1 Mad Men Season 4

Everyone talks the talk about Don Draper but RTR's heart is with Roger Sterling. Last September, Jenn practically verbally assaulted John Slattery on the street when he tried to steal her cab on the way to the Doo.ri fashion show. After making amends when he politely offered up the cab, Jenn, Lara & John shared a cab ride of bliss uptown and chatted about Mad Men, Mona, and memories of SATC. Roger is definitely the most dapper on the show and he says what he means – however misogynistic it might be. RTR + Roger Forever. See below for our favorite RTR Mad Men inspired looks.

2 Our New Office

See pics here. It’s amazing!

3 Inception

Only half of our office has seen it, so we’ll resist posting the spoiler as Derek requested.

4 Lobster Rolls

Tis the season!

5 Ebay

Yes, Becky is about 10 years behind the rest of the world. But if you saw the smile she had on her face telling everyone how much her stuff is making, you’d understand why it’s on this list.

6 Purple Nail Polish

Our new stylist Emily loves it any shade.

7 This Lamp

MoMA style, Amazon prices.

8 RainyMood.com

Working in a room with 30 people is super fun, but it can be wee bit challenging to focus. This site helps Chondita go to a serene, happy place.

9 Delicious Dishes

Daria’s digging the Lobster Risotto at Recette, and Ashley is loving the Pani Frattau at her favorite brunch spot, Belcourt.

10 Brazilian Coffee

AJ’s hooked on it after her brother brought it back from a recent trip.

In honor of our new space, we're launching a new feature. Every day (or every day we have time!), we'll be posting a picture of what someone at RTR is wearing, most often our office It Girl Blaire.

Blaire will be the most frequently featured as every day at least someone in the office practically dies over her outfit. You can expect this post to mostly be "What Blaire's Wearing Today", but should anyone else wow us with award winning style, we'll be sure to share.

Here's what Blaire has to say about today's outfit "I love romps even though they're a pain to use the restroom in but this is one of my newer purchases from Topshop including my insanely comfortable black suede wedges. Belt, gold chain, and flower clip are vintage. Everyday there has to be a piece of Chanel on me somewhere...I went double the Chanel today with my long chain drawstring bag and pendant chain bracelet! Always mix and match. The best outfits come from not thinking about it!"

With that, we're off for the weekend. Enjoy! --Lara

Proenza Schouler's Fall collection has some great party styles for the grown up it-girl. With tweeds and prints paired with strong silhouettes, these are dresses that will make you take notice. And if you're looking to add some Proenza to your permanent wardrobe, you can't go wrong with their fish print jacquard tote - it's a seasonable statement piece that's shockingly affordable at only $325. It's available exclusive at their online store so get over to their site quickly, before it's too late! -- Lara

It may be Restaurant Week, but Matt’s made his mission burger focused, trying to hit as many spots as he can. #1 so far is the Minetta Tavern Black Label Burger (but basically anything Pat LaFrieda is dominating).

8 Chocolate/Vanilla Swirl Ice Cream Cones

Those Mr. Softee Ice Cream Trucks throughout the city are saving lives. Nadia, our new Sr. Director of Human Capital, had 3 this week!

Need we say more?

My upcoming dance card is booked solid with events ranging from destination weddings (hello Minnesota!) to 30^th birthday parties to fall fashion week. With new arrivals rolling in, here’s what I have my eyes on for each. Whatever’s in your datebook, make sure you reserve in advance now or you might miss your chance… -- Lara

Minnesota Wedding

My boyfriend's yet to fill me in on the dress code (what else is new), but one of these will do the trick.

30th Birthday Party

Approximately 50% of my friends seem to be celebrating this in the next 3 months so I'm glad I already know what I'll be wearing to one of them.

Fashion Week

I adore the entire fall collection from Proenza, but this dress is perfect for mixing business and mingling.

Stay tuned for Jenn's picks tomorrow!

Kelly Ripa is one of those celebrities that seems kinda normal despite the fact that she’s ridiculously gorgeous, fitter than fit, and has a beautiful, seemingly perfect family. She dresses cute, always smiles, and we’ve never heard a bad thing about her. So we were happy to see her looking like her usual tanned, fit, and friendly, smiling self in Rent the Runway’s Boho Mary Kate Dress. She looks great and is the perfect model for this easy summertime style that works for day or night. -- Lara

It’s week two of my photo tip series, Booking Your Wedding Photographer: Tips Series by Christian Oth. I launched the tip series with a strong focus on a photographer’s versatility and this week will focus on your photographer’s strength.  Following these tips will get you one step closer to getting great photographs that you’ll be able to cherish for years to come.

Week 2: Photographer’s Strength

What genre are they strongest in?  Take a look at your photographer’s background.  Do they specialize in fashion, editorial portraits, still-lifes, fine art or photojournalism?  Every photographer has special strengths in certain genres, but for weddings they must be able to take great photographs in all other genres as well.  Personally, I feel that it is good for a wedding photographer to have a strong background in photojournalism, because they are accustomed to capturing natural moments in an instant as they occur, rather than waiting to create posed, manufactured moments.

Can they take creative portraits?  A talented photographer should be able to take beautiful creative portraits not only of the bride and groom, but of the family and wedding party as well.  Formal portraits are often the most overlooked, but they are essential to every wedding.  Instead of a boring line-up, look for creative group and couple shots that have the feel of a fashion magazine spread.

Head out for a summer weekend with a perfect wardrobe - whether you're beach bound, city slick, or country couture. -- Lara

What inspired your Fall 2010 collection?

For Fall 2010 I wanted to focus on tailoring and draping. I love the combination of the two and I wanted to explore how they could exist together. I have a natural tendency toward draping so adding a more rigid construction allows me to see softer shapes from a different angle.

How did you go about designing the prints in this collection?

There were also two types of prints to help with the marriage of tailoring and draping. A softer, more painterly print and a geometric, linear print. The softer prints started off as watercolors, which were then developed digitally, and the geometric print was inspired by a glass mosaics. This season we wanted the prints to be more about representing surface textures.

Which part of the design process do you like the best?

The part I like the most is the beginning of the collection. The start of the collection is when it is just about developing ideas. I love researching different artists, draping new shapes, sketching anything that comes to mind, or re-developing an idea that never had the time to be completed. The beginning of the collection is a series of endless possibilities, which is why it is the process I enjoy the most.

How is the Doo.Ri brand growing in 2010?

We continue to grow our secondary line and hope to add accessories to the mix.

If you could sit front row at a fashion show for any designer in history, who would it be and why?

It would be the first collection either Yohji or Comme Des Garcons debuted in Paris. These two designers were and still are some of my favorites. When I was a student I loved their complete aesthetic - the color black and the exaggerated proportions. It was a strange type of beauty that I instantly fell in love with. I still consider myself a student of Fashion and still respect and admire the two designers, yet why I admire them now is for their amazing pattern work. As a designer who always began by draping I am amazed that all of their work is flat patterned.

How do you celebrate finishing a collection?

We normally do an after show dinner with staff. There are so many people involved in making a collection come together and the process can be intense and stressful- especially on very little sleep. Having an after party dinner is a way to thank everyone who has worked so hard as well as blow off steam- but also to celebrate no more working weekends and sleepless nights!

If a girl was going to purchase her first Doo.Ri piece, what would you want it to be?

A signature draped Jersey dress.
