The Piece: Rodarte for Opening Ceremony Lace Blazer

The Investment: $725

Why We Covet: It's Rodarte. The Mulleavy sisters have become one of fashion's most highly respected designer duos, and their collections are the hard-to-acquire stuff of fantasy. Their collaboration with Opening Ceremony has all their romance and frills in functional silhouettes at a slightly lower price point, making it extremely covetable. Case in point: this incredibly detailed, ultra gorgeous floral guipire lace jacket that will be perfect for the soft dreaminess of Spring. It can look chic over a sleek silk column dress, flirty over a tank and jeans, or romantic with a flowy dress. It's got slight bell sleeves and a gently curved collar. It's something new that could be vintage, and we guarantee you could bring this out every season and get a million compliments.

Happy Birthday, Rihanna!

Enter into the world of Rihanna.
Rihanna Birthday

Enter into the world of Rihanna. Since 2005, the Barbadian beauty caught my attention with her catchy songs, and even more so, her megawatt style. When Rihanna first hit the scene, she stayed within the sexy singer realm via colorful body-con frocks and separates. As the years went along, she took a turn towards high fashion. After attending numerous runway shows, Rihanna developed an edgier sense of dressing — who can forget those star shaped pasties — and started donning clothes and accessories from the likes of Chanel, Alexander Wang, and Rodarte, to name a few. Despite The songstress continues to impress me with her daring in-your-face ensembles and experimental hairdos. Let's take a look at Rihanna's astounding fashion metamorphosis as we wish her a very Fab 23rd birthday!

2011 Fall New York Fashion Week: Rodarte

For Fall, Kate and Laura Mulleavy fuse the world of the urban and the prairie innocent.
Fall 2011 New York Fashion Week: Rodarte 2011-02-15 14:52:22

For Fall, Kate and Laura Mulleavy fuse the world of the urban and the prairie innocent. It's equal parts quirky and confident and spills out with bold details, like geometric print and dramatic architectural necklines. Then it counters with softer, draped full-length dresses and a lighter, neutral palette. The cut and finish to jumpsuits, pants, tops, and double-collared dresses are sharp and edgy, modern, but still feminine. We'd picture these pieces going to a gallery opening, finding their way in the urban world with a country aesthetic and artistic flair.

  • Trends: Double collars, architectural necklines, geometric print, sheer layering, calf-length skirts.
  • Colors: Light blues, creamy neutrals, navy, and bold print.
  • Key Looks: A red metallic calf-length skirt and fitted jacket on Lindsey Wixson; a sculptural polka-dot print jumpsuit.
  • Accessories: Black platform boots, some echoing the collection's bold prints.
  • Who Would Wear It: The artsy femme, with equal parts quirk and sophistication.
