    Get inspired for fun and frivolity with sparkly sequin skirts. These 'sparklers' are not just for Independence Day! Add a new dimension to your wardrobe with the continuing metallic trend. Sequined skirts look best when paired with a solid colored blouse or tank. Two standout styles we love are this light yellow "Lemoncello" skirt from Robert Rodriguez (bottom right) and Proenza Schouler's swing skirt version in black (top right). Pair your sequined skirt with a pretty solid color sleeveless blouse and statement making chunky woven platforms.

    Make A Statement With Architectural Heels

    Move over, "it" bag. For the past couple of seasons, it's been about the "it" shoes-- who could forget the crazy caged booties at YSL, or the futuristic lucite heels at Gianfranco Ferre? All over the Spring/Summer '09 runways it was the outrageous heels that stole the show. Shoes with unique and artistic shaped heels are a great way to try out a more fashion-forward look. While you may not be ready to rock the futuristic, exaggerated shoulders of the Balenciaga and Balmain collections, you can absolutely try an out there shoe. Look for platforms, block heels, cone heels, and beyond- there was no stopping the designers' creativity this season! Update your wedge look with a cut-out like the "Ashley" wedge from Kors by Michael Kors. For a platform look, try a circular heel instead of a traditional stacked heel, like Pour La Victoire's "Felicia" sandal. And don't think this look only works with large clunky shoes. Ladylike shoes get the "look at me" treatment too! Metallic heels are perfect for evening, like Oscar de la Renta's cut away cone heels and Proenza Schouler's silver cut-out heel sandals. Next time you're putting together an outfit, start with a statement shoe and build from there. Check out the slideshow for some shoe inspiration.

    Ditch The Wayfarers And Get A Pair Of Circle Sunglasses!

    It's been said once and again, Mary-Kate Olsen is a trendsetter. A ways back she stood out in her circle shades in a sea of Wayfarer wearing celebs. A few months later a diverse set of designers like Proenza Schouler, Karen Walker and Ralph Lauren sent their models down the runway wearing, you guessed it... circular sunglasses. Slowly but surely you are seeing people put down the tried and true square glasses for a fresher look, a circle shade. If you want some "look at me" sunglasses, the circle is where it's at. Small little O's give a great 60's John Lennon feel that bring you right back to days of peace and love. Try some purple "Super Duper" Karen Walker shades or if you're not ready for the $200 dollar investment go for a pair from Urban Outfitters. Still hanging on to the big stunner shades look? You can still go circular! Try some oversized circles a la Nicole Richie for a 1970's beach party look. Check out the slideshow to see some totally circular styles.

    Five Hot Designer Heels That You Can Actually Walk In!

    It's hard to forget the many falls on Prada's spring runway, not to mention the catwalk stumbles at Rodarte,Pucci and Peter Som. It's a long way down for those tall models to begin with -- why not throw on some 5 inch heels? TIMBER! These models are trained professionals. If they can't walk in those heels, how are we mere mortals supposed to even attempt it? With shoes getting taller, the danger level has hit an ultimate high. The best-selling Yves Saint Laurent "Tribute" sandal has an ankle twisting, leg breaking 5 1/2 inch heel. At this rate, they're going to have to start making designer crutches too. It's becoming more and more difficult to find a sexy, high-heeled shoe that doesn't resemble that of a stripper's, let alone a torture device. In my attempt to save us all from sprained ankles and busted knees, I'm making this plea to designers: Please make less dangerous shoes! In the meantime, check out my slideshow for my top five picks of sensibly sexy shoes, all with heels under 3 and a half inches.

    Steal Mary-Kate Olsen's Cozy-Chic Layered Look!

    It can be difficult to look chic and polished during the winter months, when the temptation to bury yourself underneath piles of chunky layers is at an all-time high. The Olsen twins are a constant source of fashion inspiration for me and at the New York screening of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, funky sis Mary-Kate once again delivered a knockout performance with a look that was super stylish and totally cold-weather practical. Mary-Kate fended off the chill wearing a black dress, black velvet coat, and a funky leopard print Louis Vuitton scarf which added a pop of color to the monochrome look. She injected the look with some of her signature edge, sporting a pair of cut out booties by Proenza Schouler and accessorizing with some statement-making rings.

    Harem Pants: Love 'Em Or Lose 'Em?

    Harem pants, dropped crotch pants, hammer pants-- whatever you want to call them, they've all been popping up on the runways for the past couple of seasons. YSL showed them for Fall '08 and dozens of designers including Proenza Schouler and PHI showed them for Spring '09. It seems like the silhouette in fashion is finally changing-- baggy boyfriend jeans are now okay for the fashion-forward girl, so why shouldn't enormous comfy pants be? They're a great alternative to those skintight jeans you've been stuffing yourself into, especially post holiday! You can rock a one piece like Mrs. Tom Cruise or pair them with a sleek little jacket and some heels and you're good to go, right? What do you think? Totally rad and fashion-forward, or do these need to be left in the early 90s with MC Hammer?
