Designer Spotlight: Ruby Republic

What does Ruby Republic love?

What does Ruby Republic love? Easy to tell — she wears it on her sleeve. Accordions, kisses, Bora Bora, love . . .

This brand specializes in screen tees that are far from obnoxiously cutesy. The message is girlie but the colors are serious. Quite a striking combination. If Ruby's likes match up with yours, get yourself a tee for $24 a pop. Shirts aren't the company's only talent; it also makes jeans, swimwear, and accessories like belts, bags, necklaces, and hair ties. These are just some of Ruby Republic's favorite things.

Fendi To You Long Necklace: Love It or Hate It?

Fendi is an awesome Italian brand that continues to produce stellar clothing and handbags.

Fendi is an awesome Italian brand that continues to produce stellar clothing and handbags. But when it comes to jewelry, I'm not so sure. This Fendi To You Long Necklace ($235) is not my idea of a beautiful necklace. It's funky, I can definitely see Rihanna sporting it in a music video, but would you wear it?

Online Sale Alert! Rogan For Target Clearance Sale

It's no secret I'm in love with the diffusion lines at Target.

It's no secret I'm in love with the diffusion lines at Target. And it's definitely no secret that I love a sale. So when those inexpensive designer goods get even cheaper, I pounce like a jackal in the wild. To make room for the Richard Chai collection, Target is having a giant clearance sale on its Rogan line. Nothing is more than $11.24, this shift dress is $9.99 (down from $39.99), and surprisingly, the sizes aren't too picked over. Get it while the getting's good.

Freaky or Fabulous? The Royal Ronsons

Get out! You may recall yours truly was the melancholy bobbed Margot Tenenbaum for Halloween.

Get out! You may recall yours truly was the melancholy bobbed Margot Tenenbaum for Halloween. Not only is The Royal Tenenbaums Wes Anderson's finest, Bazaar has reinvented the dysfunctional fam with one of New York's crusty yet cool families: the Ronsons.

The twin sisters, Samantha, of Lindsay Lohan fame, and Charlotte, of fashion designer fame, and DJ brother, Mark, have dry wit down pat. From Samantha's fur and Hermes, Mark's Adidas track suit and Charlotte's tennis-esque garb, they nailed the wardrobe. But the Tenenbaum's had attitude, and I have to say, so do the Ronsons.

Celebrity Style: Kate Bosworth

Kate was looking bikinilicous on the beach with her beau. Her Diane von Furstenberg bandeau bikini is unavailable online, but if you dig the zigzag print, here it is in string bikini version (contact DVF if you must have Kate's). I'm a fan of wearing rugged jewelry beachside, so Kate's leather bracelets and ethnic necklace add to her Summer style. A black linen dress works for any occasion and her Chloe Paraty bag withstands the sand.
