LBD

The little black dress or "LBD" has been around for ages and is considered one of the chicest pieces that one can possess.  It is a very versatile wardrobe essential and one that can easily transition from day to night. Belt it and pair with a simple yet chic tote and low sandals during the day for relaxed elegance. At night, turn the look completely around by simply stacking up on skinny rings, using a dramatic shade of lipstick and adding a stylish  pair of sandals.

Pre Fall 2012: Red Orange

A notorious trend at the Pre Fall shows was without a doubt: Red-Orange. Designers went mad for the look and sent at least two models down the runway donning the the colors. Let's wait for the other shows and see who else adopts the trend. Do you love it yet?

Cameos

Cameo jewelry is definitely an important trend at the moment. Celebrities and editors are going nuts over modern day takes on these pieces. This type of jewelry originated in Greece and Rome but was mostly popularized during the Victorian era. There are lots of beautiful items to choose from in this post. Have fun!

Loving Balmain

I just love this brand. Pierre Balmain founded his Parisian fashion powerhouse in 1945, and dressed such style icons as Ava Gardner and Brigitte Bardot. And after his death in 1982, a slew of designers including Oscar de la Renta took the helm, and the label is now under the creative leadership of Christophe Decarnin. The master of tough luxe, Balmain is the cool girl's destination for ornately embellished outerwear and spray-on leather pants.

Here are some pictures from Balmain's Fall 2011 Ready-To-Wear collection in Milan.

2011 SAG Awards Worst Dressed

Here are my picks for the worst dresses at the 2011 SAG Awards.

Eva Longoria usually hits the ball out the park, but not in this dress. The dress was ill-fitted, and the waistline was too low.  

Hailee Steinfeld in Prada. Love the colours, but that's about it.

January Jones in Carolina Herrera. No words for this one.

Jennifer Lawrence in Oscar de la Renta. I think the belt was too harsh against the hot-pink dress.

Kim Kardashian in this Grecian style gown. There are sooo many things wrong with this look, I don't know where to start. It's not at all flattering.

Melissa Leo...too much shine.

I love Natalie Portman, but this dress just isn't right for her and her cute baby bump. It looked even worse on TV.

Nicole Kidman in Nina Ricci.
