4 Fab Fall 2010 Fashion Tips from LOFT

LOFT is new-ish on my shopping radar.  I've become better acquainted with the brand after attending several seasonal previews.  

As a result, my statement necklace collection has certainly increased. But gifting and endless glasses of champagne aside, as a shopper in search of timeless wardrobe staples that can easily transition from day to evening, I've become a fan of the chain.  

So I asked LOFT Online Senior Stylist Lisa Bradkin for her Fall 2010 Fashion wardrobe tips.  Here are Bradkin's must-have styles:



  • BOLD STRIPES. Stripes are an easy way to give solid colors a kick, but we love them best mixed with other prints and textures—the look is irreverent and fun.

  • A CONVERSATION-STARTING NECKLACE. A big, sparkly statement piece is the easiest way to elevate an outfit of easy basics or tried-and-true favorites. Our most gorgeous Fall pieces feature richly colored faceted stones, rough-cut crystal, chains and heavy cord.

  • GENIUS JEANS. We are doing the coolest motocross jeans for Fall in blue and in black. Even if you don’t consider yourself a “jegging” girl, you will LOVE our comfy and sleek denim legging.

  • THE RIGHT BOOT. Nothing says Fall like a great boot. We love our lace-up booties, especially in chocolate brown. A thick-heeled ankle boot instantly gives dresses a modern proportion. The over-the-knee flat boot is also a wardrobe staple that can be worn countless ways!

Conway Discount Clothing Chain Closing in New York City

(Tracy E. Hopkins) It's the end of a budget shopping era. Conway discount stores are closing in New York City . As of this weekend, a sign on the sole Herald Square location (34th Street btwn 7th and 8th Ave) says the store will close in "7 Days." Before I relocated to the Big Apple, I was introduced to the discount chain while on a bus trip from Baltimore.  I recall the first time I saw Conway's signature pink bags carried by hurried shoppers in midtown. And Miss Foster, the trip organizer and a bargain hunter from way back, took me to the store for the first time. Conway store in the Fulton Mall./Tracy E. Hopkins When I moved here in 1994, my love affair with Conway continued.  I furnished my first apartment with discount knick-knacks and home goods from the store.  And much to my chagrin, in hindsight, I curated most of my wardrobe for my first full-time job from the long-shuttered 42nd Street and Third Avenue store. One regretful ensemble: Lime green and...

Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater Graces Brooklyn Academy of Music, June 4-9, 2024

Dance is expression. Dance is spiritual. Dance is activism. Dance is life. I feel most alive when I am listening to music and dancing.  As a spectator and fan, some of my fondest moments of watching dance performances have been witnessing the dignity and grace of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. Every time I see the Ailey company, I am inspired, moved, and grounded in the beauty and complexity of the African American experience.  Photo by Paul Kolnik For me, the highlight is always "Revelations," Mr. Ailey's three-part ode to his upbringing in the Black Baptist church. The three sections -- "Pilgrim of Sorrow"; "Take Me to the Water"; and "Move, Members, Move" -- tell the story of African American faith and persistence from slavery to freedom. Over the weekend,  I had the pleasure of taking an outdoor Community Workshop in downtown Brooklyn, where we learned some of the choreography for "Revelations." I beamed from ear to ear...
