Shopping Challenge: Russian
My friends Mike and Thea just came back from a trip to Australia and New Zealand. During their travels they encountered this store proclaiming “Russian is so hot right now” and emailed it to me immediately. If the Aussies say so, it must be true!
Actually, it’s not just down under. Others agree. Handbag.com has a great slideshow that illustrates some pieces of this trend that will be available in the UK in the fall.
How can you add a little Russian to your wardrobe now? Try a military-style blazer, wrap a dramatic scarf around your head a la Nicole Richie or go for a bold blue and red print. Don’t overdo it. You could end up looking like a mail order bride or babushka if you’re not careful.
