Fall Fashion

Hue Knew? Shades of Blue and Green Work Magic Together

Turquoise, mint green, blue-green — these are the hues we're excited about right now.

Turquoise, mint green, blue-green — these are the hues we're excited about right now. Whether it's a monochromatic look a la Rihanna in Antonio Berardi, or a tonal look a la Diane von Furstenburg Fall 2011 runway, it's high impact and we love boldness of it for Fall. To pull it off after Labor Day, try mixing it with neutrals: these hues look fabulous with shades of gray, camel, or rust. Avoid pairing it with lighter colors like cream or pale yellow as it will feel too unseasonal for Fall dressing.

Claudia Schiffer

Happy Birthday, Claudia Schiffer!

In the late '80s and for most of the '90s, Claudia Schiffer was that impossibly beautiful, curvy blonde with an uncanny likeness to Brigitte Bardot, gracing many a Guess ad campaign and magazine covers including Vogue, Elle, and even Playboy.

In the late '80s and for most of the '90s, Claudia Schiffer was that impossibly beautiful, curvy blonde with an uncanny likeness to Brigitte Bardot, gracing many a Guess ad campaign and magazine covers including Vogue, Elle, and even Playboy. Countless covers, editorials, and ad campaigns later, Claudia Schiffer is still impossibly beautiful, if more lithe than ever. On the red carpet in Cannes this Summer, Claudia dropped our jaws in a sexy lace gown; in a recent editorial for Vogue Deutsch, she looks like a playful, sexy 20-something. We're fascinated by Claudia's evolution, and in honor of her 41st birthday today, we're taking a look back at some of her most memorable photos. Click through to see each one.

Tory Burch Fall 2011

Fall is inspired by the play of American sportswear and English country dressing — outdoorsy, but feminine. Silhouettes are longer all around, with exaggerated palazzo pants, trousers that graze the floor, full skirts and longer coats. It’s all about mixing textures- deconstructed tweeds with plaid, Fair Isle with shearling, velvet with chiffon, lace and sequins. Accessories include patterned handbags and feminine suede satchels with stacked heel boots and mid-heel loafers.

Grown-Up Back-to-School Blazers

OnSugar blogger fashion fortuneteller is helping us shop the best grown-up blazers for back to school: I'm so nervous about going back to school.

OnSugar blogger fashion fortuneteller is helping us shop the best grown-up blazers for back to school:

I'm so nervous about going back to school. I know I shouldn't be. I mean I'm going for my Masters, it's not like I'm new to sitting in a classroom, managing work load, and pulling all-nighters! But something, just has my stomach full of butterflies. So naturally, what do I do when I'm feeling nervous or unsure about something, need time to think things through, or am simply having a bad day... I make outfits! I dip into my closet and just start creating new looks. It's my CALM. Lately, I've been trying to think about how I could use the tons of blazers I have in creative ways. I work a corporate 9-5 that requires suits, therefore I have blazers galore. Suits are so not my thing — just seems too structured. Can you think of any creative ways to use blazers, like any of the ones I selected to feature today?
