What to Wear in 2010

It’s so complicated to put together this list of the best of 2009 that can be worn in 2010. Remember every designer showcases his or her collection almost one year in advance, so we have a pretty clear picture of what the upcoming year will bring…

STYLE PROFILE: Blake Lively

I usually destroy people when I talk about their fashion sense (don’t get me started on Miley), and for some reason those are the most read articles. Yet, Blake Lively is quite difficult for me to criticize because I feel she is really heading towards a fantastic direction in terms of style, especially when discussing the colors she chooses and the labels she prefers. Blake Lively (or our favorite high-school whore from Gossip Girl) is definitely becoming an IT girl in my book.

Musings on Going Vintage

This year we have reviewed trends for the holidays and important fashion shows throughout this year. I expect that you have learned that regardless of money or status, decent looking clothes are a necessity and we all feel that urge to dress accordingly to the latest and greatest trends and/or designers. However, there is a topic I haven’t covered yet, and that topic is “vintage” (used) clothing…

Victoria Beckham Changes The Look & Name Of Her Denim Line

By now people are recognizing Victoria Beckham as a designer, rather than a former Spice Girl or a footballer wife. She has overcome bad press (eating disorders, infidelities, etc.) and actually shown her doubters that she is not just a skinny bitch, but an intelligent businesswoman. After acclaimed formal collections, she has come forth with the second incarnation of her denim line, called Victoria Beckham Denim. I have no clue why she decided to call the previous one DVB, since no one could easily recognize her famous name. So, in a narcissistic indulgence, she goes ahead and stamps her full name on it.

THE GUIDE: What To Look For On The Holiday Sale Racks

Last week I showed you what to get that special man in your life, and this week it is time for me to jump into the wisest and most relevant information of the season: what to buy during the holiday sales! Regardless if you are bootylicious like Beyoncé or as skinny as Paris Hilton, I will show you exactly what to look for in the sale racks from Saks, Neiman Marcus, H&M, Target and Gap, some of my favorite stores. Remember, it is not appropriate in these times of economic woe to wear designer head to toe, but rather mix and match as much as possible. So here it comes again, year after year, fighting over sale items from Thanksgiving weekend ‘til the 25th of December, when everything that did not sell must be let go at incredible, discounted prices…

Your Boyfriend’s Christmas List

Oh my Lord. Christmas is just around the corner! Just thinking about it, I’m already getting images of Speidi celebrating Christmas as a married couple, surrounded by their new poodles in perfect harmony with Spencer’s fake beard. Or Lady Gaga dressed up as a futuristic Santa Claus. Or one of the Kardashians as Santa’s little helper in a desperate publicity stunt! Dreams do come true, right? Needless to say, I’ve been invaded (or raided) by the anticipated holiday spirit. Here, I managed to put together a wish list that any guy in your life would appreciate. Good luck holiday shopping!

LC Does Kohls

Regardless of Speidi’s attempts to destroy her, Lauren Conrad seems to come back stronger than ever, be it with books (best-seller LA Candy will become a movie), or a fashion line. For the latter, she joined forces with Kohl’s and was able to put together a simple and cute collection (“easy-breezy-beautiful” comes to mind)…
