Loving Rachel Roy

Thursday, October 15th, 2009

Rachel Roy creates high priced pieces but also has a lot of affordable items as well! She makes beautiful clothes and accessories. Many of them have unique touches that give the piece a bit of an edge, like using safety pins in her jewelry design and attaching necklaces to her tees.

RACHEL Rachel Roy for Macy’s is fantastic! I’ve chosen three dresses for under $110. The best deal is a brushstroke print dress on sale for $59.40. My favorite (also the most expensive at $109) is the black mini. The stud details and ruched hem are fantastic. The plum sweater dress is perfect for the season and costs $99.

How To Wear Leggings

Saturday, September 19th, 2009

Leggings will continue to be popular into the fall season. However, you should stick to leggings that come to the ankle. Avoid leggings that stop mid-calf and especially those that cut you off at the knee. Leggings are a great way to make your shorter dresses wearable through fall as demonstrated by Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Alba and Jamie-Lynn Sigler. Because they are form fitting, they also look great with big sweaters and billow tops.

If you don’t have leggings yet, I’ve found a few worth trying. Express has a pair for $24.50 and they come in 10 different colors, including the neon pink shown below…an unexpectedly popular color for fall. For a touch of the ’80s, get American Apparel’s pair for $32 in sea blue (below), black, slate or deep pink. Liquid latex has been seen on Nicky Hilton, Miley Cyrus, the Olsen twins, Rihanna…and the list goes on. Try Liquid Leggings from Victoria’s Secret for a similar look at only $42.50.
