kate middleton’s style

congrats to her engagement! and congrats on kate middleton’s style!  i have to admit that i wasn’t really someone to follow the royal family, but there is something about kate that makes me really excited for her.  she just seems like such a normal person with fabulous accessible style!  there are 3 things that kate really loves: hats, boots, and scarves.  it’s easy to get her look if you watch how she wears these 3 things.

first, hats. she loves hats – especially with feathers and for special events.

second, boots. preferably with skirts and they work with day and night outfits.

third, scarves with boots. big cozy scarves in solid colors so they don’t overwhelm the outfit.

and lastly, hats with scarves and boots! just keep it simple with the hat so it all pieces together nicely like her outfits.  so gorgeous!

how to dress like taylor swift

here are some tips on how to dress like taylor swift. she always has such fun style that is rarely without the bright red lipstick!

be fun – wear bright colors, like yellow and green, which look good with any skin tone/hair color.

be classy – you can’t go wrong with black and white!  this polka dot dress with the gathering at the side is an on-trend way to wear these colors, which is perfectly accented by the cute brown oxford shoes.

be sexy – sequins aren’t going anywhere anytime soon!  wear a mini-dress with sequin accents for a sexy look.

be romantic – this playful romantic outfit is a perfect way to wear ruffles and layers.  give it a little bit of an edge with patterned tights and knee high boots.

do you have any other favorite taylor swift looks?

kat von d is so cool

i don’t have any tattoos and don’t have plans for getting one, but i love kat von d, from la ink.  i think she’s so “rad.”  i think what i like about her is that she’s a 28 year old successful business woman with a calm, cool demeanor.  and she’s very confident in her style.  it’s not something i would be able to get away with, but it totally works for her.

what are kat von d’s wardrobe staples?  black, leather, tight, skin showing, edgy, grunge.  she would probably like the leather pants and vest from Black Market Baby:

and i know she likes the shredded shirts from Supadupa Vintage because she’s tweeted about how much she loves them!

2010 fall fashion trends: sneak peak

i know.  it’s still the middle of the summer and we don’t want to be thinking of fall weather right now.  but, it could be a good time to start setting money aside for when you go shopping in a couple months for some of the new fashion trends this fall.  here is a sneak peak at what’s coming for fall 2010, spotted on the runway and on celebs:

fringe: this trend has been around for a few seasons, but it will be even more popular this fall as an added accessory to different pieces in your wardrobe.  for example, nicole richie’s scarf is trimmed with fringe and vanessa hudgens has a fringe bag.  fringe will also be added to coats, pants, and jewelry.

prints: fall usually gets a little boring wearing solid colors, like black.  this fall, spice up your wardrobe with interesting prints, like the pant suit by akris and the  proenza schouler dress.

fur: this fall, full fur coats aren’t going to be so much the style (unless it’s a mix of fur color/print like the chloe coat).  instead, fur will be seen a lot as a trim on coats or sweaters, like the marc jacobs sweater.

are you looking forward to any of these fall trends?  any other trends you are looking forward to this fall?

how to transition your wardrobe to spring

spring is almost here!  this weekend up in boston was so beautiful out.  finally clear blue skies and 50-degree weather.  no scarf needed and i finally got some vitamin D!  i’m not going to get my hopes up too much, but we are only a couple weeks away from the official start of spring.  and while we’re between seasons, there are a couple simple things you can do to transition your wardrobe from winter to spring:
