Issue VIII of the Friday Fashion Hotlist: a compilation of some of the cutest and coolest stuff Style Intelligence Report saw out there this week.

This week, we’re hot on accessories: a grosgrain belt for women, and classic canvas slip-ons for men.

For women…

And for men…
Vans Classic Slip Ons

We’ve been seeing these classic canvas shoes on the feet of stylemakers everywhere. Some may prefer the more fashion-forward wildly patterned look, but we’re opting for a more versatile solid color. Find both varieties at the Vans website.

Shopping Guide: Metallic Shoes

Lately, we’ve spotted feet in a range of shades that run the gamut from bronze to pewter. 24K heels bring us back to the days of ’70s and ’80s excess, barely-there flats have us longing to soak up the sun in Capri, and strappy sandals allow some of us think we’re partying in Ibiza, even if we’re just in a seedy nightclub. Fulfill your greatest (shoe) fantasy with all of the gilt and none of the guilt!

Friday Fashion Hotlist | 8.5.05

Issue VII of the Friday Fashion Hotlist: a compilation of some of the cutest and coolest stuff Style Intelligence Report saw out there this week.

This week, we’re keeping warm with the perfect summer-to-fall jacket for women and a motocross-inspired jacket for men.

For women…
Zoe Jacket
Zoe Jacket | $99.50 at Abercrombie and Fitch

The medium weight of the jacket combined with the detatchable hoodie makes this the ultimate jacket for the summer to fall transition. Plus the pockets are really cute.

And for men…
“Can You Handle It” Biker Jacket
“Can You Handle It” Biker Jacket | $69.99 at Kenneth Cole

The motocross styling on this lightweight jacket adds to its classic charm.

Shopping Guide: Circle Skirts

We love this season’s tiered skirt, but we have an itch that it’s going to end up on the sale rack this fall…just like last season’s poncho. A refreshing departure from that is the circle skirt, with just a little fifties charm and all of its timeless elegance.

Some of our favorite ideas:

DKNY Pleated Circle Skirt
DKNY Pleated Circle Skirt | $245 at eLuxury
'Tabitha' in Camel Cord
BCBG Max Azria Sequined Skirt | $158 at Saks Fifth Avenue
'Tabitha' in Camel Cord
‘Tabitha’ in Camel Cord | $72 at Boutique Ooh La La
Lafayette 148 Printed Circle Skirt
Lafayette 148 Printed Circle Skirt | $169.99 at Bloomingdale’s

Shopping Guide: Grey Denim

Looks like the denim industry is using its head. After season upon season of complicated rinses and treatments, jeans are going grey this fall.

As the most sophisticated denim variety, grey denim has versatility, refinement, and a dose of cool. It instantly elevates an otherwise so-so outfit, whether you’re going out for groceries or going to a club. Integrate this versatile piece into your wardrobe by pairing it with anything and everything in your closet, especially your whites from spring and summer.

What’s the verdict? Grey matters.

Check out some of our favorites, from Yoox.com:

For men…

Neil Barrett Jeans
Neil Barrett Jeans | $55 at Yoox

Cloak Jeans
Cloak Jeans | $74 at Yoox

For women…

This week, we’re paying homage to our fair city of San Francisco with items from local designers: a crazycute set of button earrings from Good Together, a mother-daughter design duo out of Oakland, and an absolutely Mesmerizing t-shirt design from Da Hee Projects, a design firm that makes graphic clothing to generate money for social and political projects.

For women…
Button Dangle Earrings

Amazingly cute earrings made from buttons, of all things. They also have a button necklace for $40.

And for men (and women!)…
Around and Around Tee
Around and Around Tee | $27 at Da Hee Projects

Chaotic but captivating. And I’m not ashamed to admit that I like the bunny.
