Rag & Bone

Leave it to perpetually cool brand Rag & Bone to make a serious entrance across the pond. Not only are the British-bred designers David Neville and Marcus Wainwright a day away from cutting the ribbon on their first European store in London's Chelsea neighborhood, they're also getting ready to launch Rag & Bone's first-ever ad campaign — starring Kate Moss, no less. Dressed in dark leather wares, hot pants, and fishnet stockings, Kate effortlessly embodies both the Rag & Bone boys' English heritage and the no-frill ethos they have meticulously cultivated since the line's inception in 2002. Wainwright added, "It was just them on a derelict London street — Kate with minimal makeup and Craig [McDean, the photographer] with a handheld camera and natural light." While tomorrow's UK store opening is certainly higher up on the current celebration docket, the brand's long-awaited campaign is set to appear in the September issues of Vogue, Vanity Fair, The Paris Review, and more. Are you excited to see Rag & Bone's Fall ads?

For her appearance on Good Morning America in NYC, Olivia Wilde opted to get in on Hollywood's latest obsession with soft-pink blazers. The actress wore this Rag & Bone blush-colored tuxedo blazer ($535) with black pants, a dark-gray tee, and matching gray suede pumps. She then accessorized her neck with a double-strand silver necklace. What we love about Olivia's blazer, and all the soft-pink blazers out there, is that it's light enough for Summer and adds a sweet touch to even the toughest ensemble. You can top everything from day dresses and evening looks to denim cutoffs and leather pants. Get in on the soft-pink blazer trend by getting Olivia's exact Rag & Bone blazer now!

If you're just pulling your white jeans out of hiding, you may want to look to Katie Holmes to style them up right. Not that we don't think white denim has a place year-round, but nothing feels quite so seasonally chic as a pair of crisp white skinnies just the way Katie Holmes is wearing them out and about in LA. Channeling classic Americana, Katie added a bold striped Madewell tee and finished with a pair of Rag & Bone ankle boots in the perfect Spring taupe. It's an everyday style with a cool-girl feel thanks to sharp color contrast and on-trend accoutrements, like her oversize shades and a colorblocked bag at her side. Feeling inspired?
