Tights Trauma

Just wanted to put this out there- Glamour's "Dos and Don'ts of bold, bright Tights!"

I've seen some monstrous fashion disasters lately walking down the street in dayglo tights and overdone ensembles. A particular no-no: two different colored legs (Can you say, 'American Apparel?')! As Glamour says, 'less is more.' The image is clicky, so brush up on your multi-hued manners and then head over to tee-zone.com to shop for some HUE tights.. carefully!

Stripey Style



Harper's Bazaar had a quick little note on their "Update Your Look" page, naming Striped Sweaters as a seasonal must-have. For the sake of argument here we're going to assume they mean horizontal stripes (because pinstripes are really the only way to go, vertically, unless you want to look like an escaped convict.. but that's a whole other blog post right there!).

If you're going to go colorful, try to make sure your bright is balanced out by a darker neutral (think Juicy's Striped Cardi as opposed to... Where's Waldo?). Thicker stripes tend to be more casual looking, so if you're going out, try something like Majestic's Cashmere Blend Striped Turtleneck.

And whatever you do, don't buy into the 'horizontal stripes make you look fat' nonsense. It's all in how you wear it, and the cut and quality of the shirt. You're on your own when it comes to working it, but we've definitely got some great tools for you to work with!

Dressed on Dexter




I may be ashamed of the amount of television I watch, but at least I can justify it: I'm WORKING! I'm doing research! I swear it has nothing to do with all the cute boys!


For instance, the above is a snap from this week's Dexter. And that's Deb (much more fashionable this year than last year) wearing Michael Stars. I got a little excited when I saw that. She's got on the Striped Elbow Sleeve Deep V in Macaw Stripe, and we've got it on sale. Now you too can look like an aspiring Miami PD detective with an homicidal sociopathic older brother!

Luxe Tux Touches



Editor's pick from the pages of Lucky magazine: Tuxedo inspired pieces. But how does such a man's style translate for women?

Let's start with tops. Ella Moss's Agatha Turtle Neck is a great example - a relaxed, feminine turtleneck is updated to high-class with a tux style ruffled bib. Adding a vest like Free People's Nomad Vest to a button down or bibbed shirt gives it a nice masculine feel, and the nomad vest has a knit hood and lapels for a funky twist.

To solidify the look, tailored bottoms work best. A pencil skirt like Velvet's is flattering and sexy but still formal. Young Fabulous & Broke's Ruffled Tuxedo Dress has got the look down pat, all in one piece. (Just think, all you have to do is slide in and grab your fave heels!) Or if you're a pants kinda gal, Bailey 44's Wide Leg Sea Pants with a tucked in blousy top will most definitely give you a formal tux feel.

And don't forget to finish off the look with a great playful pair of trouser socks like Hue's Argyle socks!
