Peruse the lookbook to see luscious red peep-toe booties, pumps decorate with vintage-inspired Read more

With the gaggle of stars showing up to New York fashion week, it was only a matter of time before duplications arose. Sure enough, Vanessa Simmons attended Betsey Johnson's Fall '08 show in the same Abaeté dress in the aqua version. Whose look are you loving the most? Source Who Read more

To my relief: Fall is all about dressing like a woman - no more frilly ruffles and layers inspired by little girls.
