A Sleek Sneaker

Put your right foot forward this season with updated takes on classic sneakers! As the weather gets warmer, a comfy and classic sneaker is the perfect shoe for walking to work, enjoying a stroll, or paired with a miniskirt for a laidback weekend ensemble. <a href="http://www.converse.com/index.aspx?mode=pd&sku=1Y234#productdetail"target="_blank">This pair</a> is a great variation on the classic Converse sneaker, as it’s lace-less and slips on. Look for neutral colors in either canvas or leather to compliment any outfit and give off a retro, kicked back vibe.

Easy Spring Dresses

This spring get some height with a chunky platform sandal. This look is all over the Spring runways, and will balance out the more voluminous, relaxed silhouettes that we’re bound to see thing spring. While these may look a little daunting to high-heel amateur, something this chunky and with a platform is much more comfortable and manageable than a sky-high stiletto. Pair them with super skinny pants or a full skirt to make a major statement. While you can definitely find some lust-worthy pairs on the runways, <a href="http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=34761&pid=652226&scid=652226002"target="_blank">this pair</a> is even more coveted since it’s available at <a href="http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=34761&pid=652226&scid=652226002"target="_blank">The Gap</a> and is designed by renowned and worshipped Parisian shoe crafter Pierre Hardy. And at $98, this might be the fiercest bargain of the season.

While it’s blizzarding in New York City, I was wishing I had one of these this morning…Trapper hats are a timeless accessory, that happen to be making a huge comeback along with the rest of the lumberjack look – think plaid, flannel, leather jackets, rugged boots. Available in both real and faux fur options and at every price point, this is a fun hat that seems to look good on nearly everyone, and definitely provides serious warmth. With a cool pair of aviators, this look will take you from frostbitten to fabulous immediately. The shearling trapper hat shown here is by Isaac, available at <a href="http://www.http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.bergdorfgoodman.com/products/an/BGD3378_an.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.bergdorfgoodman.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml%3FitemId%3Dprod6570010%26parentId%3Dcat215003%26ECID%3DBGAPRGlam&usg=__Nq9HSwfWzRgOp1oLrXY10-oXSvY=&h=270&w=216&sz=14&hl=en&start=10&um=1&tbnid=5082rDdxqK5PPM:&tbnh=113&tbnw=90&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dtrapper%2Bhat%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US:official%26sa%3DG.com"target="_blank">Bergdorf Gooman</a>.

These extra thick leggings fit somewhere perfectly between tights, pants, and leggings, and are the ultimate staple for keeping warm, looking good, and channeling celebs! While leggings have been on the trend radar for a couple years now, this updated, double-knit version provides a thicker material for added warm, as well as adding a more substantial effect than thin cotton leggings. They straddle the border between pants and leggings nicely, and the body-hugging slim fit is flattering and gives a sleek silhouette, but a thicker material also tends to be a little more forgiving. The best part of this understated staple is the versatility, they can be worn with high boots for an equestrian feel, black booties for a sleek streamlined look, with heels for nighttime, or even with ballet flats to reference Audrey Hepburn’s famed cigarette pants. Check out <a href="http://www.intermixonline.com/"target="_blank">Intermix</a> for tons of great options – especially some serious steals in the sale section…

While discounts are running deep, it’s a great time to snap up some long-term investment pieces at half the price. And if you’re looking for the perfect boots or bag, the color cognac is the smartest way to go…this shade of leather will definitely stretch your dollar the furthest, as it compliments both brown and black ensembles perfectly, making it the universal and ultimate choice in a leather good. While darker browns get into clashing territory with black accessories, cognac, caramel, or walnut hues ride the fine line and look stunning with all outfits. Paired with black, accessories such as this lust-worthy <a href="http://www.bluefly.com/Bottega-Veneta-walnut-basketwoven-leather-flap-satchel/PRODUCT_CROSS-SELL/210014400/detail.fly"target="_blank">Bottega Veneta tote</a> gives off an equestrian feel. But this shade of leather is great at any price point, as the richness of the color gives it an expensive and luxe look, even if you know the truth is otherwise!

Grab one for a discount, or jazz up something you already own – but either way, a fun party frock for this holiday season is a definite must. Now that Thanksgiving has passed, it’s time to seriously start concentrating on the holiday party circuit. While I’ve already blogged about adding a little sparkle to start ringing in the most wonderful time of the year, it’s important to have extra special dresses set aside for festive parties at get-togethers. It’s the best time of year to go a little over the top with the glamour so let no ruffle, frill or bow be too big. Even if you’re passing up on the deep discounts this year, try adding a little holiday pizazz with either some statement costume jewelry or a jeweled clutch or sparkly pair of shoes. So get creative or get shopping and snap up something extra special for the holidays!

What could be better than cozy plaid this winter? If it’s good enough for Lohan – it’s good enough for you. All kinds of celebs have been spotted in this traditional look, but update the style favored by lumberjacks by adding edgier personal touches. A fitted plaid shirt is ideal for an easy weekend outfit, paired with relaxed, casual jeans, or an over-sized version makes for perfect loungewear with leggings and some slippers. This version, available on <a href="http://www.shopbop.com/"target="_blank">Shopbop</a>, is an ultra pricey version by the Olsen Twins’ line <a href="http://www.shopbop.com/plaid-shrunken-school-boy-shirt/vp/v=1/845524441833525.htm?folderID=2534374302108160&fm=browse-brand-shopbysize"target="_blank">Elizabeth and James</a>, but very similar versions can be found at any price point, and in just about any combination of colors that suits you. If you prefer feminine to rugged, look for details such as ruffles and unusual tailoring to soften to rough-edged look.

These are everywhere this season – dresses that appear to be a skirt and top, I have mixed feelings about them – but having one go-to version in the closet might not be a bad idea…While these combination top-and-skirt dresses are an excellent option for a lazy day when you need a shortcut and don’t feel like compiling an outfit, they lack the beauty of true separates, which can be mixed and matched. My advice would be to have one version on reserve for those uninspired days, because they are brilliant on the one hand, but don’t stock your closet with them – stick to traditional skirts and tops, instead. Here is a <a href="http://www.shopbop.com/secretary-dress-milly/vp/v=1/845524441832815.htm?folderID=2534374302050290&fm=browse-brand-shopbysize"target="_blank">a great Milly version</a> and shown is an option from <a href="http://www.shopbop.com/theory-dresses/br/v=1/2534374302063624.htm?baseIndex=12&fm=browse-brand-shopbysize"target="_blank">Theory</a>.

What better way to keep warm this winter, while getting some more mileage out of dresses and skirts? Tights are such a great option to wear under favorite fall or even summer (!) frocks and completely change the whole look of an outfit, into a cozier, warmer version for winter. Not to mention, opaque black tights do wonders for a leg-lengthening silhouette, especially with heels or a boot. Don’t be concerned that this trend is only for those under the age of 12 either—many of the Fall 2008 runway collections featured all kinds of tights, like those seen here at Rodarte. If you’re feeling really adventurous try a patterned, textured, or colored pair. The best part? Tights are probably one of the cheapest accessories out there! Check out this huge selection <a href="http://www.hue.com/"target="_blank">huge selection</a> of basically every variety under the sun.

Adding vintage inspired knobs to furniture you already own is a great way to add a little character to your home without breaking the bank! Whether you have an old dresser that is lacking a little charm, or like me, you’ve just moved in and find the Ikea furniture a little mundane, add a little of your own style with some decorative knobs. They are small and discreet enough to not overpower a room, and can fit in with just about any color scheme, but add worlds of style and charm to a regular old dresser or cabinet. Check out this <a href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/category.jsp?popId=DECORATING&navAction=poppushpush&navCount=2&pushId=DECOR_HARDWARE&id=DECOR_HARDWARE_KNOBS_HANDLES"target="_blank">selection at Anthropologie</a>, and the best part is knobs are so easy to switch since they all just screw on and off!

This unusual find is a perfect (and chic) remedy for a bad hair day! Feather hair accessories are everywhere, and something about the rich earthy tones that come with this avian trend really say “great fall must-have” to me. Whether the entire headband is covered in feathers (peacock or otherwise), or just one plume on the side, this is one of the prettiest trends for fall. The small feathers lend a sense of daintiness to even the most gruesome hair day. This option is a well-priced headband from <a href="http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/catalog/productdetail.jsp?itemdescription=true&itemCount=10&startValue=1&selectedProductColor=&sortby=&id=14375919&parentid=W_ACC_HAIRACCESSORIES&sortProperties=+product.marketingPriority,-product.startDate&navCount=207&navAction=poppushpush&color="target="_blank">Urban Outfitters</a> but there are tons of others, wide and skinny, to choose from! So on your next bad hair day, whip your hair into a bun and throw one of these in, or dress up a night out by holding back your locks with some sleek feathers.

Add a little shrunken menswear to your looks this fall! This is another new interpretation on a classic look, so it is updated and feels new, but is ultimately timeless – the perfect balance between tradition and trend. A shrunken boy blazer can be the perfect end to an outfit – either throw it on over a tee or blouse with jeans and flats for a weekend-cool look, or even over a dress for work. Spring dresses can be worn all year round with a little jacket, and a blazer adds a nice degree of edge to ultra-fem looks. While it may seem like an investment piece, blazers-of-the-moment are actually available for every wallet size. Check out <a href="http://www.forever21.com/category.asp?catalog_name=FOREVER21&category_name=outwr_blazers&Page=1"target="_blank">these styles from Forever 21</a> all for under $40!

Another option which I have learned from How to Have Style is to buy a boy’s blazer in a large size, for half the price but equally high quality. Good luck!

This is the ultimate fall fabric – as it can be dressed up for evening, or worn in the wintry weather outdoors or to the office! Another deal breaker, is that tweeds go with nearly everything – and whether it be a cute cropped jacket, or a pair of trousers, or a pencil skirt – it is such a timeless and versatile fabric. It gives any turtleneck or blouse a more luxe look (think Chanel), and also lends a nice outdoorsy feel for fall (think English countryside). This season designers have broadened the horizons for tweed, and you can find handbags, shift dresses, traditional trousers, pumps, and everything in between. Also look out for less conventional forms of the fabric – in bright colors or metalics (seen here in this <a href="http://www.jcrew.com"target="_blank">J.Crew shift dress</a>), though you can’t go wrong with the more old-fashioned brown hues. Tweeds are the perfect solution for looking great, and feeling great – as the heaviness of the fabric adds a desirable warmth to any outfit. So in whatever form you choose, snap up some tweed today!

A scarf is a great way to brighten up any outfit – and adds warmth as colder weather approaches! Grab a great colored scarf, in either silk or a heavier woven material to be worn straight through winter and into spring. Either tie around your neck Parisian-style (check out scarf-tying tips in Isaac’s new book <a href="/style_lab/how_to_have_style" target="_blank">“How To Have Style”</a>), tie a silk scarf around straps of a handbag, or as a great headscarf – definitely a versatile must-have accessory!

No matter if it’s turned to a cool fall or an Indian Summer, this printed mini-skirt is a must no matter what the weather! Mini skirts are a great way to transition between late summer, early fall, and straight into winter. If it’s still on the warm side, go bare-legged and add a cute tee or silk top – with a great printed skirt, it’s easy to pair it with something really simple. As things start to cool down, add a sweater on top, a turtleneck always makes for a really classic look. And finally, pair with tights or boots (or both!) when the temp really starts to drop. This particular <a href="http://www.shopbop.com/block-print-plaid-skirt-marc/vp/v=1/845524441824064.htm?folderID=2534374302023681&fm=crosssell" target="_blank">skirt</a> is a Marc by Marc Jacobs, and the print and color is unique and fab, but search around for all different kinds. But the mini skirt is definitely here to stay!

With the campaign trail heating up, its the most current trend to follow! The Obama-Biden campaign has made it easy to show your support, while still looking stylish by teaming up with the Runway To Change organization. This consortium of designers each designed a piece to showcase their support for Obama. The different pieces, which range from tees to tanks to totes, each have their own character. I suggest Isaac’s <a href="http://store.barackobama.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=TB24412" target="_blank">tote</a> , and each purchase goes towards Obama’s Victory Fund!

A classic riding boot is a must-have for fall and winter! They’re the perfect footwear for colder weather, so look for a tall leather boot, in black or brown, with equestrian style details or buckles. Flat boots look great with a skinny pant tucked in, and are the perfect choice if you’re walking to work! These are <a href="http://www.piperlime.com/browse/product.do?cid=19794&pid=540445&scid=540445002" target="_blank">Frye</a> boots, which are on the pricier side, but they will certainly withstand the weather and will last a lifetime.

With Labor Day around the corner, it’s time to start thinking about fall! Corduroys are a great staple for the cooler weather, and provide a nicer alternative to jeans. Tons of stores are carrying cords in a wide range of fall colors, but try keeping it light with a white pair for early fall. They’re a great neutral and add fab texture to any outfit!

August is just around the corner, and you know what that means…even hotter weather! A cute pair of jean shorts are the perfect outfit accessory to get you through those hot summer days. You can wear them around town or you can throw on a pair before hitting the beach. I especially love these paint-splattered shorts by Seven-for-all-Mankind because they fit really well and because they’re funkier than your average pair of jean shorts. You can find them at <a href="http://www.intermixonline.com/" target="_blank">Intermixonline.com</a> or at <a href="http://www.bergdorfgoodman.com/" target="_blank">bergdorfgoodman.com</a>. But if you’re looking to save some cash, a great way to rock this fab summer look is to get creative and make your own! It’s cheap and easy to do. Instead of getting rid of that old pair of jeans that you never wear, grab a scissor and start cutting! Whether you decide to buy them or make your own, jean shorts are in so jump on board!

Even though it’s almost August, a hot pair of sandals is definitely still a must have! Gladiator sandals are obviously in, and needless to say, there are so many types to choose from this summer. Some of the styles are much more dramatic than others. While I love many of them, I’m excited to report that I’ve finally found my favorite pair (well, at least for now)! I absolutely love the Tory Burch Alexis Patent Gladiator Sandals. They are amazing! They are very comfortable, extremely trendy, and they look great with everything I wear! The sandals come in silver, gold, white, black, and tan. So if you want to rock this cool summer trend but aren’t sure which pair or type of gladiator sandal is right for you, then give the Tory Burch ones a try! Yes, they are a bit pricey ($275) ...but sometimes us girls just need to indulge!

If you’re looking for a sexy new bikini to get your summer started right, check out this Stone-Print String Bikini by Diane Von Furstenberg. Its stone print is not only fun but also flirty. Not to mention, the bikini fit is amazing, which is why I personally own it in both colors. The bikini comes in black/white/tan or lime green/white/black. While I love the zebra-like look of the black bikini (who doesn’t look hot wearing animal prints on the beach!), I think that the brighter lime green color really makes it pop. Both of the bikinis can be accessorized with matching DVF cover-ups, which are also extremely cute!

I love this Betsey Johnson Leopard Watch…what can I say except that it’s just so fun! It caught my eye because I can’t wear a leopard print on a dress or shirt, it’s just too much for me. But the leopard face and band is just enough, it’s perfect to jazz up an outfit. And come on now everyone is wearing something gold. I think it’s a great accessory if you can’t pull off a head to toe leopard look. It can be found on <a href="http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/index.jsp " target="_blank"> UrbanOutfitters </a> for $90.00.
