Trend Alert: Tough It Out

Noria Morales — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 10:39:35 PDT

The women who walked the runway at Balenciaga and Balmain had an attitude that said, "I'll kick your ass if you cross me." We're thinking we might try to channel that level of toughness for Spring, but styled in a slightly more feminine way, like we saw in this L'Officiel Netherlands editorial. The key to wearing it is balancing tougher pieces with more polished elements - think sharp blazers with those distressed jeans. Or, just choose one or two pieces; we don't suggest going head-to-tail punk. Here are our editor picks for tough but completely chic pieces to give your sweet wardrobe a little ass-kicking.

Sundance Style: Demi Moore

Demi Moore's Sundance style is all about bundling up in the chicest way possible. A monochromatic gray palette could be boring, but not when the actress embellishes with textures and layers. Starting with a pair of gray skinny jeans ($65), she adds a cozy open cardigan and finishes with a fabulous, fur-collar jacket. A pair of navy-hued booties add a splash of color, and oversize shades ($79) finish it off. Click the items above to shop a similar style.

Trend Alert: The LSD (Little Silver Dress)

Hannah Weil — Wed, 08 Dec 2010 08:00:04 PST

While the amusing acronym isn't lost on us, neither is the dazzle of the LSD - and since these little silver dresses have been cropping up all over the red carpet on our favorite celebs, we couldn't help but turn our attention to the shine. It doesn't have to be full-blown, and as you can see from Odette Yustman, Carolyn Murphy, and Lily Collins's dress choices, respectively, there's certainly a spectrum of silver shimmer to choose from. Try a subtler effect via a metallic sheath or go all-out in allover sequins à la Lily. Just remember to keep jewels minimal and opt for black or nude pumps to avoid the disco ball effect.

Celeb Style: Cameron Diaz

Cameron Diaz always exudes effortless cool. This time, the actress stepped out in skinny J Brand denim and a silky button-down ($69). It may be simple, but paired with suede high-heel booties ($265, originally $435) and lots of pretty gold jewels, the result is totally chic, without any fuss.

Trend Alert: The Woolly Black Vest

FabSugar — Tue, 30 Nov 2010 07:00:06 PST

When you're looking to add a hint of laid-back luxe to your look, nothing does the trick quite like a faux-fur vest, especially in black. Elle Macpherson and Nicky Hilton were both spotted strolling the streets - in London and LA, respectively - rocking woolly black vests over their layering pieces. They're a cozy, bohemian-chic addition to any casual ensemble. Ready to cozy up? Shop similar black faux fur vests below.

Trend Alert: Modern Mod

Hannah Weil — Fri, 19 Nov 2010 08:00:04 PST

Besides her hot strut, we're eying Victoria Beckham because of her Fab little sheath. It's modern mod at its best - simple silhouette, rounded neckline, and no bells and whistles. It's all about the fit - not too body-conscious, not too billowy - it should have a body-skimming, ladylike fit. For extra flair, go with a retro palette; bold yellows, orange, blue, and the rest of the primaries are perfect. And also look to Mrs. Beckham for the right accoutrements: oversize sunnies and a pair of pretty pumps.

Trend Alert: The Tuxedo Jacket

Hannah Weil — Thu, 11 Nov 2010 07:00:45 PST

First we spied Olivia Wilde with hers casually thrown on over a floor-length gown; then, both Amy Smart and Nikki Reed showed up at the same event sporting theirs with skinny jeans. Now, we're convinced the tuxedo jacket pairs perfectly with nearly all of our evening-out attire - we envision coupling it with our holiday best for the months ahead. But, dressed up or dressed down, it lends a polished juxtaposition to denim or a bit of a masculine edge to counter your party dress frills.

Celeb Style: Whitney Port

Hannah Weil — Mon, 18 Oct 2010 13:30:05 PDT

For her Waikiki vacation, Whitney Port stepped out in laid-back glam. A nude cocktail dress ($110, originally $139) got a fresh, beachy vibe when Whit swapped out heels for a pair of gold sandals ($17), while a black clutch and simple jewels served as elegant but not overly done details.

Celeb Style: Rachel Bilson

Hannah Weil — Tue, 05 Oct 2010 12:00:05 PDT

Rachel Bilson took a front-row seat at Chanel, dressed in head-to-toe chic - with an edge. A ruffle-front All Saints leather jacket plays a cool opposite to her floral sheath dress ($32, originally $64), while a ladylike red Chanel lends the perfect pop of color. Lace-up sandals ($117, originally $172) complete the cool-girl vibe. Click the items above to shop a similar look.

The Look For Less: Stella McCartney Silver Chain Clutch

FabSugar — Thu, 16 Sep 2010 05:00:05 PDT

Have you seen the recently released Stella McCartney Studded Falabella collection yet? This Eco Studded Faux Suede Clutch ($1,195) is part of the fashionable family. I love the chain detail, and the fact that it can go from shoulder bag to clutch in an instant. Though it's not the most expensive sister, it's still not that cheap. So sorry, Stella, we don't want to, but we have to move on . . .

To see the look for less,

I was perusing my ShopStyle sale alerts when my eye caught this Bebe Leather Chain Edge Clutch ($120, originally $249). It looks so similar to Stella's version, no? The chain edges, the brassy color, the foldover flap. Plus, like Stella's, it can turn from shoulder bag to clutch in a jiffy. You like? Get your Stella wannabe now!
