Jill Stuart is pretty messy. No really, her Spring collection was pretty, and messy. Stuart was inspired by the ballet La Bayadère, which she saw last Summer. And now I'm inspired to layer sheers and whisper light jerseys, wrap random pieces of fabric around my torso, and even wear a head scarf. Stuart's angelic ballet dancers graced the runway in cloudy tones of gray, pink, peach, and ivory — added black supplied some seriousness. The accessories were Fab: musical, long, mixed-media necklaces, net-like socks, caged sandals, and light and leathery handbags. I was even attracted to the heather gray leggings and silk boxer shorts; must be the dancer in me wanting to cut a rug.
The life of the single gal can be lonely. But there are no tears here. Single gal, meet single sleeve. Dramatic, sexy, and ready to party. Just look to Jada (see left) for inspiration. But I'm confused. You loved Alexis Bledel's Mischen one sleeve LBD, but not Maria Sharapova's Lanvin. What gives? Single sleeves for everybody!

Style Bandit is looking like a bird straight out of London. She's rockin' tartan plaid like a fashion pro. Smart lady for tempering the loud print with a black blazer and studded booties. Bold yet simple. Me likey.
Rihanna bundled up for her appearance on The Late Show and looked perfectly chic while waving to her New York fans. She kept things simple in all black but mixed patterns and textures to create a unique look.
