Fall for Pink this Season

Love the unexpected use of pink in Jil Sander's Fall 2012 collection!
Carry over some of your summer bright and pastel pinks into early fall, pairing them with basic shades such as stone, camel and taupe.

Color Studies: Colorblocking Still Strong for Fall!

Color blocking is still going strong for Fall 2012.  I love this combination from BCBG Max Azria's runway collection.  A great bold color palette to play around with!

Featured Item: Golden Christian Dior Bustier

 Because I love everything about it!

This gorgeous Christian Dior bustier is exquisitely fashioned from golden yellow floral silk jacquard fabric with a smocked tulle overlay.  U.S. size 6 (as labeled) but seems to run smaller.  (Straps are removable).  See listing for more information and fit detail.

Featured Item: Halston Heritage Purple Halter Dress

Whether you're headed to a beach-side cocktail party or a black tie soiree, this Halston Heritage gown is your go-to dress!  Rich purple flatters nearly anyone and the seventies-inspired design is beyond sexy.  Fabulously versatile, pair this dress with metallic gold flat or strappy high-heeled sandals.  An armful of bangles and dangling chandelier earrings complete the look.

I know I've talked about this one before, but I can't help myself... I love it!

Outfit Inspiration: Gorgeous in Green

Wear It Now and Later: Coral Jeans

Never fear!  You still have plenty of time to wear those pretty pastel jeans... with the right styling, you can carry this summer's trend right through fall!  I am particularly fond of these J Brand coral 811 skinny jeans, but other shades (mint, lavender and yellow) would look just as great!

Wear them now:

• Marc Jacobs Finch Flight top
• Rossana Fani "Isabella" bead and leather necklace
• Givenchy alligator-embossed leather envelope clutch handbag
• Belle by Sigerson Morrison "Randy" leopard sandals

Wear them later:

• J. Crew "Tippi" sweater
• Witchery feather-print scarf
• Rag & Bone tan "Harrow" booties
• Proenza Schouler "PS11" chestnut leather shoulder bag

Color-blocking 101

Perhaps you like the color blocking trend, but find you are intimidated by selecting separates?  A color-blocked bag or pair of shoes easily pairs with a monochromatic outfit.  One of the easiest color-blocked items to pull of is a top or blouse.  You can almost always add white or black pants for an instant outfit with maximum effect!  Try some of the combinations below...

Can't decide what color to wear?  How about all of them?  Just remember to keep everything else simple!
