2009 Fall New York Fashion Week: Thakoon

There's nothing I like more than a smart, sexy, and sassy collection.

There's nothing I like more than a smart, sexy, and sassy collection. Thakoon Panichgul’s collection was all that — and more. For Fall, the designer showed us his wearable yet unique take on feminine dressing with an assortment of pretty silk prints, nude organza, and furry textiles. For cuts, he diversified his offerings to include an array of tailored separates and equally engaging frocks.

I'm smitten over his genius placement of embellishments; check out the awesome sheer slices on this cobalt blue dress. Also, take note of Thakoon's cool prints and occasional pops of bright color. From start to finish, he created a line flowing with distinctive, divine ready-to-wear clothes.

It's been hectic for me these past couple months. After all the Fashion Week festivities, I'm promising myself a relaxing ski trip in Tahoe. I can't wait to kick back, drink hot chocolate in front of the fire, and hit the slopes. It's still a couple weeks away but it doesn't hurt to plan ahead. I asked you to help me find a cute cabin look for my little vacay in the mountains.

I started you off with these American Apparel Ear Muffs ($20) because the bright color will make it easy to spot me as I swoosh my way down the hill. Let's see what you conjured up!


Look #1, created by MashiaraQCS, is soft and cozy. Smart thinking on the waterproof boots!

New York Fashion Week, Fall 2009: Best-Dressed Guests

I've said it before, I'll say it again: Fashion Week is the ultimate time to step up your fashion game. It's no time to be shy or play it safe. You have tons of eyeballs on you and you better believe those eyeballs are sizing your style up. But only a handful of ladies succeed in looking smashing, head to toe. Actresses usually opt for pretty, while industry insiders, like Nina Garcia, walk the fashion-forward route. We're well into New York Fashion Week now, so I present to you my best-dressed guests thus far.
