Cargo
As much as I like military, I’m not excited for the cargo pant.. or short or skirt. The pockets are practical, yes. But with those extra pockets comes extra volume to your hips and legs. And who wants that?

Last spring, Michelle Obama started a plastic craze when she wore a clear Sonia Rykiel belt on the cover of Oprah magazine. All of a sudden there was plastic everywhere from Chanel bags to Maison Martin Margiela shoulder pads. Sonia Rykiel clearly wants to capitalize on designing the First Lady’s fave clear accessory. The same belt with different color buckles cinched every other model’s waist on Sonia Rykiel’s Spring 2010 runway.

Farrah Fawcett and Jaclyn Smith were my two favorite Charlie’s Angels. So, like most people. I was saddened to learn this morning that the blonde feathered-haired, blue-eyed beauty had passed away from cancer at 62. I took a moment to look back at her fabulous 70s fashion and realized that many of her looks mirror the clothing seen on the spring runways. So, I put together a little photo tribute to Farrah’s style:
Jumpsuits
Whitley Kros, Miss Sixty, Martin Grant
Stripes (more…)
Just as I’m starting to get sequined out, Nina Ricci designer Olivier Theysken comes along scattering gold beads over my girl crush, Lily Donaldson. The sequined shoes were a little much, but that turtleneck gown was one of my favorite looks of Paris Fashion Week. It made me fall in love with sparkle, shimmer and shine all over again.

I don’t care what the fashion world says, I will not—I repeat, will not-take style cues from MC Hammer! I even tried on three pairs of harem pants last weekend to give the baggy style a chance but I ended up laughing at myself in the dressing room.
I just can’t touch this trend.

I wasn’t a fan of geometry in high school. Maybe if my teacher had worn some of these clothes while lecturing about shapes I would have been more interested.
