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 Read more

Quiksilver Gingham Shirt Dress

We're in the midst of the Summer-to-Fall transition. To make it easier, I'd suggest a dress just like this Quiksilver Lost and Found Dress ($39, originally $78). The sweet gingham print isn't Summer-exclusive — in fact, I almost prefer the look with socks or tights and a Fab pair of your favorite booties or clogs. It's perfect transitional dressing, perfectly priced for the Read more

Theory Belted Shirt Dress

When this Theory Light Indigo Belted Shirt Dress ($275) first caught my eye, I was fantasizing about how to mix up the classic piece with sandals, boots, and statement belt. Clearly, I was too busy with my fantasy to realize that the pricey tag was about to deter my purchase. I know it's a classic, but I also know I can do better. Get the look for less after the jump.

Fab's a huge advocate of the ever-so-calculated disheveled chic look. While some scoff at the layers and mismatched pieces, we revel in them. We love how Ally Hilfiger created her own messy masterpiece with a striped shirt dress, trench, tights, and platform pumps. Hone in on her striped frock: not only do the vertical lines add length, they also evoke a posh, preppy feel — even when wrinkled. Read more

Look of the Day: Torn and Tousled

Gogosushi has disheveled chic down. Her torn and tousled ensemble consists of a black sweater layered over a nude shirt dress — very loose and casual. Being the fashion expert she is, the stylista accessorized with a red silk scarf and belt for polished contrast. C-ute. Here's what she has on: Shirt dress: Supre Sweater: Bardot Belt: Unknown Scarf: Unknown Flats: Joanne Mercer Congrats to Read more

Whitney Port With New Boyfriend in Front of Diane von Furstenberg Store in New York

We were just obsessing over Whitney's Gucci Hysteria handbag ($1,395) — more on that later — and here she is flaunting it again. Beside her new hottie! Go Whitney. In front of the NYC Diane von Furstenberg store no less. Her black shirt dress is a proven classic but she Whitifies it with a vintage-looking brown belt, black t-strap pompom sandals (I appreciate the lower heel), and mixed Read more

Celebrity Style: Claudia Schiffer

Longtime Model Claudia Schiffer looks classic and chic at the launch for Shortlist Magazine. I like that her shirt dress has lace detailing and a black bow ribbon. She's smart to have kept the accessories to a minimum, as gaudy jewels would have killed the sweet look. She barely has any makeup on, yet she still manages to look so pretty. The woes of being beautiful! CS: Claudia Schiffer Read more

Edun Runway Fall 2012

Bono and wife Ali Hewson's elevated eco-conscious clothing brand showed off a darker mood this season, but not to worry, the presence of Edun's signature exotic prints abounded in pops of silky fuchsia and electric blue combos. Even as the first model took her turn on the runway, the clothes delivered a strong message: the Edun girl, as the program notes, "has taken her punk rock roots on Read more
