Belts

Simply Fab: Des Kohan Four-Way Belt

Any time an item can be used in more ways than one, it's simply fab in my book.

Any time an item can be used in more ways than one, it's simply fab in my book. That's why the term "Kill two birds with one stone" was invented!

This Des Kohan Four-Way Belt, $235, is super versatile because, as the name suggests, it can be worn four ways (perhaps more if you want to get really creative). The first way uses all the materials provided. Then you can play with the rest of the belt pieces for minimal or artsy looks - the possibilities are endless. One belt, four ways, so much fun!

Designer Spotlight

Designer Spotlight: Mon Petit Oiseau

I can never tire of great little floral dresses.

I can never tire of great little floral dresses. Mon Petit Oiseau answers my LFD calling, and gives me even more: designer Tracy Wilkinson has bestowed her Fall collection with wooly scarves, high-waisted tweedy skirts, and retro seventies prints.

Wilkinson's clothes are not the only thing that is cute; the story behind the name 'Mon Petit Oiseau' is pretty good too. She grew up in England, where girls are sometimes referred to as "birds." It's a term of endearment, so for this reason Tracy chose 'Mon Petit Oiseau' or ‘my little bird’ as the name for her collection. She has a loyal following, with fans like Mischa Barton, Lucy Liu, and Reese Witherspoon. Add me to that list!

Coach

The Bag To Have: Coach Camilla Printed Python Hobo

Coach has never wowed me...until now!

Coach has never wowed me...until now! Check out this Coach Camilla Printed Python Hobo, $798, that Fashionhore Fab found. Thanks darling!

It's utterly luxurious in appearance but not too insane in price - and that is such a rarity in the fashion world. I adore everything about it: the rich brown hue, the grommet details, the turnlock closure and the size. And unlike so many logo-encrusted bags, it's understated, and it doesn't scream "Coach."

This Camilla bag could work wonders for you. It could instantly transform a simple all-black outfit into a sophisticated stunner and would immediately take a day look into night. Just lovely.

Celebrity Style

Celebrity Style: Angie Harmon

Actress Angie Harmon looks like a sexy and modern mermaid in her turquoise dress at the ABC All Star Party.

Actress Angie Harmon looks like a sexy and modern mermaid in her turquoise dress at the ABC All Star Party. I love how she kept her bodice covered and showed off her slim (and tan) stems. Other than her purse and shoes, she wore no other accessories, so I gave her pretty earrings to complete the look!

Come Fab Finding With Me: Becks Watching!

I've suddenly become a huge soccer fan - specifically a huge LA Galaxy fan - I just don't know why (wink).

I've suddenly become a huge soccer fan - specifically a huge LA Galaxy fan - I just don't know why (wink). Let's imagine I was going to see my team play this month - I would definitely have to look good! I absolutely plan to hang around after the game, and see if I can catch David Beckham's eye. Or, if I don't succeed, maybe I can find Posh and see what Fab outfit she's wearing!

I'll start you off with this Paul Smith Cropped bomber jacket, $435 (originally $1086), to help me look as posh as Posh.

Let's all go Fab Finding for a great soccer watching (and Becks watching) ensemble. Come back and tell me when your Fab Finds are up and tag them with Becks watching.

Oh! Now, you can build outfits by creating a list of clothing items. We have everything you need to build outfits with and you can use your Fab Find bookmarks too. This is an even better way to put together an entire outfit when you are completing your Fab Finding missions.

Last night, Sienna and her sister Savannah launched the debut Spring 2008 collection of their line Twenty8Twelve.

Last night, Sienna and her sister Savannah launched the debut Spring 2008 collection of their line Twenty8Twelve. The inspiration for the new collection? "Patti Smith, Keith Richards, free-thinking, radical people who aren't influenced by others," Sienna told Instyle.

Guests like Anne Hathaway, Lily Donaldson, Agyness Deyn, and Rachel Zoe mingled with the Miller sisters atop the Gramercy Park Hotel in New York City. Wish I could have been there...

Love It or Hate It

Roberto Cavalli Iridescent Leather Pumps: Love It or Hate It?

Wow, I never thought the terms "iridescent" and "pumps" would ever go together and look so delicious in the process (although, I do believe Dolce & Gabbana toyed with this idea before, circa 1999).

Wow, I never thought the terms "iridescent" and "pumps" would ever go together and look so delicious in the process (although, I do believe Dolce & Gabbana toyed with this idea before, circa 1999). Roberto Cavalli's Iridescent Leather Pumps, $875, posted by Leeluvfashion in the Love it or Hate It? group are simply delectable. Although the peep-toe pump style is nothing new, the green and blue iridescent leather makes them a hit. Do you agree?
