Among the celebrities who partied in Miami Beach on New Years was Chloe Sevigny. You better believe the risk-taking actress went all out for the occasion. She dressed up head to toe in a look from Louis Vuitton's Spring '09 collection. That included a sheer burgundy blouse, an orange mini skirt with sequins, animal print bangles, an oversized clutch, and strappy platform sandals. If anyone can pull off this runway look it's someone fearless like Chloe. Do you agree?
The next time you and your girls are gathered, add fashion to the mix by bringing along this Fashion Game book: Fashion History of the 20th Century ($35) by Florence Muller. It's a fun little book filled with questions and answers, quizzes, and matching games. Test your, and your friends' knowledge on designers like Marc Jacobs and Zac Posen, and clothing from jeans to heels. If you have friends that think they know more about fashion than you, this is the perfect way to prove them wrong. Or right. Bring it on.
Not only is this Urban Renewal Taffeta Bow Bag ($38) adorable, it's made out of old prom dresses. So cool how Urban Outfitters used recycled taffeta scraps to make it. Way to reuse and recycle! It's perfect for a casual day of shopping, lunching, or running errands. At night, tuck the straps into the bag and you have yourself a clutch.
2009. Wow — this decade is almost over! Crazy. I usually spend January detoxing, catching up on all the award nominated films, and prepping for Fashion Week in February. It's a hard month to get motivated, for sure. Alas, you always want to start the year off right. While I'm also on a shopping freeze, still recovering from the holidays, here are some items that have me fantasizing. A healthy mix of Resort and Winter goodies. Oh, Happy New Year!
Fashion Quiz of 2008 Whilst we get use to being in 2009, I thought I'd test how well you followed the world of fashion in 2008. We brought you the most up to date news throughout the year and brought you coverage of London fashion week for Autumn 2008 and Spring 2009
I've been wanting a fringe piece in my closet to reflect my love of the '20s. I figure a fringe mini skirt, like this Nanette Lepore Carwash Fringe Mini Skirt ($110, originally $220) is good because I can modernize it with cool tees. I know it's on sale, but I don't want to pay over a hundred dollars for it. Good thing I don't have to.
Rachel Zoe was photographed walking down Robertson, Starbucks in hand, looking ready for some serious shopping. She looked chic in her round sunglasses and Chanel bag, which she wore with of-the-moment thigh-high boots, a denim Current/Elliott biker jacket, and printed scarf.
