Look of the Day: Cable Knit Cutie

I'm smitten with gogosushi's cozy outfit.

I'm smitten with gogosushi's cozy outfit. For maximum warmth, the cable knit cutie layered her tweed shorts and chic DIY Cavour print tee with tights and a nubby sweater. Notice how she's on to the over the knee boots trend. I love it all, however, the prize goes to her buttery soft vintage Yves Saint Laurent satchel bag — swoon.

Here's what she has on:

Cardigan: Sportsgirl
Tee: DIY
Tweed Shorts: Dotti
Boots: Midas
Satchel: Yves Saint Laurent
Rings: Sportsgirl and Etsy
Nail Polish: OPI Cancun Fiesta

Congrats to gogosushi!

Celebrity Style: Katy Perry

Katy Perry showed off her demure side in NYC wearing a preppy tweed coat, black studded bowed flats, and a bejeweled headband.

Katy Perry showed off her demure side in NYC wearing a preppy tweed coat, black studded bowed flats, and a bejeweled headband. It's an unexpected look compared to her usual off-kilter ensembles, and we like it. However, the singer did manage to sneak a whimsical touch into her Upper East side outfit with a cute teddy bear bag — kitschy bag alert! Simply adorable.

Trend Alert: Tweeds

Old school fabric tweed is an ideal material for winter - it is moisture resistant, very durable, and very cute.

Old school fabric tweed is an ideal material for winter - it is moisture resistant, very durable, and very cute. Tweed automatically adds grace and sophistication, and is a fun fabric to wear in a more corporate work environment. These days, tweed is spun in different colors and patterns so it is no longer a drab, rugged Scottish man's material. And, who can forget the woman who glamorized this fabric by donning it with pearls and gardenia flowers, Coco Chanel?! Here is my designer and non-designer tweed picks:

Echo Tweed Shrug, on sale for $59.99 (originally $98).


Chanel White Tweed Cap Pearl Barbell Slingbacks, $536.


Theory Raymond Tweed Mini Skirt, $200.
