What We're Wearing

Winter will reek havoc on your skin and I'm not okay with that. I am great about moisturizing my face quite religiously. But it doesn't stop there. I also exfoliate - does only moisturizing your skin get rid of dullness? I think not and I will share my magic secret. Today and all winter I use Tatcha's Rice Enzyme Powder. It comes in Classic, Gentle and Deep so you are sure to find one that will work for your specific skin type. Dewy, beautiful skin? Yes, thank you.

Perfectly Glossed Kisses,

Sutton

This Proenza Schouler spiral tee is one of my all-time favorite I'm-lazy-but-don't-want-to-look-like-crap staples. But I've been way overdoing my pleated leather skirt so I reached fort his Eryn Brinie boucle skirt. This skirt doesn't get a lot of wear simply because it's a bit hard to pair with a lot of tops and sweaters, but today I said right match be damned. So, what we have here is a print/pattern/texture clash if you will. I think it's working - I'm sure you'll let me know in the comments if you disagree? Plus, I'm happy I got to top it all off with my scary vintage tribal mask necklace, which I loved watching visibly freak out the man in front of me on the 6 train this morning.

Handbags & Hugs,

Astor

Our Story

We are Sutton and Astor Van Brigsby. We were born and raised on Park Avenue, a mere hop, skip and 30-second ride with our driver, Morton, from Fifth Avenue. Oh, yes, there was a time when our daily shopping trips were what chick-flick montages were made of – sales assistants scurried at our beck and call, we did lots of twirling in front of fitting room mirrors without spilling our glasses of champagne, and doormen helped Morton help us into the car with stacks of hatboxes – which had shopping bags of clothing and shoes inside of them, because we’re not really into hats. But our designer RTW-filled reality came crashing to a traumatizing end when our father went ballistic one day – WHY we do not know – and cut up our credit cards. Apparently, it bothered him that we had spent his secretary’s annual salary in one trip to Bergdorf. He completely cut us off, I mean stone cold. With the exception of health insurance, cell phone bills, cable and electricity, we are COMPLETELY on our own. Left to our own devices to stay as well dressed as before but on a salary that doesn’t even compare to our past allowance. So, I, Astor, took a job in fashion and Sutton took a job in beauty. It is all we know and love, after all, and we figured that way we would have our bases covered with discounts – what else is a girl to do? If you’re like us, trying to keep a closet stocked with the kind of stuff Bill Cunningham will notice you in on a less-than-desirable salary, join us, won’t you? We’ll support each other, we’ll have cry fests over things we can’t have – and we’ll come up with ways to make the number of those things less and less by hunting sample sales, scouring the internet for discounts and even DIYing up our own versions. We WILL get through this together.
