Luxe Headband

Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester's character on Gossip Girl )would approve of this luxe peacock feather headband with satin bow detail by Jennifer Ouellette; $75 at Barneys New York. Wear it casual with jeans, flats, and a simple top or dress it up with an updo, stilettos, and a strapless dress. Either way, let the headband get all the attention by keeping accessories to a minimum. Blair demands attention... follow her lead!

Coco

Claudia Schiffer and her brunette bob for Chanel's 2008-2009 Fall/Winter Ad Campaign is stunning.  While I love my long dark locks, this campaign is enough to make me want to chop my hair (don't worry Jonathan and Dad I won't cut my hair tomorrow!)  I have a slight obsession with lace and sweetheart necklines... and I think these tights are the perfect contrast in texture.  I recently watched the Lifetime original movie Coco Chanel and she once said, "A woman can be over-dressed, never over-elegant."

Milky Skin

My skin is in pore heaven with the bliss clog-dissolving cleansing milk.  I have been using this product for almost a week and my face is visibly smoother and continues to improve each day.  This face cleanser is awesome because it is gentle on sensitive skin while deep cleaning pores and leaving skin squeaky clean.  On top of the skin benefits it smells fresh!

Ladylike Leather

I recently bought this Aqua Women's Crop Motorcycle Jacket at Bloomingdales.  It caught my eye in the Lexington window display - but I was almost certain I would not be able to afford it.  Lucky me - I was pleasantly surprised that the jacket was only $278!  Searching for a small I was quickly let down... but my fashion radar spotted one on a statuesque mannequin near the Diane von Furstenburg collection!  Fingers were crossed... and oh yes it was a small!  Happy girl leaves the store.  New fall leather jacket in hand.  Imagination runs wild.  Must pair with my floral dress.

Cinderella wore Oscar

Dear Fairy Godmother,
My wish is to wear this gorgeous black and white gown from Oscar de la Renta's Spring 2009 Ready-to-Wear Collection to the ball. I simply adore the crisp lace bodice, belted waist, and black tulle! Forget the glass slippers this time...ask Jac and Gus if they can find a black Jimmy Choo peep toe instead. The evil step sisters are bound to have a pair in their closet! Ok, I must get back to scrubbing the floors. Toodles!
Love,
Cinderella

Bun Head

Curtain call! Whitney Port, takes a bow with the classic ballerina bun - a hairstyle that she frequently wears on The Hills. Whitney's effortless style is clean, sophisticated, and flirty. Her loose version of the Swan Lake bun is romantic and easier to wear than the tight, headache causing type worn with a tutu. A bun head is a fast and easy style for the "it" girl on the run to the latest fashion event. Let your face shine and pull that hair into a bun girls!
