Khakis are such a big trend this Fall, and Olivia Palermo pairs it perfectly with a black jacket, military boots and glamorous golden jewels. Check it out:

Get the Look: Sarah Jessica Parker, Olivia Palermo and Serena Van Der Woodsen

I know I'm always all about "how we shouldn't copy other people's style", but some women are true inspiration to me and I really enjoy making these kind of sets on Polyvore so why not share it with you? These 3 style queens have a very distinct sense of style which I admire. Sarah Jessica Parker (Check out the SJP tribute post here:http://fashionistalooks.blogspot.com/2010/05/style-inspiration-sarah-jessica-parker.html) : Oh my god, what should I say? She and Carrie are so alike. She makes it hard to tell the one from the other! Olivia Palermo (Check out the Olivia tribute post here: http://fashionistalooks.blogspot.com/2010/04/style-inspiration-olivia-palermo.html: I think her style is flawless, and what's most impressive, is that she has established her own style without any stylist's interference and last but not least, Serena Van Der Woodsen: Ok, I know the styling genius behind her is Eric Daman, but I should give her credit for her glorious body, which makes everything that she wears look good.

And I don't know where I've been
and I don't know what I'm into
and I don't know what I've done to me

and as I watch you disappear into the ground
my one mistake was that I never let you down

so I'll waste my time
and I'll burn my mind
I'm Miss Nothing
I'm Miss Everything

Fall '10 Trends - Sweater dressing

Ok so this trend is by far one of my favorites this season. Sweaters are ideal for winter: warm, soft, comfortable, wearable and classy. Even though most of the times they kind of have a vintage feel, they can also be futuristic as well, like the striped ones in Balenciaga. Most people can consider them casual, but Marc Jacobs proved them wrong, by topping a long sequined skirt (or gown?) with a matching bright yellow long-sleeved sweater.

Wake me up when September ends..

Now that summer is gone and we're going through this awkward transition from summer to Fall that is called September, it feels kinda weird. We don't know what to wear, 'cause it's not exactly summer, but it's definitely not winter yet. And I'm sorry, I don't have any answer to that :P Instead, I made a set on Polyvore (god, I love that website) based on what I would like to have in my closet this Fall-Winter.


Btw, did you hear the exciting news? H&M's next big collaboration is with Lanvin (Alber Elbaz). These news are the best news I've hear in a lot of time.


What are your picks for this winter? If you create sets on Polyvore like me, I'd be glad if you could send me a link on the comments below to check it out!
