Marina Larroude

Market Director; Style.com.  New York

You can thank Marina Larroudé—the market director for Style.com—for all the insane accessories and ready-to-wear products featured on the biblical fashion site. Larroudé grew up in the Brazilian cities of Araçatuba and São Paulo, where she started her career as a contributing editor for Vogue Brazil. Her coveted closet collection has been a work in progress for a long time, boasting treasures from around the world, along with a slew of pieces passed down from her mother. As we learned from our “The Little Black Jacket” collab with CHANEL on Monday, Larroudé’s classic 2.55 in white patent was 'borrowed' from her mother for her honeymoon—and almost a decade later it has yet to be returned. (Sorry for letting the cat out of the bag.) That being said, it looks like Larroudé’s lovely little daughter Gloria is set to inherit some of her mommy’s best Manolos, Loubs and—of course—CHANEL. Larroudé has a special knack for colour and prints—but hey, after scouring the markets since 2006, you’ve got to have that stuff down to a science. She has an impeccable eye for the unique, but she's really drawn to a "single sole, which is beautifully made." Her go-to brands? Gianvito Rossi, Manolo, Céline and Roger Vivier. Our time with Larroudé was spent getting insider secrets: she dished out her beauty must-haves (Larroudé swears by Shiseido Sun Protection Compact Foundation) and her holiday escapes to her hometown, where she visits every year at Christmas-time. But what we were most intrigued about was her organizational skills: Larroudé has a serious passion for organization, which lends to her keen sense of style. "I'm OCD when it comes to my closet," she confessed to us. "Pretty much every Saturday I re-order things back into place." Some people spend Saturdays sleeping in, and some spend them keeping their closet clean...to each their own, right?

I'm OCD when it comes to my closet: pretty much every Saturday I re-order things back into place. I like to keep everything by color, dresses on one side, skirts on the other, T-shirts, sweaters, and denim in the drawers; and I'm also obsessed with hangers. Beside my metal skirt hangers, everything else is wood and monogrammed—crazy, I know.

I'm crazy for printed pants, what else can I say? I like the contrast of the tie-dye pants and the polka-dot Miu Miu pair against my daughter Gloria's pink rug.

I don’t think I own a pair of ballerinas at the moment. When it comes to flats, I either wear Roger Viviers or loafers.

And here are my bags: the green one is the Prismick from Roger Vivier and a new favourite. The two-tone clutch is R+Y Augousti, the minaudieres are from Kotur; there's a vintage piece from Louis Vuitton, a few CHANELs, a Coach pouch, and a Ferragamo black and white piece.

Style.com Print: so much work, so much going into one issue; a good recap of the season for fashion obsessives like ourselves. It's a very tight team and we have our hands full, but it's such a pleasure being part of it. The earring was a Christmas present from my husband. All I can say is that he knows me well!

Earring, Gaia Repossi

This woman does prints like no one else. I pre-ordered this dress and got so excited when it finally arrived six moths later! The mini bag is from a time when they used to show in New York and I used to help them with the shows; it left the runway and went straight to my house. The sandals are a perfect match to Gloria's scooter!

The white CHANEL bag used to belong to my mother, and I borrowed it almost a decade ago for my honeymoon but never returned it. The black one I bought the first time I went to Europe for the men's shows; I still want to get one in a bright color.

Colored and printed denim on the bottom, and blues and blacks on top. Current/Elliot, J Brand, Genetic, MiH, and AG jeans are the ones that fit me best. But if I like the style and color I don't care about the label.

Pumps! I've been living in them. I bought the beige and pink pair at a sample sale and the purple suede ones are are beyond comfortable. She does these pumps in every color, and the price is not as crazy as most other brands.

Feminine, sexy, and timeless. I don’t think it was conscious, but I became tired of too much going on in a shoe. Single sole and beautifully made is what I'm drawn to lately. Gianvito Rossi, Manolo, Céline, and Roger Vivier are my go-to brands.

My vintage watch was a present from my husband. The bag I bought after saving all my money from freelance jobs when I was still working in Brazil.

This picture is so goth! I got the pink furry sandals when I was in Europe for the shows, and when I came back home my husband was like, "What's that? Is that for you to wear inside or outside the house?" The green booties were a find at a sample sale, and I was convinced I had to have them. I only wore them twice, but I like the way they look. The clutch used to be a real Bible—it's all handmade. The black pump was best described by the man himself as a “winter cocktail shoe.”

Meredith Wendell does the most special belts in the market—I have a collection of them. J.Crew has some fun ones in metallics, neons, and leopards prints, and at a very good price. For jewelry, my list of designers is endless, but it definitely starts with Eddie Borgo, Herve Van der Straeten, and Tom Binns.
