Timeless Sibling Themes For Halloween: Roaring 20s
These fabulous flapper costumes will have your kiddos doing the Charleston! Any girl who likes to glam up will go ga ga over the chance to pin curl her hair and wear the pearls, feathers and fringe that were the signature sassy style during the very social and artistic period of American history. Get your lil guy in on the roaring 20s garb by making him a bootleg bartender.
Sneak Peek! Rachel Pally Fall/Holiday '08 Collection
Rachel Pally's Fall/Holiday collection is right up my alley with the rich colors and interesting but subdued prints — many in her trademark jersey fabric. This collection is a tad more dressed up than usual and '20s-inspired. Standout pieces include a grey jersey jumpsuit, berry-colored dresses, tight mini skirts, and form-fitting, scoop neck tops.
Trend Alert: Fabulous Fringe
By no means am I saying George's new lady Sarah Larson is a trendsetter, but I adore her Giorgio Armani fringe LBD. It has definite flapper appeal without being overly costumey. But wait, there is another side of the fabulous fringe coin.
Fabworthy: Shop By Your Favorite Decade
Saks Fifth Avenue is now letting you live vicariously through your favorite style icons of decades past. If like me, you wish you experienced the roaring '20s, let's stock up on fun flapper items, much like The Great Gatsby characters. Prefer to dress like Audrey Hepburn?
Fabworthy: Mod Girl Mini Mirrors
Runway shows and magazines are a great source for outfit inspiration, but every now and again, you find ideas from something unexpected. Recently I've been admiring The Great Gatsby style, so these Mod Girl Mini Mirrors ($7) immediately spoke to me. They are the perfect way to show the world my adoration for this trend.
Grammy Awards: Miley Cyrus
It would be nice if we could actually see the Celine dress Miley Cyrus is wearing tonight. Her extensions are so long, they practically cover the entire top half of the dress. From what I can tell, it's rather '20s party girl.
eBay Find of the Week
I have a Great Gatsby-esque cloche hat that I've been wearing all Winter. If you don't have one in your closet yet, try one out, like this Bloomingdales Wool Cloche Hat. It's similar to the one Diane Kruger wore recently at a New Year's party.
Found! Whitney Port's Beaded Dress
The flapper-style dress The Hills Whitney Port wore while frolicking the streets of Hollywood with her girlfriends looked very familiar when I first saw it. No wonder; it's Topshop's Heavy Beaded Dress ($79, originally $257). This is not just any old dress though.
Trend Alert: The Roaring '20s
Queen of the red carpet, Diane Kruger, continues to inspire. Of all the New Year's parties that went down, this looks like the most Fab one. Soho Grand's "Great Gatsby" was the place to be — beads, bubbly and babes for everyone!
