this morning. with non-prescription lenses priced at $99 per pair and optical lenses for $129, mashable is comparing rowley’s line to that of warby parker but while there are tons of styles (30, to be exact) and you can sign up for home try-on kits (experiment with up to four pairs for a week), this is not a “one for one” project wherein customers donate a pair of glasses to someone in need. therefore, while the prices are similar, the overall platform is not. nevertheless, this provides eyewear aficionados with even more affordable options.

premature disclosure: sister zucker is getting married in around two weeks and the whole planning process is starting to get exciting and not stressful. finally!

with that in mind, i wanted to prepare you — i am currently creating a massive wedding guide for the atypical bride and maid of honor to be published post-wedding. it will feature the best engagement and wedding gifts on etsy, non-pervy accessories for bachelorette parties, cute items to include in attendee gift bags, and more. 

two more days to enjoy the opening ceremony sample sale, which features markdowns of up to 90% off on labels like kenzo, rodarte, proenza schouler, and acne. in other words, if (like me) you can’t usually afford opening ceremony — now you can!

for resort 2014, rebecca minkoff drew influence “from the free spirit of a girl on the road with a band as they travel along the pacific coast highway.” aight. sounds cool. if you aren’t as good at pretending you know what that means as i am, the aesthetic is a slight nod to the musical age of the 80s with punk and pop elements. think: neon tweed jogging pants, zippers on sweater sleeves, floral moto jackets, and lace bombers. 

i’m not good at sports, but you would never know it if you saw me on the street wearing any of these shirts! i bet you’d say to yourself, “that girl looks like she would be talented at badminton” and be totally unaware that my eye-hand coordination is shit.
