Best of 2010: Favorite Mass Retailer

Melody Nazarian — Mon, 13 Dec 2010 06:00:04 PST

Best of 2010 polls are so much fun. I don't want them to end! But before we can get to the biggest ones - Red Carpet Queen and Designer of the Year - we have to square away the battle of the mass retailers. These five giants ruled this year. Forever 21 supplied trendy cheap goodies, Zara mimicked the runways like no other, H&M delivered cool pieces plus Lanvin For H&M, Target continued its popular designer collaborations, and Charlotte Russe got a kick thanks to Gossip Girl's Eric Daman's preppy chic collaboration. I'm sure you shopped all five in 2010, but which mass retailer stole your heart, er wallet?

Glee cutie Jayma Mays took a page right out of J.Crew's styling book - piecing together an outfit with a preppy-cool party feel. A tuxedo-style chambray button-down ($88) juxtaposes perfectly against a shimmery, sequined skirt ($33), while a pair of metallic silver Rene Caovilla heels are a flirty finish.

Trend Alert: Short Leash

Hannah Weil — Thu, 21 Oct 2010 09:00:05 PDT

Chain-strap bags are ladylike and lovely, of course. But, should you tire of the shoulder-strap, slinging the bag messenger style as Diane Kruger does tones down the posh for a more casual, street-ready style. It's a short leash look that makes a fashionable juxtaposition between your chic little accessories and your 'laxed style. It really brings your purse front and center. And then the only other thing you need to channel the trend is to change up your purse-posture.

Behind the Seams: Eric Daman For Charlotte Russe Launch Party!

Melody Nazarian — Wed, 20 Oct 2010 10:30:05 PDT

Gossip Girl stylist Eric Daman's debut collection for Charlotte Russe doesn't drop until Oct. 24, but we got a sneak peek at Bagatelle in NYC last night! Here come all the pretty pretty details: florals, baubles, dim lighting, pink roses, raspberry sherbet champagne, mannequins dressed to the nines, glitter. It was sheer fabulousness. Eric was also there, mingling with friends, looking dapper in a slick dark suit that would make Chuck Bass jealous.

Gossip Girl's Stylist Eric Daman Brings His Preppy Chic to Charlotte Russe

Melody Nazarian — Thu, 14 Oct 2010 11:00:06 PDT

Eric Daman, the stylish force behind all those lust-worthy Gossip Girl looks, is putting his talent to greater use. He already has a book out, called You Know You Want It: Style - Inspiration - Confidence, and now he's expanding his reach via his own clothing collection. Starting Oct. 24, you will be able to score his affordable preppy chic pieces at Charlotterusse.com. "I really feel I know the Charlotte Russe customer so well. And I felt the need to do party dresses because there is such a void out there for cute, fun, not-superexpensive dresses," he said. Fabulous! And perfect timing with the upcoming holidays.

Celeb Style: Whitney Port

FabSugar — Wed, 22 Sep 2010 11:00:05 PDT

We've long been fans of Whitney's California-girl-meets-city style. Stepping out in NYC, she blends the best of both: street-ready leather jacket ($45, originally $59) on top, femme Mike Gonzalez petal skirt on the bottom. A pair of unique metallic-toned booties complete the look and play up the quirky-cool vibe. Click the items above to shop a similar look.

Trend Alert: Utilitarian Shirt Dress

FabSugar — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 10:00:05 PDT

When Olivia Palermo takes a stroll, it's always a stylish one. Aside from staring down her arm candy, Johannes Huebl, we're also digesting the look. This time she stepped out in a utilitarian shirt dress, one we love because of its menswear-gone-girlish vibe. It melds utility, functionality, and casual ease, and pairs best with ladylike footwear to counter the heavy pockets and structure. Try a pair of ballet flats like Olivia for now, then booties and tights later on.
