Rebecca Gayheart and her hot hubby Eric Dane strolled NYC in style over the weekend. Both were Fall ready in slick outerwear. Rebecca kept cozy in a navy blue trench coat and a black scarf. Notice how the shiny gold buttons instantly jazz up the ensemble. To further the chic factor, the actress wore gorgeous Pucci shades, gold hoops, tan flats, and a tan bag — perfection!

Celebrity Style: Miranda Kerr

There are two reasons I'm envious of Australian model Miranda Kerr.

There are two reasons I'm envious of Australian model Miranda Kerr. First, she's dating and vacationing with Orlando Bloom and second, she has legs the length of the Eiffel Tower! Now that I got that off my chest, we can move on to her cool, casual style. On her aforementioned romantic getaway, Miranda exuded an easy-going vibe that all vacation-goers should master. She threw on a white V-neck tee, black high-waisted shorts, and some wedge espadrilles. No fuss, no fluff — just the way a vacation ought to be.

Ksubi Shades And A NY Counterfeit Raid

Around the same time those Ksubi shades sold out everywhere, we saw them in abundance on Canal Street.

Around the same time those Ksubi shades sold out everywhere, we saw them in abundance on Canal Street. Is a street vendor on Canal Street the epitome of a downtown trendsetter? Kind of, but by default. Most likely those shades were mass produced at the same time, perhaps even in the same factory, as those coveted fifty odd pairs of original Ksubi shades.

So, whatchu gonna do? Well, for starters you don't buy anything you suspect is a fake (and if you buy those horrible Steve Madden knock-offs, well, that's your own problem). You can also clap your hands to the fact that eight people, and 1,113 boxes of counterfeit goods, were seized yesterday in Queens. That's two forty-foot trailer trucks worth of Lacoste, Izod, and Tommy Hilfiger bags. The raid was a result of case that started back in 2000, which is, according to Peter J. Smith the Immigration and Customs Enforcement special agent in charge of New York City (by the way, doesn't that sound like the. coolest. job. ever.?) eight years of, "taking a little piece of information and building on it". He said of the work involved in capturing these importers, "You do your surveillances, you make your purchases, you get your seizures at the border, you run money through their bank accounts to see where it comes back to.". All we can say is, happy Friday fashionistas.

These Ksubi Write Sunglasses demonstrate the illustrious power of limited edition accessories.

These Ksubi Write Sunglasses demonstrate the illustrious power of limited edition accessories. With only 50 pairs made worldwide (in New York they went to OAK, of course) in the gunmetal and white versions, if you don't have them already, you probably never will. Never fear, that's what ripoffs are for, and they don't have to be from the street vendor (funnily enough we saw a vendor selling a rip off yesterday on Broadway, making us wonder if street vendors might be just as skilled at trend forecasting as the agencies). Maison Martin Margiela turned out an even pricier version of these wrap around glasses for Spring 08. Also, hey, there's always those grandpa versions from the drug store.

As we've learned recently, cult favorite Ksubi makes some pretty far out there pieces. Case in point? This Ksubi Pleated Bubble Skirt ($317) — the shape is cute, but the material reminds me of a garbage bag. What about you?

Like Vegemite, these Ksubi High-Waisted Checkerboard Skinny Jeans ($325), might take an acquired taste.

Coveted Australian line, Ksubi, has joined forces with style icon Jeremy Scott in creating the highly anticipated Jeremy Loves Ksubi collection. The checkerboard print is a definite reflection of Jeremy's eccentric and far-out sense of style. These checkerboard jeans are no exception — do you think checkers should stay on the board and not our legs?
