Minimalist looks from Calvin Klein. (The spring show didn’t supplant my craze for his resort collection, but these two dresses are interesting.) See the rest at Style.com.

Change is in the air, and fall is on the way. I’m trying to savor the last bits of summer while enjoying the much improved sleeping weather! Hope you are, too. That said,

On with the Five:

  1. flavored
  2. Market
  3. untitled
  4. star on a red barn
  5. it is still summer

See you later today with a bit more New York fashion, and then again on Monday. Happy weekend.

Hot Chocolate Favors

The current issue of Charleston Weddings magazine has the most adorable dessert bar feature. Baked’s Charleston shop got together with the ladies of Sideshow Press to create an enticing chocolatey spread. I so want to coöpt this idea for the holidays. Wouldn’t it make a delightful favor for any winter gathering? Those marshmallows are calling to me!

For more photos and ideas and recipes from this party (including how to make the treat bags pictured above), click over to the Charleston Weddings website to see the full story, “Dessert Bar None”.

One last lovely dress for today: this ballet-inspired piece from Vera Wang. Love it, love her (see the full collection at Style.com) and I have filed it away to wear in my virtual life.
