After spying high-waisted shorts on the runway — see Tibi, far left, and Adam's Spring 2011 collection, and then in some of our favorite editorials including a lovely Glamour cover with Freida Pinto, we got the hint — these shorts-up-to-here are too cute to pass up. For starters, we love that a higher waist means we can get away with wearing our cropped knits and tees, while showing off our Read more

When we first heard that crop tops (and more specifically, bralets) were going to be big for 2012, we had our reservations — it seemed like a look best suited for outdoor music festivals and costume parties — but after seeing the midriff-baring look on the runways at Dolce & Gabbana, Nina Ricci, Prada, and others, we inevitably changed our tune, and are officially smitten with the idea Read more

Like Ruby Aldridge in MiH's Spring campaign, we want a pair of shorts that make our legs look just as impossibly long. We may not have supermodel genes on our side, but we're embracing the same high-waist silhouette to flaunt what we've got. If you fear the high waist, know this: the style cinches you right in at the smallest point on your waist and gives the illusion of mile-long stems. Of Read more

One look at Claudia Schiffer in these iconic Guess ad campaigns and we immediately get transported back to the late '80s and early '90s. Remember the days when we used to wear high-waisted jeans with lace tops? Well, those days might be coming back, thanks to Guess's 30th anniversary campaign featuring the supermodel once again. Schiffer looks like she hasn't aged a day, replicating her old Guess Read more

Peter Copping makes channeling the seductive edge of Parisian chic nearly effortless with Nina Ricci's Fall 2012. Set off in rich berry hues and a decidedly darker palette, Ricci is still all woman, only sexier. Where we're given ladylike shapes — cinched waists and full skirts, Copping finishes in sultry sheer, luxe fur, and leg-baring slits or cutout necklines. Tweedy fabrics in the sexiest Read more

AnnaLynne McCord packed her beach bag and found a quiet spot of sand along the shore in Santa Monica yesterday. The 90210 actress took a break from filming and relaxed under the sun on a warm Winter day. AnnaLynne wore a one-piece on the set recently, but for her latest outing, she chose a floral top and high-waisted navy bottoms. Later in the day, AnnaLynne slipped into a cocktail dress to join Read more

Tonight's McQ by Alexander McQueen lineup was a breathtaking showcase of stylized beauty and fashion fantasy. Considering this was the diffusion line's first-ever showing during London Fashion Week, we'd say the bar has been set pretty high. Immersed in dark tones, rich fabrics, and even richer embellishments (think velvet embroidered onto sheer lace), each nipped-waist dress marched out onto the Read more

Phillip Lim showed a bookish, workwear-inspired cool for Fall '12 — some of the models even carried briefcase-style clutches down the runway. The designer offered up tapered trousers, fitted blazers, and his signature slouchy yet structured knits, all playing into a pretty, polished glamour that's perfect for the office. The collection was a refreshing mix of youthfulness (bright pops of Read more

Victoria Beckham's Fall collection can easily be described in one word: strong. The designer offered up her usual sleek, body-conscious dresses, but this time with a decidedly utilitarian touch. The military-chic collection was sexy, without being aggressively so, and was punctuated by belted waists, elbow-length sleeves, and high, collared necklines. Her signature slim-fitting vibe was still Read more

If there were any Oscar nominees in the house tonight, they're likely putting in their requests for dresses as we speak. Monique Lhuillier's Fall collection was filled with the kind of full-on dramatic glamour the designer's become known for — the kind that would light up any red carpet. This season, Lhuillier hones in on her craft with a dark, sexy tilt. Cutouts, black and red lace, and edgier Read more
