Fan-tab-u-lous Fall '10 Faves: Moda Operandi
+
So now that Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week is over and my life is somewhat back to Normal, I wanted to recap on some of my Favorites for Fall.
The passion that the clothing exuded for Autumn was nothing short of awe inspiring. The models, covered in rich colors, opulent textures and dramatic lines, seemed to just rove down the runway... leaving attendees speechless.
Designers once again embraced a multitude of leathers, furs and shearlings pairing them with extravagant knits. Actually, I was surprised not to see any PETA demonstrators picketing in front of Bryant this year.
Although I may not have bumped into protesters at the tents, I did rub elbows with: Matt Dillion, Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel, Michelle Trachtenberg, Whitney Port, Carmen Electra, Kate Bosworth, Whoopie Goldberg, Amanda Peat, Rosario Dawson, Kerry Washington, Hayden Panettiere, Ed Westwick, Molly Sims, Liv Tyler, Kelly Osbourne (who, btw, lost an insane amount of weight and looks fanfrickingtastic! I saw her at Nanette Lepore, and don't think that I didn't tell her how awesome she looks.) Um..... Oh, I also bumped in to Sarah Jessica Parker at Halston and introduced myself as the original Samantha Jones.
And now, without further ado and, in no particular order:

Lauren Rae Levy: Celeb Stylist Holiday Style Guide
+
With all the Holiday festivities and New Year's Eve approaching, I was beginning to feel a bit overwhelmed with all my fashion options. It seemed that each dress was more fantastic then the next, which precipitated the conundrum, How do I wear that and with what?
I turned to my dear friend and Celebrity Stylist, Lauren Rae Levy, to help me wade through my seasonal style stress.
LRL's #1 tip:
DO get into the holiday spirit and take risks.
DON’T compete with the Christmas tree- the tree always wins.
With that spot on advice in mind, LRL chose a few magical looks to assure that any girl would look her best, but not out-sparkle the boughs of holly.
CLICK on the images below and find out: who, what, where, and how to be the belle of the ball.
