Fab Read: Prada
Prada is jumping on the designer-book bandwagon. The Italian house has unveiled a 706-page book, titled Prada, that highlights the house's 30 years of fashion, art, and more. "For Prada, fashion, luxury and style go beyond producing an infinity of clothes and shoes, so the book wants to illustrate the various aspects through which Prada expresses itself," said Patrizio Bertelli, chief executive officer of Prada Group.
Look of the Day: Pretty Paisley Prints
Mkoesnadi is jungle chic in pretty paisley prints. She's mastered the casual vibe of a blazer thrown over a femme little dress. And she's got mad styling skills — she cinches the whole thing with a belt and doesn't skimp on stellar accessories, from her gladiators to her luxe tote.
Trend Alert: Modern Navy
I've never been a huge fan of navy, but Ciara has me thinking twice. At the Originals by Originals Adidas launch in LA, the singer donned a modern navy cutout dress that exudes sleek style. Sizzle.
2010 Spring Milan Fashion Week: Prada
For Spring '10, Miuccia Prada concocted a collection inspired by sea and surf. However, it wasn't your typical beach-inspired line. “Beach and antiquity — high and low — it is all the same,” said Miuccia Prada.
Trend Alert: Drawstring Bags
There are two rules I abide by when shopping: function and fashion. That's why I'm so smitten with the resurgence of drawstring bags. This sporty, luxe attitude goes perfectly with today's casual cool style and even translates well when paired with tailored ensembles.
Fall Glimpse: Hot Toes
No Fall glimpse would be complete without a preview of some of the most captivating shoes to trot down the runways. The boot of the season is no doubt the over-the-knee, while wicked platforms and cutesie pumps rule, too. Heels got a lot of play — curved, pin straight, studded, wooden.
Back to Cool: Cruel Intentions
School is almost in session — cue bells — and my assignment is to help you look smashing on your first day and beyond. First up for inspiration, the naughty naughty Cruel Intentions. This 1999 flick will forever be etched in my memory because of its scandals, girl-on-girl action, and almost-incestuous love scenes.
Celeb Style: Rachel Weisz
Rachel Weisz made her way through a tough London crowd wearing a roar-worthy animal-print minidress. Phew! She rocked the boyfriend blazer trend, but notice how hers is as long as her dress.
Trend Alert: Summer Booties
I understand wearing boots in the Summer is a geographical thing. For example, a gal in Washington DC (hot, sticky) may balk at the thought, while a chick in San Francisco (foggy, breezy) may bask in it. But I must aver the cuteness of Summer booties.
Fab Ad: Prada, Fall '09
When it comes to ads, we've almost seen it all: beaches, desert sand, wheat fields, sidewalks — you get the picture. But Miuccia Prada has managed to give us something we haven't yet seen for Prada's Fall campaign: models sitting in a puddle of oil. Juxtapositions are common in fashion and this is one of the slickest yet.
