| 1 Comment

The stars have taken to the streets with the newest "It" item in night time dressing: The Shimmery Blazer. With a bevy of looks to create with this outerwear rock star, the trend is showing up everywhere from red carpet events to museum openings.

Kerry Washington wears her Narcisco Rodriquez lurex blazer over a print sheath to make her look pop, while Emma Roberts and Lauren Conrad keep their looks muted in solid colors using their sequin blazers as a statement piece.

However you decide to wear it, this is one Fall essential that will add new life to old pieces in your closet. We're currently loving Bebe's All Over Sequin Blazer

Leopard print has been popping up all over Hollywood. Lately we've seen it show up on the red carpet. Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton show off their curves in technicolor leopard print dresses, while Padma Lakshmi chooses to go the more demure route with a solid dress and leopard print stilettos. The look is fabulously fun!

Trendspotting: Matte Lips

Kristen Bell wearing matte lipstick

Gone are the days of glossy lips. From New York Fashion Week to the red carpet we've seen the emergence of the matte lip. Although the trend has been done in both nudes and browns, we love the peach and pink colors seen on Kristen Bell and Charlize Theron.

Pretty your pucker without emptying your pocketbook with the 10 shades of Maniac Mat Long-Wearing Matte Lipstick just $12 at Sephora.

Trendspotting: Celebs Sport Infinity Scarves On The Go

| No Comments
Infinity scarf: (noun) - A really, really long scarf that is wrapped several times around your neck and is essential for achieving a sophisticated, laid-back look. See Eva Mendes, Kelly Ripa and Maggie Gyllenhaal.

Having an outfit like this in your closet is perfect for traveling, shopping or days when you're just too cold or too tired to care about what you put on. Throw on neutral layers and a large pair of shades and you're good to go.

LayersEvaKellyMaggie1.jpgThe key to achieving this look is to use neutral colors to build your layers. Gray, black and nude is a sophisticated palette that works well on top of simple basics like dark-rinse denim and white T-shirts. The key is to have many elements to your outfit that are all working together and not have one piece that stands out among all the rest.

What Was Jessica Simpson Thinking?

Jesspantssuit.jpg

A little late on the trend uptake, aren't we Jess?

Jessica Simpson attended the 8th annual Operation Smile Gala in Beverly Hills, CA last week wearing...a jumpsuit.

Out of all the jumpsuits we've seen lately (click here to see eight jumpsuit-loving celebs), this has to be the most dated, unflattering and unfashionable one of the bunch. Sorry.

We like the clutch!

Check Out Sienna Miller's Favorite Shoes...And Handbag

Siennaoxfords3.jpgSienna Miller rocked these white men's oxfords all summer long. How she managed to keep them clean we'll never know. Looks like she also got a lot of good use out of her merlot-colored satchel. The middle look is still our fave, but for those of us who don't have legs that look exactly like Sienna's, it's nice to know that the oxfords look equally cute with baggy boyfriend jeans (photo on left)!

As we mentioned earlier this week, we were pretty unimpressed with the fashion at this year's VMAs. However, there were a couple of red carpet success stories and popular trends we noticed. Oddly enough, they were all worn by girls from The Hills...and Katy Perry.
 
Nothing groundbreaking here, but Kristin Cavallari, Katy, Lauren Conrad and Lo Bosworth all looked very nice and right on trend. We've found similar looks from Shop She Boutique, check it out.

Celebs Like Freida Pinto and Emma Watson Love Christopher Kane

| No Comments
christopherkane.jpgFreida Pinto rocked a tiered black Christopher Kane dress at the GQ Men of the Year Awards in London the other night, which reminded us of another tiered Christopher Kane creation we saw lately that we also loved...on Emma Watson.

His tiered dresses are ultra feminine and VERY flattering. We think he's definitely a designer to watch!
