    The Milly By Michelle Smith fall/winter €™08 collection included updated versions of the classic Milly style I adore. We saw sleek silhouettes, beautiful fabrics, and timeless styles that can work for women from all walks of life and will never go out of style. This collection had a strong 1940€™s glamour vibe to it with a bit of the 1920€™s mixed in. The models all donned glamorous up-do€™s with stunning hair-pieces on top of piles of curls. From the layered necklaces, to the lace flirtily peeking under structured skirts, to the super high-waisted pants, to the drop-waist dresses, to the sheer tops, to the cuffs, ruffles, and gorgeous embroidery, designer Michelle Smith has provided another season€™s worth of items to lust after!

    Stylehive Scorecard
    Color Palette: Black, Ecru, Gold, Charcoal, Soft Pink
    Cuts/Styles: Sheer Tops, High-waisted trousers, Cinched Waists, Box Pleat Skirts, Loose Silhouettes

    I got the chance to chat with Cheryl Hines backstage before the Heart Truth€™s Red Dress Collection show where I was surprised to learn three things about the Curb Your Enthusiasm star. One, she is stunningly gorgeous in person, and two, she is just as funny and spunky, if not more, in real life as she is on the show, and the three, she is kind of my soul mate, who knew! Read on to find out why...

    NYFW Runway Report: Tracy Reese Gets In Touch With Mother Nature

    In a season filled with dark and muted tones, Tracy Reese presented a fall/winter €™08 collection replete with beautifully rich jewel-tones, soft airy fabrics, and cheerful patterns and prints. Tracy used nature as a source of inspiration for this collection: green was the dominant color, along with blue and neutral shades. We also saw beautiful floral frocks, soft sheath dresses, feathered embellishments, and striking animal prints. The theme on this runway was anything goes: large oversized sweaters with fancy sequined skirts, mixing gold and silver, bold colors with bold animal prints, fancy frocks with €˜don€™t mess€™ lace up boots. Being bold and beautiful was clearly the take-home message.

    Stylehive Scorecard:
    Color Palette: Green, Blue, Fuchsia, Gold
    Cuts/Styles: High-waisted trousers, drop waist dresses, loose and free-flowing
    Inspiration: Green pastures, stormy waves, wild animals, beautiful sunsets, flowers - anything and everything beautiful in the natural world.

    NYFW Runway Report: Miss Sixty Hearts Haute Hippie

    Psychedelic. That's all there is to say about the Miss Sixty fall/winter €™08 collection. But I'll go on anyway. Because the theme went beyond the clothes and onto the décor, with the runway splattered in DayGlo colors and peace signs, and several huge, dizzyingly colorful buses as the backdrop. The collection was strongly influenced by the swingin' sixties, but still stayed true to the signature Miss Sixty vibe by keeping the looks sexy, fun, and funky. Haute hippie and the classic bohemian aesthetic were strong inspirations in this collection (bucking the fall shows' general trend toward cool refinement) which reflected the passionate, free-thinking, rock €˜n€™ roll mindset that dominated the 60€™s and 70€™s (so I've heard).

    NYFW Accessories: Carolina Herrera's Hats Are For the Birds

    It's surprising to me that more designers don't take advantage of Fall Fashion Week to spread their wings on some daring headgear! So far this year, Carolina Herrera's collection has done the most with chic chapeaus. Pairing wools and corduroys in a variety of rich earth tones with spikes or long swooping tails made of bird feathers, Herrera's hats were the perfect topping to her layered fall outfits. Check out my slideshow of my favorites from her Fall 2008 collection!
