    New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2010: Ralph Lauren

    This season, Ralph Lauren was back with the classically preppy looks we've come to expect from the designer (variations on the blazer, lust-worthy dresses), but included quite a few unexpectedly refreshing ones as well. I loved how many ensembles erred on the side of masculinity- for example, one was comprised of boyfriend jeans and a menswear-inspired shirt, then topped off with a blazer, beret, and chunky belt, only to be offset by a pair of glistening t-strap heels. Combined with natural-looking makeup and unfussy hair, each look was all the more believable. Quirky, tattered denim overalls were about as surprising to see as the head to toe denim look, but the "fresh from the farm" approach added a relaxed vibe to the typically put-together show. Crisp white layers were followed by sheer separates in cool blues, and a particularly striking iridescent floor-length shirt dress was just the thing to finish off a collection perfect for achieving that chic but not overly calculated country club look.

    Look At The Designer Goodies I Found At Marshalls And TJMaxx!

    Who wouldn't like to have a closet full of designer brands to choose from? I know I would! Even if you don't have a million dollars to spend, you can still look like a million bucks! I've always known about Marshalls and TJ Maxx... who doesn't? I know that they sell clothes for a low, low price. One can find many current trends at these discount department stores, but usually from brands that no-one has heard of, and even if the trend is right, the material and construction make you wonder if you should have just gone to Forever 21 instead. Recently, I made a stop at both Marshalls and TJ Maxx and was amazed at the selection of designer brands and high-quality apparel and accessories for a fraction of the price! BCBG, Theory, Tahari, Ralph Lauren... did I make a wrong turn and end up at Nordstrom? Nope! Current fashions and must-have basics divided into sections by designer were what greeted me and I happily replied. Ready to get some great summer-to-fall pieces? Or just looking to add a few designer brand garments to your wardrobe repertoire? Count on Marshalls and TJ Maxx to help you look and feel like you just went on a Saks shopping spree, but still have money left in your purse! Check out the slideshow to see what I found!

    Bright-Rimmed Sunglasses Put A Summery Spin On Shades

    You may think you've got it covered in the sunglasses arena with your trusty rimless aviators and black wayfarers that you switch off depending on your mood and outfit. However, while that 90's comeback fad of blinding neon clothing slowly fades out this summer, bold colors are finding a new outlet -- your shades! This season's sunglasses are all about bright frames and rims, and with all the brands jumping on this technicolor trend (high-end and super-affordable alike!), you're bound to find yourself getting bored with your tortoise shell shields fast. Go for designer pair in your favorite or most wearable color, or collect a whole rainbow's worth of shades to go with any outfit! They're not only a great way to draw attention and exude personality even while hiding behind your glasses, but they're also a surefire way to get into the poolside mood, pronto! Check out the slideshow to see a variety of some vivid frames!

    While the oft-quoted saying "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" is usually used more in sarcasm, I like to think that it's true in fashion. After all, we don't live in isolated bubbles, so we get our fashion inspiration everywhere from the runways to the streets. Celebrity style is one thing -- who wouldn't want to take a look at their amazing, albeit expensive closets-- but StyleDiary is a great place to see what real people are wearing all around the world! From Manila, Stylediarist lloydazindy has been chronicling her style since 2005. I admired one of her latest outfits which is perfect for a casual office setting or hanging out in a park. With a simple varsity cardigan and totally of-the-moment liberty floral print skirt, lloydazindy takes preppy chic to another level. Get her look by clicking the slideshow and be sure to follow lloydazindy on Stylediary!

    Do Dad A Favor This Father's Day With Stress-Free Clothing Gifts

    We all know that generally speaking, men hate shopping. Although it would probably be a useful excuse to say that your addictive shopaholic nature comes from fierce bargain-hunting genes from both your parents, realistically your dad would probably rather be watching TV than trying on clothes in the dressing room. So while shopping-savvy gals like you or your mom might be insulted by seemingly obvious or "no-brainer" gifts like dress shirts or tube socks, you might be surprised to find out that when your dad says he needs practical gifts like clothes, he really means it. Forget that expensive newfangled GPS ('cause he'll never even read the directions to assemble it anyway) and think of all the time, boredom, and moaning and groaning you'll spare your dad by going out and doing his clothing shopping for him. By sticking to practical yet stylish gifts like a lightweight zip-up jacket, button-down striped shirts and sleek ties (after all, nothing says Father's Day like ties!), you'll be playing it safe in a good way by sticking to things you know Dad will actually wear and get good use out of. Check the slideshow for some easy-to-buy clothing picks that will keep your dad dressed to impress without him having to set foot in the hellish mall!
