Dear Readers,

As you can see, Restless Style has a new editor, and I couldn't be more excited. Over the next few months, you'll see RS broaden its coverage scope, branching out from Fashion, Beauty and Style, to include the People and Personalities that make things tick. We hope you agree with us that Style is more than things, it's a frame of mind and a way of engaging with the world and the people who shape it. So, fasten your seatbelts as we take you places you've never been.

Stay Restless and Stylish,

Billy Abbot

"A good stylist can put together a great outfit using designer clothes and incredible jewelry," he says. "But a great stylist knows how to transform something run-of-the-mill into something one-of-a-kind." In this, his premiere column for Restless Style, By George shows how a beaded belt can take an outfit from simple to smashing…
