Editor’s Pick: I Found My Colorful Low Heel Sandals At Last!

I’m fiercely on the hunt for summer wardrobe items and trust me when I say, it has been ridiculously hard to find the perfect colorful low heel. I’ve scoured high and low, everywhere offline and online in pursuit but to no true avail. The gorgeous teal Miu Miu strappy flat wedges on way sale at Barneys this past weekend couldn’t be had and now the fervor is only worse. It had me going on full blast this morning hitting every possible shoe-carrying website and alas, found a pair to love, plus four other that are totally divine. Here’s a SLIDESHOW of the goodies.

Street Style Steal: How To Get Her “Juno” Look!

If you can reinvent something in your closet, you’re a star. That’s what made me take a double take on this New York fashionista’s chic outfit. Not only does she look super fashionable and super cool, she’s reviving the season’s blousy top and straight leg jeans, plus reworking flip flops and winter’s knit beret. Envious? Don’t be. You can do the same with my SLIDESHOW of the five tricks and tools she used to get a fresh new look.

Your Style: Taking Magazine Looks Into the Everyday

It’s one thing to read magazines, and another to take what’s in them and make it wearable for the street. The outfits in Vogue and People might look slick and sophisticated on paper, but getting in and out of a car or or trying to head to class in them is a whole other story. Luckily there are a few hipsters out there who know how to take an editorial look and bring it down to street level. That’s what stopped me in my tracks when I first saw Stylediarist Missinterpret. Ten great looks that could be right out of Lucky, with everyday wearability. Here’s a SLIDESHOW of my favorites!

Street Style Steal: Get This NY Fashionista’s Easy-Peasy Look!

Fashion people know that there are certain cities where locals just breathe style, the type of places that other fashionistas flock to in hopes that it might rub off on them (or at least land them the perfect find). New York is one of these kind of places, where even the little kids dress cool and next year’s trends whisk by left and right.  It’s where we spotted today’s Perfect Stranger, who takes five of the most basic things and whips up a snacky style combination. Not only does it look super cool, but it’s also very easy to do! Check out my SLIDESHOW to see how to make it happen.

Dressing Room Diary: Finding The Perfect Jeans

Shopping for jeans is not easy. Go beyond the big retail brands and you’ve got more than three dozen smaller names to test out and try to size, so much that buying a single pair of jeans can take hours. Let’s not even talk about the fact that on top of this, more than half of the lines out there cost upwards of a few hundred dollars.  For that price, it’s almost as if denim designers should have somebody try it all on for us and tell us what to buy and what to avoid.  Oh wait, that’s what I’ve done! After trying (and trying) dozens of jeans, here’s a SLIDESHOW of my five favorites!

Editor’s Pick: 5 YSL Creations That Will Never Die

It shouldn’t come as a surprise that designer Yves Saint Laurent is has been coined one of most influential figures in fashion. He’s practically been a legend since he first took over the Dior house in 1957, to the day he launched his own line, Yves Saint Laurent, in 1962. His signature eye for cut and tailoring helped redefine the tuxedo suit for women and he’s notorious for mixing masculinity and fantasy into evening and ready to wear. With his passing this weekend, at age 71, fashionistas everywhere are mourning the loss and paying homage to his stamp on fashion. Here’s a SLIDESHOW of my five favorite YSL pieces in honor of the master.

Street Steal: Get This Quirky Chick’s West Coast Vibe

While trends and styles may vary from place to place, fashion does have one universal vibe: Cool. It doesn’t matter where you go or what you do, from New York to New Zealand, Dallas to Dubai, hipster’s a global term that works for all shapes, all people. It was this very thing that stopped me in my tracks at a low-key party in Los Angeles not long ago, an outfit so cool and fashionable, I had to share it with others. It’s colorful, casual, chic and super stylish. Here’s a SLIDESHOW of the five pieces to get the look!

Timeless Stylediarist Puts the Cool in Classic

Trendy and classic are like two sisters in the fashion world. One’s kind of a little wild, goes out on a limb, and constantly changes her mind every season, the other is sturdy and stable, the kind of gal you can count on for years. Both are cool in their own way, but there’s nothing quite like a good, clean classic. That’s why I am crazy about Stylediarist Cloudylady’s look book. It’s full of cool, timeless items. Here’s a SLIDESHOW of my ten favorite looks.

Who She Is: Cloudylady
Her Look: Cool classic

Perfect Stranger: Knock Off This Chic L.A. Chick’s Outfit!

I have such a crush on this outfit. Maybe it’s the cool, casual but still-sort-of party-ready feel of it, or the fact that it works in such a simple color combination. It could be the cool Geren Ford tank, or the way she worked it with a black tank under and a vintage belt. It’s the kind of chic, laid back-cool kind of look that’s cropping up everywhere around Los Angeles at the moment. Whatever. I love it, and I’ve hunted down the items so we can all create it at home! Here’s a SLIDESHOW of the five pieces to get the job done!

Street Trend: Trouser Pants Are Back!

After what appeared to be eons of lounge pants and jeans, fashion has finally thrown us a stylish bone with by bringing hipster back to trouser pants, and like the super chic, super cool cats they are, Stylediarists are all over it. From Canada to France to England and the good old US of A, they’re pairing them with everything, like pretty tops and crisp, clean basics. The best part is that trousers are a fashion item that never really goes out of style, making it the perfect spring update you can love for years. Get out, get a pair and then check out my SLIDESHOW of ten ways to wear them!

Like any other true, red-blooded fashionista, I shop anywhere. High end, low end, designer, inexpensive, trendy, classic, basic, elaborate.

Just the tiniest appearance of it in an outfit turns heads. That’s why I stopped in my tracks at the sight of Stylediarist Fashionisticdork’s look book. Ten outfits that work the color yellow. It’s like sunshine on your computer.
