Get The Sexy Nerd Look Inspired By Jenni Kayne Fall '09

Jenni Kayne is best known for her classically chic pieces that are a perfect fusion of wearability and edge. For Fall '09, she added some nerdy touches to her designs, including large rimmed glasses, menswear inspired pants, and boyfriend blazers that look oh-so-cool and perfect for fall. A loose fitting leather mini skirt paired with opaque tights is sexy enough for night, yet the roomy fit and the covered legs make it totally day appropriate as well! Pair the skirt with a bone colored draped tee and a black boyfriend blazer when the winter chill starts to roll in for the perfect sexy nerd look. The final touches? A large wooden bead necklace and some totally sexy nerd round-framed spectacles. Check out the slideshow to see how to get the look yourself!

Stay Comfortably Chic This Fall In Classic Corduroy!

With Halloween and Thanksgiving lurking right around the corner, there's no denying that the fall season and its considerably cooler weather has descended upon us. There are the basic fall fabrics that immediately come to mind - worsted wool, cashmere, denim blends and finished canvas materials - that automatically make us think warmth and coverage. However, there is one material out there that is perfect for fall and has not received the kind of recognition is deserves- corduroy! This material is thicker, making it perfect for the autumn chill. It's pliable and can be blended with other materials, much like denim, but it's even softer. It can come in a variety of colors or a versatile range of garments that are appropriate for casual weekends or to help make a fashion statement for the first weeks of school. Corduroy, unlike denim, can also be used to for pieces that can be considered work appropriate. That brushed wool blazer may seem a little too stern sometimes, but try one in corduroy and you'll be pleasantly surprised by the youthful business look it lends to the wearer. Look for a corduroy with a higher spandex percentage (no less than 2%, but no more than 4%) for a comfy must-have pant that matches everything your favorite jeans do, and more! Just click on the slideshow to see out some corduroy creations to add to your cooler weather closet!

Hot In The Hive: Too Faced Lip Bronzer

Just because summer is drawing to a close, it doesn't mean you need to ditch your fab summer glow and banish all your tan-enhancing products to their train-case storage. In fact, there's one place that might have been neglected by your bronzing beach days -- your lips! While the idea of a tan is certainly summery, the bronze-y shimmer of this Too Faced Lip Bronzer is completely fall festive. The tropical flavors and scents may have you nostalgic for poolside days of your recent past, but the three pretty golden-based shades and skin-soothing conditioners never go out of season! Plus, as a compulsive buyer of all lip gloss, especially shimmery versions of natural hues, I can't help but be on board for this sun-kissed take on the nude lip!


Price: $17 each
Who Found It: xgalexy was the first to add Too Faced Lip Bronzer to the Hive.
