Trend Alert: All That Glitters
Whether you're 6 years old or 30, the holidays are the perfect time to revel in all that glitters. Given, I don't need an excuse to wear such shimmering objects, but maybe you do. Glitter is more understated compared to its shine sisters — sequins and paillettes — and so perfect right now.
Trend Alert: Do the Pleat
I admit, I was growing quite weary of the current selection of Fall handbags, but my outlook changed when I laid eyes on cool pleated bags. There's something for everyone with styles ranging from tightly stitched clutches to more haphazard pleats. This fresh Diane von Furstenberg Studded Napa Bag ($595) awakened my handbag soul to a level unparalleled.
I Love Your Shopstyle: Geometric
One might see this picture as a scrambled abstract but not Historie Girl. She pulled inspiration from the geometric pattern and created a striking Victorian-inspired ensemble. Her color choices are spot-on and I can't take my eyes off those Dries van Noten canvas and leather sandals.
Fab Flash: Anya Hindmarch is Awarded MBE
British designer Anya Hindmarch was awarded for her contribution to the fashion industry yesterday as she headed to Buckingham Palace to collect her MBE. She was listed in the Queen's New Year honours list along with Hilary Riva.
The Queen was dressed in a white and yellow floral dress as she presented Anya with her medal.
Celebrity Style: Kristen Bell
Cutie Kristen Bell has been making her rounds at New York Fashion Week. She attended the Alice + Olivia presentation in an ensemble that at first seems simple, but upon closer inspection, comes to life. She could have thrown on a dress, like most attendees did, but her look took a little more work.
Celebrity Style: Isla Fisher
Isla Fisher's character in Confessions of a Shopaholic loves color and layering, but the actress took another route at the film's UK premiere. This ensemble stopped me dead in my clicks — it's sexy as hell but doesn't lose its fashiony side. The black-sequin Jasmine Di Milo mini dress shows off Isla's killer gams, while her Jimmy Choo sandals highlight her feet.
Trend Alert: Wintry Caftans
I was thinking Fashion Week wardrobe and had an epiphany; I saw Molly Sims in her silky exotic print caftan, standing beside Anya Hindmarch (hi Anya!), and thought just because it's freezing in NYC doesn't mean I can't bring the Luxotica. It's a pity colorful wintry caftans and tunics are reserved for warm weather. Why not throw one over cozy tights and fresh boots?
Anya Hindmarch Embosses the Name of the Gadget on the Bag
British designer Anya Hindmarch is known for her fabulous handbags, but did you know what a stickler she is for organization?
It's evident she cares about your orderliness as well, because she has made these pretty little leather cases for accessories. Make no mistake, the pouches embossed with "CAMERA" (about $110) and "MY TUNES" (on sale for $73) are for your camera, and MP3 player, respectively.
Fab Flash: Queen Honours Fashion Industry
Happy New Years Eve! Today the Queen announced her Christmas presents to key members of the British empire and yet again she has chosen to honour the fashion industry. It's been a difficult year for London Fashion Week as it fought for it's place in the schedule so fitting that Hilary Riva, chairman of the British Fashion Council, should be honoured with an OBE.
