Plaid at Nanette Lepore, DKNY, and Marc by Marc Jacobs.


Style tip?  Plaid continues its reign as fashion’s favorite fabric for Fall 2010.  While the plaid shirt is an easy way to snag this trend, we encourage you to go a bit further with this fabric.  We love the look of a plaid dress, either in strapless or sleeved forms.  Or, if you dare, try the plaid pants, paired with a top in like colors.  What to wear with plaid?  Juxtapose this classic fabric against something with a bit more edge - be it a leather jacket, moto boots, or a pair of killer sunglasses.

Fall 2010 Fashion Week Trend: Bows with a Twist

Bows at Lela Rose, Charlotte Ronson, and Marc Jacobs.


Style tip?  Bows may be reminiscent of childhood party dresses and adolescent headbands, but they need not be just for girls.  Women can wear bows too - just in a different, and age-appropriate way.  Skip the frills and the too-pretty pastels and wear bows with a bit of a twist.  A few ideas?  Abstract bows, as seen in the subtle bodice draping at Lela Rose.  Tailored bows, as in the tight black bow finishing off a blazer, button-down shirt, and shorts at Charlotte Ronson.  Last but not least, glamorous bows, like the glittering, shiny bow detail finishing off the delicate pastel dress at Marc Jacobs.
