Teen Spirit...

The 90's are back in full effect...designers such as

Proenza Schouler, Jason Wu,

and Rag & Bone are embracing the grunge era.

It's all about plaid, baby-doll dresses, messy hair, and holy jeans.

Think Courtney Love, Liv Tyler in Empire Records,

or Shirley Manson.

Dig out and dust off your Doc Martens your gonna want them!!

90's Inspiration

Sunday, October 24, 2010

Fashion designers might have had one women in mind during the stages of creating their fall collections. While skimming threw the look books of designers such as Christian Dior, Ralph Lauren, and Vanessa Bruno etc... The same image kept coming to mind... Stevie Nicks. Miss Nicks was such a trend setter with her Gothic prairie dresses and gypsy platforms... it's no wonder the songstress has inspired some of this falls hottest collections.

Ring the BELL...Denim goes wide again.

Once again fashion has turned the corner on denim. Wide legs, trousers, super flares, and bell bottoms are definitely the new fashion-forward trend. Don't throw away your skinny jeans just yet... these are just a few more options for you to choose from when picking a outfit. We will see more of this silhouette come spring.

Forever 21 Fab Bell Bottom Jeans $14.50

Brocade!

I am completely obsessed with Brocade this Fall.

It has such a richness to it...and when I see it on the runway... it immediately tells me a story. It feels vintage and royal...yet when styled correctly can take on a more rugged and edgy appearance. I have fallen in love with this brocade jacket from Balmain Fall 2010.

bebe.com has a coat similar to this one at a much more reasonable price.

$279.00
