Look of the day July 20th, 2010

Nanette Lepore's new fall line is now on pre-order at Bloomies! This military meets model look from the designer is so cool! I love the stiff buttoned up look of the jacket over the wild movement of the palettes. I also love the throw back to tinted leg wear, dark but still sheer and sexy! Forget the opaque tights and embrace the sheer leg ware for fall! And note: the booties are just as cool as the rest of the outfit! Never ruin a good outfit with a bad shoe. How to tell if you are wearing the wrong shoe? If its the same shoe that you wear to work its the wrong shoe for this outfit! Try something new, buy a shoe that you might not wear everyday!

Look of the day July 21st, 2010

Look of the day: Bright yellow with neutral accents. Isla Fisher is pictured here wearing Philip Lim 3.1. This is what everyone should be wearing today! It's sunny and wonderful today in the twin cities and I want to see more Minnesotans wearing color! This pale but bright yellow reminds me of daffodils and canaries:) Two things that could bring a smile to anyones face! Take a tip from Isla and add lady-like demure with a cropped sleeved neutral jacket, or a natural waisted belt in beige. This is yellow for grown ups!



Enjoy!

Look of the Day: 7.19.10

Today's look of the day goes from the runway to main street in the form of the Hello Sunday blazer from Anthropologie! See it on the runway by Givenchy....
And from the Anthropologie website....



Hello Sunday blazer, $98!
Although I'm not a fan of wearing black, (just because you are wearing black doesn't mean you are fashionable: note to half of the women I know) I do love a graphic black and white stripe! Its so editorial and crisp! Wear this now with army green cropped cargos and later with a high waisted wide leg trouser for winter!
Enjoy,

Look of the Day! July 18th 2010

Look of the day! Jessica Biel though famous for absolutely nothing, today deserves our admiration. Her outfit is killer! Not only is her chambray skirt perfectly draped and accented by a smashing orange bag, her shoes are astounding! These shoes! Just when you thought that Stewart Weitzman was only making shoes for the blue haired upper crust of society, they come out with these! A Menswear inspired, cut out, lace-up oxford in a neutral! How many trends can we fit in one pair of shoes? Again, I'm astounded. These are a must have.

Nicely done Ms. Biel.


Enjoy,
