    Vintage Fashionistas Cheer For Pink And Orange!

    You don't need to be a genius to determine that I am not a big fan of pink, based on a quick peek into my closet. Or orange, for that matter. So it's hard for me to explain why I squeal with delight when I see these two colors together. I guess sometimes what seems like two fashion wrongs can actually make a big fashion right! And lots of folks agree. Like Jonathan Adler, for instance, who believes there's no better way to banish the blues than with this bright color combination. Or Alexander Girard and so many other designers in the 1960s who married these two tangy shades in home decor and advertising as well as in fashion. Today's slideshow features some outstanding vintage examples of this zesty color pairing, which is like putting on an instant good mood (or enjoying a nice big scoop of rainbow sherbet). Who can possibly stay dreary while wearing something this bright and cheery? Click the slideshow to get inspired!

    Get Vampire Diaries' Actress Kayla Ewell's Hot Pink Party Look!

    "Vampire Diaries" actress Kayla Ewell isn't afraid to rock hot pink on the red carpet. The dress she donned at a special screening of "The Fantastic Mr. Fox" at the 2009 AFI Fest Opening Night Gala is proof that you can wear neons and metallics in the same outfit without looking like you're headed to a rave. The dress (which I am unfortunately unable to identify, despite a frantic Google search) was part pink, part pared-down, thus providing an ideal backdrop for her stunning accessory of choice: a pile of knotted, dangling silver chains. Black nail polish and a silver clutch added the party-perfect finishing touches. The main point to remember in making this look work is to keep a balance- the metallic part of the dress was on the matte side, while the necklace brought a flashy element.

    Vintage Fashionistas Are Thinking Pink in October

    For more than 20 years, October has been internationally known as Breast Cancer Month. It's a time for people, organizations and businesses to rally together to raise money for this cause, without forgetting, of course, that breast cancer strikes millions of men and women each year, and not just in October. The color pink was selected as a symbol for this fight. Why? Because while the vulnerability of this color represents the fear, pain, uncertainty and loss felt by those struck by breast cancer, pink's brightness also symbolizes the hope and strength found in each victim's personal fight. And while you might choose to don the now-famous pink ribbon to show your support this month, you might choose to go all out in all pink, too. If that's the case, click the slideshow for a selection of fabulous vintage finds in all some beautiful shades of pink.

    Fashion Week London: Luella Bartley Spring 2010 Ready to Wear ...

    Luella Bartley recently presented her Spring 2010 Ready to Wear Collection at London Fashion Week. Her new collection goes dressier and less cheeky than we've come to expect from Bartley. It would be easy to imagine the late Jackie Kennedy wearing these pieces in 1965. Silhouettes were very feminine, with princess seams, pinched waists, and padded hips. She also showed several summer weight car coats in very ladylike "trapeze" shapes in happy, gorgeous colors, like a not-too-baby blue and a wonderful lipstick-y red. Other pieces included puffy dresses with velvet polka dots, sweetheart necklines, and Peter Pan collars. Bartley's recent collections have been far more precious with an abundance of frilly touches like dainty flower prints, ribbons, and tulle. By comparison, the latest collection is much more dressed up, despite the sugar pinks and lemon yellows. Even the one or two dresses with tulle trim appeared more sophisticated than one might expect from a designer who does things in an unapologetically girly way. To see the collection, click over to our friends at Couture In The City!
