Stylist Tip of the Week: Feeling Warm and Fuzzy Outside
Ah, sweaters, the cornerstone to any decent fall collection, but let's talk specifics.Specifically, Fall 2006 and a few distinct looks that make the season. A wise cashmere or wool investment will take you at least 6,000 miles this year. Ok I'm exaggerating, unless you commute via jet or something fun like that. Anyways, the three C's to keep in mind for this season are as follows, The Collegiate, The Cardigan (oversized), and The Cable Knit. For Collegiate, think 50's letterman jacket (remember when they used to be sweaters? Me neither, but they did.) Smart, sophisticated and in any delicious color you choose, The Collegiate will perk up a fresh dress shirt in no time flat and add a dash of vintage heir to any outfit. The Oversized Cardigan is an essential autumnal/winter item. Slouchy and cool, you can literally steal this look from your brother or significant other. Cinch with a belt of your choosing and Mr. Rogers just got a whole lot cooler. The Cable Knit tends to disappear and reappear throughout fashionhistory but this time its back with a vengeance in the biggest knitting ever seen (yep, bigger than the BIG eighties). Look for obscenely large cable knit motifs in ivory and grey. A subdued color will help keep the large knit looking chic. Choose one or all three, but please layer, layer, layer and absolutely finish off with a belt and stay warm! |

Designer of the Week: Paper Denim & Cloth
Paper Denim & Cloth was founded in 1999 with the obsessive pursuit of the perfect pair of jeans. Always soft, classic and slimming, PaperDenim uses only the finest ring spun cotton from Italy, Japan, and the U.S. Their dedication to the original 5-pocket jean combines with innovative design elements including a 2-piece contour waistband and flat-pressed selvedge side seams. Each pair is individually numbered during the hand-finishing process for a truly one-of-a-kind piece. These flattering details keep their celebrity clientele like Heidi Klum, Claudia Schiffer, and Beyonce Knowles, coming back for more. Their super soft threads have appeared in the pages of Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, W, InStyle and Elle magazine. |

Celebrity Style Blog: Ashley "Free Spirirt" Olsen
One of my best friends has always told me how obsessed she is with the Olsen twins style. I am finally beginning to see what she means. They always look so chic and stylish without looking like they tried at all! Ashley Olsen is seen here on September 5th getting takeout from a restaurant in Brentwood. Dressed in a casual yet funky outfit consisting of black gladiator sandals, a black vest, a gray slouchy shirt, and denim cutoffs, like our Siwy Camilla Slouchy Cut Shorts in Wonder. Ash finishes off her look with huge aviators with gold accents, like our Tom Ford Falconer with Semimatte Black Frames. It's not easy being a style icon! |
