Anne Hathaway

This Week's Fab Favorite: Anne Hathaway

Seeing Anne Hathaway at Elle Magazine's 15th Annual Women in Hollywood Tribute in her standout platforms makes me wonder why more woman don't take the plunge on the red carpet.

Seeing Anne Hathaway at Elle Magazine's 15th Annual Women in Hollywood Tribute in her standout platforms makes me wonder why more woman don't take the plunge on the red carpet. Yes, the look is head-to-toe Spring '09 Marc Jacobs, but given his successful collection, I would wear the entire eclectic look, too. And, I would wear it ASAP, as Anne did. The youthful yet sophisticated Lurex-striped blue dress has the ease of a shirt dress but sharp shoulders — completely modern. Color is woven throughout and catapulted via the sash belt. Anne's hair is slightly messed, delivering a nonchalant attitude. And back to the shoes, bold, witty, Fab.

Found! Jessica Alba's Trippy Scarf

Anything slightly ghoulish is appealing to me right now, hello, Halloween is right around the corner.

Anything slightly ghoulish is appealing to me right now, hello, Halloween is right around the corner. When I spotted Alba's statement scarf I knew it was by goth accessory designer Thomas Wylde. The Thomas Wylde Spider Twill Scarf, Tar ($250) is a subtle way to pay homage to the Halloween gods. And, yes, it's an instant way to jazz up jeans and a white tank.

These Boots Are Made For Walking: Two Toned

Take a close look.
Oscar de la Renta at ShopStyle

Take a close look. Do you notice the subtle juxtaposition between the smooth leather and suede of these Oscar de la Renta Leather Boots ($1,195)? This expert two-toned technique adds an exciting and elusive touch to boots. I like how the suede inset breaks up the smooth leather in a harmonious, hip fashion. Be daring and opt for a pair with patent detailing or better yet, contrast your neutral tone with a pop of color.

Celebrity Style: Kate Moss

Kate Moss knows to make it in the industry — you must stay on top of the game.

Kate Moss knows to make it in the industry — you must stay on top of the game. She was spotted in London with an armful of fashion mags looking like a modern day Pocahontas. Genius for the supermodel to twin her knee-high Minnetonka moccasins with a pair of denim cutoffs. While she bares skin on her bottom half, a nubby sweater and signature fur jacket keeps her warm up top. Color me inspired.
