Even before I saw super-stylish Rachel Bilson sporting these fringed boots on a recent shopping spree, I've been noticing a lot of Native American-inspired fringy fashions surfacing this Fall, including tunic-style dresses and leather accessories. Here are some of my favorite fringed finds.

I'm a sucker for vintage-inspired pieces, and the Spring 2007 line from Blumarine, unveiled Friday at Milan Fashion Week, is one of the most charming collections I've seen. These sorts of seductive and sweet retro-style pieces are Italian designer Anna Molinari's specialty: embellished cardigans, a-line party dresses, Peter Pan collars, and pretty, tailored bows. Slightly edgier details, including confetti-like beading and short skirts, allow the fashions to feel modern and not the least bit prissy. Though there were lots of neutrals and muted golds like we saw at New York Fashion Week, Blumarine also broke from the crowd with a heavy reliance on lavenders. To see the line, read more
Last night I went to a party that was BYOB, and I have to say: It's hard to pull off heels when you're toting a fifth of vodka and a liter of tonic down the street. I found myself coveting my friend's fabulous flask, which seems a far more ladylike option. Here are some of the most fashionable flasks I could find.
Troika Round Flask, $50, available here.
Brocade Wrapped 3-Ounce Flask, $18, available here.

On Wednesday, I asked you guys to come fab finding with me for a good outfit to wear while entertaining at home. Since you want to wear something comfortable and just a little bit glitzy for the occasion, I chose this Ya-Ya Black Cashmere Rectangle Sweater Wrap, available for $222 here and let you guys go Fab Finding to complete the outfit.
This time, there were a ton of great responses from TeamSugar's Fab Finders; most of you thought very hard about the ideal shoes, and cropped pants were also very popular, since they are sassy but sensible at the same time. (To learn what a Fab Find is and how to make one, click here.) We also had some great outfits from some newcomers to Come Fab Finding With Me, including ShoeS, who chose white cropped pants and these Marc Jacobs Distressed Mary Janes, available for $635 here. After all, just because you are home doesn't mean you can't wear heels.
