With a spring relaunch, former shirt label Equipment revisits its classic boyfriend shirt that made all the rage in the ‘80s. Founded in 1976 by Christian Restoin (hubby of editrix Carine Roitfeld), the line was shuttered in 1998 when Restoin decided to step aside to support Roitfeld in her new role as fashion arbiter of French Vogue. Now thanks to pal Serge Azria (brother of Max and creative director of Current/Elliott and Joie), Equipment is bringing back its signature silk menswear shirts with two patch pockets and with Restoin as a creative consultant naturally.

Fun factoid: Restoin met the French Voguette when she called in some Equipment shirts for a fashion shoot she was styling.

Ten years ago, Denmark-born designer Camilla Skovgaard traded her design kit for the chance to hit the books at the Royal College of Art. Following a seven-year stint in Dubai as shoemaker to the wives and daughters of local Sheikhs, she set course for London in pursuit of a masters degree during which time her eponymous label took form. Now the globetrotting designer who splits her time between three continents is known for her signature razor edge soles. Her hard hitting spring collection includes stiletto sandals with an asymmetric ankle cuff and a pair of peep toe mules all complete with spiky soles, natch.

While it may not be time yet to pull out the sunscreen and beach towels for us on the East Coast (darn you Left Coasters!), us girls in the office are still wistfully dreaming of spring sunshine… while running through our shopping check list naturally. Top of the list is something to carry that sunscreen and towel. Luckily there is this sand-friendly See by Chloé tote that fits the bill thanks to its practical plastic coating and a pretty psychedelic floral lining. And if it’s color you’re looking for, opt for its Barbie pink twin.

Indian-born, London-raised, and New York-educated Malini Murjani is a regular globetrotter who takes inspiration from Spanish beaches to create a collection filled with muted metallics and summery hues. Style must run in the family as Murjani’s father is a noted retail magnate who has brought outposts for Jimmy Choo, Gucci, and La Perla to India.

New to Intermix, Murjani’s hardware embellished hobo is turning heads for its ability to be muted whilst covered in a golden mesh metal. The camel colored bag is covered entirely on one side and just along the tops of its handles on the other side with the fine mesh.

Cargo skinny jeans may seem like an oxymoron until you hand the shears to J Brand who has melded utility with a slim silhouette. For that tapered fit, the jeans are heavily seamed (we’re talking four vertical seams down the front, back, and both sides!) and sculpted at the knees with a diagonal inset that emphasizes its combat-ready look. Of course the requisite cargo pockets still remain however they are positioned higher and at the thighs. Expect a short-term wait as these jeans are on their way to our warehouse after a slight snow day delay so preorder now.
