Happy Birthday Chloë!

Chloë Sevigny has been a style risk taker from day one.
Chloe Sevigny Red Carpet Style

Chloë Sevigny has been a style risk taker from day one. The proof is in the pictures. In honor of her birthday today — congrats, girl! — let's take a trip down red-carpet lane to admire this fearless, fashion-forward woman. Since '98, Chloë's style has not changed that drastically. She has always favored off-kilter, yet totally sexy pieces. Black is a staple, but she doesn't turn her back on bold colors. Yellow, fuchsia, orange, purple — they're all part of her closet. She never shies away from sheer and sliced, but also rocks conservative ensembles like second skin. And, get this, she wore an oversized bow headband back when whimsical wasn't the word. Lastly, she's got some killer legs. A true fashion chameleon, we heart you, Chloë.

Top Chef Style: Padma Lakshmi

Padma Lakshmi added just enough femininity to her black suit in this scene from Top Chef.

Padma Lakshmi added just enough femininity to her black suit in this scene from Top Chef. Her slicked back hair helped to accentuate her sheer, ruffled blouse (very similar to this one by Etro). She smartly tucked her top into high-waisted pants, which matched her cropped black blazer. Her knotted peep-toe pumps, gold bracelet, and hoop earrings completed the look perfectly.

Step into the rain forest and you will find exotic felines, some Wild Things, and dangling jungle legs.

Step into the rain forest and you will find exotic felines, some Wild Things, and dangling jungle legs. I'm talking about leaf-, animal-, and reptilian-print leggings – are you game? I know, these leggings are kinda crazy, but ridiculously fun, too. Peep Whitney Port for stimulation. During a visit in LA, The City star donned a pair of black and gold leaf-print leggings with a casual sweatshirt and flats for an ultracomfortable, ultrafashionable look. Tip: Always keep your top and accessories to a minimum when going exotic. Let the legs do all the talking.

Zac Posen's Lower-Priced Line Back in Action!

Last we spoke about Zac Posen's lower-priced diffusion line, it was on hold due to the weak economy.

Last we spoke about Zac Posen's lower-priced diffusion line, it was on hold due to the weak economy. No fear — it's back. Z Spoke is set to hit Saks Fifth Avenue exclusively in the Spring. The 60-piece range focuses on sportswear via knits, blazers, pleated khaki shorts, and shirts. The best part? The starting price point is $78.

"Zac has always wanted to do a line that would be Zac Posen, but maybe talk to a different girl,” said Ron Frasch, Saks's president and chief merchandising officer. No doubt it will speak to a different customer than his RTW line — one who is just as fabulous but budget-conscious.
