Trend Alert: Graphic Black and White
Sensing some déjà vu? You’re not wrong! If the runways at New York Fashion Week are any indication, last spring’s graphic black and white trend will be continuing on through next year, meaning that you can indulge in monochrome madness all fall and winter long. The combo proves that you need no color at all to make a bold statement – just contrast.
Steal her Style: Olivia Palermo Breaks the Rules
Olivia flawlessly breaks the “No white after Labor Day” rule while attending the Rachel Zoe fashion show in New York recently.
Ralph Lauren Spring 2014 Collection: Hero Worship
Ralph Lauren’s Spring 2014 show kicked off with a sporty mood and a stark palette. Flirty skirt suits and adorable peplum dresses came only in perfectly coordinated combinations of bright white and black-as-can-be black.

Dolce & Gabbana Python Structured Bag: Picture Perfect Frame
With Fashion Week coming to an end, I feel like treating myself! This snakeskin charmer has me under its spell, and I have no plans to fight the feeling. Not all vintage style bags are this wearable. I’ll buy vintage that sit in my closet just to make me happy, but they would never work on the average day.

Michael Kors Spring 2014 Collection: The American Dream
Nobody does glamorous all-American ease like Michael Kors. Not that looking as good as the glowy models who poured down his Spring 2014 runway (for a hefty 56 looks in total) is easy, but Kors sure makes it look impossibly effortless. And isn’t that what glamour is all about? This year, he had me at the first burst of light and airy fur. Yes, fur.
