    We're Lusting Over Intermix's Fall Lookbook

    Intermix's newly released Fall lookbook left collective sighs in the office today.
    Intermix Fall Lookbook 2011

    Intermix's newly released Fall lookbook left collective sighs in the office today. Shot against an ocean backdrop, the retailer styled up enviable autumnal looks from brands such as Rag & Bone, Helmut Lang, Proenza Schouler, and Mulberry. Before you flip through the slideshow to see more amazing outfits, check out these three quick styling tips we culled from the lookbook:

    • Layer a fur vest over a cableknit sweater for a directional, dimensional look.
    • Invest in red; make a statement and wear this hue head to toe in darker monochromatic hues.
    • Add textures to your Fall look via tweed coats, plaid jackets, and graphic knit cardigans.

    Check out the rest from Intermix now.

    Next Up for Rachel Zoe — A Jewelry Collection, and The Rachel Zoe Project Is Back in July

    >> Rachel Zoe has "no idea" what annual sales might be for her new eponymous collection, which hits a long list of stores in July: Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdale’s, Intermix, Selfridges, Kirna Zabete, Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman, and Shopbop.com.

    >> Rachel Zoe has "no idea" what annual sales might be for her new eponymous collection, which hits a long list of stores in July: Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdale’s, Intermix, Selfridges, Kirna Zabete, Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman, and Shopbop.com. But she says she went numb when she heard who had bought the line: “It was this dream that I never thought would be reality because I was petrified — I was. I feel so complete now becoming a designer and having my son. I’m that happiest that I’ve ever been in my life.”

    Neiman Marcus, for one, is launching Zoe's sportswear, handbags, and shoes at all 41 of its doors, plus online and at Bergdorf Goodman; "The rollout across the entire Neiman Marcus Group is a rare endorsement of a fledgling brand," WWD notes. Why the decision? "She is a real talent,” Ken Downing, SVP and fashion director of Neiman Marcus, notes of Zoe. “She understands the customer and she’s brought an effortless chic to the collection. The clothes are going to appeal to women of many ages. And, she’s got an amazing name.”

    Next up for Zoe? The fourth season of The Rachel Zoe Project, which will begin airing on Bravo in July; and jewelry for Fall 2012. “I wish it were for spring,” Zoe says. “I am dying to do jewelry. I’m gagging.”

    Rachel Zoe on Her Collection Being Inspired by That Vintage Dress; Plus, See the Full Collection Lookbook

    >> Rachel Zoe is a little ahead of the fashion schedule in a lot of ways — as everyone is just gearing up to premiere their Fall 2011 collections, she's already debuted her signature collection for Fall, sold it to Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdale's, Nordstrom, and Intermix, finished her Resort 2012 collection, and started on Spring 2012. Some of the exigency could be blamed on her impending baby boy, due in March, who is also preventing her from traveling to Fashion Week this season.

    One of the bestsellers for Zoe's Fall 2011 collection, Style.com reports, is a black batwing top with columns of gold sequins (left) — see the full collection for the first time in the gallery. And as for the collection's infamous dress that looks strikingly similar to a vintage frock Zoe styled years back, the designer-cum-stylist says, "I've been subconsciously building this collection in my mind for a long time. There are a million vintage pieces that have inspired me, and every other designer in the world."

    But don't expect to see Zoe dress Anne Hathaway in her own collection for the Oscars — Zoe is said to be charging Hathaway an "astronomical" fee for the occasion, and with such a fee comes a certain caliber of dress. "If you're gonna use couture," she tells Style.com, "it should be at the Academy Awards."

    Look of the Day: Blush Tulip

    Whoever thought monochrome was boring obviously hadn't seen how ckim8120 can mix it up.

    Whoever thought monochrome was boring obviously hadn't seen how ckim8120 can mix it up. This blush tulip may all be the same shade, but it boasts chic pieces. She rolled her pleated shorts to loosen it up, but it still feels put together and just a little sassy. One-of-a-kind pieces outfitted perfectly.

    Here's what she has on:

    Blouse: Vintage
    Shorts: Intermix

    Congrats to ckim8120!
