 A few weeks ago, I posted that cosmetics company Uslu Airlines — founded by makeup artist Feride Uslu — was getting ready to collaborate with worldwide DJs (think Ed Banger and Rolleryboys) on a club-influenced range of nail polish.
Now comes word of Uslu Airlines’ second-round nail color collabo with German-born designer Bernard Willhelm, who is an industry favorite, having worked under iconic designers like Alexander McQueen and Vivienne Westwood.
The Uslu Airlines x Bernard Willhelm line, based on common airport destinations and hues from Willhelm’s current collection, dropped at OAK in New York recently.

 Into storage went the cottons and linens and out of storage came the wool and cashmere.
Now that the air is beyond just a bit chilly, wearing cashmere sweaters is honestly one of the better ways to get through any grey, winter day.
That, and sipping on a pumpkin spice latte.
