Influential International Style: Daphne Guinness

Daphne Guinness, heiress to the Guinness family fortune, sure seems to know what she's doing. Quite simply, she's a haute couturier's dream. She's open to all sorts of eclectic, wacky, detailed styling - and has the collection to prove it. Although she seems to prefer a simple color palette of blacks, whites and creams, they never appear the same way. Whether it's a kerchief neckline, Jetson-esque cap sleeves or leopard print detailing, Guinness can pull it off in spades. As one of the world's most prolific collectors of haute couture (what wouldn't you give to also hold that title?), she's a risk-taker, and often a winner of the fashion set. Rather than sticking to any rules, she simply has fun. Think Alexander McQueen meets Karl Lagerfeld meets Vivienne Westwood. Check out my slideshow for a sampling of Daphne Guinness' style!

Stylehiver Spotlight: Her Hive Is Like Walking Through a Guggenheim of Style!

Modern, sophisticated and utterly chic, Stylehiver Ximenarm's picks look cut and pasted from the New York or Paris society pages. Couture ball gowns, sequined Studio 54-style cocktail dresses, thick bangle jewelry and modern museum-worthy housewares are just just some of the items that make her Hive feel like a curated show! And when it comes to fashion, Ximenarm seems relatively unaffected by the summer season and its corresponding trends. While others bookmark delicate pastel prints, open-toe flats and cotton sundresses, Ximenarm stays cosmopolitan cool with structured shift dresses in bold patterns and ultra high-end gladiator heels. Her urban-chic style has definitely got me hooked! Check out my Slideshow to see 5 favorite looks from today's featured Stylehiver!
