Cozy Up In Tweed Clothing And Accessories That Aren't So ...

Alex Gambardella on Nov 18, 2009 10:19 AM PST

There's something about tweed that undeniably conjures up images of wintertime coziness... not to mention old-fashioned office attire and your grandma's go-to outfit for Sunday brunch. The good news is, however, that tweed has been updated to suit the styles of modern trends -- from platform pumps to boyfriend blazers -- and has expanded beyond its traditional use in plain ol' pea coats and conservative skirt suits. The great thing about the fabric is its ability to makes items still look office-appropriate without appearing stuffy, yet it can also be dressed up with metallic details for a night out, or thrown on last minute for an upgrade of your usual "just rolled outta bed" look. For some wintry-warm tweed pieces that are still totally on-trend, check out the slideshow!

Spring Trend Alert: Watercolor Prints

Adriana Nova on Apr 27, 2009 10:21 AM PDT

Watercolor prints have been declared one of the "it" trends for spring, from Coco Rocha sashaying in a demure rose-spattered A-line dress in H&M's Spring campaign to red carpet regulars like Vanessa Williams adding an artsy touch to their ensembles with watercolor print clutches, shoes, and scarves. A subtler alternative to bold prints, watercolor motifs are still dramatic in their own way and add an avant-garde yet feminine sensibility to any outfit. Walter, Elizabeth and James, Tracy Reese, and Black Halo are among the designers who have included graceful watercolor-inspired pieces in their spring collections. Apart from its visual merits, what's also fab about this trend is that it comes without an expiration date. Like quality art, it can be kept and sported for years and not appear dated at all. Careful not to overdo it, though: one impressionist piece per outfit makes the best impression. Check out the slideshow for stylish ways to channel your inner Monet!

Avoid Winter Accessory Overload With A Hoodie Scarf!

Anna Yu on Jan 16, 2009 3:22 PM PST

When you want to brave the winter chills outside, you may put on a hat and scarf, and while it may not always coordinate, it will at least keep you warm, right? Well, why bother worrying about mixing and matching when you can have a hat and scarf in one piece! I'm talking about hoodie scarves (scarves with hoods) that will keep your head and neck nice and cozy. Some hoodie scarves even have pockets so you might even forgo your mittens or gloves! This thick hooded scarf by Eugenia Kim has a futuristic sci-fi feel to it. Meanwhile, the ubiquitous circle scarf from American Apparel can be worn a dozen ways (or more if you're really inventive). Take a look at the slideshow for more hoodie scarves that will keep you nice and toasty all winter long.

Celeb Style Steal: Get Blake Lively's Striking Sexy Look!

Sabrina Newman on Aug 12, 2008 1:41 PM PDT

Gossip Girl Blake Lively has really been blossoming in the style department, and like her on screen alter-ago, Serena van der Woodsen, is cultivating a signature style that is unique and fashion-forward, but in a subtle, effortless kind of way. To keep from being too redundant, Blake, like Serena, throws the occasional curve-ball, with unexpected, statement-making styles that get the WOW's flowing. Case in point: the electric one shoulder Tadashi Shoji dress she sported at this year's Teen Choice Awards. Never one to go overboard, Blake let the dress do the talking and refrained from accessory excess- a statement cocktail ring, diamond studs, and she was good to go. The end result: one of the sexiest, most striking styles we've seen from the star thus far! Check out my SLIDESHOW to replicate this killer look!
