Ladylike Style

February 25, 2016Uncategorizeddaniel wellington, flared trouser, french style, ladylike styleEmily Kammeyer

Hello Spring! Or at least it felt like it for a New York minute. Life has been full of excitement, hard work and lots of adventure. I’m very excited for some of the news, stories and beauty to come on Accessories Gal and E.Kammeyer Accessories.

I’ve been deep in research for my next collection. I’m trying something a bit new and different. The next collection will be featuring some new materials I’ve never worked. There will even be a little something in my emerging men’s collections. While scouring the Internet and scouting a lot of street style, my current obsession is a the flared trouser. I’ve always loved a great flared leg. It’s come and gone, and I will be the first to stand up and say I’m pumped that it’s back. These aren’t the flared denim of my high school days though, they’re a bit more refined, a little more flared and the rise is scooched up a few inches (thank god). I’ll be honest, I’m just not a low rise gal anymore.

On this fine Saturday afternoon I decided to take my new flared trousers out for a spin in a very Persian inspired outfit. Visions of Paris still dance through my head from my recent nuptials in France this last May. I’m most definitely still feeling the French vibe.

I’ve always been a bit of a more is less kinda girl when it comes to bracelets. My husband has had a good laugh watching me spend up to 5 minutes taking off all of my jewelry to get in bed. I took a different approach today and let my new time piece do all the talking. I love this menswear inspired watch (heck I think this may even be the men’s version, I do have big hands). Daniel Wellington watches really caught my eye this fashion week with their simplistic, classic design. Plus you can change out the straps to match the wrist stack of the day. The team at DW was super cool to extend a 15% discount to Accessories Gal readers. Just use the code EKAMMEYER at Danielwellington.com.

Inspired by a few of my girlfriends I decided to test out a choker instead of my standard long necklaces. This isn’t quite the choker of our 90’s day’s, and I’m loving the elegant update. To be completely honest, this is an easy one to pull off. I work with leather trims in my collection, so had this sitting around my studio. But if you are so inclined, head down to 38th st in the garment district and you can snag a bit of leather twine for yourself. If not in NYC, it’s an easy thing to pick up at any fabric or trimmings store. I added a dash of lace and a cheeky little hat to finish the look.

Until next time! xoxo, Emily

Exceptional Beaune

Hello again from Beaune! Whenever Trevor and I travel we seem to find ourselves in once in a lifetime situations. And this day was no exception. We met up with a friend for lunch that we met last time we were in France. He speaks very little English, and we speak very little French. So needless to say, our conversations involve large gestures and what looks like a game of charades! Our friend surprised us and asked if we would like to meet one of his friends who is something of a wine distributor. We drove up to the currently closed distributor’s office, wondering if we would ever be seen again. He was nice enough to host us on his day off and open his doors. The next few hours were spent drinking bottles that I had the feeling were exceptional! When we asked our friend exactly what the distributor friend did he explained, “He finds exceptional wines for exceptional people”. Needless to say we were blown away by the little bit of exceptional wine he shared with us. So here’s a little taste of our exceptional visit to Beaune and the wonderful people we met! Exceptional Beaune- Dress: Scoop // Bracelets: Alexander Mcqueen Skull Bracelet (also love Alexander Mcqueen Gold_tone Twin Skull Bracelet!), Nike Fuel Band, Silver Custom Bracelet, E.Kammeyer Accessories Tassel Bracelet // Necklace: E.Kammeyer Accessories Tassel Necklace // Sunglasses: Prada // Nail Polish: Base: Shellac, Glitter Tip: JINsoon // Lip Color: Napoleon Perdis Lip Butter

Our lovely lunch with our new friends…and of course there was cheese…especially Epoisses!

Wine tasting with our friend from France, Fredrick and his “Exceptional” wine friend 🙂

French Style

Summer is here and for me that means time to travel! My fiance and I were back to Europe for 10 days this month and of course had to stop in Paris. Paris is everything to me, every time I’m there it’s like being home. All I want to do is wander the streets, eat at sidewalk cafes, and shop The Marais. French style is a hot topic right now, so here’s a peak at one of my favorite outfits from our days in the city of lights.
