Raquel Zimmermann Poses For Yves Saint Laurent's Fall Ad

For Yves Saint Laurent's Fall campaign, Stefano Pilati chose Raquel Zimmermann to face off for the brand posing stealth in a menswear-inspired getup. Take a look at the first released image, shot by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin, of Zimmermann working slick masculine appeal. Sleek trousers and a printed jacket go perfect with her short 'do, and take note of the NYC backdrop. She's definitely channeling the workingwoman vibe — and with a very strong, slightly sexy demeanor. What do you make of YSL's latest ad?

Wild Thing: Shop Tribal-Inspired Jewelry For Summer

Tribal jewelry is undoubtedly one of Summer's biggest trends, and we're coveting the look more than ever before.


Tribal jewelry is undoubtedly one of Summer's biggest trends, and we're coveting the look more than ever before. The perfect addition to this season's bold frocks and airy silhouettes, these pieces add a bohemian cool and ethnic intrigue to even the most basic ensembles. Take a classic white tee and jeans for an example. When paired with a chunky, mixed-metal necklace, an everyday look suddenly becomes eye catching and on trend. At Suno's Spring '11 presentation, models proved that tribal-influenced accessories, though raw and industrial, can look totally modern. For daytime, stick to a stack of wooden bangles or tough collar necklace. Come nightfall, up the ante with an oversized cocktail ring or dramatic, shoulder-sweeping earrings.

Victoria Beckham Launches Girlier, More Affordable Dress Line!

If owning a piece from Victoria Beckham's pricey namesake line didn't make it in your monthly shopping allowance, get ready to rejoice.
Victoria Beckham Launches Dress Line

If owning a piece from Victoria Beckham's pricey namesake line didn't make it in your monthly shopping allowance, get ready to rejoice. Beckham just announced she will be launching a more girly and affordable dress line, called Victoria by Victoria Beckham set to launch in Spring 2012. Inspired by quirky cartoon character Emily the Strange, Beckham went forth and created loose, '60s silhouettes — complete with scallops and pleats — dipped in bright hues. Much more feminine details than her minimal collection line, and it will also be lower priced with prices set to be in the $550-$900 range. While it's still an investment, we like that Victoria is expanding her line and looking at lower price points! Click the slideshow to see dresses from the line.

It may be the most understated piece in your closet, and certainly not the most exciting. However, the white tee is invaluable when you need a dose of clean, casual simplicity. You may bemoan the fact that the tee seems so boring, but we're about to show you why your tee deserves a big hug (or a more prominent place in the Summer wardrobe rotation). First of all, you should have a long-sleeved tee, a short sleeve, a crew neck, and a scoop neck. Beyond that, you could get really fancy and get a classic cotton tee, a sheer tee, a slub tee . . . but let's just focus on what you have. Click our slideshow as we highlight the fresh ways the white tee is being used on fashion runways, by celebrities, and fashion insiders alike.

Look of the Day: Well-Suited

A crisp white skirt suit is a fantastic Summer alternative to the pants version, and thanks to Fab reader thestylesafari!

A crisp white skirt suit is a fantastic Summer alternative to the pants version, and thanks to Fab reader thestylesafari, here's how to get the look. Try a full skirt and long white jacket — hers are Zara — and keep it coolly monotone with a beige and white striped tank. For color, she added a yellow clutch, and made the outfit nighttime-worthy by adding sexy black sandals.


Congrats to thestylesafari!
